When Ladybugs Attack

Jan

So this morning I woke up.

I know, this is an enthralling tale already. You can hardly contain yourself, you know it. Just wait, it gets even more action-packed.

I roll out of bed and nearly kill myself with all the crap that’s on my floor that’s left over from that time I started cleaning and then stopped, thus leaving it messier than it had been before I tried to tidy.

Anyway, after finally locating my bag of clean clothes, I try to get dressed. This includes putting on my bra, right?

NO.

I go to grab my bra and there’s an effing ladybug crawling over it.

What the hell? It’s nearly February in Seattle and it’s cold.

Oh, and the other day I hopped out of the shower1 and went to put on my jeans and there was a ladybug clinging to those too. What the hell is going on with the ladybugs?

Now I’m afraid of clothing and I don’t particularly want to be a nudist. Ladybugs were cool when I was eight, but I don’t want them crawling over my boobs, quite frankly.

  1. Not literally because I would die. I’m too uncoordinated.

    I can’t believe you WOKE UP. In the morning. Wow ;)

    I randomly see ladybugs in my room every once in a while. Maybe they’re there because it’s cold outside? I dunno. I think they’re kinda cute, so I ignore them. If they’re on something I need, I move them :P

    Oh yeah, my room always gets messier whenever I try to clean it properly, too. Clearly just leaving things untidy is the solution.

    They’re better than spiders, at least. :)

    Dear God that sounds bloody freaky (the ladybugs … not the waking up … though I’ll admit that’s a bit freaky too :P). Be cautious! You could look under your bed one day and they’d be crawling all over the underside of the mattress …

    Lol at all the ladybirds! I agree with Kycoo though, ladybirds I can handle, but spiders would cause me to have a heart attack!

    Ladybugs aren’t really common here and it’s a pity that i’ve only seen a ladybug like around once or twice in my twenty years of existence in this world. Hahaha pathetic, I say.

    Ladybugs are better than cockroaches :P

    “The attack of the ladybugs”. If it wasn’t for the -bugs part it would actually sound rather cute. Maybe “ladydots” or something..
    I once killed, yes, killed, a ladybug when I accidently stepped on it. That sound has haunted me ever since :(
