Anyone have a pet frog?

Can we borrow it?

Our place is being attacked by flies. Gross. Big. Female ones.

We have no idea where they're coming from. We’ve only lived here since November. It’s been pouring outside and the windows aren’t sealed tight – is the rain driving them in? I set up an herb garden a few weeks ago – was there a nest buried within the soil? We generate about one small bag of garbage each week, so I’m pretty sure it’s not that. We are clueless.

I’m in the middle of reading 2nd Samuel right now, but this morning I opted to flip back through the Old Testament and read "The Plague of the Flies" in Exodus, just for kicks. I sort of got caught up in the whole Passover story and was reminded that there was a plague of the frogs too. So on second thought, don’t send us your pet amphibian.

In other news, I’m buckling down big time this month with lots o’ deadlines, so I need to say bye-bye to the blog until May. See you then. Um, then again, I cannot let a “fly” post sit on this site for two weeks (eww), so I’ll post again in a few days.
