So many comments!

I was going to respond to everyone's comments by commenting myself, but that was getting long and confusing, so I figured I might as well make it a post. First of all, it was nice to see you too, Garrett. To get to Lauren's blog, try copying and pasting this: www.sincewhendodesingerscare.blogspot.com Yes, it is very long and yes, it does say "desingers" and not "designers" she explains on her blog. Good luck. To those of you eager to capture bugs for me, I still need a walking stick (sigh), thrips, silverfish and stoneflies. If you have any of those or know where to get ahold of one, please let me know. I also am more than happy to accept anything else you might find. I need all the help I can get. I have to have 90 different families from 18 different orders. If by some chance you actually do collect something for me, just stick it in a jar and then put the jar in the freezer. I'm starting to get panicky about my collection since everything is going to die starting around tomorrow or so (ahhh!!). I also am starting to worry about my midterm and lab practical for that class. I need to memorize a lot of strange bug names and know how to identify them by obscure body parts that you need a microscope to find. Yeah. It's tough. For instance, I really need a Phasmatodean and am lamenting it's loss last weekend. Bonus points to any of you who figure out what that is :) Donal, I would take box elder beetles and japanese beetles if it weren't for the fact that I have tons of each pinned up in a box at the moment. Thanks for the offer though, really good of you to give me your pests ;) Well, i'm kinda rambling, feel free to pray that i end up with a good grade on the literature paper I turned in on Monday. I kind of doubt it from what my professor was saying today about them...
