They come back to life - I don't trust them! I have a totally irrational fear of cockroaches - if one were to land on me or crawl on me I would pass out on the spot. Oh I have a plethora of cockroach tales to tell - but I won't hijack your excellent, if not rather scary, post.

This morning the cat came in my bedroom window with a mouse. Im kind of pleased because its the first time in ages ive leapt out of bed with such gusto.

What purpose do they serve? Don't get many around here thankfully. Last one I saw was at the public swimming pool. Yuck! Can't read Metamorphosis without shuddering. In our little holiday house by the sea, we woke up one morning to find the perfect forearm and paw of a mouse hanging off a ledge. Nothing else. Just its forearm. We're still working out what happened to it.<br /><br />So you left the Turkish delights. They would have been first for me. And you've never read The Great Gatsby? You have a joy in store.alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09338687691871813019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-47326619448171607052010-04-27T02:19:32.364+10:002010-04-27T02:19:32.364+10:00I have the chills just reading this!
