Asian Invasion.

These disgusting things are infesting my house. They are crawling all over screens and outside walls. They aren't ladybugs, though they resemble their helpful cousins. No, these things are Asian beetles. From our friends to the East, they have no known enemies other than me, therefore take over the inside of houses across North America in the early fall to find refuge from the cold winter.

Oh, and they bite.

Snow on the windshield!

As I was on my way to the dentist's office this morning (2 fillings, YUCK! apparently, I have deep, deep crevices in my teef = cavity breeding ground), I drove past cars with snow on their windshields! Imagine that! SNOW! ...ick. I do want to buy a new winter coat. This one to be exact. I guess that's something fun about the leaves falling and the snow not far behind.

In honor of the end of summer. I post a picture of the pretty flowers I had on my balcony.

le premier jour d'automne

It's fall. Gee, when was summer? The weather this summer was awful and the Farmer's Almanac says that October is going to be:

1st-3rd. Rain and squalls. 4th-7th. Fair and quite chilly, then very unsettled. 8th-11th. Cold turkey? Unseasonably chilly. 12th-15th. Rain. 16th-19th. Fair and quite chilly weather. 20th-23rd. Squally weather and heavy precipitation spreads east. 24th-27th. Clearing skies, followed by colder temperatures. 28th-31st. Wet, then slow clearing.

GROSS!

Oh well, at least October is a fun month. Turkey at the beginning and costumes at the end.

Public Transit Annoyance #6

Dear Stinky Woman in Front of Me on the #2 Bus:

Why must you wear so much bloody perfume? Your vile stench is like a plague to my sinus cavities. It permiates my head and leaves me with a wicked headache for an hours. Is it that you have a terrible body odor problem? To be honest with you, I'd rather smell someone's stinky feet after bathing in a pot of fermented bile than deal with your 5 oz of cheap Walmart eau de toilet douced upon your clothes. After years of wearing that much perfume, you must not be able to smell anymore, that must be the problem! I recommend one spray, sprayed in front of you and walked into. Because you are definitely over-doing the smell, I can actually see the fumes coming off your clothes!

Sincerely,
A fellow passenger and concerned citizen.

Nerds.

I've finally done it. I registered a domain name. I've crossed into the modern age and I'm finally going to have my own real website. nataliemarsh.com is mine! My own little piece of virtual property to do as I want!

Oh, the endless possibilites....should it be about art? another blog? maybe I will have a store! And to think I have my very own graphic designer at my disposal to create a fabulous animated site full of fun and cuteness.

On another note, Nintendogs has got to be the cutest game of all time.

I have a pug. His name is Mao.
