Emphasis on CREEPY
Today I take PJ to this thing called the Creepy Crawly Bug Show being held at a friends' house. There will be something like 30 children there. It's by a guy who runs CoolBugStuff.com. Me, I am petrified of bugs. Just looking at the home page made me physically shudder. As far as I'm concerned, "Cool" and "Bug" in the same sentence is an oxymoron. The petrification is in direct proportion to how big and hideous the bug is. I.e., I am actually phobic of palmetto bugs. What am I doing in Florida? LOL But I bet the kids think it's awesome.
Afterwards we are going to our friend's house in the area and going on a backstage tour of the Broward County Fair, which should be a little more my style. Plus, it'll fulfill one of PJ's Bear Cub requirements for his Farm Animals elective. He's having a GREAT time with the Cub Scouts. I wasn't sure he would, but he's getting so much out of it. Yesterday they built a toolbox. PJ had never used a hammer before, but boy, did he have a good time hammering away. My thumbs are black and blue as a result, but it's a small sacrifice. ;)

Dec. 4, 2006 - Bugs are cool!
My name is Seth. I own Cool Bug, LLC and www.CoolBugStuff.com. I did the Creepy Crawly Bug Adventure Show for your children a couple of weeks back. I do hope they thought it was awesome and I know they learned a great deal. I also hope you have a new found appreciation (I didn't say love) for nature's most abundant and fascinating creatures...bugs! I too have a blog that deals more with parents and children than with bugs www.SpiderMilk.com. It's not as creepy as www.CoolBugSTuff.com but I would love to know what you think.
Have a Creepy Crawly Day!
Seth, Bugmaster
