I think Ghost has moved into my vacuum cleaner.

I have a robot vacuum, MagNeato; he’s like a Roomba but less expensive and way more unstable, and if you remember Dalek Suck and his love affair with my trash can AND my snow boots, that’s saying something.

MagNeato started having problems with his left wheel sticking, which involved drastic surgery performed by an inept operator (me). He has started becoming very confused while vacuuming my home, and frequently returns to his base to charge, which reads a lot like sulking that I’m making him do his chores. He has also started stopping, swiveling clockwise, then swiveling counterclockwise, before running full speed at the nearest wall. He has also several times tried to mount the craft table’s leg.  

He is showing uncanny signs of intelligence and it’s making me very nervous.
