Marmaduke Bannerworth

19th April, 2007. 8:57 pm. A cricket for Duke

I was just loading my laundry into the washing machine when I found a very healthy, full grown cricket.

How did he get into my brand new 3rd floor apartment? Perhaps he came in through the patio door when I had it open somehow? Perhaps he hitchhiked with some of my stuff when I was moving in somehow? Really, I can't think of a good way.

I'm taking it as a sign of good luck though. I'm keeping him out on my patio in a discarded pringles tube - I hope it's not too salty in there for him.

On Saturday I'm planning to take a trip out to the desert, in hopes of capturing one or more scorpions to make into pets. Perhaps the cricket was presented with me to feed a hungry scorpion on Saturday?

We'll see.

Current mood: tired.
