summer is here

It is definitely summer now because the cicadas are singing. I actually love the sound. They kind of remind me of crickets in the country - except the sound is more like a buzzing than a chirp. I suppose if they were outside my window, I might feel differently, but I always enjoy them when they start to sing. I don't like seeing them - they are these horrid, huge, ugly things - but they are nice to listen to.
