Random thought today: Let's not count our sheep before they hatch.
I keep seeing little red mites running across my laptop. I threw a few outside but it is futile. Last year there were tons of them in this room for a number of days... I don't recall how long. Later on there were tons of tiny spiders. That is the main reason I caulked along the edges of the floor last year - hoping that would keep it from happening again. But they must still be coming from somewhere else.
I actually happened to get a USB microscope photo of a mite last week as it was scurrying under the lens. But I didn't realize that the microscope application re-used the same file names each time it was restarted, so the photo got overwritten. Phooey.
Anyway, I haven't seen any mites in the last couple hours. Maybe they went to sleep.
