Attack of the killer ants
June 7, 2010emily No Comments »As if I needed more proof that humans aren’t actually supposed to inhabit this part of Florida: I was attacked yesterday at the dog park. Attacked by vicious, flesh-eating, soul-maiming, confidence-sucking ants. Ants. I’ve written before about how I got bitten by an ant. Ant, singular. But this was different. Swarming and crazed, they bit every part of my feet they could find. And then, just as I started looking like a crazy person, complete with flailing arms and enough cursing to make a sailor blush, they took on both John and the dog, biting everything in sight. Then, perhaps egged on by the ants’ success, the flies started biting. If we’d then been hit by frogs falling from the sky, I wouldn’t have been surprised. The end of days: let me show you it.
