Apparently messed-up-ness runs in the family of the flies at this dorm. Check out this video of Fresco's Brother/Cousin/Uncle/Neighbor that I took today:
I met him while sitting on the toilet, of course. But when I saw him he was on his side, scooting in circles with his front legs. It was the weirdest thing. By the time I got back to the bathroom to record him, he had managed to kind of get upright and drag himself a little more efficiently.
Now he is dead. No lie.
As you can imagine, I am moderately concerned. Two flies show up in the bathroom with crippled/missing/extra legs and they twitch and turn and be all freaky and not normal and then they both die of natural causes??! Something is not right.
This calls for an investigation.
Maybe there is something poisonous in our carpet that messes up their development and makes them all crazy. I have no idea.
Hey, whatever is killing the flies is probably killing my poor plante! Okay we need to get to the bottom of this asap.
2 things:
1. Make sure you don't get too bored while watching the video and watch it to the very end because that's the best part. He starts creeping toward the camera and then he turns and shows his mad skills at dragging his back legs.
2. I was about to revel in my awesomeness at the first video on my blog but then I remembered that GP already beat me to it. Lame. But it's still cool.
And don't think I'm a freak for filming this. It's only natural. You would have done it too.
