Something I never thought I'd hear

So after a long and crazy week John and I got to have a fantastic and relaxing date night. After dinner we wandered towards Barnes and Noble. We got a phone call from our realtor (that's another topic for later) so we stopped at some tables outside the store to talk. John finished the phone call and we went inside. We made it to the back of the store and started flipping through some books. Suddenly John says, "I have a cicada in my pants." I laugh, thinking he's kidding. As I look up he's grabbing a small handful of his pants on his thigh and I realize he's actually not kidding. He really did have a cicada in his pants! I can't wait for those stupid bugs to go back underground.

Ugh, yuck, what did he do in the store, drop his pants??
The only thing worse I can remember is that when your Grandpa was a teenager working in the field of NH he had a mouse run up his pant leg.

Oh, I just got the shivers. I don't know what I would do if I found a cicada in my pants...I think I would be scarred for life!
