I hate roaches!

I have an unreasonable fear of roaches. Silly I know, but I still have it. I scream like a little girl. Yes, me, screams like a little girl. Hard to believe. So, with all this stupid rain these stupid creatures have decided that coming into people's homes is better than just staying outside. They can live through nuclear war but a little rain sends them running. Explain that one to me.
My first terrible experience with a roach happened in college. One morning at NCM I was reaching into my closet to get a shirt out and a dead one fell on me. It was awful. I screamed and woke up the rest of the floor.
My second and by far the worst experience happened on my first manager shift at Quiet Flight. It was a Sunday morning at 8:30 am. I was cleaning and putting some things away and I walk into the Oakley section when this thing falls from the sky and lands on my hair and proceeds to crawl on my face. YES MY FACE! I screamed and threw it to the floor. Needless to say my scream sent all my boys running to see what was wrong. Around the corner came Shalon, Phillip, and Joey to see what was wrong. All I could do was point at this evil thing that had fallen on my face. It was awful and for about 6 months I couldn't walk through that section in Oakley.
So suffice it to say that when I see them I am not exactly eager to kill them myself. My father tried to kill the one that ran into my closet last weekend and while it was funny to see my father get on all fours chasing the thing around it was not killed. I have no idea where he went. I'm afraid he will be inside a shoe one day.

I tell you all this because last night I went to pick Bobbie up before we went out to Lights and Sirens and as I am standing in her kitchen waiting for her I see something crawling across a pan in the drying rack. It moves and I ask her to turn on her light because it was big. She turns on the light and we both scream because the damn thing was 3 inches long! 3 INCHES PEOPLE! Yes, I know that means this is a Palmetto Bug but all that means is larger FLYING roach! UGH! EW! So, she gets me a shoe and starts to remove the pots and pans from the drying rack. With each dish she takes out we scream because we see something move. She finally gets them all out and the damn thing is in the bottom of the sink....hiding! So we turn on the water and he hides on the side of the sink that is facing us so we can't see him. She peeks over the edge and screams which makes me scream and then says...."I saw an atenna." He goes to crawl out of the sink and I miss him and he dissapears down the side next to the fridge. All the while we are screaming like little girls. We promptly left after this because I couldn't handle any more. I HATE ROACHES!

I need to find someone to put on speed dial to come kill them for me.....Any Takers????
