| Striped Bark Scorpion* |
I saw the first one. When I spotted him I freaked out a little and promptly splatted him with the heal of my shoe. I had never seen a live scorpion in my house before and I had the "heebie jeebies" for the entire evening. The next day I shared my traumatic story with a friend at work who said, "Oh, you know they mate for life, right? So you will have to find the other." I about wet my pants when she said that. I lived in Arizona for 33 years without ever seeing a scorpion that was alive with the exception of the one that my son caught and thought would be cool to stick in a jar and show me. I was not entertained. I don't do scorpions. In Arizona I expected them, but in Oklahoma?
