I'm finally in an actual room in the house. An actual, honest-to-God, room. I'll be sleeping on a futon frame with a few modifications tonight. I added duct tape rings on the posts so that if any brown recluse thinks it an ideal place to wander, it will get stuck before it ever reaches me. We also set up the house to be anti-intrusive for bugs. That invovled a fair amount of screening, duct tape, and expanding foam. We filled all of the cracks, put screen enclosures over the ventelation ducts, and we set new traps around areas with high spider sightings. Oh yeah, we also made some make-shift weather stripping on all of the doors with duct tape. You really can save the world with that stuff... At least, in a physical sense.
Tomorrow I start getting ready for class, organizing my notes, collecting my intellecual mind, solving world suffering. Among that list of duties, I also might be mowing the lawn, maybe buying some bird seed for the yard so that we can attract more birds, decrease the bug population, therefore decreasing the spider population. We found out today that the neighbors are also having a bit of a problem, but we are determined to win. We have called this struggle The Battle for Ye Olde Pembroke.
Other than that, not too much is going on. I guess life can only be so exciting. Peace and love.
