Last night one of my roommates and I were bowling on my other roommate’s Wii. We were listening to music on my laptop at the same time and for some strange reason my screen saver came on. It never comes on since I have my laptop in Power Saver mode and it usually just goes to sleep if I don’t move the mouse for a while.
But, for whatever reason, it went to the screen saver. My screen saver is set to flip through all the pictures I’ve got in my iPhoto. I had completely forgotten about this one picture I took a few years ago until it showed up on the screen last night.
That was the freakiest bug I’ve ever seen. The thing was huge. It’s some sort of cicada. And no, I wasn’t in the South when I saw it. That thing was found in the good old Northeast. Had to get a picture of it, though. So my dad set his keys down next to it to show how humongous it was.

Our cicadas in DC were that big. All of them.
You guys should see the cicadas in Korea. *shudders*
Just looking at that picture makes me shudder. Bugs are icky.
I WAS EATING!!
I don’t think I want to see any bugs that are bigger than this one.
ah yes, i remember that one. i believe we got a pic of another that big, with the shoe next to it?
