Gross weird bug in my living room

[Calluna]

So this thing has been running laps around my living room for the last few hours. The same path. It's very strange.
It looks like a cross between a ****roach and a spider or something.

Oven cleaner work wonders with most bugs I have found and you can always hairspray-fire torch it if that fails. In perth we use to get these HUGE coakroaches that would take a week to die with fly spray- oven cleaner did the job in 30 secs lol

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! that thing is scary looking and I showed hubby and hes like "oh those" so we get them here- double AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Calluna]

We get massive ones too. They are disgusting.

Lol! I don't think it'll eat me, but I am a little worried it might follow me into the bedroom and crawl into my mouth while I'm sleeping... :/

Ugh, it's like some kind of horrendous lab breeding accident...so glad I didn't see that before bed or I'd have had nightmares. That'd have me wanting to move house and start over, but I am a bug wuss!
