How 'bout if I said I wasn't joking?

I'd believe you ... but it wouldn't stop me from procrastinating , just from returning to this thread. I don't feel like putting my hard hat on today (gotta protect myself from stepping into threads where there's lot of fall out, ya know).

Hey Pluto! I had to wait until someone else posted so I could procrastinate a little bit before I said hi! Gotta keep this procrastination thing on track.

Fine. I'll just chase you with a Daddy Longlegs. I've done that kinda thing before.

And if you still won't move... how 'bout a snake? Scared my mom with one once.

 

[flaps]

Here's a lovely little guy to get your legs a-movin'.

 

[Saffron]

LOL! What is that? Is that a cicada or a grasshopper or a half something/half spider?

Daddy Longlegs.

I have to find that thread again. I think someone was going to post a picture of one on there.

And ... why do we as little kids like to torment our moms with snakes? I didn't know my mom was seriously afraid of them when I took the little baby garter snake into my house to show her. I was only about 5 when I did that and I had no clue she had a fear of snakes. But I found out real quick.

It's supposed to be a daddy long legs. But beats me.

I was maybe 12 when I scared my mom. It was just a garter, but a decent-sized one. And it was real wiggly and its guts were falling out 'cause my dad had accidentally whacked it with the weed-whacker. My mom was inside ironing, and I held it up to the window for her to see. Dad told me to take it inside, so I motioned to mom that I was heading for the door. She tried to beat me, but I was able to open the door right as she reached it to lock it. Bloody snake right in her face.

I also scared an aunt with a big ol' hoppy-toad once.

I was a bad kid.

Ooooooooh, okay. Then back in the club with full honors, no beatings with fluff -- as long as you wait until 5 minutes before she's due back before you get off the DIS and scramble around to finish anything that might need to be done!

Eww, that would have scared me too!

I like hoppy toads, little ones. Actually, I wish I had a couple little tiny ones in my backyard. I would love that. But I'm not big on frogs that JUMP! We had one in our pool 2 summers ago. I was afraid to go near him, but afraid to swim under water to get out of the pool, because I was afraid I would come up out of the water with the frog sitting on my head. He was sitting in where the filter thing is, just where the water splashes in and out. I was warned he was there AFTER I got in the pool.
