Invasion

This morning, I woke up covered in ants. That was new. It was also extremely annoying. On the plus side, the ants were of the non-biting variety but that's beside the point. I don't like the unknown creeping up on me.

Understandably, then, Liberians wouldn't come within 24 feet of me the week I had the flu. (These people will trek to work in the throes of typhoid but an American-style fever freaks them out.)

Alien things can be scary.

For example, a Swede brought this ridiculous thing into our home. It's fish in toothpaste form. It is now the first and only thing I see when I open the fridge.


It's scarier than the ants.
