Oh my goodness.... Me thinks me is going to "WAIT" for this one. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ****staring at BOB **** 
My walk to the grocery store was rather CRUNCHY this morning. GOOD GRIEF... the SHAD flies ( May Flies ) are here and they are EVERYWHERE. I never get used to that sound. REVOLTING. HA.
We are in the middle of a heat warning.... so I am keeping cool and staying in my nice cool apartment.

I have been HIGHLY anticipating just HOW Mr. Moose is going to deal with this. OHHHHHHH the possibilities.
This could play out in so many various ways. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!

I rescued two tiny spiders this week. They fell into my sink on two occasions and got stuck.
I am on a secret mission at work. I am putting googly eyes on things. And I giggle when I do it. 
Now that's a conversation I would enjoy. Jason, why did you want to rescue a couple of tiny spiders and later what did you do to them?
I could not let them remain in my sink and I did not need to kill them so I scooped them up and put them on a bush in the yard.
I'm the same. I remember one Christmas we had a mouse in the house which is very very rare. I don't use mouse traps but a sticky pad that attracts them by smell so when they step on the pad they're stuck. I'll take them outside and help loosen them from the pad and let them go.
My cat brought a live mouse into the house once. That was... interesting. I managed to catch the mouse and release it outside without the cat noticing. The cat looked all over for that mouse but never did find it.
Good morning BOB..... I thought I would help you with your CHALLENGE of understanding acronyms.
PB cups = Pastor Bob cups. Have you NOT noticed that the CABIN cupboard is FULL of them???
WLPB = We love Pastor Bob
DSLPB = Da Sheep loves Pastor Bob
BRB = Bring radishes Bob
See??? Easy Peasy.
If you know... you KNOW..... These are the lovely SHADFLIES aka MAYFLIES that grace my city with their presence every year at the end of June. I kind of thought with the very cold May... they might be DELAYED... but NOPE.... RIGHT ON TIME.
This morning... as I was walking by the Shopper's Drug Mart... I saw a very young lad... who upon trying the door and realizing the drug store was not yet opened... uttered SEVERE disappointment. I stopped to tell him that the store opens at 9 am.... and that is when the STORY began.
( I still can't stop giggling ).My disclaimer is.... that INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS should be required to be MADE aware of the fact that in JUNE... my city gets BUGS... They arrive in flocks/herds/armies/droves. They make a mess... they stink... and they are extremely annoying... but.... I LOVE THEM. I welcome them but.... I do NOT name them... because there are far too many.
So... onto the story.... The young lad was distraught.... and he did not hesitate to tell me ( in his broken English ) that he is new to the bugs. AND then.... I UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING. HA.
I am certain that this poor boy had spent the ENTIRE NIGHT in his closet with a blanket over himself in SHEER TERROR of the bugs that were invading my city. HAHAHAHA. OH my goodness..... So..... I tried my best to keep my English very basic.
BUGS... good
BUGS.... no mouth ( I covered my mouth )
BUGS ... no bite ( I chattered my teeth )
BUGS ... die in 24 hours ( of which I added by crossing an X on each of my eyes. )
BUGS... gone in two weeks
The relief that I saw on this young man's face was measurable .... I told him... PLEASE do NOT buy anything for the bugs.
I almost fell over in the parking lot... but I did not want to roll in the bugs. TOO FUNNY.

funny story. weeks ago. I was working on IT stuff in one of our downstairs offices. I overheard them talking about killing this huge spider. When no one was around, I put up "Missing Pet spider" posters around the office. I said he went by the name Henry. He was the IT's office debugger.
It took them a while before they caught on and started to laugh.
"Debugger"...
