cry wolf

B.O.U.R.Girl screams for me from the wardrobe like the actress that she is, “there’s a b-b-b-bug!”. And yes, it’s a big dern cock-a-roach trying to blend with my maroon bath towel. I grab a hind leg with bare fingers only to lose the rest of the body into the shower mat below where it tries furiously to entrench and burro in. Gottcha, uh huh. I’m rewarded with a shot of stink and the creature rakes my finger with its other barbed leg but I cling and rush the perpetrator over to the toilet and bombs away. I had to wash hands (twice).
