The South...

has pretty much cured me of my fear of bugs. Down here, it's impossible to walk 5 feet without running into some 4+ legged creature.

Oh that, and there is no such thing as seasons. It's hot or hotter.

Another random finding. StumbleUpon is the greatest new invention. It takes my boredom and tendency to procrastinate, and runs off with it. I've wasted whole afternoons stumbling. Fun, but also detrimental to those who thrive off of a clean house.
