They don't get to live with me until they start paying rent
This morning, rushing to my Torts class, I saw the first cockroach in the House of Fire and Motions to Dismiss. [1]
I don't know if he's part of an organized party, or just on an exploratory mission. But tonight it's time to sweep the floor up, lock and load the roach spray, set the roach traps, and drive the little bastards out. "Take off and nuke them from orbit... it's the only way to be sure."
My room's not very organized at the moment, but it's at least pretty tidy. I guess I'm lucky to have kept them out this long without much work.
[1] For those who've forgotten, the House of Fire and Motions to Dismiss is my dorm room.

ugh! disgusting. Just make sure you never step on one to kill it, because when you step on them, they exude fertilized eggs which readily hatch into the next 9 billion creatures.

Yeah, I spotted one in the kitchen today. I need to hit the store tomorrow and pick up some ammo before they get any further. Incidentally, I think I may live downstairs from you (wild speculation on this one). I ran across this sight at random, but you're style sounds familiar.
