Roaches Are Of The Devil!

It's monsoon season in Arizona. Temps drop slightly and the humidity goes up and for whatever reason THE FREAKS COME OUT AT NIGHT!

Two nights ago I found one in my bathroom near the shower.

This morning I found one "mostly dead" on the kitchen floor.

HUGE. DISGUSTING. SEWER ROACHES.

They are satanic, I tell ya.

And why on earth does Hollywood think they are cute? It really irritates me that in two recent movies these nasty bugs actually made it to the big screen.

I had the heebie jeebies during Wall-E and Enchanted when I had to look at them.

















NOT CUTE!

I hope they didn't get paid much.

In true copycat fashion, I added Twitter to my sidebar and I can text to it! Woot. I'm psyched.

I am blessed to be going to San Diego tomorrow. A friend invited me to stay in her sister's condo. For free. This free kind of thing doesn't usually happen to me so we are super excited. Four of us will be gone for five days. We will spend three entire days baking in the sun on beautiful Coronado Island in front of The Hotel Del Coronado. Sweeeeet. I will be texting to Twitter but I don't think I'll have access to a computer and Internet. We'll see.

TTFN and thanks for the comments on the last post!

Have I ever told you how much I love comments? ;-)

Hi Janet,

I've been away and just stopped by to see what you've been up to. The vacation pics are great. Hope to get there someday.

When I clicked on your Twitter, it said you don't exist!

I hate cockroaches, too. Thos ebig ones wander in our house sometimes, and I'm usually the one who has to kill them.

I finally did the Meme!

Enjoy San Diego. How nice to have a friend at the beach! It's been over 25 years since I've been to the Hotel Del - and I just walked through it - we didn't stay there....

You are so funny.
Between roaches and bats I'll take roaches.
Neither is my first preference.

I never saw Enchanted! Now I have to!

Have a wonderful time on the beach on your 3RD vacation of the summer.
Do you want to adopt me? I'll squish the roaches for you.

Do they carry west nile virus?

Lyme diesease?

Maleria?

Yellow Fever?

This summer has been all about prospective for our family. If it does not carry a life threatening disease, we can share the same planet without disgust.

Besides the enchanted roaches are so cute!

OK Janet- time to come back and blog.
Poor Donna just got an overload from me (3 comments! poor baby)
So if you want to spare her you better post some wild and crazy new update.
Because sadly I never run out of words. The words may run out of sense, but I excel at running on empty.
