Run with the big dogs

This post is not for the squeemish.

A wok of mine has been in the 'washing up process' for two days. This means filling it with water and then returning to it at a later date when I am feeling more upto the rigours of dish washing. So today when I came home the friend currently staying with me noticed that a slug was hovering at the top of the wok, seemingly drinking the water. There was some dismay, nobody likes seeing slugs much less on household equipment. Nevertheless we decided to let the 'washing up process' continue. Just now I went to the kitchen and noticed that the slug was gone. They are not known for their fast movement. I look in the water and there it is the poor thing, all curled up at the bottom of the water.

I feel vindicated somehow. As if he came to teach me a lesson on washing up things promptly, and I taught that little lesson a lesson.

Bara aya.

	the washing up process entails filling up dishes with water until end of process. in my first year of undergrad my room was plagued with cockroaches. after an initial period of retreat I fought back with all I had. shaving foam, tooth paste, cologne, you name it. the most effective I found was colgate, the one with the microgranules in it.
