It’s always such a special feeling to be roused from your slumbers by the gentle pitty-pat of bugfeet on your face.

Aaggghh! That would send me into an hysterical screaming fit for about an hour. Egads!

Bugfeet

Eek - your new house is haunted! After you find some way to drive off the little beasts, maybe you can use your post for the first line of a drabble.

When I first moved to Texas, I was driven out of my first apartment by a dive-bombing giant flying roach. After emptying a whole can of Raid into the place, I spent what seems in memory most of the night standing the parking lot waiting for it to be safe to enter. I was young and foolish then and trust you to think of something less dramatic.

Bugs don't bother me that much. The mouse that ran across my forehead in my old apartment... yeah, that kind of had me awake and swearing vociferously for a while...

I haven't seen but a few of the little visitors, not two of which have matched so far, and they ain't cocker-roaches, or I'd be a lot more vociferous. And the bug spray would probably kill me, whereas the bugs is just a nuisance. A squishy nuisance to be sure, but livable.

Relieved. Happy squishing.

That must have been a very special experience, :)

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

Not nearly special enough.

Eeeeek!The last time a spider ran over my neck in the middle of the night, I lost a year of my life.

*offers you a fly flap*

Ick! *demonstrates patented "snatch and throw" method, which unfortunately I once applied to the tail of my cat...oops*

[luv2hobbits.livejournal.com]

icky! I was awoken to the dog slobber on my face from a constantly licking dog. And yesterday by a spider, so wonderfully taking a chunk out of my foot.

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

A fly flap? (She wonders if that's what she'd call a flyswatter. It's very descriptive if it is.)

I have, alas, graduated from fright to, "oh, &^%$# not again!"

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

If I'd ever tried that on my cat he'd have shredded me.

On the other hand, when I had a cat, nothing lived long enough to challenge his place of honor on top my sleeping form anyway.

Must train the dog. Eat the SPIDERS. Eat the SPIDERS...

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

One of these?

[mariole.livejournal.com]

My cat got a moth for me last night. *pets * brave hunter* But generally he's pretty live and let live, about bugs anyway.

[lame-pegasus.livejournal.com]

It's a flyswatter. &^%$# online-dictionary!!!

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

Yes, but what a lovely way to come up with a "hobbity" term to sneak into a story. A flap on a stick to chase flies with!

I'll admit to a certain fascination with what happens when words are translated literally piece for piece instead of for the whole meaning. I was told once that the Icelandic word for "lawn mower" means "thing you push to make it cut the grass shorter"... I don't know how true that is, but it's a great story!

Two Words...

Oh! GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fainting woudl be useful. Then you could convince yourself when you woke up that it had all been a dream...

[luv2hobbits.livejournal.com]

EAT SPIDERS! *chants*
*dog shakes head and looks away in shame*
She already eats the bees...and that's a mistake... the poor thing's lips are swollen from eating so many....
*she doesn't learn not to eat them after GETTING STUNG MORE THAN I CAN COUNT TIMES*

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

I'm a dog! I've only got three braincells, and they're busy just now.

[luv2hobbits.livejournal.com]

Cat person.











THAT IS NOT TRUE!! SHE IS NOT DUMB! SHE SHAKES HANDS, OPENS DOORS, WAVES BYE, UNDERSTANDS WORDS, PLAYS CROQUETTE, PLAYS SOCCER, PLAYS FOOTBALL, AND MORE.

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

Heheheheheheh.

Actually I like dogs too. But they are not bright bunnies, no matter how many tricks they know. I've never met one yet who learned a thing by eating a bee. Heck, the dog I had when I was a kid never learned better than not to try to eat soap bubbles, and he used to get the funniest expression when he tasted the soap!

[luv2hobbits.livejournal.com]

I think dogs are smart, and can learn.
That depends on what breed it is actually.
But I think that she has also learned, despite the fact that they sting her, that they taste like honey!
Hi...I...lowered my cholesterol. *hint honeynutcheerios commercial*
Sorry I was so gruff before, I'm just really tired from going back and forth and back and forth over the last year.
