At our old house, there was always construction going on around us (new subdivision) so we would see critters that would get displaced from the empty lots. Well, one time I was in the kids' bathroom (pretty small area) and I saw a roach... actually a waterbug thing (like a roach but much bigger I think - at least that's how I understand the difference). Well, this thing was between me and the doorway. The only thing in the room that I could try to kill it with was my husband's size 12 tennis shoe. I grabbed it and swung (it was on the floor) and when I did, the dang thing jumped up and came right at me. I screamed like a "girl" and hopped around like an idiot. Our poodle came running screaming and yapping thinking his mommy was being attacked. It took both of us quite a while to calm down from that trauma! |
A bee got on my leg once in the car not too long ago & I screamed bloody murder then screamed "STOP!!!!!!!! PULL OVER!!!!!!!" and got out & did some kind of a dance!? LOL By the time I get back in the car I can hardly breathe from dancing (severe asthma) and there's tears running down my face. While my fiance is in the car laughing his butt off. And poor Chloe thought her Mommy was dying - she was freaking more than I was...she didn't leave my side for at least 48 hours.
In the heat of the moment I thought Iwas gonna die, but of course, looking back it's hilarious
Oh well, I'm sure the neighbours liked the show hahaha. In fact, I was right in front of a NHL player's house & a few days later he saw me walking Chloe and said "I have to tell you, we laughed so hard when you leaped from the car to kill the bee! But don't worry, my wife would do the same" I was MORTIFIED. He's the nicest guy in the world thought (wife, too). He had seen my boyfriend the day before & asked what the heck was wrong with me?! LOL
