I'm About to Lose It.

For those of you who don't know, I work in the basement of our building, or as the company likes to call it, The Plaza. Um, yeah. Whatever. So, anyhoo, my department is directly under the building's deli. Why is that important you ask? Because we regularly have infestations in the ceiling....ants, roaches, rats....you name it. NASTY. And we are the only part of "the plaza" to have these infestation problems. Now I'm no Sherlock Holmes, but wouldn't one think that these nasty little creatures are COMING FROM THE DELI?

Some of you might remember my post regarding the roaches that FALL TO MY DESK from time to time. You heard me. They FALL. ON. MY. DESK. WHILE. I. AM. WORKING. They drop from the light fixture down to my desk. The first couple of times it happened, there was no warning. Just a plop, and there it was. A roach in front of my keyboard. The last few times, however, I at least had a few seconds of scratching on the light fixture and enough time to look up and see the antennae coming over the edge of the fluorescent light.

So today, just now, it happened again. Scritch, scratch, plop. It's no less shocking the fourth or fifth time, I can tell you that much. It's hard to work when you're worried about things falling on you. Ick, now I feel crawly all over.
