I think there are bugs in my bed and they bite me at night. I’ve found two. One looked like a cricket and the other I looked up on the internet and learned it is called a house centipede. They have 15 sets of legs and an overall scary-ass appearance (see picture).
I’m no stranger to bug bites at night as I’ve spent a combined year, maybe two, of my life sleeping in cabins or tents. After most nights out there, I wake up, start scratching and then get really tingly, like the bug venom/bacteria is distilling with my blood and testing its defenses. After a time, I calm down and get on with my life but I don’t think I’m the same person. I’m part bug now. And the bugs are part me.
