msmoon | Mass Migration (Reply)

There’s only a few critters I mind. If I see a bug I don’t know, then I generally don’t feel comfortable around it, and roaches are never going to be on my good list. But most insects and reptiles and small creepy-crawlies…they’re not something that bothers me. I even get the occasional lizard in my house (how is anyone’s guess), and I tend to catch them, talk to them comfortingly, explaining that they’re much better off outside where there’s ample food and then place them outside and let them scurry off.

But Sunday afternoon...I was feeling very very bad. So I went to my room to lay down and maybe listen to music or read or something…I laid down…and did a complete “...OMG...WTF! Quoiquoiquoi?” as I found small dots were crawling on my ceiling/walls. I quickly put my glasses back on, turned on the light and found 8 or 9 ladybugs all over the place. It was by far one of the most bizarre things that had occurred in the Nexus. Don’t get me wrong, I like ladybugs and all, but that doesn’t mean I want a mass migration in my bedroom. I’d seen a ladybug here and there…and I really didn’t think much of it. But this could not be ignored. I swept them off the walls (and they ended up flying off and walking on the walls over my living room, which I’m ok with since I don’t sleep in my living room), but not before I got it on camera. Not that ladybugs photograph well, but at least I still have that as a memory from my first house ^..^

Monday was hard...I just decided to take Midol all day long since my bloody hell week decided to cut short the PMS half of the cycle and save all the hurt up for the few days I am on my cycle. I told the girls at work, thank God for Midol otherwise I would’ve killed them all slowly. But, I made it through. Mom called me half way through the day and asked if I’d meet her at Chili’s for supper. We did, and we had a reasonably good time. Then she told me I had another package, which I was hoping would be the two copies of The Devil Does Exist that I’d bought. They’re late, and I’m anxious to get them in. So after eating we went over to her house and I grabbed my stuff. Turned out it was a gift from my Twin. I was a happy bunny. Of course, now I have more manga to add on to my Manga Wish list @ Amazon =..= Such is life. I called her last night to tell her how excited I was, but all I got was voice mail. And when I leave voice messages I tend to sound like a cereal killer...so I really hope it doesn’t disturb her ^..^ I just thought how funny it’d be if that wasn’t her voice mail, and someone who I had no connection to got that voice mail…especially with the Charlie the Unicorn references at the end there.

I also called Reiko and asked how much it took to fill up her tank, since I offered to pay for her gas if she was too strapped to come to our Christmas party. Turns out she and her boyfriend were looking for an apartment or house in Harahan, but before they could find one, her current roommate freaked out on them and threw her out. So now Reiko’s back with her parents…I, for the life of me, cannot imagine me and my boyfriend living with my parents, but I guess desperate times and all that.

I need more boxes...=..=’

Well, I’m going to work now. See ya’ll later, Sunshines.
