A Moth + Face = Dead Johnny, My Computer

Today I am posting a blog from a loner computer, yes a Loner!...
The time was 8pm. Place Faircloth Dorm. Why because of Mottephobia (a fear of moths). It was a breezy beautiful Saturday Night which is perfect when your room feels like...So anyways. My roommate thought she had the stomach bug and the A/C was off so we opened the window to get the cool air circulating.
I'm in my room with my roommate, I am sitting on my bed. My bed is raised high enough for me to need to use a stool to get on it. I'm on Facebook looking at my cousin's pictures. When all of a sudden a MOTH hits me in my face, I jump and my laptop, which was on my lap goes flying. The screen hits my stool. I grab the laptop while my roommate kills the mean murderer, the moth, and I see that the screen is totally messed up. My computer was murdered. So now it is 8:15pm. Then, my roommate yells out, "Don't look, it's another moth" I'm flipping out. She said it went under my bed and I lost it. I made a mad dash out of the room and went into the Parlor while she tried to find it and DESTROY it. She looks for another 15 minutes and she said she couldn't find it. I'm like well I can't go back in there, what am I going to do? She leaves to go out with her guy friend back at home and I am stuck in the Parlor, alone. So it is now 8:40 and I call my mother and tell her that my computer died and she asked me how it happened and all I said was, "A moth". My mother knows I am deathly afraid of moths, I guess that's a reasonable explanation. I called Tech Services and left a message and I dropped Johnny, my computer off to the hospital Sunday afternoon. He needs some surgery done and I don't know how long it will take but hopefully he will pull through. My friend lives on the 2nd floor of Faircloth normally kills the bugs for me. She wasn't on campus that day she went to work. She didn't get off of work until 11 so I was going to wait in the Parlor til then but then she told me she was spending the night at her house since the lights and stuff were off. So I got a hold of another friend who lives downstairs from me and I ask her if she can find and KILL the nasty moth, she is afraid of moths too, no where near as bad as me but she thinks they are gross. I told her she can spray it with Raid and she agreed to do the job. She brought her roommate for support I guess and they searched my room for 20 minutes. Then we decided to turn off the main light and turn a lamp on to see if it will fly over to the lamp. They found it and sprayed it with Raid but it didn't die it flew around and landed on the wall. They threw books at it, nothing happened. So I went and asked someone down the hall and see if they could kill it. She grabbed a shoe at hit it and it fell to the ground and flopped around like a fish out of water. And she picked it up with tissue and threw it in the trash...
I look in the trash and the moth is still twitching so I drowned it in Raid. It finally died. That Moth was on Steroids or something, it did not want to die.
By the time the moth was dead it was close to midnight. I waited 4 hours for someone to save me. Thank God I have some amazing friends who will go through all this trouble to kill a Moth for me. If they weren't there I would have slept on the couch in the Parlor.
They need to put screens on the windows so this won't happen again.
So that was my weekend...After writing this I need to be laying on someone's couch. I need to find out why I am so scared of Moths.

Gloriana Concert

Friday was the Gloriana concert and Tyler from One Tree Hill opened up for them.
The Concert was amazing! First Concert in Raleigh starting it off right...So during Glorinana's performance they throw their guitar pics 4 were successfully caught. The last one that was thrown hit a girl in the head and couldn't be found after that a few girls searched the floor but an epic fail. We found at 30 minutes later over hearing a conversation leaving to go home, the pic was found...It bounced off a girls head and landed in her shirt...Well isn't she lucky.
I wanted a pic so bad!
