Facebook is making me crazy.

So much sharing of infinite cruelty.

There are so many animals suffering, that it’s overwhelming.

My arms are not *that* long.

Right now, I’m trying to get my mom to stop “bombing” her house and yard so savagely.

She cannot abide *any living thing* setting foot in either.

I have seen Katydids land on the side of the house and instantly start going into seizures, there’s *so much* pesticide around.

Aside from being heart breaking to harmless creatures, it can’t be healthy for her.

This will likely make you laugh.

We took the bikes out for a quick cold ride yesterday and about 30 minutes into, I felt something *squirm* inside my tight leather pants.

I touched the spot and felt a definite “somebody” in there.

So, I pulled into a shopping center, ran into the store’s bathroom and yanked down my drawers.

It was a stinkbug, who had apparently decided my stored-away pants were a nice place to over-winter.

It seemed okay except I think I might have hurt one of its legs when I touched it, initially.

I felt terrible about that but now the bug has all of Michaels Arts And Crafts for its winter abode.

Angst, thy name is Salamander.

:D

Yeah, I know what you mean. I bumped a spider's leg a few days ago and wasn't certain that I hurt it but felt very guilty for not watching what I was doing. It scampered away, but you never know.

I agree about the pesticides, too. I think my current neurological issues might have been caused by pesticide exposure.
