All I can say is...euw

So the other week, Ken and I fell asleep on the couch. I woke up around 11 pm and turned off the tv, yawned, stretched, and noticed something crawling on the ceiling above Ken's head!! I woke him up and we got our black light. He got a broom handle and knocked it off the ceiling and this is what the evil thing looks like in black light:



Of course he got the boys involved and they decided to play with it a while before its demise...they like to tickle the evil creature's back, trying to get it to sting itself. Why oh why were these things created???

For this post, I'm grateful for black lights to be able to spot these things before they do any damage. I'm grateful for a husband and sons who will get rid of them when they are spotted. I'm grateful that we've lived in Arizona for 9 years, 7 of those years in this very house, before seeing these horrible, ugly things! And I'd be ever so grateful if I never, ever had one in my house again!

When we go to Texas I see them. Once I saw one in their kitchen sink. I have a picture on my facebook. Eww.
