ladybugs

and i'm not referring to the comic masterpiece of the same name starring the late great comedian rodney dangerfield.

what is up with all the ladybugs in bristol?

every time i open our bathroom window, they slowly creep in until there are 8 or 10 laybugs throughout the room. they are also supa dupa wary of people. i tried to get one to crawl onto my hand so i could show the kids. nope. this ladybug avoided me at every turn.

denied. by a ladybug.

like driving on the other side of the road, these ladybugs are black with red-orange spots and they are so abundant it makes me wonder if perhaps the ladybug is the official bug of bristol.
