Hidemi's Rambling Nov 1, 2009

Sweet November! To me, summer ends with beginning of November. The reason I hate summer is because I have a strong phobia about bugs. When I see one, I almost have a heart attack. It's my version of 'Alien' in which I battle frantically with a spray, while crying, screaming with fear. For the defense, I put two electrical bug repellers and many herbal bug repellers in my tiny room. Usually, I turn off the electrical repellers, which make clicking noise, when November starts, and get back quiet nights. But for some reason, we had a hot October in Japan this year and I still use the air conditioner. In this situation, I have no courage to turn the repellers off. Summer still prevails for me...
