Yesterday Noon: discovered the army of (returning) ants that marched out from a tinyyy hole in the wall crack which the sun shines on.
Last Night: a baby lizard crawled out from somewhere in between my paper boxes.
This Morning: a huge (those can fly de lorrr!!) cockroach was on the ceiling corner, that happens to be directly above my sleeping side.
WTH!!! Pest Society ah?
