Random Thing #1
Inspired by that “25 Things About Me” meme that is all over Facebook–and which I’ve done–I figured I could use this space to let people know other odd things about me. Some of these might be long posts, others short. If nothing else, they will be boring and quite banal, but they will get me writing. Huzzah! So, now for Random Thing #1…
I am afraid of small insects.
Odd, eh? Note, this is only small. I don’t mind tarantulas. But a tiny little spider? *shudder* I love watching big ol’ butterflies and moths. But a small miller moth? Those small, harmless, food-for-swallows moths? Freak me out!
There is one exception to this rule: bees, wasps, yellowjackets…all those flying, stingy, yellow, black, harbingers of doom. I am scared of them all. Even the mundane honeybee that doesn’t want to bother me at all. “Run away!”
