Holy Crap! There's a huge dead cockroach in my room!
It's in between my dresser and my bookcase. I don't even want to touch it because I have this irrational fear of cockroaches. I've seen some smaller ones in my apartment but this one is a monster. I'm so disgusted right now.

7. When I had a couple in my house
EVERYONE felt the need to tell me that for every one you see, there are THOUSANDS you don't. That kept me awake for several nights.

So, you say you've seen one cock roach...?

9. For some reason, crickets bother me more than cock roaches
They seem creepier to me. But, I never had cockroaches before, until this summer. Crickets I've had every late summer and fall. They make great cat toys!

10. I'm shocked that the cat didn't see it first.
He loves to play with bugs.
