I had a bug in me ear, no really!!! a fra-eeek-in bug was in my ear!

I woke at 4:20 this morning with a tickle at the side of my head. I had my hair down and thought at first that it was just my hair but the tickle crawled to my ear. At this point I was WIDE awake.

I could hear marching sounds very loud in right ear only and knew that something had in fact crawled into my ear. I stuck my pinky finger in there and the marching got even louder and I had a tickle against my eardrum.

The marching continued again and this time in the opposite direction, away from my ear. I tried to wait patiently, you know a fraction of a second, and stuck my finger in again. No go. Marching back toward the ear drum, a tickling sensation and quiet.

At this point I was out of bed and in the bathroom. I had a Q-tip ready to go. I sat down on the toilet, the seat was down for all you perverts out there, and waited.

I heard the marching back away from my ear and I felt the same sensation that you feel when you have water in your ear. I leaned forward and a fra-eeek-in earwig feel out of my head.

I squished the fucker little fellow and tried not to pass out from the shear joy of the situation.

I tried to go back to sleep, knowing that the children would be waking soon and they would not understand how totally disgusting this situation was.

It's a lot for me not to be able to fall asleep. Many of you know my almost naurcoleptic ablity to sleep when I wish. I tried pushing my ear to the pillow and pulling the covers to my ears but my neck was in a funny postion and I could not convince myself to sleep. It took over an hour to go back to dreamland.

I will now be investing in a good pair of earplugs today.
