I confronted my fear of big bugs.
I think this phobia comes from a post-apocalyptic movie called Damnation Alley in which the characters at one point stop in this town infested with KILLER COCKROACHES. There's a scene with a guy covered with these cockroaches that can't be smashed getting eaten to death. It's crap for special effects but I think it imprinted itself on my little kid mind.
Anyway, I'm okay with little bugs but I found a large centipede in my bathroom. After having the usual freak-out-holy-shit-that-thing-is freaky reaction I captured it. I looked at it closely in a jar until it wasn't so freaky. It's face was actually kind of cute!

thats sick. I cant even look at those pictures.
Oh my GAWD!
Remember the big dead spider at the cabin??
And how Jenna moved it and I freaked???
I am much more scared of centipeds than I am of spiders. His face is not cute, you are wrong.
Did you let him crawl all over you with his fast moving legs now that you are such good buddies?
