Fall in North Dakota means you will be invaded by the Benchooga bugs (actually Box Elder Bugs), but I always told the kids they were Benchooga bugs. They accumulate on the south side of the house by the hundreds, then they find any opening and come in our house. They are everywhere. They are harmless, but drive you nuts. They get in the bed, they get on your head. They are on the TV, or where ever you want to be. They are in the kitchen while Cissie is @##$%. They in the shower at every hour. The are on the carpet. They are on the floor. They come in the house, but they don't use the door.
When Megan was in high school her history teacher hated the terrible Benchooga bugs. Megan made a one foot long Box Elder marionette and gave it to the teacher. With great joy it hung from the ceiling of the classroom for the rest of his career. This is the absolute worst year I have ever seen for the little @#$%$/. We have been going through the house vacuuming them one by one. Inside the vacuum cleaner there must be a convention.
