So let's see. I was homeless for a time, couch surfing, but now have a home on C Hill, which I am more than excited about. It's my favorite neighborhood, I'm within walking distance of the people I care about, I can walk to work, and there are things to *do*. Also, I have a bed. And there is a cat named Techno who likes to sit in the bathtub and

Sounds quite exciting.

I am pretty phobic about things crawling around in the night. I had an ant infestation in my bedroom once and about hit the roof when I discovered one crawling on me.

Irrational maybe, but there you are. It helps me to take as much concrete action as I can. If your bed is already on a frame, you can isolate the legs by putting them in cans/tins/dishes with water or petroleum jelly in them. Make sure you have at least a few inches between you and walls, and use a hot dryer cycle on your sheets.

If you are still not confident in your bed insect safety, you can use citrus sprays which repel most bugs, or in the case of bedbugs (some of which are resistant to a lot of stuff) you can find some pesticides which are safe to spray inside the home.

uh.. yeah. phobic. Sorry.

(I'm here from whitechapel. what up.)

Hello!

Yes. I definitely put everything through the drier more than was necessary, and still do. DIE, FUCKERS! DIE!

I think the bedbugs I complained about was just one hobo I picked up from your place. I felt very relieved!

Thank god. I was so worried. It was totally like the STD call.

I miss you Willow!

I worry about your doing parkour. I mean, the falls can be nasty.

That is chilling.

And that person obviously does not have the poise and proper training. We spend a *lot* of time learning how to fall and recover.
