super powers eh

This morning, i was laying on the couch (i sleep on the couch every now and then) stretching and as i reached my arm up in to the air, i thought how crazy would that be if spiderwebs shot out of my wrist. like if one day you woke up and you had super powers. i remember watching the Secret World of Alex Mac as a kid, a show about a teenage girl who got some kinda toxic waste spilled on her one day as she was on her way home. as a result of the spillage, she could turn into goo at will, allowing her to make sneaky getaways without being noticed, and she could also move things with her mind. of course, as a kid, the show inspired me to try moving things with my mind too; the remote when it was too far away and i wanted to change the channel... a snack that was just out of reach... my brother when he was being annoying.
so, a little tidbit about me before my next story - i'm terrified of ladybugs. if they're not on me, whatever, not inside the house, it's fine, not flying, ok. but as soon as they open their wings or are in a secluded area with me, i get a little nervous. so one day, i was sitting in the front pew at church, bored out of my face when i saw a ladybug crawling on the floor about 2 feet away from me - keep in mind this was like a year ago - when i decided i would be goofy and try to make the lady bug come closer to me. so in my head i whispered to the lady bug to come closer come closer (i wanted to squish it) and then soon, the lady bug started to come closer. i was like ha that's funny. then it started to come really close, and i was like GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY!!! yeah. i dont know what the point of that story was, but Alex Mac made me think of it.
i'm sure you've done something similar in your time. feel free to share a story...
