Before I procrastinate any further, I need to say something that went on in my head while bathing.
Why are there dozens of fruit fly bodies plastered to the ceiling of my parents' shower? As I desnarled the dreadlocks forming in my hair, I realized there were live flies buzzing around in the shower's lighting fixture. That was pretty nasty, but I still couldn't figure out why they were stuck there. After the battle with the anjhair was won, I looked up again. All movement had ceased, but there appeared to be more fruit flies plastered to the ceiling than there were previously.
So I guess the answer to the question is this: Hot steam is both an insecticide and adhesive.
eew.
