Lovely Bedmate

Last night, when Leah and I got done watching an episode of Will and Grace, we got off the bed and noticed there was a cockroach on the side of my mattress!!  I tried to not freak out, but I had seen one two days ago and couldn't help to think that I had been sleeping with the enemy for days now!!

I didn't want to hit it against the mattress, it would only get smushed and not crushed.  So, I waited and it slowly crawled to the wooden frame of my bed.  Then I attempted 
to strike!!  I missed and it scurried under my bed.  Now I was really panicked!  I wasn't going to be able to sleep, so Leah and I agreed to find it and kill it!

We stripped my bed, took off the mattress and flipped my bed frame up against the wall. Sure enough, the little devil was hiding in the corner of my bed frame.  I took hair spray and squirted it with all my strength.  It was not happy, to say in the least.  It became disoriented and fell off.  Then it was scurrying about the floor, both Leah and I were screaming.  We didn't care that it was ten thirty at night and the neighbors were sleeping.  We were very afraid!! After much screaming and attempts to kill it, Leah finally crushed the giant cockroach with my shoe.  We were happy, and sweating.  It was exhausting to try to kill it!!  

Even though I am terrified of these disgusting creatures, I say "Bring it On"!  I'm ready to kill.
