Order Orthoptera. (katydids, true crickets, grasshoppers, locusts are among this order) Characterized by a life cycle of incomplete metamorphosis.

From Greek Ortho = straight
ptera = wing

Thus, straight-winged.

Yay etymology!

For all their outward similarity to spiders, daddy longlegs are considered by arachnologists to be more closely related to the Acari--the mites and ticks--then they are to the spiders, the Aranae. Unlike spiders, their abdomen and cephalothorax are broadly joined, so that they seem to have no waists.

Chapter IV: Order Opiliones - Daddy Longlegs

Those eight long legs of his are delicate and break off easily at the first joint nearest the body, either side of which is studded with sensory organs that let him know where there is stress on his legs.

We also saw four question marks, Polygonia interrogationis, which are angelwings, as the genus name suggests. Nearly all Polygonia species are northern forest butterflies with ragged outlines and mottled brown color; they are good dead-leaf mimics.

So tired of FIRM. Probably not FIRM itself, but just the fact that my paper keeps being torn apart. ;___;

It seems to be more difficult to be patient with yourself than it is to be patient with other people.

I think it takes a very special type of person or (perhaps a person that doesn't give up ._.) to progress to higher mathematics and actually understand the concepts, explain them, and be able to "connect the dots." But, maybe that's just me.

"the end is always cheerful
says the day hurrying alongside as you splice
through it, as you
feel your astonishing aloneness grow funnily
winged--who are you going to be
someday, who are you going to be when all this clay flowing through you has
finally become
form"
