i forgot to tell you about when i almost swallowed a fly the other day.
somehow it drowned in my hot milo, but i didn't see it in there until i'd almost finished it because it wasn't floating. it was only when i was tipping the last swallow into my mouth & i looked at the fluid as it was pouring in that i saw a black thing come swooshing along with the milo. i closed my mouth to try to avoid it & it landed between my lips. it felt like i imagined a fly between my lips would feel so i quickly spat the mouthful of drink back into the cup, managing to dribble down my chin & splatter my hands & the carpet, too.
i wasn't so sure it was a fly at first, lying there all soggy & bedraggled in the bottom of my mug, but when i ran some water into the mug to wash the milo out to see it more clearly, its wings kind of 'puffed out' in the water & i could see that it most definitely was a fly.
needless to say (although, as you can see, i'm going to say it anyway), it grossed me out a lot.

when i was working up in north W.A. I was going walking before the sun came up to avoid the flys... but some mornings they would wake up early too and without a doubt I would swallow at least one a week... its very hard to walk with your mouth tightly closed... and even then sometimes you'd inhale them through your nose... that is so much worse than swallowing them
