A quick thought....

Just a quick thought before I go to bed...

I love Michigan so far. The people, the places, its really a great place to live. Ann Arbor is a cool town and I think it's a great place for me right now. What I do NOT love however, are the bugs. More specifically I detest the spiders here. They are large and they are literally everywhere. NYC had no bugs, I swear, and that is what I miss most about living on the 26th and 12th floors of a building. In Walnut Creek we had a few spiders that particularly enjoyed living in my bathroom, but they were incredibly tiny and never moved, so as long as they were still there I knew they weren't creeping in my room. The spiders here are not so considerate and I tend to find them in random places. Near the door frame and window frames seem to be their favorite places in the apartment (I saw a huge one descend from the balcony above mine and land right on my railing today eww), and outside the apartment they absolutely love to sit right above my parking space and on my freaking side view mirror. It is so distracting to see a huge spider that is double because it is reflected while trying to drive. They also covered the windows at the lake yesterday, and the webs are all over the bridge I cross to get to school. Thank god the really big one hide during the day so I don't have to see them 100% of the time. Anyways, not that exciting, but nonetheless I cannot wait until it's too cold for spiders and they all go away! (The benefit of freezing temps and snow I think.)
