No Worries/Living with Ants

I have no worries. Tomorrow will be my last day of physics class. After that, and a online homework assingment and a lab, I'll be on vacation until September. That is pretty good news to me.

I've decided not to keep my student job in the fall. I really need to focus on graduating. I know I can do it, if I put my mind to it.

So, here is where the ants come in. I have a terrible ant problem here in my apartment (I call it the ant situation). The kids will not stop feeding them! Whenever anything spills on the floor, I can count on there being a whole army of ants hanging around the kitchen.

This afternoon, I got out of the tub and put on a towel and walked into the kitchen. Of course their were so many ants there, it was disgusting. The kids had ice cream for breakfast this morning, so the ants had a little treat. I knew I couldn't kill them all by stepping on them, so I searched under the sink for something to kill them with.

At first I found some non-toxic kitchen cleaner, called Sun & Earth. The ants would've laughed at me. So I grabbed the toilet bowl cleaner, with the handy angled spout. I squeezed it towards the ants, and they all but melted. Their little bodies fell apart. I hate killing ants, but at least I have something to fall back on in case this computer science thing doesn't work out.

Oh my god. They fell apart?? I think that would have made me sick. hehe

I hope you have a nice break before school starts up again!
