If you were a bug……..

Which one would you be?

I was so incredibly busy at work today, that my mind wandered into a scary place that I don’t often like to venture.  I’m not a big fan of bugs, insects, arachnids, or any other creepy crawlies, so this question would not ordinarily occur to me, but I was, for some reason, intrigued.  What bug would I be if I could?

Spider?  Hmmmmm, kinda scary with all its crazy legs, and multiple beady eyeball things….uhhh - No.

Centipede/millipede?  Well, there are lots of legs, so I could then own lots and lots of shoes, but still no, kinda creepy and crawly, and I don’t much care for the wormy movements.

Pill bug?  I could roll into a ball and play dead at a moment’s notice, and have the exoskeleton that resembles some mechanical wonders, but still, having multiple legs, no real head, and some gross tentacle-looking things wouldn’t really do it for me.

Butterfly?  Such a wonderful, pretty, soft, girlie thing that I’m sure all 1.5 readers out there would agree that this suits me about as much as a pink tutu, ruffles, mary janes, and a huge lollipop the size of my head… okay - it just doesn’t.  Uhhh, nice try, but nope, not my style.

Hmmmm, I guess I would have to go for the stick bug.  They are so incredibly stealth - you can’t see them in the wild, and you can barely tell they’re around unless they move.  007 Stick Bug.  I could go for that - plus the predators just can’t seem to find them.  fun times….

What bug would you be?

This crazy life

Since I’m such a loser this week at posting, I thought I’d go on an all-out post spree.  Hold on to your pants boys and girls, today is going to be blog-production day.  I know you’re excited.  Try and contain yourselves….. welcome to my mind.
