They're even weirder looking when they get the hundreds of white egg things growing off their back.

edit Apparently, those are brachonid wasps.  Mmmmmm.  Tasty.

[Dullscythe]

Well. I was not the least bit freaked out by moths until now.

Thanks a lot, guys.

P.S.

[jaydub]

Me too, Wombat.  You're not alone. 

Bein' as you live in tobacco country, you probably see a fair number of these critters (they also like tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants).

[jay-ell]

Yes, because I spend so much time in outdoors, in the hundred-degree heat with 98% humidity, lovingly tending to my tobacco, tomato, pepper, and eggplant crops here in the idyllic pastures of my state capital. 

That's why I don't have time to reply to messages on this board mere minutes after they've been posted.  Because I spend all my time outside.  With nature. 

Hah.

See, now that's totally the image I had, all tousle-haired moppets tumbling at your feet, wearing a sundress¹, and occasionally sipping from a glass next to an icy pitcher of sweet tea shaded by the spreading arms of an elm tree.

¹You're wearing the dress, not the moppets

Just as I was about to reply to this, I spilled a whole plate of leftover chicken into my lap as I tried to eat on the couch while reading this board on my laptop.  I had to go change my clothes, which isn't that big a deal since I was still in my pajamas (at 1:30 in the afternoon).  Then I had to scrub stove top stuffing out of my carpet, because I accidentally stepped on it as I was leaving the room.  I'm just glad I didn't knock over my room-temperature Diet Coke in the process.  The whole time this was going on, my infant daughter was lying on the floor watching television. 

That's a somewhat different picture, no?

JL, you are such a disappointment to our Yankee pals. Try to be either a lot more squalid (trailer, meth, thong underwear peeking out of low-rise-jeans and soon you are getting mad rutty, etc) or more old-fashioned (verandah, sweet tea, mint juleps, sun-dress, etc.)

If you want that, jaydub, come visit me in charlotte and I will introduce you to some of my really old-fashioned-rich-and-southern female friends.

[jay-ell]

You can take the girl out of the midwest, but you can't take the midwest out of this girl.

Sorry, folks.  Ohio born and bred, no getting around it. 

I do like sweet tea, though. 

Tell me more about the PJ's and the texture of the stuffing against your toes...

Was this meant to sound like an obscene phone call? 

[lprkn]

Ash is just creepin' all over the place.

I want to make sure I'm in her (and all youse'es) next TOUAMBie flavoured dream.

In a good or bad way is irrelevant to me.

You have no idea how difficult it was for me not to add [edit: throbbing] to that post.

Sorry, my subconscious doesn't take requests.

Ey! Over here!

[theinevitable]

"hey, Katherine, may I present... golfhaus. I know him from the internet."

They would not go for it, sorry. We should hang out at least once while I am home, though? I get home tomorrow.
