The summertime in Washington is unfriendly for many temperature-related reasons, but the reason I find least comfortable is Mosquitos. For some reason, I am just incredibly tasty to the bugs, as is my fiancée, and it’s a real tough place to be. I get bitten when I go outside even just to water the garden, which is even more aggravating. Then BoingBoing steps in and show me this wondrous monstrosity. Give it legs and a good battery, and you would have the ideal robot. All for just $200!
Say, we’re getting married next month…perhaps we ought to register for it?
Also, my tomatoes have another bug problem: aphids. Can anyone tell me where I can get ladybugs in this town? I’ve asked a few places, but no one seems to have any…help?

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
