Most recently, I've been creeped out by flies! I have killed a couple of large flies in my house and I'd never seen any that looked quite like them, so I Googled them. Mistake! I didn't want to know that!

This is almost exactly what they looked like. I found out they are called flesh flies and live off of corpses. So creepy! I have no corpse of any type in or around my home that I am aware of.

I am creeped by flies as well. Or is it Flys? Just keep them away. Buzzin at a window till they die.. o god. I try to help them when I can..

Did you click on the spoiler button?
(Some people have a phobia of spiders and because it was so big, I thought I would chuck it behind a spoiler so only those that want to see it, will.)
I ain't one of them there phobics, in fact I dig me some spiders, I mean they chow on buggers that do creep me out...oh but jeez the joint I'm stayin' in has seriously got some spiders, and some muchos BIG spiders!
But now here's a little sumpin'sumpin' for those eight leg haters to think about...I dares ya's:rolleyes:
Early this wee morn I was sittin' on the can, looked down by my feet and saw a hairy little number, spider ' bout the size of a dime maybe, so I shooshed it, you know as people that don't hate spiders will do, not jumped up screaming like a maniac while bashing said spider with the toilet they just ripped outta the floor for sucha spider bashin' occasion...you guyz knowz what I mean, doncha's?
Anyway, so shooshin' is just started, when ~whoooosh~~~, here comes about a million billion gazzillon wee teeny tiny baby spiders spreading out like spilt baby spider whatever, including over my foot and up my nekid leg...yeah ain't gonna put tbat bebind a spoiler, are ya:biggrin2:?
Yup that was not just a tad creepy, 'specially at five a.m. and without my first coffee..was on a rug, so luckily I hadn't started my, um, bidness, and was able to scoop the little rug up and get it chucked out the front door (and without droppin' me drawers I might add:eagerness:), I mean gee whiz I likes me some spiders and all, butt.........
