anecdotes.
  • bug & shirt. last night i was sitting on the couch, directly under the picture that sheltered the spider i had warily been watching earlier in the afternoon. and i just knew that spider dropped into my shirt cause i felt something fall in and crawl down my spine. and then i felt it again. and even though JP checked and assured me there was no eight-legged monster in my shirt, i felt crawly things on my skin all night.
  • bug & shirt--reprise. ten minutes ago i was sitting on my bed minding my own business surfing the web when i felt something crawl down my neck. i immediately thought of my spider and decided i must be imagining things again. until i felt it crawling on my chest and brushed my chest and felt a bump. which fell into my shirt. when i went in after it, i found a little beetle crawling around. and i'm again feeling crawly things.
  • curses. so today, just as i was making a most eloquent point during sunday school, i swore. i said damn. although i wasn't exactly swearing--it was the hypothetical sower in my example who swore; i just reported his hypothetical reaction to a stone in his field. and then i realized what i had done and blushed while laughing about it. perhaps this will mitigate my asset-hood in the ward. but i doubt it, since the man next to me found it 'endearing.'

  1. I have had a spider down my shirt so I know the feeling! It's gross! It was when I was hugely pregnant with Brie and the spider crawled down my chest and was at my belly by the time I got it, YUCK.
