creepy toronto bugs
ok..so I(and brynne aka lipstick) had a creepy bug experience the other day. heres the story
Im sitting on the couch playing Gran Turismo 4. I see what looks to be a fluff ball floating across the floor. then it stopped, changed directions and went up to brynes door, where there is a bit more light. The fluff ball now looks like a bug. Big, Id guess about 1.5 inches long. Then it went under her door and well..it was a creepy looking thing so I yelled at her because she had just gone to sleep. After some minor freaking out and searching the room, we find this big, corner it and her boyfriend killed it. Now none of us know what it is, and personally, Im pretty curious as to what this giant thing was.
The best way I can describe it(and of course, my description is different than hers, and her boyfriends but thats the joys of memory recall) is that it was a long tube like bug which tapered from one end to the other(dont know which end was tail) It had many legs, which seemed to go out in an M like fashion, with the middle of the M being the body of the bug. It was a tan to light green colour, and seemed to prefer the safety of darkness vs the light when we searched for it. It moved with pretty decent speed as well. Honestly it creeped me out because I have no idea what it was.
maybe somebody knows some odd bugs that live in this area and can help us out. It sure would put me at ease just to know what it is. And sorry, no pics, it crushed it and tossed it out in a kleenex.
