I’m totally freaking serious and its not even funny. I’ve been feeling pretty sick over the past couple of days so after I ate dinner all I wanted to do was lie down and take a nap before going out to watch a movie at a friends house. My mom washed my sheets this morning and then hung them out to dry so before I could take a nap I had to put the sheets back on my bed.
I got half of the bottom sheet on when I picked up my blanket and comforter to move them out of the way and underneath the pile was A SCORPION!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!
OK, so luckily it was only about the size of a half dollar – maybe a little bigger. Regardless, it was in my bed and I was freaking out. Somehow I managed to get some paper out of the trash can to squish it with. Only problem was it would squish. Finally I opened my door and yelled for my brother and mom – they were the only other ones home. They came running to my rescue and helped me smash the critter and then shake out the rest of my bedding.
It wasn’t the only one. My mom proceeds to tell me that she found one crawling all over my books a couple weeks ago when she was in cleaning my room. That’s extra creepy. Two scorpions in one month. My mom tried to assure me not to worry, she said “no one in Chacrasana has ever died from a scorpion bite”. Great…. real assuring.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of them? I don’t even know how they are getting in. Any why my bed??? Why me??? For now I have to check my entire bed – sheets, blankets, sleeping bag etc, every time I get in it. But that doesn’t make me feel any safer. Just because they aren’t in my bed when I get in it, how do I know its not going to crawl in to cuddle with me after I’m already asleep?
Somebody please help!
