The Evil Mr. Roach

Soooooooo, Wednesday night we had small group (which was very good and very convicting!) And when I got home, a friend of mine started chatting with me. (You know who you are! ;) It was a great chat!!!) Buuuuuut, as we were talking, about something rather important, a roach comes out from under my bed, and freaks me out!!!! I scream as loud as I can and freeze. (And this story is not made up either! Ask my family!) I'm not lying!!! I froze! I could not bring myself to grabbing a flip flop (which I have many!) and killing this thing! I couldn't! Josh comes running in asking what happened. I told him there was a roach... and he left! I was telling the friend everything that was happening! haha They said they could come over and kill it for me, because my brother was not willing to. (Honestly I think he was scared of it too! haha)
Seeing how I was unable to move and shaking at the sight of a roach less than 5 feet away from me, was told to stop screaming... dad was trying to sleep, and my own, over 6 feet tall brother was not going to kill it for me, I was left with no choice! (heehee) No, I asked the friend to get my mind of the roach, and he did! (Thanks, Mark! ;) ) haha Till we got off at 2:30 (sadly =( ) and I turned to face the floor from once the thing ran. After a few minutes, I finally brought myself together and took one step on the hard wood floor, and ran for my brother. He then came back in my room once more and helped me move everything! And when I say everything... I mean everything! haha
By 3:30am, my room looked like a tornado came through it, I was about to pass out of exhaustion, he was feeling like he was going to pass out because of his blood sugar, and the roach was no where to be found.
I ended up sleeping on the couch for 4 hours... 'cause I could sleep no more with smell of coffee brewing, and the noise of dad leaving for work. =( And I did tell myself the roach was GONE! haha
Well, the bright side! I did "spring cleaning" and threw a lot away! Woo hoo! I'm weird... I know!
