So here I am, naked except for my slippers, getting ready to take my shower. I pull aside the curtain to start the water, and as soon as I do, I see some movement.

Well, it's a COCKROACH AS BIG AS MY THUMB. I shut the water off and slam my slippered foot into the tub, yelling who knows what. Steve comes running into the bathroom asking, "Are you all right?" It takes a couple of good stomps just to STUN the thing, but I get some toilet paper, show it to Steve who says, "Wow" and flush it down the toilet yelling, "Die, fucker, die!"

I'm in a generally aggressive mood right now. Time to sleep though.

Oh ick. I hope it's the only one.

One can hope. There was an old lady down the hall who has recently gone into a residence, and a good thing too because she was way too frail and "out there" to be on her own.

Steve went into the empty place after she'd gone and he says the place was infested. So that is probably where this one came from. I'd never seen anything like it. When I tossed it into the toilet, it swam until the flush begain.

Sheesh...

I'ts almost the same here in my house... but with SPIDERS instead of cockroaches. It doesn't pass a week without me atleast seeing one of those critters strolling around. I usually ignore them, unless they get too close for comfort or my little sister sees one of them...

Then I must make a run for my boots to stomp on it, otherwise I don't want to think about what will come in next. Which usually means I'll have one big fright or my sister will almost panick upon the sight of the eight-legged thing.

Sheesh.

The house I was staying in in Puebla was Spider Village, but they were all normal size, not huge. The scorpion weirded me out, though.

I DECLARE GENOCIDE AGAINST THE ROACHES IN THE NAME OF ALLAH!

How's that?
