A few blog posts ago, like here, I mentioned that I'd made friends with a grasshopper in my yard. Now I know that sounds crazy, but I swear - we manage to find each other almost every day, and make some sort of connection. I'll wave at him, and he'll wave back. I kid you not.
A few days have passed since I saw him - it's been cold, and I did a little research on grasshoppers and they really don't live that long. So I sort of figured maybe he was gone. Like expired. Who knows, it's not like we text each other.
Imagine my surprise today - I was trimming some a cactus in the back yard and out of the blue, he jumps over to where I'm working, and hopped up on my gloved hand.
Pretty cool.
