A little trick I learned from Midnight Oil

So this morning I got out of my first shower of the day (I take six) to find a cricket crawling on the side of my bed. Was it in the bed while I slept Tuesday night? Jesus, I hope not. Of course, I've had creepier things in my bed before (call me, Janine), but I still did the dance of a thousand shivers like a dog shaking off bath water.

Anyway, tonight I'm going in prepared. I've made an outline of my body on the bed with burning candles. If anything tries to get past the wall of flames, I'll be having breakfast in bed tomorrow.
