We took little ranger on a walk last night and there were two little girls down the street yelling half was across the neighborhood "CAN WE PET YOUR DOG?" Of course you can so here we go across the street. The older one (like 6 or 7) is holding two jars, and as we get closer they start doing that thing that children do, they just start rambling about how dogs can sleep outside or in cages (?) and how they have two grasshoppers and one of them is a red baby, etc. We started doing that thing that grown-ups do, nod and say oh wow, thats right, thats pretty cool. So they pet Ranger and then I look at the jars. One indeed is a little green grasshopper, however, the red one that's a baby turns out to not be a baby grasshopper but this guy...
Right. Keep the lid on little girl while I slowly back away for my life. I inform her that it is a wasp and she should keep the lid on and give it to her parents. She casually blows it off and says as we walk away, "No wonder he never hopped."
Dear Lord, please let me have funny funny kids that don't catch bugs.
