RE: Last Night's Letter

Dear World,

An earthquake was not what I had in mind. At all. (Other than the fact that it's really amusing. I guess that helps.)

What?

In other news... walking around aimlessly makes me feel better. Also, I am a great big superstitious fluffball. Because a ladybug hopped onto me somewhere during my walk around downtown today, and got on the Grand bus with me. I let it crawl around and watched it, because ladybugs are good luck. And it fell off of me onto a lady's fancy tacky purse and she... she swatted it. So after she got off I caught it off the back of her seat and held onto it until I could take it to the park across from my apartment, because I kind of felt responsible for it being transported into a dangerous environment. And in the end, I deposited it on a fuzzy tree, and I hope it'll be happy, even if it is miles from its original home. (And I took pictures, er, because I'm a nerd.)

Apparently that lady didn't know that, as with crickets, killing ladybugs is bad luck. TRYING to kill one is at least some bad karma too, I'd imagine.

Also, lolearthquake. At least it wasn't the big 'un!!

Apparently everyone one around me felt the earthquake. Except me. I was kind of disappointed.

I am glad to here that the lady bug made it out of the situation alright. Dying while on a tacky handbag would be most unfortunate :(
