All you native Oregonians probably will laugh, go ahead, I don't mind a bit. Saturday night was a very taxing night at work, and when I got home Sunday morning I was mentally and emotionally drained. It was all I could do to drag myself out of the car and tackle the stairs to my apartment. But when I was half way up the steps, I noticed something on the wall, right about head high. A little pick me up gift from God. It was a Praying Mantis!!! (Cue laughter) I was really excited, I have never seen one, only pictures. So I ran inside and got my camera, and as I was taking pictures of it, it tipped its head back and look straight at me, like it was posing for the camera. The girls at work just smiled and nodded, and giggled, but I am still excited. So Here it is, I named it Bob.

Bob is very cute. I'd laugh, but if you look at the archives of my blog to September of 2006, you'll see a praying mantis. ;) I saw only two while living in Oregon. They were the first two I've ever seen in my life. Don't worry! You're just as sane as I am.
I have never seen one either! I like his name.
Thad was attacked by one last week! he's seen 3 since coming to Oregon and he felt really bad when he accidentally painted one.
