My Enemy (post number 2, there's one more for today)

Brace yourselves for what you're about to see, it is very very gruesome and disturbing.



Make sure all small children are away from the computer screen.




Behold this horrible beast:

THE FRUIT FLY

Yes, my enemy is a fruit fly, or as I like to call them The Devil's Spawn.

Every spring/early summer we have a swarm of gnats that move in and terrorize us. There's nothing we can do to keep them away either...we hide our food, spray all the time, make sure we don't have water laying around but, alas, it's all in vain.

Yesterday, war broke out.

I went into the bathroom for my afternoon tooth brushing (kudos for me) and THIS GUY (see above) landed on my head. So, in regular "cool girl" fashion I hit myself in the forehead to try and kill him - seriously, I'm desperate to get them OUT of my house, so desperate that I'll even kill one on me - I told you this was gross.

This turd moves at lightning speeds - I should have known - and darted away before I could get him.

Take a wild guess where he landed. Yep. You're right. On the OTHER side of my forehead.

Guess who hit themselves in the head again? Yep. You're right. ME.

And he landed on my head AGAIN - and I hit myself on the head AGAIN.

I guess the brain damage from hitting myself in the head helped me to realize that I was fighting a losing battle so I grabbed my toothbrush and tooth paste and headed to the other bathroom.

Can't a girl wage a war against gingivitis without having to worry about sucker punches from the gazillion eyed enemy?

This is the only reason I can't wait until mid-July's heat when they finally GO AWAY.
