I KNEW Jenny on the Spot would have a Hysterical Bug Story!

The bug stories for our Raid Bug Story $500 Walmart Gift Card Giveaway are pouring in — and thank goodness they are only the stories, not the actual bugs, cause there are hundreds of them!

raid-bug-storyI must say, laughing at bug stories is a lot better than actually experiencing bug stories!

Check out the comments to read some funny stories — and even follow links to some fabulous bloggers who posted their stories on their own sites!

My Life in Mommyland posted about how a little black spider descended upon her while she stood at the altar! Yes — as she stood in her beautiful gown, for the best moment of her life, her husband to be whispered to her, “I don’t want you to freak out, but there’s a spider walking across the top of your dress.”

One Cluttered Brain posted a video about her bug story — that still has my skin crawling!

And my fabulous friend, Jenny Ingram, from Jenny on the Spot did NOT disappoint us with a hysterical telling of her encounter with a Jurassic-sized bug… watch till the end… Jenny is too funny!

    OK… I entered a story over on the other post, but in looking for something unique to get my mother for Mother’s Day I stumbled across this over on Etsy… it’s too funny and goes along perfectly with a lot of these stories!

    My husband would be just like that big tough guy. He secretly acts all guffaw about stuff…like it’s no big deal but I KNOW he walks away and breaks out in a sweat, glad he has dodged another EWWwww. moment. I am the one with the 6 kids who has gotten up in the middle of the night when a DEER is foraging not 2 feet away from our bedroom window and I think an intruder…or Peeping Tom (um…peeping Bambi) is trying to get into our house. Or when centipedes that look like furry little rugs scurry. A mouse….bees….spiders. He seems to disappear out of the “frame” until it’s all over.
    You are a freaking comedian. I love your delivery. You should work Vegas girl!
