Bah.

Every year I say this, and every year I don't do anything about it...

Why does this God-forsaken country NOT HAVE FLYSCREENS on the windows? What is WRONG with your architects/designers/whoever makes these decisions? What the FUCKING FUCK? It isn't hard. Really. I know you don't have very many nasty bitey mosquitoes, I know the spiders are not poisonous, but surely it's an advantage to be able to sit inside in the evening, reading, with the window open, without having umpteen suicidal moths blunder in and fry themselves on your reading lamp? Surely it's a good thing to be able to cook without attracting every fly for 4 blocks around? We have the technology, folks.

I'm not quite at the point of nailing mesh fabric to the window frames but I'm getting pretty damned close. I think next time I have any spare cash (yeah, right!) I might be making a trip to a hardware store to at least find out what my options are.

It's the little things...
