Busy busy busy

Busy? Or procrastinating? NO! Definitely busy. Although, I have to admit, there is a teeny-bit of procrastination inserted somewhere.

Anyways. I'm trying to be more of an active blogger but it's so hard to-- to what? It's not hard! It's easy. You just do it. So what's keeping me from doing it? Darn! Lazy... But I'm not lazy... just that, it's not that important so I kind of just shrug it off.

Today, I got up and grabbed my flashlight and pointed it under my bed because I've been paranoid these past week. One day, I got home and noticed something. Giant red ants with wings! On some parts of my baseboards near my bed. Nasty! I vacuumed them up. Since then, I always look under my bed and the places where I found them. So back to the present. Again, I got up and grabbed my flashlight and looked around. Nothing. Normal. Played with my phone for a few minutes and sat on my bed. FEW MINUTES! I got up again and there's like 20 of them buggers next to my bed!!! I'm convinced there's a hole in there and their nest is just nearby. CREEPY!

Grabbed the vacuum and got rid of them pests. Was afraid they'll start multiplying inside the vacuum bag. I left for the grocery store and bought some baby powder. Apparently, they don't like baby powder/talc and suffocates them. Did some research. Vacuumed some baby powder for the ants in there. Then I sprinkled some on the spot where I believe is the entry point. So my room now smells like baby powder.

So that's my rant. I hope I never ever see them in my room again. Ugh!
