Unwanted Insects

Fresh back from her conquest of the roach in the dishwasher, the fly's decision to buzz around her head was a fatal one.

With her adrenaline flowing, she was of no mind to tolerate a buzzing fly, especially one that had been pestering her for the last 15 minutes. As it circled her, she picked up a towel and swung it thru the air in a wide arc.

Whop!

She missed. But the concussion stunned the fly, who went hurtling across the kitchen and landed in the dog's water bowl.

I don't know if it buzzed in the water or not, but it makes the story better. So imagine it that way, if you will. The fly went hurtling across the kitchen and landed in the dog's water bowl where it buzzed and sputtered and spun in circles -- and caught the dog's attention.

He walked up to the bowl, stuck his nose in to investigate, and then I am sad to say the fly was no more.

She held her arms up in triumph.
