Another Moth, and my downtown commute

Moth battle #2:

Another giant moth flew into my house this morning. I trapped it in my washroom again, and I'll go after it once I return from work. Thank you, Donkey_oatie, for suggesting Godzilla. I'll have to summon him when I return from work. Until then, the moth is stuck in the pitch-black confines of the basement washroom.

And now this leads me to the question: Why do the moths love hanging around my back-door?? What's so special about my door?? I assume it's because I get the occasional spider, which the moths will prey on. Or perhaps they just like clinging onto the screen of my storm door? I will never understand it and I must find a remedy soon. I don't want another moth battle. There is a 40 watt bug trap at Canadian Tire, which I am seriously considering buying. Most likely, I won't buy it because then I'll have to clean dead insect carcasses from the trap, and I've heard that smaller insects can explode because of the high voltage... ick!!


The Downtown Commute:

Today at the bus-stop was Weirdo (went to highschool with him but don't know who the heck he is). When my sis and I first noticed him, he kept staring at us - this was a few weeks ago. And I swear, today, he was trying to listen to our conversation. Hey dude, it's rude to stare, and rude to eavesdrop!! Leave us alone, you freak, and mind your own business!!! On the bus, though, we are blissfully unaware of him, yet I remain slightly uncomfortable. I wish I could squish him like a bug.

But then, soon I'm off the bus, and the ritualistic harassment by those newspaper employees begins. NO, I do not want your free newspaper - they're tabloids! The harassment begins daily when I enter the skytrain station, as I leave the skytrain station, and three more times as I walk to work. At least 5 times, I'm asked if I want a newspaper - if you're newspaper was so read-worthy, the newspaper companies wouldn't need to hire people to pressure the public to just take ONE, for FREE! Instead, they'd be flying out of the newspaper boxes on a regular basis, without harassment from other people.

Anyway, that's two days of ranting in a row on my blog - boy I'm in a bad mood!!
