I decided to take a shower and rinse of the rest of the chlorine before making dinner, and while I was rinsing my hair, I felt a sudden burning pain in the middle finger of my left hand. I quickly brought my hand down, and something large and black went flying to the shower floor. I looked, and there was a large black bug, drowning in the soapy water. I scooped it out into a container (dead) to try and identify it later, and watched the red bump on my finger swell.

I'm not sure where it came from, other that it might have been on the shower head and fell onto my head with the water. I can tell that it isn't a roach or a wasp, but I'm not really sure what it is, other than extremely freaky. Insects, especially large biting ones, do NOT belong in my shower.

I am allergic to bees, so I am keeping watch for signs of allergy, in case I might be allergic to this thing, too. It also remains to be seen whether I shall develop and cool new talents, like wall climbing.
