Ga-Jilli What???

Gajillipede....Only because they have a GAJILLION LEGS.

I'm laying in bed the other night, and i'm HALF asleep...I hear something that makes me open my eyes....and in my half state of consciousness, I THINK I see one of these crawling into the frame surrounding my window.

Now, my windows in my apartment were just replaced, so they are still open around the frame of the wall, and it's not very attractive looking, i'll tell you that much, but I'd rather have new windows, than old ones. So i wont complain....until now.

And of course, since i think i've SEEN one of these "common house centipedes" I cant generally go to sleep now can I???? So of course, I jump out of bed, turn my lights on, and rush around madly trying to find something to slam ontop of this thing....Of course, its not there.....and because I was half sleeping, I dont know if it was to begin with. That was 2 nights ago.

Last night, I'm laying in bed, trying to sleep, but I cant get the image of this thing out of my mind....I'd FREAK if I woke up one day to find one in my fucking bed....FREAK!!! So I'm laying there, keeping one eye on the window at all times. But nothing comes of it, and I go to sleep.

TONIGHT....if you are looking at the time this blog was posted, I started writing it at 4:57am.

I was up late...phone and all....trying to work some of my life out. I come out, because I know, of all people that are in the world, 5 of them will be awake and still on MSN. So, of course, I sign into MSN, and sure enough, there they are.....however I'm sitting here, talking about my night, when this little brown things runs across the floor by my feet. Of course, it's moving SO fast, it catches my eye, and I see what it is...And sure fucking enough, it's one of these Bad Boys...and of course, i'm like EWWW FUCKING HELL....

So I FLY out of my chair, as I know that it has run underneath my floor lamp and is just hiding out until the lights go out.....so when I pick up my lamp it takes off in all sorts of zig-zaggy directions, and I FREAK out, becuase if this thing touched me...i'd LOSE my mind. So I drop the lamp and grab the nearest kleenex box and start hitting.

For all of you who have tried to kill one of these things....you already know.....but for those of you who havent...they're so god damn resiliant, that I nearly destroyed my kleenex box trying to off this thing.

Well I succeeded, and now I know that I wasnt imagining it the other night, I HOPE that it was the one that I saw....but rest assured. I'm going to get bug spray tomorrow, and insist my landlord finishes my windows first.....
