First dragonfly!
Category: dribblings
Yesterday was Sunday and I played bass on two worship teams, one in the morning and one in the evening. There was a Yankees game in the middle I wanted to watch. The Yankees started losing, there was a homerun -fest, and by the 7th inning I knew they weren’t going to come back. So I took Roxy to the park. We were walking in this woody part near the pond, but not that close to the pond. I saw a bug zoom by.
Was that a dragonfly? Nah. Maybe a wasp or something.
But then again, I hung out with dragonflies a lot last summer. I know what a dragonfly looks like. That had to be one.
So I took Roxy to the pond and there was a dragonfly patrolling twenty or so feet of the pond bank. I think it was a female blue dasher.
When I got home I checked the creek by our house. There are two at my creek (so far) each patrolling a section.

Lovely dragonfly, BTW! It’s cool that you have a reation time and shutter speed that allow you to get these great shots!
…really, birds? dragonflies? baseball ?this is bull****, what has happen to you? you use to be a wolf, now you’re a labrador retriever. you’ve been domesticated. what happen to jerky, the sign shop, CZ, givin it to the man, that whale crap, margaret. if it doesn’t get better i’m coming over there and taking my shirt off and i’m gonna do unspeakable things to jimmy. get it in gear word monkey.
Jeanne. Thanks! the pickle e-mail is gone. somewhere. i can’t figure out how to change the link to my gmail, which i use. it’s fleegan@gmail.com
Dante! dang. have i mellowed? fuck.
also, I miss CZ too.
PJ. i predict the Yankees will start out with a 5 run lead, and then blow the shit out of it in the 8th. Cubs win! Cubs win!
You know I was just messin with you. Every now and then my SOB alter ego (that you created) Dante has to have a couple of drinks and rear his ugly head just for kicks and giggles. You have always been one of the few that gets it. I do miss the old Weekly sometimes. It was such an exceptional piece of tripe. By the way, I think Dante has tickets to his hero Charlie Sheen’s tour. You should try to go with him. It’ll be the most fun since the Joaquin Phoenix rap concert, or that time he got to hear Andy Kaufman read The Great Gatsby. Good times!
You are NOT going to see Charlie Sheen. That makes NO kind of sense! You can go see crazy people for free! Crazy Margaret would love to talk to you. And also borrow five dollars.
Or? Just go the library!
Dammit. I forgot the ‘to’. I hate that. The only thing worse than grammatical errors is subsequent posts correcting them.
DAMMIT!
I HATE THAT!
(hee – just kidding with this one)
HAHAHAHahaha!
