Don't bug me!!!

So I took the girls to ballet today and Rebekah and I have this nice carpool set up so I didn't have to take any extra kids with me. A nice hour to just sit and read as much of this book as I can before I have to turn it in tomorrow because someone else has a hold on it. I only have 275 more pages to go out of 507. Think I'll make it? Anyway, so I'm sitting there reading for a half an hour all absorbed in the intricate details of a sinking ship carrying 600 people and millions of dollars in gold from the California gold rush... when all of a sudden I notice the lady sitting next to me staring in the general direction of the book I'm reading. She can't possibly be interested in what I'm reading. As I keep reading, I notice her glance at me and then point to my knee. Oh. My. Goodness. There is this 1.5 inch long cross between a spider and a cockroach just chillin' on my knee. Sick!!! You'd be proud: I didn't scream. I did almost pass out. But I didn't. The lady took a paper towel she was holding and flicked the nasty thing off my knee and her 5 year old girl stepped on it. I was so jittery after that I hardly read the rest of the time. I hate bugs!!!
