http://mickeygomez.com/your-friendly-neighborhood-assassin
Juvenile assassin bug, Protector of Kale. Your Friendly Neighborhood Assassin Bug. June 12, 2015. Hey, come look at this. I’m getting ready to jump in the shower. Can’t it wait? No, you need to see this now. There’s a tiny baby assassin bug in the bathroom. You called me downstairs to see an assassin bug. What on earth made you think I ‘need’ to see ANY kind of bug inside our house? Assassin bugs are a sign of a healthy garden. The garden is OUTSIDE. But it’s a baby! Also, it’s NOVEMBER. Yes, look here.

Village Green/Town²: Mold Revisited
http://villagegreentownsquared.blogspot.com/2015/08/mold-revisited.html
Where Columbia and Howard County Intersect. Thursday, August 6, 2015. Yesterday the Baltimore Sun/HoCo Times released an editorial. Addressing the school system's handling of the mold issue at Glenwood Middle School. Read it. Entitled, "Howard school district wrong to keep mold investigation under wraps", it concludes:. The picture that emerges is of a school district that wished to keep the. The school district is on the case. Two cheers. But a vestige of distrust now. The school system has been spendin...

Village Green/Town²: Hangover
http://villagegreentownsquared.blogspot.com/2015/08/hangover.html
Where Columbia and Howard County Intersect. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. About twice a year we indulge in the evil goodness which is KFC. When I woke up this morning I remembered why- MSG. I have an incredible MSG hangover this morning. I won't go into detail, but I will tell you that my mouth feels like a hook and loop fastener. One of the things I talked about last night was generational differences. How do we reach out to young buyers looking to buy a first home? I'd say it's because the meetings are b...

Village Green/Town²: Perspective
http://villagegreentownsquared.blogspot.com/2015/08/perspective.html
Where Columbia and Howard County Intersect. Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Got out of the Bubble briefly yesterday. Yep, still such a rarity that I feel inclined to report it. My daughter is enrolled in a theatre camp at Round House in Bethesda this week. I went with my husband to pick her up at the end of the day. Old suburban neighborhoods. Houses with a variety of architectural detail. Old sidewalks. Small groups of shops. Things closer together with less empty space. But things are ali...By the time we go...

One of the Lucky Ones. June 10, 2011. It had been a long week. I returned to my on-campus apartment after work and stretched out on the bed for a nap. I woke up at sunset to long bars of golden light streaming through the blinds, and to the feeling that I wasn’t alone…. Gran’s 100th Birthday. It’s Not Easy Being Green.

Village Green/Town²: Contracts and Facts
http://villagegreentownsquared.blogspot.com/2015/08/contracts-and-facts.html
Where Columbia and Howard County Intersect. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. When I was talking about CB 17, Nutritional Standards, and vending machines, this question came up in the comments section:. I had never heard that asserted before. Is there anyone out there who knows whether it's true? Because if it's the case that this bill really won't impact anything for four years, this truly becomes a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing. The County would have at least two additional opportunities to implemen...

Village Green/Town²: Turning the Tables
http://villagegreentownsquared.blogspot.com/2015/08/turning-tables.html
Where Columbia and Howard County Intersect. Saturday, August 8, 2015. Another episode in the continue saga of my crazy little house. Air conditioning. We have it. When it's on it blows loud enough that you have to turn up the television. You can't always hear people talking if they are across the room. It cools downstairs extremely well, upstairs- not so much. This seems ridiculous, given that our house it so darn small, but, that's the way it is. This is ridiculous. I wrapped up in a blanket. So today's...
