A childhood belief about picking my nose

My Mom used to tell me not to pick my nose because "buggers turn into bugs"...now, obviously this was an innocent attempt to keep my fingers out of my nostrils. I don't know if I really believed her, at first..anyway. But one day after digging for the nasal ore, I looked down and saw a ladybug...believe it or not that made a believer out of me. (Side note.....I actually believed that buggers were a part of brain tissue that had slipped down into the nose...I really did, hey, I was a weird kid..but, then, I'm kind of an odd adult, too.
