Help me identify this creature?

in #art7 years ago (edited)

Hi Steemit for the life of me I cannot figure out what this is. I was minding my own business farting around on the computer when my vision blurred for a moment and I became aware of a ringing in my ears. For the last few days it has felt like I had water in my ear but I have not been able to get it out. Suddenly I felt something kind of sloosh out of my ear and this strange creature plopped out onto the kitchen floor. Before I could even think I had stomped on it. I am pretty sure it is dead now. For a few moments pulses of light radiated out across its translucent flesh but then they died down and it just lay there motionless.

Needless to say I was pretty freaked out, and I am only growing more worried because I have had no luck whatsoever identifying what the heck this thing is. I took a picture of it and I am really hoping you can tell me what this is!

Do you think I should maybe call my doctor? I read online that Neem oil may help in situations like this as well. One source said I could use a neti pot in my ear, but that doesn't sound right, does it? It really isn't very big so I am hoping there is nothing to worry about. Here I put a quarter next to it for scale:

Here is a close up:

Alien Creature created by moi in PhotoShop made almost entirely from sections of this jellyfish (copied, pasted, twisted, resized, faded into each other with layer masks, pushed, tickled and cajoled), with a minimum of PhotoShop painting as well. I created this image and associated short story as an entry in @juliakponsford's awesome Art Explosion contest- this week's theme was "Aliens" :)

What a great entry! I kind of think your little alien friend is cute... but he can't live in my ear either.

LMAO! my friend and i were laughing so hard as we thought it was a post about an alien abducting you! of course steemit is on top of covering the alien invasion, right? :p thanks for sharing. super cool post and impressive photoshop skills sir!

excellent I am glad my little visitor could bring joy to you and yours :)

I was going to comment like wtf that came out of your ear?!

yeah well that was basically my response. STOMP! WTF that came out of my ear?!

Disturbing to say the least.

Thanks for stopping by @aldentan good to see you again!

Oh if it was in your ear I'm pretty sure it was a babel fish, maybe you should put it back in, we're you able to understand other languages? 😀

Very interesting. It looks an alien jellyfish. Maybe it came from Mars!!! OMG!!!! Invasion haha :)

Had this story been true you probably would have the Shadow government paying you a visit. They don't like their dirty little secrets getting out.

Hey that might explain the white van that has been parked across the street since this morning.

Very possible 😊
