Grasshopper Knowledge

                       The weekend was quiet and  not very eventful .  I cooked the old people dinner and had it there at 5:20 10 minutes early . And the niece and husband had sushi from HEB . Back home to clean up the kitchen . Where I ended up by the pool listening to a drunk friend talk . And finally said “go to bed”

Sunday we bought a blood pressure taker and took it back over to them and went to the ever exciting Lowes. I have no idea what we purchased there. Had lunch with Lisa at Rosas who let me add is never picking lunch . Unless she is really hungry and that’s what she really wants. Otherwise no she doesn’t get a say .

Her birthday is next week and she has decided to have dinner at our house and hangout. So Italian it is.

Monday was a slow very slow day with nothing to write home about. However on Tuesday things picked up . The afternoon was filled with a lot of sitting. In a waiting room. It was a trip to the Oncologist with Sandra to see my good friend Raj . Pretty sure that was a meeting of two who where very happy to see each other. We were both smiling . It’s been awhile . He told Sandra oh I see you brought me a beautiful gift today . So very kind of him to say. He showed me pictures of Chickee . All grown up . 6’1 taller than him . We always knew she would be tall . She was all legs. Two months ago she graduated medical school and is now a Dr. a intern in California learning emergency medicine.  He did a good job as a single dad and a busy doctor.  Sandra got all her info and her prognosis which isn’t great. But it’s life . The moment you find out how your going out of this world . Has to be an odd feeling.

And here we come to a very slow dragging day . It’s not even noon. Jesus !

Family reunion is this weekend. And it’s unclear if either one of us is going . If it’s a day trip sure. I can’t do overnight that ship sailed years ago . I got spoiled on the thought we live so close. Let go for the day . Then the cabin count got smaller and not a lot of room . And became a daytrip event. Which worked out. Go sweat for the day sleep in my own bed. No taking turns on the shower. The sister in law and her family has always taken president over us anyway . Always makes sure she has a room with the parnets and her kids too. Nobody really cares what happens to us. And that’s okay . Cause I get a day trip.

Lets talk about grasshoppers ! Do you like them ? Do you wish to set them on fire and watch them burn? Clearly the 2021 freeze did something to them and enlarged them to be bigger and jump higher. And also it’s apparent that they snuggled way to much in the freeze .

Did you know  grasshoppers don’t bite humans but if they happen to bite a human it’s not dangerous

Did you know  females dies after laying eggs

Did you know laying eggs takes 3-4 days and then  she dies

Did you know Grasshoppers are Whores ! Did you know it takes  45 mins to mate with a female grasshopper  and hops on to the next guy collecting sperm all day

It appears all grasshoppers born this year are girls . They are big and gross . And this concludes your useless grasshopper knowledge .

Until next time
