The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

chiggers

Don't know about a powder, but 25% DEET has always done a good job of keeping chiggers away for me. And when I forget to spritz on the DEET and get bit, Chigarid is good at soothing the itching.

I went to the airshow last month just to watch the Harrier perform.

Not much detail, but it does not look like a brown recluse, and definitely not a black widow. The white things are probably egg cases. No need to kill it.

Not Billy, but I bet those are egg sacs.

I don't know what chiggers are, and I don't want to.

You know, those magnetic jars wouldn't be that hard to make. It's a question of getting the magnets.

I don't know what chiggers are, and I don't want to.

Little teeny tiny red bugs and they get between your toes and itch like a Mofo.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Steph, I have good news and bad news.

Good news: I also went there.

Bad news: I love Magnolia.

I think I knew that. I suppose you -- and JZ -- are allowed your totally wrongheaded opinions, though I weep copious tears for your wrongheadedness.

Heh. Teppy, I was hesitant even making that reference, knowing your hatred of Magnolia....

It's gotten legendary, hasn't it? Like Theo's hatred of JR.

Dude! I am already at the point where I itch all over. Don't make me itch between the toes!!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Pfft, have you been to Mercury? I didn't think so.

The surface of Venus is hotter that the sunny side of Mercury, the atmospheric pressure is 90 times that of Earth, and it has clouds made of sulfuric acid.

Oh, man. I need to watch that again. Maybe tonight.

Well, I didn't drown. And I can still swim, though my breaststroke is all out of kilter, and side goes crooked, but the crawl is still there.

But holy hell, I do not have the stamina I did back 12 years ago. I used to crawl for over an hour without stopping. Once did 2 hours (but I was running from demons, so not exactly healthy.) Ahh hahahaha. Yeah, I lasted 35 minutes with stops after every other lap to catch my freaking breath. It'll come back.

But I swam. And I had the lap lanes all to myself. And I checked out the gym and they have lots of treadmills and ...things I can use if I want to walk and the weather sucks. Everything faces the window out onto 33rd. Once I tackle these stupid shin splints. I really want to get around the lake this weekend, and if they keep up, I can't.

Guess I should make some dinner.
