I MUST find some pills or something to make sure the sleep goes all the way - there just isn't any point in having a proper Sunday if I keep waking up at odd hours of the night!
Watched Pirates on Saturday, it was unexpectedly good. My only gripes about it are 1) The lengthy scenes of his hallucinations/daydreams/whatever that was about stones turning into crabs, and 2) the evil Englishman, who was strolling along the ship all suave and composed while shards of wood from the ship flew all around - and not a splinter, not even one, cut him. Rolled my eyes at nobody in particular at that point in time.
Since I was down at JP, bought a couple of clothes from the JL sale - would have carted away more, except that my meagre salary just can't support that kind of lifestyle.
Friday looms ever nearer, and I wonder what the week after would be like. Then again, I need to survive this week first.
Oddly, the baby mantids haven't hatched yet! Lay out bananas to trap Drosophila and bought some crickets today to breed for baby crickets, just in case the mantids decide to pop out. Some pics of the ootheca!
That's the mommy mantid standing near the ootheca. She's getting fatter now, I really hope she lays a second egg case soon.

Closeup of the ootheca. The babies will hatch out, dangle upside down, and finally start crawling around, eating their own siblings first.
