Lesson Number One.. Aka: Someone tell me why I'm up at 2:11am anyway??

Holy.

Shit.

Anyone else afraid of spiders?

Because I sure am.

I literally just killed one HUGE wolf spider, and two smaller "unidentified" spiders in my kitchen. And I about peed my pants.

Greatest part, I'm currently watching The Grey and I find it "fitting" that a massive wolf spider be lurking in my kitchen doorway.

Does anyone else have that "stand off" when they see a spider? Or a snake or whatever unsightly critter you might be accustomed to stumbling upon in your neck of the woods. I don't know about ya'll, but EVERY TIME I see a spider, it's like a switch is turned off and all body function ceases. I have this stand off with it, like the creepy little bastard is about to shout "DRAW!" and whip out a tiny little revolver or something.

Cue old-school Western music.

Worst part of it all?

FRIGGIN' FLY SWATTER WAS MISSING.

Lesson numero uno in what I'm sure will grow to be quite the list; when it comes to ANY living situation, I don't care if you're in a dorm, an apartment, a house, hell even a treehouse in BF Nowhere, always have some way to take care of pests. Either make sure that your college dorms/apartment complex/whatever has a pest control service that they notify, allows you to do it yourself (bug bombs, Raid, etc.), or that in some way shape or form, those little shits can be taken out. Sooner the better.

Seems far fetched, but the "Infested" shows they have on Animal Planet and such are very possible. Like any problem, when left untreated it can go from a relatively small issue into a BIG, icky, nasty, crawly mess. Nobody wants bugs and shit ninja-ing around their living space. Not only is it just plain gross, bugs carry so much nasty crap that you can get preeeettttyyy sick, pretty fast once they set up shop. And having to find a doctor (possibly in a different town) can be a hassle as well as an unneeded expense.

You're in college. You're broke. Don't be dumb and kick it with bugs. That's icky.

Instead, do what I do and (after the initial stand off) go all 300 on their ass.

Then bug bomb the shit out of your place because their family WILL COME AFTER YOU.

It's like the spider Mafia.

Can't say you didn't see that one coming....

Well anywho, my movie is over and I am officially creeped out. Now to watch SNL and pretend the last two hours never happened.

Thanks and Gig 'Em!

[Night Ya'll]

Ps. Why are all title sequences and end credits accompanied by the creepiest music imaginable these days??
