AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!
I HATE CRICKETS!!!!!
here's the poop.... last night before running off to class I had to pick up some live crickets for my son's (TA) leopard geko that he just got last week...
(now then, I've always hated crickets since childhood... reason being that in Ontario where I grew up the crickets were very big and black! and one night a large male cricket got into my bed... I stretched out and the d**n thing crawled over my feet... my dad had to come and save me... I cried and didn't go into my bed again for 2 weeks! I'dve rather slept on the floor so as to see what was lurking!)
anyway, back to last night's event!... I asked one of the young kids to get me 10 two week old crickets for the geko... he collected them and told me to meet him at the storage door... I did such and (I'll say he was either baffled by my awesome beauty or more likely that I scared the hell out of him ) in either case, he spilt the bag of crickets, towards me!! I screamed! there were crickets down my shirt!! I haven't moved that fast to rip off a shirt ever in my whole life!! (never had a good enough reason too either : the poor teen ran out of the storage room and left me to my privacy blushing .... I freaked out so badly that I ripped my vocal chords when I screamed
well if that wasn't enough, his co-worker came to see if he could help out and once I was realitively decent again... engine red and all... this other fellow helped to get a new batch of crickets for me... I took the crickets in their bag, but then he'd forgotten to write the price on the bag for me and took it back to do so... when handing me the bag again I could only take it from the bottom... and accidentally squished a cricket through the plastic bag!!!!! I shuddered and dropped the bag and had to wipe my hands on something and chose the closest thing to me which was the kids shirt sleeve!!!... these guys were trying so d**n hard not to burst out laughing and I was on the verge of crying from the experience that I had to laugh too...
my husband was mad that I wasn't back in time to have dinner and I told him what happened and the Bimp! bust into giggles instead of asking me if I was ok... rotten sob!!! ... TA heard the story and was all appologetic and very upset but said that's why he can't get the crickets... he has no idea what's in store for him soon
my girlfriend, Michelle, called me, laughed but sided with me thank heavens... I did however call L7 just to say hi and to get some sympathy ;D... like whatever , nah, he was laughing too as was I but rather sympathetic towards me... but there you have it... I've had to share it with you all as otherwise I will have another nightmare, like last nights, and I don't want that to happen ... I don't like knightmares especially of killer bugs!... so much for my winning Fear Factor
