One Thought
There is something that displeases me about California, and that is the lack of fireflies.

I don't think I've ever actually seen a firefly. Unless the ones at the beginning of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland ride count, and I really don't think they do.
They're gross when you squash them (on ACCIDENT people, please don't freak you animal/insect/plants- have-feelings and I only drink socially responsible bottled water left wingers). Irridescent goo.
Isn't there a verse in the Bible about being the fireflies of the world and that the light of a firefly cannot be hidden unless it's in Los Angeles/some sort of sun-scorched land or something? I'm pretty sure there's something in there like that. I learned it in Sunday school. I cross my heart and promise, but no, I won't swear to it.
i love fireflies. i remember, aunt b, running around with michael on the front lawn and catching them. or trying to! was it already almost a year ago?! goodness.
late july would be lovely to see you...we shall see.
