Missives from the Front

[snicks_chan]

Nick and I spent the long weekend with the Wilmington folks, watching lots of movies and trying new restaurants. We even managed to squeeze in between all the other tourists for an afternoon at the beach, though we made the trip out to Topsail island to avoid as much traffic as possible. I've had a pretty nasty head cold since last Thursday, but

Brave woman! We should organize a search party and rescue her immediately.

It may be time to graduate from Roach Motels to full-fledged MOUSETRAPS.

I trust all felines are present and accounted for? It was late evening when I got over there on Saturday and joked that the boys would just eat Gigi if they got too impatient. I got inside and here comes Renault, here comes Rick, aaaand...no Gigi. Fortunately she was just the last one out of the cat bed all three had crammed into, and was not in fact, eated.

[snicks_chan]

Yup! They were way less clingy than expected, too, though Renault managed to get himself stuck behind the washing machine this morning. There is nothing more hilarious than a half-wedged cat being taunted by a tiny kitten.

She has developed a habit of racing around the house, growling under her breath. I am not sure what to think about that.

[mixmastermike]

She's not growling. She's making race car engine noises.

Do not make me laugh when I have a cold! It goes: HahacoughhackOW.

Emma and Frankie used to do that same thing, but...less aggressively.

[muffins_of_god]

HOly shit. XD That is a big roach.

(Also, one of the funniest things I've ever read)

I agree with Angel...we need a search party.

[snicks_chan]

The state of her roommate's kitchen has been an issue for a while, so I am NOT surprised to hear that it's bred giant roaches...

[dracothrope]

Oh wow, that's epic AND awesome! XDDDDDDDD

Godspeed indeed!

[snicks_chan]

There are ROACHES down south. They are EVERYWHERE. Luckily I have cats, who like to kill them and roll on the carcasses.

[dracothrope]

Eugh, that must be awful. Up here if we get beetles bigger than my thumbnail I get the nervous sweats. It's more often little spiders and centipedes, but living upstairs, that makes things a little less buggy. XD

[halofire]

Okay not centipedes but millipedes. In my house. Blargh.

[snicks_chan]

I have seen those crawling around outside. I think most people on the first floor have to deal with them. This is what happens when you own a ground-floor space!
