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 <a href="https://steemit.com/art/@juliakponsford/art-explosion-week-7-theme-aliens-25-sbd-in-prizes-all-forms-of-art-welcome">Art Explosion contest</a>- this week's theme was "Aliens" :)  <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lampocteis">Bloodbelly Comb Jelly</a>
