LOL, thanks for explaining.
I had a freaky bug experience of my own:
Last year, one evening I was on the phone and all of a sudden I hear and feel a bug buzzing at my head. It was a humongous wasp. I mean--BIG-- at least three inches long and about three quarters of an inch wide! It was a godzilla bug--a real mutant. I had never seen anything like it before.
I kind of freaked and got up to move, and it just kept coming at my head and wouldn't leave me alone. So I ran into the bathroom (my friend was still on the other end of the phone line). I thought I was safe in there and then-- there it was again, diving at my head!
Ok, so I realized it was going after movement, so I sloooowwwwwllllyy and caaareeeeffulllyy crept out of the bathroom, closing the door behind me, and closed myself in the bedroom. I was then afraid to go to the bathroom all night.
In the middle of the night, I just HAD to go, so I put on all the clothing I could grab, covering everything, especially my head, which seemed to be the bulls eye for this monster-bug. I crept in sssllllooooowwwwllllyyyy, and caaaarefulllllly again, but did not see it. Then, when I went to wash my hands, there it was in the sink. ACK!!
Another freak out, escape from the bathroom, narrowly missing it zoning straight for my head. Later in the night, or the wee hours of the morn, I couldn't sleep, just thinking about the monster bug, so I got up, donned my armor, and ventured back into the bathroom. It was in the sink again, and had apparently wound itself down to near lethargy--enough that I could spray it with bug spray (it did require a megadose, though).
I still cringe and shiver just thinking about it.
