Book Worms???

Nope, I don't care if you like to read or not. So if you were going to a.) tell me I was gay for asking who liked to read; or b.) talk about how well-read you are; ...either leave or read my story.

A couple hours ago, 2 AM was rolling around. I am having an insomnia night-- and beyond 2 AM there is never much to do other than read. I left the book I was currently reading at someone's house. So I mosey around looking for a book. Find one, an old favorite. Make some tea. March up to my room. Put on some Lou Reed. Dim the lights. Get comfy in my bed. Open up my book. Flip to the foreword (got nothing but love for Walter Kronkite) As I start reading I notice... there is a bunch of BUGS on my stomach. I don't like bugs. HOP out of bed. Scream a little bit. rid the bugs off my bed. WHERE ARE THESE COMING FROM?? So I start to rip the linens from my bed. I pick up my book and go to set it on my night stand. A BUNCH OF BUGS FLOOD OUT! I shake it out and I have about 20 little bugs on my floor. Most dead, some alive. (gross) and I open up the book... small holes and tunnels have been hallowed out and then occupied by these bugs! I check the bookself. No bug infestations, a little dusty but clean nonetheless. Check the books on the same shelves, none of them have this problem. What are these beasts!? Why do they want to live in my musty old books!?

So in conclusion- book worms do exist. I will be going through all of my books tomorrow and investigating, and RAIDing everything. I think I'm going to lay off the reading for at least tonight, at least infomercials don't physically attack you.

ahh that's not good. I can stand bugs normally (except worms, they just freak me out), but if they're in my room it freaks me out, something about them being where I live just doesn't work.

yep, i remember a few months ago i was getting ready for school in the morning, and i kept hearing this buzzing sound, so i went over to the window, and there was this huge wasp behind my blinds that just flew right out at me. I got really freaked out (I'd only had about 2 hours of sleep the night before, so I was kind of on the edge) and I screamed and woke everyone up. my family wasn't too happy with me that morning.

yuck. silverfish eh? maybe i should go through my books. i hate bees. I HATE them. one time my brother hit a nest with a stick and they attacked me and my dog and she got stung 6 times on her face and i got stung like 3 times. i don't think they were wasps but a wasp was in my house the other day, crawling towards my dog again

i've actually never been stung by a bee or wasp, but I almost died because of one. I was driving with my friend who's unbelievably scared of bees, and we're driving down a major road in pretty heavy traffic, going about 80 or 90 km/h. we're in the middle lane (3 lane road) when she swerves over to the far left lane, then swerves again into the far right, almost hitting 3 or 4 cars. I'm in the passenger seat holding on for dear life and screaming 'what the fuck are you doing!!!' she finally stays in one, and I ask her why she felt the need to risk our lives. at this point she's crouched over the wheel, looking over her shoulder frantically, and she says, 'there's a bee in the car, it was attacking me, i swear.' so I look around for this supposed bee, when I notice there's a fly on her headrest. I almost died because of a fly. needless to say I always drive now whenever we hang out.

that is pretty funny....that it was a fly, but bees in the car are scary. They are so unpredictable and pretty much just do whatever. They pull 180 degree angles so quick and head straight between your eyes. Then when you roll down all teh windows for it to fly out, it won't go anywhere.

My room is filled with bugs. They're everywhere. I don't have AC in my room so I open my windows and they crawl in through the screen. I sleep with a fan pointed on me at full blast to keep the mosquitos away. Who cares about a few tiny bugs, especially little spiders? They can't hurt you. I just don't like bees and wolf spiders.

When I was in 5th grade, there was a wolf spider the size of a coaster nesting in my bed. I didn't know this and was bitten twice in my sleep. I'm allergic to spiderbites so I got a huge rash and a lot of swelling. I found the spider and chased it out of the house.


Pull up to the club, people be suspicious, white boys, light boys flashin all them riches, im feelin good in the hood with a brand new esc, the dutch in the stashbox just rollin on ex, went from flippin keys to flippin pique collaz up, spendin dollaz smokin trees like thats whats up
