For a while now there is a fly living in my apartment. I dont know how it got in there - I usually keep the windows closed (and even otherwise they have screens on them). Anyway, I was cooking the other day and there comes this fly zooming into the kitchen. Thats when I saw it first. I was making pasta, nothing too funny.

I dont quiet know what to do about it. Its one of those fast ones with a not-easy-to-ignore buzzing sound. And it just wont still, it insists on flying around. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to swat at it and such. I am not sure what to do ... spraying it with something like my deo doesnt feel like a nice thing to do. Also, I dont see how it can possibly find its way out.

I finally found somethng that gives me some peace, I can shut it in the bathroom - it zooms in there to annoy me when I go in. I let it out when I go in and then try trap it back in there again. Lets see how long this game continues.

If you can trap it in your bathroom, why not trap it ouside your house?

It doesnt follow me outside... it flys past me every now and then when I am on my laptop and such.

What is it with you. First the goat, now the fly...

It is the little bits of things that fret and worry us; we can dodge a elephant, but we can't dodge a fly. ~Josh Billings

Well, yes - its partly due to this thing called inertia that between me and the fly, the fly will have to do the dodging. It does bother me though.
