I Hate Cockroaches!

Sorry for the straightforward title. I know I should not have published if I would just be sharing something you definitely did not ask about. But then I remember this is a platform I use to exhale my thoughts freely, so why would I bother filtering my contents, right?

As long as I still follow the rules, I am good to go. I post informative articles, I also post articles where I can share my faith and beliefs, and the rest are about my personal experiences, and preferences. This blog is a perfect example of what I mentioned. *(And my personal favorite. Why? Because I don't have to stay too formal nor restricted in expressing my thoughts.)* Tonight, I have really decided to not post, but washing the dishes made me do it! You know, our *free-renters* are in it again. I don't ever get used to it. These *best friends* are lurking again, because the dirty dishes are still undone, but as always, I don't let them get their way. These friends are called ****cockroaches****. Whatever you call it in your homes, or places, it doesn't really matter, I am just sure to say, *I definitely don't like them, even just a bit*. I may be kinda too harsh on my wordings to say, but I find these creatures really disgusting. No matter how we try to get rid of them, they just get more and more! If you aren't aware of what I'm talking about, I will show a picture below. *Warning though, if you are sensitive to seeing bugs or insects like these, just close your eyes real quick and scroll, to skip. This image may or may not haunt you in your dreams.* Ready to see what it looks like? Brace yourselves. In three, two, one...

**Okay, I apologize if ever, if just in case, someone out here loves this thing.** *(I am not sure of someone really does, but I think there is still a probability, even just as low as 0.01%).* Maybe someone reading this, is fond of taking care of cockroaches. Some regions, actually, cook these creatures and they say it's best when fried, because of you know, the crispy texture outside, but lean and juicy inside. I am sorry if my words did not click right. I am also sorry to admit I kinda puked a bit just writing those words. I deeply apologize. But I just wanna be real, and I don't wanna sugarcoat. So, please bear with me. So this cockroach was eating some small pieces of food inside the small trash bin near the sink, where I am about to wash the dishes. Being a silly person I am, I decided to drop some liquid bleach directly on its face while it's *eating* a treat it found in the bin. This roach was of course affected and it started to move even feebly. I started to pour a bit of vinegar too, and by the way, gas, as well. What went in my mind to do that? Nothing scientific really, I just thought I wanted to torture this little roachy so it won't even think of crawling outside the trash bin. *Oh, but it did!* One reason I hate them too because they are hard to kill! Sometimes, we just hit it with a slipper with all our might and think it was dead, but guess what, after a few hours, it would just move again, and probably recover somewhere we can't possibly find it. They are fast crawlers and of course, small, so when they just run under the cabinets, or between the gaps of our unfinished wall, we won't be able to catch and get rid of them. So *Roachy* crawled on the edge of the sink, on the wall in front of me, and it even made its way near our dish rack! Gosh, I can't count how many times I shrieked while trying to just lure it into the sinkhole and just probably flush it inside. But you know, when *Roachies* start moving fast, I am a scaredy pants. ***Especially, when it starts flapping its dark wings and start to fly, goodness, it's the start of a dreaded scene. I may almost pass out, while trying to go into a place where it won't touch me.*** To cut this crap short, I was successful. Mission accomplished, sigh.

Now, I don't plan on making this blog focused on that deceased creature. So, let me talk about other things I wanna share today. I am happy to say I was able to finish 97% of all unattended stuff on my read.cash notifs. Be it the *Subscription* filter, or the *comments and replies,* even down to *upvotes* and *sponsorships*. I finished most of them within the day, and I feel so proud being able to do that. Interacting with other users here is time-consuming, but I still can say I always had fun and learned a lot whenever I read across twenties, even fifties of the articles I have read today. Special shout out to my latest sponsor that I accepted without any second thoughts, @**Jane** ! You are gonna be my 12th sponsor in my journey, and I am always thankful. *I have developed a somehow different habit here that I find just okay*. When I open read.cash, the VERY first thing I do is Click the notifications, and go straight to the subscription filter, and read all the latest work first. It's so funny I don't check my own published article first, but I just want to start my day reading about something new. I always read more or less than thirty articles each day and I find it fulfilling. Interacting in my articles is the last time I do, and I make sure to read and reply to all the feedbacks and insight my readers would comment on my articles. Thanks to this supportive readers who trusted me. I am feeling extremely sleepy right now. Yup, my body quickly got used to that 10 o' clock sleep time, and it struggles to stay awake until 12 a.m. now. My eyes can't, even yesterday? I was only able to hold on up to thirty minutes past 11 pm and I just slept while commenting on a post! So yeah, I actually slept early last night, unlike how I planned last Friday, Lol. Right now, I honestly dozed off a multiple times before finishing. Thankfully, I woke up and was able to continue up to this point. I am about to give my eyes a beauty rest for tomorrow's Sunday Service. So, from here, I want to wish you all a good and nice sleep, and have sweet dreams. I know I could not put more sensible things as I am really drowsy at the moment so let me end this random blog, with a big thank you, plus hug, to you who reads this. Until Next Time!
