Adventures in Arachno/Clauster/Theophobia
Aug. 23rd, 2009 01:11 amSo I have a bedroom.
Inside this bedroom is a hot tub.
Inside the hot tub there are mirrors.
So far, so good.
Outside the hot tub, there is piping.
Lots of piping.
Somewhere in this piping.
There is a leak.
That part's bad.
But what's even worse
is what's underneath the hot tub.
Underneath there is moisture.
Underneath there are chemicals.
Underneath there are bugs
Many of them are dead.
But not all.
So instead of being something that brings people squealing into my bedroom
it's more likely to drive people screaming out of it.
This is not its purpose.
Something must be done.
Underneath there is also a hole.
A big hole.
A hole that leads to outside.
With nothing at all in the way.
Which means that although I'm sure my list above is correct,
it's likely not complete.
What could be down there?
Rats?
Snakes?
Dick Cheney?!?
And now it's extermination time.
Which means I have to go in there.
With the bugs, and the hole, and maybe an angry balding neocon.
It's narrow and hard to move in there.
Especially when you're as tall as me.
Definitely not possible to move fast.
Sometimes not possible to move at all.
I will bring poison.
I will bring sticks.
I will bring light.
I will bring courage.
Wish me luck.
Remember me in your prayers.
And break the door down if you don't see another post sometime tomorrow...
