to start a frenzie of deep cleaning. This morning Emily came into my room while I was feeding Isaac and said, "Just so you know, you might not want to walk around in the bathroom in the dark. I just almost stepped on a cockroach!"
She told me that because she knows I always am in the bathroom in the dark. I don't like to turn on our bright bathroom lights after 9pm because they are not conducive to getting ready for sleepy time. And we have a little night light, so it's not that dark in there anyway. But egh! I am going to have to be more careful!
This is luckily only the second cockroach we've found in our apartment--and the first big one. So I can't complain at all. Especially, I'm assuming, compared to my friends Elizabeth and Dave who live on Kawaii. :-) Paradise has its price, you know. But Houston-- although lush and green and quite beautiful in parts-- is not paradise. So I'm not sure what the cockroaches are payment for.
But they are good motivation to deep clean. So today, I poured bleach down our sinks, vacuumed in and under and behind our couches, and wrote down a long list of all the deep cleaning that needs to happen in the next few days. Anyone want to come help?

You should let the management know. They probably have a monthly pest control service (if they don't they should).
