le ants

remember a couple of days ago, when i found a wee colony of ants and wiped them up with orange fantastik? well, that happened a few days later again. didn't think much of it, as each time they were all gone and this was two different places--well, today, they were in the first place, plus a long line across the bottom of the island cabinets, plus around and up all over the giant tupperware we keep dog food in, and in several other places as well. i used a bunch of orange fantastik again, and the mop, and then i found the ant-raid and used that, and went to the post office. came back and opened the window. that stuff reeks. am worried, though. will the raid keep them out? man, this morning... that was GROSS.

aughh. well, i actually think they're coming in under the door from outside. i suppose i could line the door with peppermint or something (when the raid smell is gone from it). tried cinnamon last week, unfortunately. fanatic cleaning, ahahhaha. that is SO not me. i'm not-even-bothering-to-eat girl lately.
