Just lay in bed having a last scroll through my phone and had a little itch on my neck, there was a bit of hair grouped there so I went to move it off and it was something solid
I instinctively grabbed and threw and it actually made a noise as it landed!

After a bit of a silent panic I got up to see what it was and it was a fucking woodlouse!
A mother fucking woodlouse!!
On my neck!! In my bed!! in my hair!!!!

I honestly want to take my skin off

Why!? How!?!

I’m traumatised
I’ll have to set my bed on fire
And my neck
And my hair
😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩

Bed bugs look very similar, and much more likely to be in your bed.

Also not helpful.

FuckyDuzz · 22/08/2018 01:09

Are bed bugs not tiny though?

This is not helping my itching
I’ve been trying to calm down and be sensible but I think I’m going to have to have another shower

Baby ones are. Adult ones are about the same size as a woodlouse. They are darker though.

FuckyDuzz · 22/08/2018 01:10

Oh fuck I hope we haven’t got bed bugs

One ballsy little woodlouse doesn’t seem so bad now

You think that's bad? I felt something crawling up my arm yesterday & it turned out to be one of those enormous spiders There was no point screaming for help but I did as I was home alone. Urgh.

I don't mind woodlice, they are cute. We used to call them baby armadillos when I was a kid. I wouldn't want one in my hair though.

Eurgh Drama I’d have screamed too, cheeky fucker just going for a stroll up your arm

I’ve had a shower Blush I feel much better, my skin has stopped moving and there is definitely nothing in my hair, I scrubbed so hard and had the water so hot it was a little bit painful

Thinking about it more rationally I’m thinking it probably wasn’t in the bed
I’d only been up there not 5 minutes when I felt it and I’d come directly from the couch where our dog sleeps
So me thinks it’s most likely hitched a ride from the garden on our dog then hitched a ride up the stairs on me

Now I don’t know where to put myself though, I don’t want to sleep on either the bed or the couch
😩
