I love cicadas.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
That map doesn't even include my end of the country. Which explains why, when we got a couple of them a couple years ago, I didn't have a clue WTF was making that NOISE.
I don't think I've ever experienced cicadas? I'm probably imagining them entirely wrong
The sound of cicadas is the sound of a hot New England summer for me. I was probably well into my teens before I realized what the sound actually was: I think I thought it had to do with the powerlines.
No cicadas here, which I don't mind, but I do miss fireflies.
I am blowing off going biking with my sister and considering going to BevMo...
Cicada map, if you want to know exactly when/where:
Wow, so that must mean the DCF2F was 17 years ago.
I was thinking the same thing, because I remember us talking about them at Anne W's house, but now that I do the math, it was only sixteen years ago (2004), right?
The thingy was saying that next year is the target year, but this is the early birds, so next year will be the big year, I guess?
Embarrassing scenario: say you get scratched on your bare leg by a piece of old metal (kind of like thick wire, like you'd make a trellis with). It's definitely a scratch, not a puncture, but it's about 4 inches long and drew blood.
Do you go get a tetanus shot or not?
Teppy, you are the person I would ask this. No one is respecting their roles.

All of this make me wonder if I'm due for a tetanus booster or not. I might have gotten one a couple of years ago with a flu shot? That sounds right.
Anyway, I guess I'll try to avoid rusty nails.
