Dust bunny alert!

Dust bunny alert! OMG, they are the size of housecats. The dust bunnies are so out of control they have actually killed huge spiders and lizards that have become entrapped in their wooly paws. I love my husband, I truly do, but he does not understand house maintenance. Armed with rags and sweepers and long-poled whackers I began to attack the thick layers of dust, mites and mold. The wise old spiders scurry, remembering what it means for mom to come home. The others will die – if they are too stupid to get out of my way, they are shown no mercy. (Look, I’m just helping evolution along. There are way too many creatures in this house right now to be merciful.) I can hear the skittering lizards but they are hiding from me; I see that their eggs have hatched; they are reproducing; it is like a miniature Jurassic Park up here in the loft; I must hunt them down.
