I am almost afraid for you to to go Cozumel because what if you hate it? What if all you see is tourists and tourist-shit and the magic of it doesn't make itself apparent to you? That would be awful! And you would hate me forever. <br />So maybe you shouldn't go. <br />(But maybe you should.)<br /><br />lulumarie- You need to find some more clitoria and plant it in your yard! It's such a delightful little flower, isn't it?<br /><br />Steve Reed- I am no bug expert, obviously, having confused a larva with a caterpillar. Whatever it is going to grow up to become, it's going to be huge. Do not ever read a Nora Roberts book. She is no better of a writer than Danielle Steele is and how either one of them ever got published is a hateful mystery. <br /><br />Angella- Nope. I don't think that's too woo-woo at all. I am completely smart enough to know that some things just cannot be explained with the "facts" as I know them. All I know is that it has never failed that as we fly into sight of the Yucatan peninsula my body begins to shake and huge sobs begin to come forth. It's embarrassing but it's something very primal and real. And every time I talk about it-now for instance- my eyes well up with tears. And my feet seem to know the paths of that island as if I'd lived there my entire life. And those- those are facts I simply know.

How else to explain the pull of certain locales and certain souls that we have no other explanation for. If this is true, and who the heck knows what's true, then for sure you had a divine life in Mexico before and it is in your cell memory. Or something. Okay, I know this is all woo woo to you, and maybe I am a little woo woo too, but Cozumel is your place. I think you should go, soon, even for a long weekend. Soon. Hugs, sweet friend. 37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-43758113596691555342013-08-16T02:00:19.951-04:002013-08-16T02:00:19.951-04:00I see others have beaten me to it!

This page suggests it is from the Ox Beetle, but I looked up June Bug larvae and they seem to look pretty much the same, so it's anyone's guess.<br /><br />http://www.lemonbayconservancy.org/dunson_floridacreatures.htm<br /><br />I've never read a Nora Roberts book. I don't think she would be my thing. I read a couple of Danielle Steele books YEARS ago when I was in the Peace Corps and I had nothing else handy to read. They were TERRIBLE.

Dang, it was a big larva though. <br />And I have felt very well today.<br /><br />Yobobe- You may get rain down there. Wait and see. I hope so.
