*slaps spammers around* where are they coming from?

I have officially earned a new title as of yesterday. Just call me The Killer of One Million Ladybugs.

Asian beetles actually. We went on a cleaning binge up to the Observatory on the Distant Hill (aka Pine Bluff) so we could prepare the white garage and the c-house for having a telescope in them this year. maybe. When we got inside the place looked pretty messy but not too bad, so I volunteered for the sweeping miniteam.

Big mistake. the place was OVERRUN with asian beetles... millions of them. Half of them were still alive, and underneath EVERYTHING (old vacuum cleaners, plywood sheets, scaffolding) thousands had congregated trying to stay warm. So every time I picked something up they flew at me all vicious like and I had to kill them.

Imagine sweeping mounds and piles the size of large pillows of squirming, moving, climbing asian beetles, writhing on top of the dusty remnants of their dead fellows.

*shudders* and then when I got home and went to bed last night there was one in the ROOM. I had to kill it. Bastard. Leave me the fuck alone.

Other than that, I'm up to 17k for nano. Maybe I'll add 5k more tonight if I'm lucky. Or maybe I'll crack down and do the homework project that is due Wednesday and work on the paper draft I need for Tuesday and the spanish homework for Monday

*laughs* maybe.

I am so impressed by your skillz!! I get queasy at the thought of killing creatures but I'm definitely a xenophobe about large masses of insects. I interact well with them on individual levels, but... ew to millions of them!

Stories I'm currently working on.

***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited)

***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel)

***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage)

***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit)

***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series)

***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly)

***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys)

***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting)

***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang)

***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!)
