Gaahhh, can you sew up a belly button?

Or maybe stuff a cork in it or something?

I shifted some garden waste earlier and I was annoyed but not worried by a very itchy waistband.
I had tree bits everywhere but we were burning it all & would only get more scratchy bits on me so I left it. This was my first mistake.

I got in the bath and my belly button was still stabby and itchy, so I armed my self with tweezers to try and get a splinter out.

It was not a splinter.
It was a fecking huge bug of unknown species, at least dog sized, probably carnivorous. I would be prepared to swear I saw fangs.

It obviously saw my weaponry and made a dash for it...down my leg
It's gone now but I don't know where...I can feel it watching me. It could swim, nowhere is safe.

What if waits unti I'm asleep and tries to eat my face? What if it liked my belly button and decides to get back in ?

Oh! Well then, I suppose it's totally worth 48 hours of horror for a thread in classics.

There are ants now.
I'm wondering if there's a Harry Potter/Aragog thing going on. It would explain a lot but would mean there is a house sized something somewhere.

I'm starting to think it's so quiet because it's gone the ants are just a coincidence.

when she's entombed in that giant spider web in the loft, hands bound, only her nose and mouth left clear for food and air?

Listen to Sir David - he talks a lot of sense. You need to prepare your defences for when it comes back. If you are not going to plug your orifices with melted cheese, then you need another strategy. Hurry, you don't have much time ........

WafflyVersatile · 16/06/2013 19:44

I'm with you, Totally. I'm your friend. I'm never going to leave.

Maybe you could infest it with exotic bum worm?

Waffly - Ha, no. I can see your double bluff for what it is.
Are you in the roof? It's the only place I haven't checked. Apart from under the floorboards...
Anyway things are not the same as they were yesterday. Persecution complexes are only a problem if you aren't actually being persecuted...by giant, terrible, clicky, hissing, creeping nightmares.

It'sOkay - why would you do that? Why? I can feel it's legs on me

Morgause - I cannot hear you. You are in the cupboard of shame.

I have a massive dose of the willies. It's nowhere near as fun as it sounds.
Oh God David Attenborough is on tv talking about bugs, and I quote 'If you aren't able to defend yourself, you won't survive' Why Sir David, why?! The one man you'd think you could turn to in this situation.

I wonder if it laid any eggs before it was shamefully evicted.

WafflyVersatile · 16/06/2013 19:17

Totally, have you considered that you might have a teeny tiny, weeny little persecution complex?

ItsOkayItsJustMyBreath · 16/06/2013 18:55

It's that thing from the film isn't it? Keep an eye on the walls, it can live within them and scuttle around without you knowing
