As I Xi It v2.3

“Santa” wants me to delve deeper into myself…at the genetic level. I’m expecting diabetes to be right up there along with fatness.

In light of my recent post on annoying positive phototactic insects, today, I found various bits of insect carcass on my car.

Arachnid with one less leg

Vespid abdomen

Just as I was about to start writing, I noticed that I didn’t have a science category, but I do now.

I’m sitting at my desk and there’s a daddy long-legs (a.k.a. leather jacket, a.k.a Tipula sp.) who keeps bouncing into the lamp. You never see some of these insects during the day and at night, they’re all out and about, flying into various light sources. Why don’t they just come out during the day and fly into the sun? They’re just so gosh, darn annoying.
