Imagine stumbling to the bathroom in complete darkness, and then you realise there's an unusual splotch on the wall, and then you turn the lights on and there's a giant mofo cockroach. Your apartment does not have roaches, but if one does appear it is a MUTANT HELL BEAST THE SIZE OF YOUR PALM.

So you grab insect spray, spray it to death, and it runs to the next room, only for u to slip because you sprayed so much insect spray it made the floor oily and you almost land face first onto said cockroach. Fortunately 🪳 was fast, and you can hear it scrabbling it's last few minutes on earth somewhere in the room, but for the life of me you can't find it's corpse, so you now have the fun task of unearthing its possibly mummified corpse in the bags of clothes and bobs you wanted to donate in the coming days.

And that's how I started my day at 5am today
