Bugs n Stuff

[thisearthlyride]

There's been a random monster bug in our room for the past week. Normally we would carefully capture it and put it outside "where it belongs," but neither of us have been able to. Mostly because it's freezing and we're both worried it will die if we relocate it.

What is odd is that I've seen it at least 3 times in the past week and never mentioned it to Kat. Just last night she said, "Just so you don't freak out, there's this bug in the bedroom..." So we discussed how we've both been letting it go about its business and how strange we found it that neither of us had done anything when usually there would be no question of moving the prickly-looking thing.

I admitted to actually talking to the bug and telling it that as long as it stayed away from the bed I had no problem with it hanging out in the warmth of the house. Yes, I know. I'm a super "woo woo" nutter. Deal.

This morning, I found Luka in the sink again. I managed to snap a few photos, but not before he stopped the cute lounging pose.

In other news, I'm walking around with sharpie marker on my arm. It feels silly, but I'm testing out the tattoo I want to get next and making sure I like the placement. So far so good. If all goes well, I should be able to get the tat within the next week or so. I've been craving another tattoo in the most serious way for a while now, so hoooray for new ink!

I do the same thing (sharpie/tattoo). I know pretty much what I want and where, but I've attached a qualifier to it, so I won't be getting it done right away (I'm going to do it when I sell my first big fiction novel.)

Just didn't want you to think you were the only weirdo. :)

Awww - arent critters esp cute at that age?!? :D I was visiting at a friend's house last night and she was telling me about the bug they named "George". Where ever her granddaughter is in the house (she lives there also), George is in the same room without failure. The bug has let the baby hold and pet it. And last night they told me that George has a gf (another of the same kinda bug) which they named Georgette LOL... I guess you have a George too! :P

I used to draw all over myself when I was a kid and pretend that it was a tattoo. I'd follow the veins on my leg or arm with a blue marker or connect the freckles to see what pics they'd make (No PeeWee Herman remarks, thank you!:P) Yeah, I was a little strange. Hey, testing out what a tat might look like is a good idea :) Cant wait to see pics when ya get it done :)

Now I *definitely* feel less silly! Thanks for sharing that story about George.

The tat I'm planning is just script. But I really cannot wait to get it done and will absolutely post a pic or two once I do :)

You're quite welcome :) I have been doing some research online and I reckon my friend's "George" is actually a stink bug..*giggles* Seems kinda fitting that he follows the baby around..%}

and will absolutely post a pic or two once I do :) Awesome! :)
