INVASION! Of the Killer Ants!!

*cries of terror resound* Well, more like mine and the L.S.'s shrieks and shrills of disgust and fear (bug-sized) of ants. The thing was that dad, L.S., and I were getting the wood from the trees dad had cut down into fireplace size and storing it for winter. It was going good and well, 'til, 'til, they came out! Uggh. *with shivers* One piece of wood 1 foot wide, 2 feet in length should never be able to contain such ant life. They were like the killer ants in the latest Indian Jones movie. (If not advent fan wait 'til it comes out on DVD) only they were black, smaller, and contain some flyers in their midst (I just discovered that blogger have spellcheck. Not ask how I missed the obvious ABC check mark sign. i can only think that I didn't recognize my ABC check mark sign for what it is. Might as well admit to my brain taking vacation, or maybe it left for someone smarter but I had to relay my discovery) Anyway we had to squish the little buggers, keep them from getting into the wood again, and create some detours from getting further into the garage. I hate bugs. /even the supposedly nice lady bugs, and those caterpillars too. Well, don't precisely hate the caters but they creep me out! Uggh. and again uggh. Anyway on the happier end (and less horrific :) part of my life I can say I will be going alone to camp. I think. Yes. No. Yes. Half-way. (the conver with the LS about camp) Anyway how did I put it yesterday? Yeah. :) My parents won't be there, but the supervision will be. That comment comes from the fact that I have never been two or three days without my parents near bye. So for me, the leaving part will be interesting. Of course, if I'm called upon to make a call I will instantly wish for the LS to be there to make the call. But maybe I could load off the little gizmo and duty to someone else. Just gotta find someone gizmo deprived. Oh, and did I mention? My tennies that I was using for bug extermination have a curious red stain that I can only hope is wood chip stain. Toot a loo!
