There are crickets. Everywhere. In my house.
Sitting here at my desk I just saw one, out of the corner of my eye, DROP FROM THE SKY onto the guest bed. Two nights ago when I went into the guest bathroom and flipped on the light, four crickets looked up at me and said “Do you mind?”
I am in a surreal dream-state because I got very little sleep last night. I was up until 2am reading The Nanny Diaries and then subsequently worrying about the welfare of children everywhere. Why? Why do I torture myself? I had to get up and deal, because I have a child who does not sympathize, the way my mother did when I was back in CT last month. She saw how tired I was, took Kyle off my hands, and sent me upstairs for a nap. That is the kind of mother I want to be.
Anyway, I am still up because I am waiting for the clean sheets to dry so I can put them on my bed. Meanwhile, I am trying to find the opening in our house that is letting all these crickets in.



moms are the best.
Yikes crickets are harmless but so frickin annoying.
Let me know how you like that book. I have a copy of it but have yet had the time to read it.

Oh, I do NOT think I could stand to have crickets invading my home, dropping from the sky, and worrying they would hop on me or my baby while I was trying to sleep!!!
