For those of you who also live in the dirty dirty, remember to check your shoes before you put them on, and shake out your laundry. The Mc found this little dude chillin’ at the foot of the bed last night when he came home from work. The bedroom is on the 2nd floor so I’m really curious as to how he got there/what he hitched a ride in.
No thank you very much.

Shortly after first moving to GA, I was walking into my bedroom buck naked (post shower, enjoy the mental image) and as I went to take a step, I noticed something brown on the ground (that rhymes if you read it out loud). I was able to move my foot before putting it down and saw I was about to step square on that same guy you have pictured above. That freaked my shit out.
True story.

We find those little buggers from time to time in our digs, too. The cats love them!

Holy crap.
Man, do I feel like an idiot complaining about a few black ants over my way.
This totally trumps that.
I’ll take tiny black ants over scorpions for $500, Alex.

This has got to be an OTP problem.

Amen, The Jesus…ours look like crawfish.
But, once indoors, scary and seriously freaky no matter the size.
PS…Yet again, Amber falls down on the job. Nemo grabs ‘em and needs floss afterward. (Of course Jack sleeps through the whole thing…)

wow. I thought those things were only in deserts. I wonder if we have them here in Memphis. I better start checking my shoes.

You’re probably safe Tulio. I lived in Memphis for 13 years and never saw a scorpion till I moved to Atlanta.
