Daddy Long Legs

I have a memory that has parked in a space in my brain. I think it's connected to my senses of sight-hearing-taste and smell= all at the same time. I recall eating a hamburger and holding it with the same hands that I used to hold a daddy long legs. I didn't wash my hands, and that invertebrate must have let off some kind of musk (probably a defense mechanism). Since that odor stayed affixed to my hands, the food I was eating ended up smelling like the bug, and to this day, sometimes I can taste that critter when I eat a hamburger.
