It's not worry so much as awareness of my situation. I try very hard to always pay attention to that.
The only place I get nervous is the parking lot at school when I'm up there for an event after dark. It's just sort of creepy somehow.
Evenin' everyone!
EEEK!!
Just as I typed that, a baby salamander climbed up the wall right next to me.
Scared me to death! I thought it was a cockroach!
Evenin' evellybody... :-) [sip]
Gots creepy crawly things? [sip]
It appears so.
One of those transparent-looking pinkish ones. It's small, maybe about 2 inches from tip to tail - but it made me jump outta my seat. LOL!
Prolly scared the little fella WAY more than he scared me.
I think salamanders might be worse.... especially creepy clearish pink ones.
The only reason I can live with the salamander is because I'm certain he'll eat the cockroaches that sneak in.
The lesser of two evils.
On my way home!
She's back! Just in time for Ophelia!
*grin*
I've been back, Master Stormhands. ;-D
And I don't even want to ~hear~ about another storm. I'm trying to get to Tampa on Thursday!!
Do salamanders really eat cockroaches? Cool...
They sure do! And mosquitos too!
For the love of all that's good and holy - what the HECK is that picture?
Hah!!! Funny...
Evening - those are amazing pictures, these aerials only give us a glimpse of what happened, so thankful that all your family made it out okay.
I was looking at some aerials on a USGS site, showing which barrier islands are still there and which aren't. Simply amazing.
Can you 'splain it to Jen?
Jen, short version.
It's a scene from a movie with Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding, Jr. Cruise is a sports agent. Catch phrase in the movie is "Show me the money!" which Gooding has Cruise scream out while he's on the phone.
I cut and pasted Mayor Nagin's face on Cuba Gooding's body.
It's prolly far less funny with the explanation.
spammich?
