It's warm today. Very warm. Like, cook-bacon-on-the-sidewalk-warm. It's an extension of the weekend weather, really, where temps were in the 70s+.
And boy howdy are the bugs enjoying the extended summer. The Japanese beetles, of course, are out in force, although not nearly as thick as they were during last year's Indian summer. There are a lot of them, to be sure, but not the thick, choking hordes we've endured over the past few years.
This year, it's apparently the Box Elder bugs' time to shine. Good God there were a lot of them on the side of my house Saturday afternoon. I mean, there were literally hundreds of the creepy crawlies.
They don't bother me. Mind you, I don't necessarily LIKE them, but they don't unnerve me or anything. Melissa, on the other hand, reacts as if they're the spawn of Satan. I like to tell her there's a bunch of them in her hair, and just sit back and watch the show.
Yeah, I'm an ass like that.
