La cucaracha

Today, I had my first experience with a horrific creature in my shower. Have you ever seen the movie Arachniphobia? (my dad would appreciate this reference) Well, it was kind of like that, but instead of spiders, they were CUCARACHAS!! (COCKROACHES) O.K., so there weren't thousands of them, only two. But two was all it took for me to be screaming and swatting at the shower curtain until it fell down. I then yelled for Seba's help. He proceeded to squash one with a flip-flop. The other got away by scurrying under a dresser. I expect to come face to face with it again as it seems to be a very stubborn cucaracha. Will I face my fear of giant, ugly, roaches when the time comes again? No, I will probably scream like the girl I am and require the assistance of a 13 year old to save me from a creature that is the size of a 50 coin peso. So I don't like bugs, who does? I never claimed to practice Jainism and be above squashing a cockroach for my own well being (rather, watching someone else squash a cockroach for I am not that brave). Although my mom swears that cockroaches are prehistoric descendants of the dinosaurs,  I will play the role of an evil, selfish homosapien that insists that all cucarachas that try to get in my shower will be punished with a size 8 flip-flop. Thanks for reading! All is well in Argentina!
