I had a bug in my ear...literally!

I had something fly in my ear and proceed to take a deep walk once. We were in Tennessee or somewhere down there delivering livestock (this was a long-lost lifetime ago).

I did not acquit myself well. Nothing like feeling something crawling around in your head, and having no-one believe you that it’s happening. Lots of water rinsing and head shaking.

To make matters worse, the next morning, I went out to watch the sunrise (because you don’t sleep with a fucking bug crawling around in your head) over this lake we were staying at, and this big fuzzy spider came creeping towards me. Well, I stomped that Pronto! But that wasn’t Fuzz. It was a million baby spiders that all took off in all directions. I was tap dancing like Gregory Hines to kill those Mother Fuckers!

At my age it’s sometimes necessary to deploy the ear and nose hair trimmer. After reading the OP, I think I’ll let those particular follicles go feral. Why clear the brush to make an easy entry for anything?
