We had exterminators in for roaches and it was $75 for a one-time and $125 if we wanted them to come back every 3 months for some unspecified period.
We have cave crickets in the basement, too, but since all we do there is store stuff and do laundry, they don't worry me too much.
Last night, combined with monthly hormones, I wanted to have a good cry over Koogie, but I couldn't bring myself to because Hubby was there. For some reason, I don't want to let myself become too emotional around him, because he'll want to be all comforting and clingy, and the idea of it drives me nuts. I just want to pull myself into a cave with my stuff and blubber in peace to myself. IE, I want him to go away for a while.
{{connie}} It's not ideal, but how about in the shower? No one knows you're crying with the water running.

Ours has a rec-room and an office/bedroom, in addition to the 2nd bath and laundry room, so we'll be down there. And by that I mean I'm a big coward about bugs and don't want to share the space, nor would I feel comfortable sending houseguests down there to sleep.

Or go to a cemetary. People expect you to cry there.
Connie, can you just say "honey, I just gotta let the waterworks go. Can you give me some space? I know you want to comfort me, and I love that about you. But I just need to be by myself."
Dunno. That might be worse. Not sure.
ION... Sssssshhhhh. Tonight I'm shooting pool with Cute Graphics Girl. We'll see if anything comes of it. Wish me luck(& anti-shyness).
Aimee- Em is awesome!
What happened with your estimator? Was there any indication he was unhappy?
JZ- Yay for good interviews! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Nora- I forgot what I was going to say to you.
connie- I'm so sorry for your loss, and I agree with Sparky. The shower is my favorite place to cry.
Humor blogger/writer James Lileks has a short video entry up on Minnesota Buzz.
I can' read anything that man writes anymore.

That I'm pretty and have shiny hair?
Good luck, omnis.
I don't suppose you could send your DH on some sort of errand to get yourself some private time, connie?
JZ!!! WHOO!! You go, girl!!!!
connie, I'm sorry. Can you tell hubby that you need some alone time? Or would that kick off the clinging instinct?
