Put a fork in the sink--10 minutes later you have "ant fork".
Put the toaster away and forget a few crumbs on the counter---"ant crumb".
Open your dishwasher---"ant dishes".
It's disgusting. It's gross.
It's $90 plus tax to get taken care of.
Goodbye partial highlights and haircut. Goodbye pedicure. Goodbye eating out. Hello Common Sense Pest Control.

Bek, just think about Graelyn's party as eating out because you get dessert afterwards:) I'll even have your beverage of choice there for you...sorry you are having to deal with ants...it sucks...love you friend...oh yeah, we're coming over, we have clothes to give you:)
Aw man! That stinks! I hate it when I have to spend $ on stuff like that...OR...like the stinkin' $257 I just had to pay to the city of Colleyville for a stupid ticket. Yeah, sure Mr. Policeman, pull over the lady in the TAURUS and not someone in one of the BMW's or other fancy cars. That's just great.
I understand that if you use last Sunday's coupon for Raid at Wal~Mart while performing a headstand wearing strips and flowers of some kind you can get it for free. I'm just saying...
For real? Totally will do it!
You could always borrow some of Sarah's gorilla glue...
Sarah needs to report that her Gorilla Glue fix for the ant problem did not work.
All said and done, the ant problem was fixed today for $97.43 and I got the bonus of a sermon for free. The pest control guy is a Christian and he is writing a book titled, "How to explain the trinity in a puppet show". He asked if he could give me the 5 minute version of his explanation and 20 minutes later (during which he asked me to go get my Bible) he was finished. He really is a very nice man and the cheapest pest control guy around but when it's noon and you have a 7 month old waiting for lunch in her high chair.....it just wasn't a great time for theology.
Rebekah -- this is kind of weird, but I just a message from this guy asking me to put this comment on your blog because he doesn't have a blogger account and you don't allow anonymous postings...so I've pasted his message below.
Dear Rebekah,
My apologies if my puppet show offended. Was it because the third puppet of the trinity, the Holy Ghost, was invisible? Please, you must have faith. I have only two hands, you see, so doing a puppet show on the trinity is rather complicated. I would expect you, a fellow Christian, to understand this conundrum...yet I should have known you wouldn't when I asked you to get your Bible and you had to search the house. I inspected the binding on that Bible, and I've got two words. Like. New. There, I said it.
I will say a prayer tonight that the ants come back. And if you call me again, I will send the Holy Ghost puppet to help you with your pest issues. See what you think of my puppet show then...
Signed,
The Bug Man
Holy Crap!
Holy Crap!
That should have only been one holy crap, not two. Dumb blogger.
I just want to know where you can get partial highlights, a haircut, a pedicure, and dinner out for $90 plus tax!
Partial highlights and haircut $65
Pedicure $18
Eating out--Ok, it'd be fast food but $20
Em--we have choices down here in Texas!!
I kind of like that you had two Holy Craps...because that's what I was thinking as I read the Bug Man's response to you.
First Holy Crap:
Where did Jenny think of the "checking the binding" part of her comment. Holy Crap that's funny.
Second Holy Crap:
Possibly at 10:14 this morning Jenny decided to quit working at her corporate job and decided to check blogs. Did you walk out on them Jenny, all Jerry McQuire-ish, and tell them they could take their jobs and shove 'em...you've got more important things in life to deal with...like checking and commenting on blogs damn-it!?!?
What? I'm just askin'.
Where did I come up with the binding line? You mean you don't always inspect the binding on someone's Bible to tell how good of a Christian they are? Geez. Better keep your Bible away from me, then.
As for reading blogs at work...I am just doing consumer research to better understand our customer base in order to maximize and leverage our targeted marketing efficiencies. That's what I plan to tell my boss if he catches me.
Yes, after writing sentences like that, I think I need to walk out all Jerry Maguireish.
You had me at Holy Ghost puppet. You had me at Holy Ghost puppet.
Did you know the human head weighs 8 pounds?
Did you know that bees and dogs can smell fear?
Did you know my neighbor has 3 rabbits?
I love the movie quote game! However, I was not as good as rebekah in making it into a Holy Ghost reference. kudos.
HOLY CRAP!
HOLY CRAP!
HOLY CRAP (that's 3--which is for emphasis) --NAN started a blog! There's nothing on there yet but I bet soon, oh very soon, we should expect something very exciting! I, for one, can't wait.
One question:
If I continue with my plan for the "Mr. Potato Head's Salvation Salad" show, is that copyright infringement?
NAN looks like hoot celebrating Cino de Mayo.
OK, y'all were just waaayyyyy too clean with the "holy ghost puppet" thing...sorry...I'm a theatre teacher and am a huge fan of puppets but geez...I went straight for the gutter (yeah yeah, I live there)...holy ghost puppet...he he...he only has 2 hands...this pest-y Bible Man COULD figure out another puppet I'm sure...well, I could...yeah, yeah...but all I'm sayin' is the show "Puppetry of the Penis" wasn't popular for nothing...didn't see it, heard about it...literally a REAL show...live show and not just in my bedroom...ok, I'm done...well done.
Angie -- I am very sorry that lightning probably just struck your computer.
We were suckered by that Christian stuff too. Then he killed us.
Sincerely,
Ants
If that was seriously Rob, I'm cracking up...you are funny!
