I think it's a little too cold if you won't even leave the house

In my case, my mother won't leave the house. She's my ride.

it's so cold here my car died. TT_TT

Lots of peeps' cars are refusing to start.

I can't imagine what it's like living some place warm where you don't need block heaters and all that.

'Twould be a nightmare for me. Never safe from the horror that is bugs.

I use a cupboard full of essential oils for that.

I live out of boxes and bags until the snow falleth.

wait what? you mean food?

I think she means all of her stuff stays in a bag or box until winter arrives. :D

oooooh.

I bag and box all of my possessions to keep the demons sent to track me bugs off of them until blessèd winter.

I have no such worries, or my landlords would have heck to pay.

Without pest control, I surely would have been long gone by now!

some of our neighbors don't understand you can't throw oil down the sink unless you're super careful... bad things happened.

Torch it. Torch everything.

wait, what happens when you put oil down the sink?

We were talking about bugs, so I'd rather not know.

If thou answerest, spoiler it, please.

oh... yeah if it has to do with bugs i don't wanna know either. xD

Yeah. Don't need that paranoia. *shivereth*

I bet if you put oil down the drain, it makes the water slippery

Isn't it a thing that oil and water don't mix? Isn't that the combination?

yep, that's the thing.

just know this: to clean your garbage disposal, get a bristle brush with a rounded head, coat it in dawn dish soap, have a large pot of boiling water on the oven, and scrub out your drain like there's no tomorrow while running more hot water down the sink. just, don't look at the head until you think you're done. no one expects that to come out of their drains.

Family and I go together like oil and water.
