grasping at straws - 06:40 PM
(filed under 'general')
things i'm trying to convince myself are better about spending friday night at home instead of at bruce's house for the evening as i have been for just about eight months:
- i can pack the car (for work the next morning) at any time instead of having to get it all done early in the afternoon so i don't have to then pack my car late at night after returning from bruce's place.
- i can have a leisurely late night shower if i choose.
- i don't have to use nice manners & help clear the table after dinner.
- i don't have to pack a bag of clothes to change into after work since i'll be going home instead of back to bruce's place to spend saturday afternoon there. (*sob!*
)
- i can refill my waterbottle at my own house using my lovely new reverse osmosis filter instead of tap water.
- i don't have to remember to unplug my EFTPOS terminal from charging at his house & pack it back into the car late at night.
- i don't have to carry a sleeping smiley into the car late at night.

how to get rid of my pet fruit flies? - 01:13 PM
(filed under 'animal')
ihad a 'pet' mouse or two for a little while. they went away, thankfully.
now i have these pet fruit flies that will not go away. i've been trying keep the stuff that they like out of their way, but then i have a fruit bowl. is it only rotting fruit & veg that they like, or will they keep hanging around the fresh stuff, too?
is there a way to get rid of them or will they eventually disappear on their own now that they have nothing to eat or sit on or whatever it is that they do with rotten fruit & veg? i won't use any type of chemical spray, so no need to suggest something like that.
