Yesterday, misting the fuschias in that perfect window of coolth (opposite of warmth :-) before the moving line of shade dissolved in the sun’s heat – I saw a spider, one leg monitoring his web for telltale vibrations, waving his arms menacingly at a small, passing hover-hornet (those tiny little black-and-white-striped ones). “Hey, hey,” he seemed to say, “Watch out for me, I’m gonna eat you.” Reminded me of the crabby crabs guarding the vent ports along the sewage treatment pipeline in Finding Nemo.
About Me
- grasshopper
- Grasshopper is, at the moment, still 'under construction' :-) She's trying to learn, and trying to keep a 'beginner's mind' while doing so (hence the moniker). She is also stubborn, willful, headstrong and ornery. She does things her own way. (She's also trying to give up 'being nice'.)
