I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I remember when I had a mouse. I freaked the fuck out. I was hoping the board would save me, but alas, all I got was someone suggesting I store my crumbs better next time. Strangely, there were no magical powers exerted by my computers. I just had to freak out. It sucks. I'm sorry, Dana!

Yeah, this.

I do have a coworker trying to get rid of two cats, but I bet she's hoping to find a taker more locally.

mr. flea found out last week that roaches can fly (by having one he was trying to kill take a kamikaze run towards his head). He was all, "Did you know this!?!" and I just laughed.

I hate the South's gigantic bugs.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

So Tabloid reports of Track Palin's drug use are office convo here. I had not heard of all that.

This just makes me want to smack the media and say, "Dudes! Stop wasting your time on her family and start focusing on all the screwed up shit SHE has done!!!"

ARGH.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

mmmm, I'm eating Trader Joe's basil tortellini. Is very good.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, I caught it on a glue trap. It's okay for me to feel guilty about the flailing, right?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

That cake head is seriously wrong. And it looked to me as though the helmet was pale pink with a bow on top ... which is really odd.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Really, my biggest comfort is that it's not a flying roach. It actually might be smaller than a roach.

Ugh. I'm still not over that one.

This just makes me want to smack the media and say, "Dudes! Stop wasting your time on her family and start focusing on all the screwed up shit SHE has done!!!"

Yeah. Hello? Darlings? Y'all are taking the fucking bait.

Yeah. I hate those traps. Can you drown the little bugger and put it out of its misery?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Any solution that requires me walking over there is not going to work.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It's okay for me to feel guilty about the flailing, right?

I usually seal the trap inside a couple of plastic bags and hope they suffocate quickly. The glue traps are less humane than a snap trap, but they work better. I just steel myself with that thought that once they've entered my house, it's war.
