Comments for CarmEmily http://carmemily.com Carmen and Emily started this blog to commemorate their long standing friendship. In February 2010 Emily joined the Navy and hasn't had reliable internet since. While Carmen wistfully awaits contact she has decided to only post pictures of the sky until Emily's return.

It took me a while to figure out what they were. They look alot like mosquito hawks, and only come out at night. One stung me while driving in my car one night. It felt like an ant bite, not too bad. But it scared the $h*t out of me because it was at night and i didnt know what it was. Theyre originally from Costa Rica from what ive read, but I guess theyve made their way to east texas. Theres quite alot of them on my porch each night. i can see around 20 a night. Ive been seeing these wasps at my house for the last 3 years now. It took me a while to figure out what they were.

]]> Comment on Crap I don’t remember what comes after Oklahoma… by Carmen http://carmemily.com/2011/10/07/crap-i-dont-remember-what-comes-after-oklahoma/comment-page-1/#comment-1535 Carmen Fri, 07 Oct 2011 18:58:39 +0000 http://carmemily.com/2011/10/07/crap-i-dont-remember-what-comes-after-oklahoma/#comment-1535 I'm way behind on the witty replies to your pretty posts. I'm currently trying to learn how to be a good Project Manager. Its hard! My brain is learning new things, new concepts. During all that time I worked at my dead end job my brain was like 'hheeerrrrpppderp' and it never felt good because it was half dead all the time. Now its like my days are wonderful and perfect but I need to get my brain in good working order. Its in progress. And now that I'm in charge of my schedule I have to learn better self discipline. I was thinking of writing up a specific day schedule like: 7am - Wake, 9am - work... etc. But what are the consequences if I don't stick to it? What are the rewards if I do stick to it - you know? I was thinking a reward could be chocolate but that could turn out bad. I don't know what do you think? So are you going to do a post on why you are driving across the country? I think our readers want to know! Oh whats that? we have no readers? well, for posterity then. I’m way behind on the witty replies to your pretty posts.

Following pig tracks out to where you eat sounds a bit creepy, its like following the pig out to the slaughter house so you can have bacon for breakfast. looks exactly how I pictured Arizona to look!

]]> Comment on The zoo at night! by Carmen http://carmemily.com/2011/09/25/the-zoo-at-night/comment-page-1/#comment-1312 Carmen Mon, 26 Sep 2011 22:20:31 +0000 http://carmemily.com/?p=2620#comment-1312 I was just thinking about sloths - truly! Maybe we are telepathically linked and when you were at the zoo I could see sloths in my head! I bet that happened. Anyways, what I was thinking is - how the hell have they survived all this time? They have a couple defense mechanisms - they are slightly camouflaged.... uh I think thats their only defense. Sure they have these super awesome claws but if they went to gouge your eyes out you could just move out of the way, they're that slow. Another defense could be that they look scary and cute at the same time, thus confusing you too much to want to eat them. Also, I think its possible that they taste really bad and other animals have just learned that over time. Its probably a fact that if it wasn't for the sloth sanctuaries around the world that they would be extinct by now. Humans are their ultimate defense mechanism.

The one in the picture looks like it has something going on besides just meat, like maybe there are some vegetables hiding out under there....also, it is a funny shade of magenta.

It instantly sapped all the liquid from my mouth and all it left behind was the inability to swallow and a horrifically bitter flavor. Definitely a story to remember and one I still tell to this day! ;) As I recall, you shoved it in mouth while I had a line full of customers and it was one of the worst experiences of my life!

Although I can't say I've had any experiences with bitter lemon. I did accidentally smell a durian once and I had an automatic gut reaction that I thought the building was going to blow up because to me it smelled like propane gas. I was urging everyone to leave the building and call PG&E. They were like "calm down whitey round eye, its just durian".
