I had decided not to post today because I’m just too exhausted and have no brain power to write. BUT that all changed about 30 minutes ago when I discovered the most disturbing of all God’s creatures. Which, I’m still not totally convinced it isn’t a spawn of the Devil….
A client at the place in which I work had mentioned seeing a “Potato Bug” last night. I was pretty sure no such thing exists because I’ve never heard of it before in my life. So to prove that I was right (as I normally am) I did what we all do and Googled it. Now, I hope you have all relieved your bladders and finished lunch because you will never believe what I found. Not only do they exist but they look like this:
THAT does NOT look like any potato bug I’ve ever seen!! That little thing is evil! And who is brave enough to hold it!!

I’ve never seen of nor heard of these things. This one must’ve been on steroids. Or crack.

Interesting. I never saw one or heard of one before either. It is sort of cute though..

Cute?!?? LOL They bite! I was reading someone’s comment who said that it clamped down on his wife’s finger and wouldn’t let go. I’d have to sacrifice a finger if it were me…I wouldn’t give a damn…cut the finger off to save myself!

Do any bugs look fairly good? LOL That made me giggle. This one looks like a deformed midget alien child….if there was such a thing, this is what it would look like!

Um, guess I didn’t think that comment out all that well. Having a right giggle here now. No, you are right, no bugs look good!

Actually I do have a fondness for those Cicada bugs. I wouldn’t necessarily call them cute but they remind me of little birds.

Oh, my goodness!! What an eerie looking creature. Never seen anything like that ever. What we called potato bugs when I was growing up looked nothing like that. That is a pretty good sized bug too. I would not want to have crawling around on me. 🙂

If I saw something like that in my hotel room, they would have to 1. change my sheets and 2. move me to another hotel…where there is one there is several…
