I had a roach in my room.
Which is dedication on his work, because I live 4 flights up. It's a tiring effort sometimes for me to climb those 54 stairs multiple times every day, let alone a roach. But more power to him.
No really, more power, because it took me 45 minutes to kill that monster.
I was laying on my bed when I saw a black blob quickly move on the other side of the room. I thought: "Maybe a little bug flew right by my eye so it seemed really big and far away...?"
No. It moved again. Yikes.
After spending a considerable amount of time trying to track down the beast, re-arranging the room and everything (mattress off the frame included), I finally found it in the corner, under my bed, half a foot up the wall. Those things are seriously fast!
Different theories were shared on how to kill the villain...
#1: Church shoe...
#2: Bug Spray...
#3: Rain boot (with thin box extension)...
#4: Broom
The winner!?!...
#4
As my friend Kristi reminded me, there's a reason they say roaches are the only thing that would survive an apocalypse.

This seriously cracks me up! No, wait. It terrifies me.
You should have just let it be your pet.
I am simultaneously digusted and totally proud of you! PS...I laughed so hard at your pics in this one!!!!
I'm with James... put him in a plastic box and have him in your classroom. Especially after your unit on caring for pets.
I hate roaches. I've had too many horrid experiences with them starting at a young age. They terrify me and make me angry all at the same time. I need to move to Alaska or something... So proud of you. That was no easy task.
Haha... We used to catch them. One hot summer night a bat flew into our window... The first time I saw that episode of the office I may have peed my pants because the exact same thing happened in our apartment.
