We were at a mall once in KS and I was about Angela's age. When my mom was
about to get back into the car, I noticed a grasshopper on her head. I said
something like, "Now don't freak out but there's a grasshopper on your
head!" To which she replied, "Yeah, right!", and just got into the car.
Then I starterd freaking out because I have a grasshopper phobia. When I
was about 3 I picked one up, examined it and pulled the wings off.
Horrified, I took it to my mom to fix it. Which of course she could not.
Now I fear all grasshoppers will hate me!
