I've been doing a lot of dumb things lately.

Last night there was a spider crawling on my computer screen and around the surrounding area. Insects often frequent my room and bathroom because they're close to a door leading outside and this is Arizona, so it's not uncommon to see a 3-inch-long cricket perched jauntily on the side of a trash can or even in the toilet, which is nasty. Anyway, it showed the propensity for leaping about alarmingly and for some reason I thought it would be a good idea to fix the problem by pouring water all over my desk. I was left with the continuing presence of the spider, and a very damp mousepad, which apparently was punishment for trying to drown it. It must be a very forgiving spider, because I saw it on my computer again this morning and I'm pretty sure it's still hanging around here somewhere.

And the day before that, I was vaccuuming under the aforementioned desk and heard a horrendous WRAKDGAGAFGGJHKGKGJGJGKGK, turned off the vaccuum, and saw my mangled earphones trapped inside. They didn't work anyway, but I got to see all the little wires and other bits and bobs sticking out. I felt like a surgeon who works on robots.

And the day before that, I ate a handful of tortilla chips out of a shifty, sticky ziplock bag. They tasted like they had been marinated in dust and mothballs and old ladies and were just generally the most horrifying thing I have ever put in my mouth. I spit them out after those ubiquitous first few seconds where you think you might be eating pure concentrated evil but want to make absolutely sure. They're still in the pantry because I didn't throw them away for some reason.

So that's what ticks me off. Me. The end.
