Let's see...

In the recent past, we've had...

1) Plague of Fleas*
2) Plague of Windows 7
3) Plague of Weevils

and now

4) Plague of Insurance **

Is this some sort of localized apocalypse?


* Brought on, we think, from Toby's brother's dog. Under control now, yay.

** Got to physical therapy today, only to be turned away because the insurance company my employer pays to pay for these things hasn't yet deigned to reply to the worker's comp people about whether or not they've approved these additional 3 days of therapy. Because why would they bother?

It is, in fact, an apocalypse. Next up are the rain of Gatorade, rolling brownouts, and the death of squirrels.

In our previous house, the death of squirrels would have been welcome! Well, until their corpses started smelling up the attic...

I'm actually on the lookout for the Death of Rodents here at work. They're doing HVAC work and week before last the banging about in the ceiling on my floor managed to dislodge a shower or rodent droppings on the floor outside my office. Not in my office, luckily, but STILL.

I don't know about a localized apocalypse, but you may want to have either a competent shaman/shamanka or an old priest and a young priest come by the house. This is the kind of sequence that leads up to the walls bleeding and the toilet ordering you to GET OUT.

Naaah, I think its just the kind of thing that happens in waves. We saw a huge roach in the kitchen the other day, and then this morning, the Mr. saw a mouse. This, after no sign of either problem for a couple of years.
