This is goner be gross... 2 weeks ago I was in a rush to go see my sister in Detriot who was in an accident. So, I took a bath and left that same day. 2 weeks later on my return I realized I had forgot to let the water out of the bath. There were some small moldy looking stuff in the water along with what looks like misquito larvae. They where small and black with a small haad attach to a little wiggle tale they used to swim with. WHAT IS THIS? DID THESE THINGS COME FROM ME SOMEHOW???

No, the larvae came from the insects in your home. Just relax and don't worry about it. Clean the tub good with Ajax or Clorox bleach and the bugs won't return. What happened is an insect laid their eggs in the stagnant water while you were away and you happened to come home and find them before they progressed into adult flying bugs.

Twinkie pretty much pegged this one. Most likely they were indeed mosquito larvae (called "wigglers" by the fishermen who use them as bait) or their cousins, midges.
