O, what a panic’s in thy breastie!

This morning I was lazy. I woke up, turned on the repeat of the Colbert Report that comes on every morning at 8:30, then promptly lazed until much later than I should have. Got up, made my lunch, threw pieces of bread in the toaster oven. Toaster oven dinged, I took out one slice of bread, spread it with butter, consumed. Walked absentmindedly, in ( Read more... )

Oh my god. I think I would've been freaked out for weeks. For some reason I can deal with mice if they're running all over the apartment or squirming on a glueboard (not saying I like it, but I can deal with it), but dead animals just make me all wiggy. Shoshana can't stand live ones, so it worked out well between us what to do when we caught one. (And we caught about half a dozen in the past year or so -- not fun. It's too bad mice aren't like bugs where you can just spray some funky chemical, keep your house clean, and they'll go away.)

Exactly. My apartment is clean, so I haven't had too many buggies. But at least I'm relatively used to buggies having grown up in North Florida.

The glue traps freak me the f out. That would probably be worse for me than a dead animal. Aah, freaking out again. Gonna slink my way to the bathroom (turning on the light first this time).

i have roach problems ; ( I am so disgusted and freaked out. I have to get my place fumegated. And I don't go to sleep at night when it is dark because i am afraid they will crawl into my bedroom. And my noise keeps them at bay.

Your noise, eh? What kind of noise? What is the best sound to ward off roachies?

Hey. Can we hang out? I miss you. I'd be fun to be your houseboy for a night! I'm pretty free this weekend.

Sure sure. Also, Dayne and I both need some bootblacking (him moreso than me, though I have a pair I'd love taken care of before winter comes). Wish all my friends had such useful Job skills. ;)

I'd be more than willing to tip you in food and drink and gay, gay cartoons.
