what is the deal with fall flies?! they seem to be everywhere in here. i am packing and working quietly and i hear buzzzz bump bump and i look and there is a big fly bumping against the window glass seeking a way out. i get a flyswatter (one of many many many swatters that were here when i got here years back) and return to the window. smack smack. down with the flies ... i eliminate a dozen!
into another room i go (the doors are closed to most of the rooms because the place is so cold) and i see or hear another fly. taken to carrying a flyswatter with me as i go from room to room. smack smack smack ... another 6 or 7 bite the dust. i notice there is blood from the flies, like when you kill mosquitoes. oooh, bad biting flies!! are these black flies? horse flies? what are they? it is soo cold out here now.
and it's quiet.
too quiet ... wait, did you hear something?
