I came to work early today (7:00 early!) to get some extra grading done and finish an induction assignment that was due Friday. When I stepped into my office, I was greeted by a 1 1/2 inch cockroach, dying, belly up, writhing about in my doorway. His little feelers were going a mile a minute. I could see his beedy eyes contemplating mortality. I swear it was one of the most horrible things I've seen in a really long time.

I couldn't help but think of Kafka as I smashed the little guy to smitherines and then scooped up his remains with a piece of paper. He had looked so sort of...human...dying there, so sad and confused.
