I woke up the other morning to a rain storm which hardly EVER happens here in the desert and I thought it would be fun to go outside and place my feet on wet sidewalk. Upon opening my door I saw a small animal under one of our drains and decided to check it out. When I got closer and saw the antena and spindly feet, I realized nay it wasn't an animal but some sort of SICK bug. I couldn't belive how big it was. And no I have no idea what the heck it is either. Just stay out of my house.
I decided to take a picture with Jaitz to get some perspective of how big it was and then realized that was stupid. However, I did get a great side glance from Jaitz.
Here is a better perspective. I grabbed my shoe (women's size eight) and plopped it by the beastly bug.
Then I promptly kicked it into the bushes with said shoe. I was not going to step on it because who knows what kind of mess I would have been left with. I thought it was dead but it's legs started twitching so I just figured I'd let nature take its course without me getting involved.
