12:30am

I am quite jumpy right now... early this morning Weston started crying, so Cody got him a new bottle, and we decided we were going to go lay on the couches till he went back asleep. I went walking around the playpen he was sleeping in (in the dark) and felt something weird crawl on my foot that was not normal... why would anything be normal on my foot besides a sock or shoe or Cody's hand? I kicked my foot but it stayed on (kinda like a suction cup)! So I rubbed my foot quickly on the carpet and kicked it towards the hallway... that's when I saw a 5-6 inch creature scurry away... EWWW!!! I did an "AH!" sound, Cody came running and asked what was wrong... I pointed and said, "that!" he thought I said "bat" as he ran to get something, and confused until I reaffirmed pointing to the creature that I said, "that!" he squished the creature, which looked like a giant centipede... even though it refused to die for quite a few squishings... yeah, I was freaked out, and now am jumping at every little thing. One of my hairs on the bed that was attached to the blanket and swiped against my leg, and my mighty imagination. This morning I looked it up on google. It's called a banded desert centipede... since I didn't have the audacity to take a picture at 12:30 in the morning, here is one I found online.

EWWW!

I was still pretty freaked afterwards, so Cody just talked and talked about other things trying to get me not to think about it... but at the end, I still did.... "What if it is poisonous?" "It could have gotten into Weston's play pen!" "How did it get in here?!?"

EWWW!!!

Cody assured me he'll get the bug guy to come and spray... guess warmer weather brings out the crawly creatures! I have just never seen a centipede so big before, let alone had one crawling on my foot!
