'Shindig'
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The other exterminator just called back, but they can't come until next week either, and they were kind of sketchy about what the prices would be, so I'm going with the first one.
I think I might stay at a hotel or something for the first couple of days after they put the traps down, unless they're really well hidden. I know that I can't handle seeing that.
Yuck, Hil/ My brother's students are getting their work in, so thanks for the vibes.Sometimes I think he takes it on himself a bit too much, but I know they are tightening standards for those schools, too.
Also, this may be kind of a crip-specific frustration, but my mother really has to stop acting like "we" have a cracked bit of skin on "our" ass. Like, really, especially since it's been enough days that she's a bigger pain than the spot itself. I wish she had a garden. Or a day job...or something else to cultivate besides me.It's hard too, cause this isn't really a situation like with an able-bodied teenager...where I could do it myself but maybe wouldn't take the fourteen steps the doctor recommended...I do need some help with it(and really wish I didn't for the first time in a while...the condo isn't big enough for full-on #MothersFromHell and it's like the more frustrated I feel the more she wants to show me how There she is...
The exterminator is here. I told him that I'm extremely phobic, and asked him to please just tell me as few details as possible that would let me avoid seeing or picturing anything. He seemed to understand. I'm waiting outside while he does whatever he's doing.
Yay! It should be straightforward for him to deal with any issues.
He did some stuff, and sealed up some gaps in the outside wall, and told me to avoid one closet, and he's coming back on Thursday.
That sounds nice and specific without being traumatizing. Are you over your stomach bug?
Pretty much over the stomach bug, I think. Still not totally better, but I ate some noodles and tofu for dinner, and my stomach isn't protesting.
The exterminator came again, and he said that everything should be OK now, and he's coming back once more next week.
