Mothra

It is funny the things that we remeber sometimes, the things which stay within our mind for whatever reason, and we carry with us, and it is not always the big things either, sometimes it is just little and simple, mundane things, that for whatever reason stays with us and remains vivid within our mind. Though I have never been good at recalling dates or time frames when I remeber things for whatever reason, I can remeber the event clearly but have a hard time placing just when it happend. There is this one story I clearly remeber and for some reason still cary it with me, and remain a touch mystified by it though I cannot say why.

It was either in the spring or summer time I would have to say, I was probaly somewhere in my early teens at the time, and I was at my grandmothers house, she had this huge backyard, and when I was younger, I use to love to play all sorts of make beleive games of adventure in her backyard, and I would collect catapillars, because milkweed use to grow crazy back there, and so the monarchs would be everwhere and I would collect the catapillars and keep them in a container untill she metamorhised then let the butterflies go, but I am getting off track for now, on this paritcualar day, I was romping around the backyard, becasue I was tired of sitting in the house, and I wanted some time alone, when I felt something like bite or sting my leg, and I looked down, and the only thing I could see was this bright yellow orange colored bug that appered to be some sort of moth or butterly flying around the area where I was bit, and there was no sign of anything else that could have done it, but I know that moths and butterflies do not bite, and as far as I know they do not even have the ablity to do so, they certiantly do not have any stingers and fangs, and I do not think butterflies even have teeth or pinchers of any kind becasue they drink nector though mouths might have some sort of pinchers or teeth for cutting leaves and such, they simply do not bite, at least not that I have ever heard of, but it has always aludeded me as to just what could have happend, and I have never been able to uncover the asnwer, I have looked in varrious different bug books and the only things I found that looked like what bit me are varrious types of moths or butterflies, and I have found nothing to suggest that there is any particuarly type of mouth that does or would bite. But I do not know what other answer there could be, nor what else could have been responsieble for it.
