Say your prayers, dirtbag!

When I leave my house in the morning it's still dark out. As I was driving, I noticed something on the right windshield wiper. At first I thought it was a leaf but it had a strange shape. Then I caught a better glimpse of it under a street light. It was a praying mantis that was holding onto my wiper for dear life. I'm guessing this was its version of a roller coaster. So for the better part of my drive this morning, I was trying to figure out what to do with this thing. I didn't want to smear him across my windshield. And I didn't want him crawling back under my hood which is where I'm assuming he came from. He finally moved and went under the wiper so I then used the wipers until he finally flew away.

THERE ARE TOO MANY DANG BUGS DOWN HERE!!!!

We're having a really bad thunderstorm right now. I'm not looking foward to the drive home. Charleston is known for flooding. At least I don't drive a low-rider. I'm thinking the shade in my windshield is a bit useless today. It was sunny when I got here but now it's as dark as night outside. These are the days to be at home, on the couch and either reading a good book or watching game shows.
