Look what I found in my bed!

It got me under the arm when I was sleeping. Leaves a big red welt and you can see the spot it bit or stung me. I'm still not sure what they do. It feels like your skin is on fire. So I ran into the kitchen and got the tongs and flushed him down the toilet! Some people say they can come back up from the toilet so I flushed it about 10 times. The one that got me was about 6 inches long. Then when I was outside watering I look down and there is another one heading for me! I turned the hose on it and it started to turn away from me. I was going to kill it but then I felt bad because it wasn't in my house like the other one. I was in his space. So I finished watering all the time keeping an eye on it. But this one was even bigger then the one I flushed. They say the baby ones hurt the most. But dang, the big ones hurt too. I always open my bed and check between the covers and sheets before going to bed so he must have waited till I was asleep. Man, I hate those things!!!
