Oh my god, I think I’m going to hurl.
Lately, our house has been invaded by large black ants. Not in the kitchen, as one might expect, but mainly in the upstairs bedroom and computer room.
I hate ants. I have a phobia of bees and wasps, and ants are just freaking walking wasps that bite instead of sting. Creepy little bugs that seriously squick me out. Especially the ones big enough to be wasps themselves. The ones we currently have are mostly around a 1/2 inch long.
Josh gets most of them (the ants, and last fall, the bees) for me, though I can get the odd one with my slipper if I have to.
Anyway.
Today I was feeling crappy, and decided to treat myself to some delicious Arby’s. I got a roast beef sandwich, and a Dr. Pepper. This pleased me. This Dr. Pepper came in a normal fast-food cup with a lid and straw. I left the Dr. Pepper in my room for about an hour because I wandered off and forgot about it.
See where this is going yet?
I then remembered the pop, and brought it into the computer room where I was sitting, playing around online. I continued to drink the yummy Dr. Pepper goodness.
After a little while, I saw a little black shape moving on the inside of the lid. An ant!
An ANT!
An ant in my pop that I was still drinking! o_0 o_0
And I know it didn’t get there while it was sitting at the computer with me, so who knows how long it had been in there, but it was at least as long as I’ve been drinking it in here.
I freaked out, I admit it. I can barely deal with the things on the wall, I cannot deal with them in stuff I put in my mouth. I shrieked, and then had to try to not vomit all over my keyboard. Then I made Josh dump it out in the toilet, because I just couldn’t do it.
I still feel shaky and queasy.
Blargh.
IN MY DRINK!!!
