Paige Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I captured the scary large flying insect that chased me from the swing into the house and wouldn't leave. I released him nicely but if he chases me again, I dunno...it might be the last human he chases because he's scary. I have no idea what he was. At first I thought bee, then wasp, then huge scary, moth, but maybe he was something altogether different. Nobody else cared to get him out of the house and there's no way I was going to sleep with him in here! The cats tried to help but they were useless too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 When I think of Thorin Oakenshield I am taken back 25 years ago when I was teaching junior high and directed the school play one year, which was The Hobbit. And the girl cast as TO was just amazing. It was a very emotional time for her that spring, her dad had just left the family for a little piece down in Mexico. But that little girl (she was a 7th grader) put all her heart and soul into that part and every bit of feeling went into her character. She was amazing. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paige Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 4 hours ago, KrissiK said: Was it a June bug?? No. It was large, mostly black, very aggressive, and had smallish for his size wings that looked kind of like a jagged screen door. I was swinging with the baby and he and a friend buzzed me, then circled me, I ran away pathetically but not screaming, and they chased me from the yard, up the stairs, onto the deck and to the door. I thought I was clear when I got inside, but one of them got in. He stayed for a few hours before I realized nobody else was going to hunt him down. I tried to google him but didn't see anything that was just right. I think based on other bugs and his behavior that he must be some kind of wasp. They are nasty creatures! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paige Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Buttercup, Snowball, Marilla/Anne depending on the mood. It's not from a book, but my kids and DH say I am just like Maya DiMeo from Speechless which I take offense to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only got through three chapters of The Hobbit and one of the first Potter. Though, I am going to do Peace Corps again when old and at that point maybe I will read them. I got a lot read in poor areas because they would turn off the generator at night. Now with smaller chargers I think my concentration will be gone forever. I will have to go truly native or something. I am not into Fantasy much in case you can't tell...but I truly believe in the power of literature to broaden one's mind so I am filled.with determination. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
