Grasshopper
As I sit here and work I felt a small grasshopper land on my shorts. It is much smaller than those I am used to in the midwest, and is colored more like the inside of a lime, including the moist sheen, as opposed to the dry grass look that I recall.
Just now it has tickled its way up to the top of my knee, Im laying back with my legs propping up the computer. and jumped to the other knee, where its seems content to take a nap.
Joined by a ladybug on the elbow, and a small spider navigating through the leg hair jungle. Man that is ticklish.
20 minutes later, the grasshopper is still hanging out. Looking more closely I believe it is immature, as its wings barely make it back to where its hind legs pass its body on their way up to its knees.
