Stoofoo, Crickets*


I hear crickets.  They started exactly on August 1st and they haven't shut up since.  It's a lovely sound except that it lullllllllllllllllllllllllllllls.  It's like they are trying to put me to sleep for the winter already.  I say, "Crickets, shut the fuck up and get a calendar."  It's like this:  Summer officially lasts until September 23rd, so for any of you, crickets included, that are prematurely bemoaning the end up summer, please do shut the fuck up.  It aint over till it's over.  The leaves on the trees are GREEN.  My flowers are still blooming.  There is no "back to school" shit around here.  The windows are still open.  THE SUN IS SHINING, OKAY??!!!  We are not about pumpkins and colored leaves and shit yet.  Get it?  Good.  Thank you and enjoy your summer.

*Stoofoo is STFU spelled phonetically.

PS:  Those are my hummingbird feeders in the picture.  I am not washing them and putting them away for the year because the hummingbirds KNOW it's still summer and they're still here.  I was just washing and refilling them.  S'there.
