Roommate


I saw a nasty-looking ticky-beetle on the floor in my bedroom, traveling away from my bed and as close as I can tell, towards I-75 South. He was one of those really tough little critters with digging machinery up front, and he was still reasonably spry even after I popped him between my fingers (with appropriate Kleenex protection of course).

An encounter like that is really unsettling, to have a (possibly) carnivorous insect so close to my bed. I wonder if he has peeps in the vicinity.

Was he dragging chunks of Dave flesh across the floor on his way to the " get-away-vehicle" while leaving a moist track on the hardwood?
