[if you get extremely grossed out by the mere mention of insects, then I'd suggest that you push the back button...]
This whole week for me has been freaky with insects...mainly roaches.
Last Friday, I was outside helping my dad and brother cut down a rotten tree in our backyard, which I was also multitasking with mowing the lawn. When the time for me to start mowing again, I saw my dad chainsaw the rest of the tree after all the limbs and all have been chopped off. The moment he chopped it in half with the chainsaw and when I passed by with the lawnmower, hundreds of huge...and I mean HUGE roaches, along with a big, lone lizard (What the hell? Where did HE come from?) came scattering out of the tree and spreading all out in the yard. It was like a horror movie.
Then tonight merely 30 minutes ago, I was in the kitchen fixing a late night snack when when two big spiders (Not that big. Maybe about an inch and a half long...maybe just an inch) were crawling on the floor and nearly creeped me out, as we never have any larger than a small bean in the house. After eventually killing them, I saw a pretty big roach by the sink, which I got the Raid spray and shot the crud out of it...but the bastard didn't die! If anything, he shook it off and dashed on the wall. So I grabbed all kinds of crap and smacked him with them, but...he still didn't die! Usually when I smash a roach, he/she dies instantly. But he eventually fell on the floor before I killed him with a great big stomp (Tales of Symphonia Eagle Dive, anyone?). So now we have indestructible roaches...?
Man, stuff's been weird, yo. Anyone else have insect troubles? (Yeah, this can be a general insect thread)
