The cricket and what happened to him!!!

Well lets see, he kept my Hubby up the next night HAHAHA.............sorry its just normally the man can sleep through anything, and had no sympathy for me when i told him of my cricket saga.....so the next night i hear the dreaded bug singing away for all he was worth, and i hear grumbling, and whining, so i said "well now do you believe me when i say he is LOUD????" so i feel the bed move which means Dh is out of bed and hot on the trail of the dratted bug. So i snuggle down thinking i will hear the "SMACK" of a shoe or rolled up magazine as the pesky annoyance is severely dealt with. The singing is continuing, i can hear Dh staggering around in the dark, the beam of a torch sweeping the room. Then i hear...............................................nothing..............................silence.........................so i'm thinking ahhhhh peace..................and i go to sleep.

So i ask the dh the next day how did you kill the bug so quietly? "Well" says he looking everywhere but at me, "I didn't", so i look at him saying "so what did you do with him??" "well, i put him outside" OUTSIDE?" says i "OUTSIDE?" i am shrieking now cos i know the little devil will be back................"what are you thinking???????????" " you know the little sod will be back and probably bringing his new found family and friends with him...why didn't you flatten him???????????????????" " well" says Dh ( he seems to like that word!) he was singing so nicely i hadn't the heart to flatten him, so i picked him up in a tissue and threw him outside" I think that is when i snorted and told him that if he came back with a whole host of relatives that he had better hope i had taken a sleeping tablet and i couldn't hear him, cos there would be DIRE repercussions!!!!!!!!!!
All has been quite on the cricket in the bedroom front, BUT the cats on the other hand have been having a high old time with them, i have no idea how the bugs get in ( and when i do find the place i am having it sealed)...........anyway, i see the cats all in a circle ( i have 3 of them) looking intently at something........so i ask dh what they are looking at, he mutters something unintelligible and i sigh and get up to go look..............................i shriek and say to dh "oh yuck its a cricket with no legs.......... can't you do something?" well he says no and mutters something else about study and having a test etc..................and can't i do something?.........................i freeze...........................can't I DO SOMETHING?.............................you have to understand that i hate things that crawl, i don't like insects of any kind well ladybirds are an exception, but mostly i am scared to death, unless i have shoe, rolled up paper or the hoover nearby.SO i think ok, i know Dh really does have a test and study to do........so i think i can do this, it has no legs how hard can it be?? so i bravely go and get a tissue and attempt FOUR times to pick this thing up, each time i am so grossed out i can't do it..............so then i steeeeeeel myself...............i pick it up in the tissue....................................................................................................and promptly start shrieking again cos the thing MOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it has no legs but it tried to move anyway and i felt it. I dropped that tissue with legless cricket in it and ran for the hoover, why i didn't do that in the first place i do not know..........i sucked that puppy up, took the compartment with it in and threw it in the rubbish bin............dh meanwhile is laffing so hard that tears are streaming down his face, i am not amused and i tell him so. Meanwhile the 3 cats are peering into the dark through the screen door cos they just know their toy was out there someplace............ some days i hate those cats!
