Fearless Roach Slayer

Came home tonite around midnite and as I emerged from the bathroom after my shower, there was a big and honkin space waterbug sitting in the middle of the living room. Just sitting there, like he was waiting for me to crank up the Tivo.

So I grab the can of spray from the closet and chase the damn thing across the living room and the kitchen until it finally has the grace to keel over and die.

And then I ran in my room, locked the door and waited for TehJerry to come home and dispose of it. *bows*

Now I can't watch TV b/c the smeel of insecticide is way too strong in the living room. But that should be a good deterrant for any friends or relatives of the deceased who may be lurking nearby...

And I should go to bed anyway, but for some sick perverse reason I decided instead to google "waterbug", and

This is what I foundl

Which totally cracked me up and also made me feel quite courageous....

Ever seen "Joe's Apartment"? ;)

I do not think I wish to.

I have however seen many times the cockroach ep of XF, which still never fails to crack me up.

I'm with Yllek -- that link was absolutely hysterical! Deborah would be very proud of you that you killed it yourself!

I must make a note to tell her! Fortunately the police arrived as scheduled and disposed of the body w/ a ziplock body bag...
