Since the very beginning of my time on earth I haven’t been a great fan of “bugs”. And it so happens that they’re strangely attracted to (a sweet blooded person says mum) me.
The strange part is people near and dear (especially one by two) doesn’t understand that some people are allergic to creepy crawly things and should consider if allergic people scream if they’re attacked by – leeches (sticking on to your legs!!), cockroaches, spiders, ants mosquitoes!
If the news spreads, I’ll have a tough time fighting Vampires off soon.
And these creepy crawly “gifts of nature” to mankind always think of attacking… especially when I’m out on a trip with one by two.
Very first trip with one by two: Ooty (some garden with greenery and not to mention loads of bugs in the grass)
One by two: “love the lovely grass… its so green… and nice… why don’t you sit here.. next to me.. on the grass”
Me: “Err… I don’t know…” should try this once… first impressions last long...
Try and sit on the prickly grass….
5 seconds later
The grass is quite prickly (one by two happily chatting away… trying to concentrate)
V strange… how can I spot a lot of could-not-be-identified-things crawling all over… (one by two… oblivious to my plight.. finding the whole thing “romantic” suggests lying down on the prickly grass)
15 seconds later: That’s it! Cannot pretend to find creepy bugs crawling all over self romantic!
One by two gets upset… and decides to not talk AT ALL.
Second trip: Gokarna (lovely beach with lots crabs of all sizes)
One by two: plunging into water... of course expecting me to do the same… -- “the water is soooo nice… why don’t you jump in!!”
Me: “Oooh I dunno…” decide to give it a try anyway…
Walking towards the beach…
Wait a second… what’s that weird looking black-brown thing crawling sideways!?
Omg! It’s a crab! Omg! They’re all over the place…
No way in hell I’m going near the crabs…
Decide to not get into the water…
One by two as usual does not understand my plight and gets upset! Again!!
Wakes me up at 5 in the morning to watch the sunrise!!
In the cold… park self on a rock… one by two holding me close… oh no I can feel something crawling up my leg… can’t move… don’t want to upset one by two again…
15 minutes later:
When is the bloody sun going to be up…Omg! Can feel a lot of things crawling up legs!
30 minutes later:
That’s it.. I’ve had it... cannot let things crawl up my legs anymore… tell one by two.. don’t find things crawling up legs romantic! AT ALL
One by two gets upset again!!
Third trip: Tough Trek in some random jungle on the western coast.
Ooh yes I love climbing.. will show one by two this time I’m not a sissy! (as he claims I am) Totally dislike being called sissy…
20 minutes in the jungle – I’m a nature’s child… will not create a “fuss” this time around…
25 minutes later: wooah there’s a stream running in the middle of the jungle… oh have to cross this huge log! Hmmm… wonder what these people are scared of!
2 seconds later: Omg! Have bugs sticking on to my pants… !
A second later: Did someone just mention leeches! Omg! Omg have leeches stuck to self… omg… someone do something…
5 minutes later: Leeches sticking on to peoples leg… should see if there’s one stuck to mine…
No amount of crying, jumping around gets rid of the damn thing from my foot…
Finally one by two comes to rescue… squishes that scary creepy thing!
Not enjoying this damn jungle anymore… too traumatized…somebody get me out of here!
This time one by two did not enjoy it either (tee hee hee) did not enjoy climbing up and down the dreary jungle fun! Still puts on a brave face and is determined to not show people that he’s tired/scared/wants to get back ASAP.
We haven’t been able to decide on a place to go yet… a nice place with no bugs around to traumatize me! And nice clean toilets (v important) and no creepy, crawly bugs trying to ruin the "Romantic" chit-chats (would hopefully be able to concentrate and not look around for bugs)
