Mid-Western Minnesota adventure

Yesterday i want on a class trip around to DNR land and Historic sites. We went to a burnt down mansion from the 1800s. I caught 4 young Fox Snakes (Elaphe gloydi)and 2 Five-lined skinks (Eumeces fasciatus).

Bot Fly Larvae

Bot Fly Larvae are a parasitic type of fly larvae. It all starts with a fly laying eggs in the mosquito. then the eggs atch underneath the mosquito's's wings and drop onto the host's skin. then the larvae start to grow burying into the ski and growing at an unreal rate. then when metamorphasized, the crawl out as a new bot fly.

I enjoy long, squirley walks on the beach, getting humped in the rain and serendipitous encounters with cats. I really like piƱa coladas mixed with acid, and romantic, candle-lit people. I am well-read from Dr. Seuss to chuck norris. I travel frequently, especially to the moon, when I am not busy with work. (I am a kitten killer.) I am looking for sasquatch and beauty in the form of a pastafarian goddess. She should have the physique of jessica simpson and the squirle of lint. I would prefer if she knew how to cook, clean, and wash my toasts. I know I’m not very attractive in my picture, but it was taken 666 days ago, and I have since become more tubby.
