Tears were shed tonight...


Out of pure fear.
I found him
on my bedroom floor
laying on his back
flailing his legs, arms, antennas
It took me 20 mintues and 4 phone calls to get the courage to move get him off the carpet and into the toilet. Be thankful i didn't load this picture full size. He was like 3 inches long. k? :(

THAT is disgusting! Sorry you had to kill it yourself...I hate it when I find myself in that situation when Rich is gone!

I feel your pain. I found one about that big (although it seemed HUGE at the time) in my sink!! I was literally frozen with fear for a minute or two. Then I turned on the water and washed him into the drain & turned on the disposal for about ten minutes.
The first time I saw one in Houston was the first time I'd ever seen a roach. And I was 23.
You have to love the NW.

All I have to say is, Kari, get used to them. That one was average in my book. Our dogs food bowls is one the the neighborhood roach's best hangouts at night....too bad in the morning they're all dead cuz they can't climb the smooth walls.

After almost 8 years here now, those ones are nothing compaired to the fat, black ones. I make Will dispose of those.
