I saw my first lightening bug tonight. As if the 90 + degree heat and oppressive humidity weren't enough to alert me to the fact that summer is here, this sealed it.
Do you guys have lightening bugs (or fireflies, or glowworms, however you call them) where you are or are they strictly a southern thing? I love them.
Of course, I'm a sucker for anything that glows.
To my sister: Hey! Remember that time when you were little and we saw that lightening bug fly into the spider web and then the spider got him and slaughtered him mercilessly and then we had to tell you that he had escaped and flew away but it was pretty obvious by his frantic buzzing that he was in the throes of death? Yeah...remember that? Good times.
I hope we can afford to get the air conditioner in the old beater fixed for summer or driving around in this heat is gonna be a bitch...and so am I.

You know what? I have never seen a lighting bug but it is on my bucket list! Really! Since I was little I have always wanted to see one but we don't have them where I live. One day!
