• Ants

The house that Teddy and Rena's mom is renting has ants, tiny helpless black spots that clamber across the kitchen countertop every morning. I have to kill them. I have to. As I wield a paper towel I apologize and wish them well on their journey. And I feel like shit.

The only thing palatable about this task is cleaning the counter afterward. This orange scented eco-conscious cleanser makes me want to take home a bottle in my luggage. Would that be weird?
