Sadistic little buggers

October 17th, 2006

Yesterday the kids and I watched a boxelder bug land on the wall by the sconce while we were eating lunch. We kept watching it as it made its way closer and closer to the light.

The energy at the table started to increase as the kids started cheering this little bug on. It kept getting closer. Then the chanting started. “GO INTO THE LIGHT, WHERE IT’S NICE AND WARM; GO INTO THE LIGHT, WHERE IT’S NICE AND WARM!”

And just so it’s clear, my kids know for a fact that if a bug goes into the light…it will absolutely fry itself to death. And they kept cheering anyway.
