The Why’s in A Moody Head

I’m on the swings again. I am wondering why I am having the steep fluctuations in my mood today. No it is not hormonal!! I’m going to figure out this mystery by the end of the day. At least I hope I do!! I’m meeting friends for dinner and I definitely don’t want to be in “I’m grumpy and want to be alone” mood!!

Meanwhile, I have other Why’s to try to answer.

Take for example the question that I have been pondering about for awhile now: why would someone farm ants? Seriously, why? I fully respect these small hyper active insects. But to have them as pets?!! I’m guessing someone who has an ants farm in his/her house should be considering them as pets. You cannot pat ants (oops, I’m sorry Penny I crushed you. Next!). You cannot play with ants (Good girl Mini, now go fetch that piece of floss, while I nap!). You cannot walk an ant, let it sleep with you, or have it anywhere close to your body (Hey why are you so restless? – I have ants in my pants, literally!). You can’t even wash ants (You messy little thing, here is a drop of water to clean you…Opps, bye bye Goliath!). Ok maybe they are not thinking of having ants as pets when they have a farm. Is ants’ milk drinkable? How do you milk an ant anyway? There is definitely not much meat on the poor insect, except if you are on a very strict diet. Oh maybe they are after the eggs! Ants eggs for breakfast. YUM! Do Ants in Ants farms get branded? That would be a tedious job.

All that talk about food made me hungry…I’ll go to lunch and then come back to continue.
