So here I am, sitting quietly at my computer desk, sketching away when it happens...

...A dark, mysterious object falls on me from above! :O

It landed on my leg only to disappear seconds later. I don't believe I ever got up from my chair faster than I did at that moment. o.o; I'm proud to say I didn't make with the man-screams or flail in a futile manner, though I did swipe at my leg instinctively as it could've been a spider from hell. I searched for a good fifteen minutes with a large, high-powered flashlight, but found no trace of whatever the creature was, nothing scurrying away at the periphery of my vision. The hopeful side of me wonders if it was the precocious little gecko I saw in my room about a month ago. I nicknamed him Scrambles.

Let me tell you, I'd be fine if I knew what it was and would take the appropriate steps to deal with it. What's getting to me right now is the fear of the unknown with this crawly. I don't know where or what it is. *glances about furtively*

At least it didn't happen while I was sleeping. That would've been one heck of a rude awakening. At which point I couldn't promise the lack of man-screams. :3
