~ Beetle Juice.. Beetle Juice... Beetle Juice ~

Not sure how many of you have had issues with Japanese Beetles this summer, but locally they are all over. Driving around town you'll see the traps hanging in yards. You may have seen them and not realized what they were. My parents backyard was infested big time and they were killing the plants. The put the bags/traps up and within hours they were full. It was disgusting!!! I've noticed plant life around that looked pretty gross. At first it appeared to be lack of water, but upon inspection the leaves were eaten away.

I was walking by the neighbors yard and noticed their grape vine on the fence was brown. I walked over to look and was completely grossed out. So what better way to show you what I saw then to get a picture. LOL Ok, I tried to pretty it up a bit......... But you will notice the bunch of them on a leaf, or what is left of it. Isn't that nasty? I know it's part of nature and things come in waves. A few years back it was lady bugs. I just think it's sad that so much plant life is being killed. There are bags up, but apparently it can't keep up with the number of beetles.

I got a couple mails over the past few days. Guilty by association they tell me. Apparently they are blocked from leaving comments in a journal because they come here and request my tags or leave comments. Our journals, our prerogative as to who we allow to comment. Completely understood. This, though, does not surprise me one bit. The whole fiasco of my troll began because I would not remove a comment from someone I barely knew but was disliked. So sad that someone wants to dictate who you befriend or visit in JLand. Like I said then, I don't want to play 4th grade games 'if you like me you won't be their friend' Whatever! We can make our own choices, and if someone choose to block so be it. If someone wants to allow, so be it. It's the freaking Internet. Funny thing though, apparently there have been comments left by an unknown name. Really? Imagine that since so many are blocked.... 'You can't even leave your own srcreen name but hide behind another because you have neither backbone nor morals. You're as phony as a three dollar bill and everyone knows it.' Now that is a concept. Block them and then say they have no back bone, no morals, and are fake. Or would that be me being accused? Wouldn't be the first time. Holy Shit!!! Get over yourself, I have no interest. Like a zit on the ass of a donkey, though painful at times, frustrating, and annoying. I don't care that you are here or what you are doing. Well, not exactly I wish I could chant some saying three times and have you go away and leave me out of your pitiful life. Trust me, I tried to deal with this one on one, but email and comments have been blocked for almost a year. Are they still? I have no freaking clue..... see above. I have no interest. So take your whiny paranoid self off the pedestal. I have no interest in your life, your journal, or you. You have issues and trolls? Look in the mirror because it sure the hell isn't me or anyone doing it for me. Maybe those nice emails you send out? Or because you block folks for childish reasons with no explanation? Here's your sign!

Ok sorry about that, I'm back .............. Hope everyone is doing well on this Thursday. I am, and I am looking forward to the weekend. :::giggle::: Can't say anything yet but I will soon.

Hugs

beetle Juice, beetle juice, beetle juice :::sigh::: oh how I wish that worked.

Grrrrrrrrrr. I just don't get why, although I know it happens with some folks, that people just can't leave others alone and enjoy their own life.

Both subjects are disgusting. Considering some of the things I write about, who am I to comment?
On the other hand, whoever that is that's bothering you like this has a very sad life. My dear God. Whoever you are. Find a hobby! Basketweaving or something productive!
