RIP Quilting Bee

Apr 20, 2005 02:02

My newly acquired female scorpion, Quilting Bee, passed away tonight. I'm upset, because I feel like she was cheated. She didn't even have a chance to have an adventure. She just wandered around for less than two weeks and then died. I'm not even sure if she ate anything at all. I don't know why, but I get really attached to the little guys. I'm too sensitive. I know they're just bugs but, damn it, I'm a boy and I like bugs. I like the personality they show, and I'm fascinated by their mannerisms and survival traits and their reactions. Hopefully the male, Monster Truck Rally, will live a while longer. He appears very alert and reactive, and I hope he can have at least one adventure that he'll tell all the crickets about right before he chops them in half.

RIP Quilting Bee

Mourn you
'til I
