Beware of Mothra

I know I'm very behind on my blogging, but I've got several things I've been meaning to blog about. Instead of doing one huge catch up blog I'm going to space things out and put up a blog a weekday until I'm caught up. Without further ado I give you Beware of Mothra, circa May 2009.

So I was having an allergic reaction around the house, specifically in my room. I went searching under the bed (a potentially very scary place) expecting to find something along the lines of toxic mold. Instead I found moths. Lots of moths. They ate my bed. That's right ate my bed. A colony of moths had moved into my box spring (yuck!) forcing me to throw out my mattress and clean everything. In the cleaning process moths were also found to be in my dresser, in the closet and under my bookshelf. I was forced to wash everything piece of clothing I owned. To this end I went to the laundry matt to get it all done in one fell swoop. The problem with this? Most of my clothes are hang dry only (it's a tall thing...shrinkage is our enemy). I ran out of room to hang things rather quickly.

The result:


My four post bed frame became my lovely new drying rack. The old saying is true, necessity is the mother of invention.
