creepy crawlies...and touching them

i am grossed out by things:

1. I thought I had a spur on my hat, so I decided to pull it off. The spur had wings. The winged spur was not a spur but a bug. I chucked the bug and said "AGH!"

I should have never looked at the spur

2. Boots in a forest are stored upside-down for a reason. I often wear the boots when I am helping build the cabaña. As a result, there is sometimes cement in the boots the next day. I put my foot in the boot and felt what I thought was cement at the toe. I turned the boot upside down (with a tilt) so that the ´cement´at the toe would fall out. Out came a frog. I stared at it in shock. It was either:
a) alive and also looking at me in shock. i think it was alive because 10 minutes later it was gone from the site at which it was staring at me.
b) dead and eaten by a bird.

3. I have never seen some of these kinds of bugs. One looked like a spider with 20 (at least) legs.

4. I am being eaten alive.


I also saw my first live, not-caged snake.

cool.
