Things are good at site these days and I think I have finally learned to deal with a lot of the wildlife that has decided to take up co-residence with me. I still find a lot of the little buggers really annoying but at least they don't gross me out and make me screech like they used to.
The Ants in my tea, well ya know they are dead, I did just boil them so they are sanitized so I shouldn't need to be worried about them. So while I picked some of them out of my tea I just drank it and enjoyed the loveliness of a cup of tea and wrote it off as a little bit of extra protein.
The weevils in the flour are obnoxious and I do pick those out, they look gross and are bigger than ants and have really long pincers so I am not really interested in eating largish bugs with pincers that is just too much for me. The weevils in the flour really make making pancakes a pain in the ass.
As for the lemur in the roof, I really don't know what to do about that. Do you all remember when I told that story about the lemur that Mbola had that he named Emma? Well I have recently become convinced that it is living in my roof. During the cyclone I lost part of my roof and had it rebuilt and then I noticed that every morning when I woke up there were bits and pieces of the roof (it is made out of leaves) on the floor. I thought maybe I had rats but then one night I woke up in the middle of the night to hear all this noise in my roof and really not wanting to have the rats get any closer to me I pulled out my flashlight and shined it in the area that the noise was coming from and what I saw was not a rat but a lemur. Now I am not absolutely positive that it was a lemur, it could have been my imagination, but I think that is what I saw. I have not seen it since that night, but this animal that has built a nest in my roof is not a rat, it dose not sound like a rat or poop on everything or destroy things like rats do. So I continue to believe it is a lemur, and now the question is what do I do about that? I love lemurs and am really enjoying the thought that one lives in my roof, but I am not such a big fan of the holes it is putting in my roof. What would you do if you had a lemur living in your roof?
