Reason #567 that I'd rather be in Michigan for the summer

Imagine my disgust when upon making breakfast, this nasty creature decided to crawl into my sink from the drain.


I just about threw up.

This is the time of year in St. Louis when these little guys rear their ugly heads if you live in an old house. And we do. I've been told that they eat other more harmful bugs, but come on. Aren't good things suppose to also look good?

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I can not express how disgusting these things are to me. The great news is that they ONLY COME OUT WHEN RUSS LEAVES TOWN. I'm not kidding. One of the many I killed last weekend was at least 3 inches long. I had to take a moment before I kamakazied him.

So if it makes you feel better Gina, I had a small one of those in our apartment a couple weeks ago :-) So new is not necessarily different! What a great woman you are, breakfast this a.m. at 5? You are amazing!
