Butterfly Kisses

It was a clear, crisp day and I was stepping out of the house on my way to work, or shopping, or going to a movie, or something…I forget. Basically, I was leaving the house to go somewhere. And since it was such a nice, slightly chilly day and the sun was shining and birds were singing, several bugs were out and about pollinating plants and crap. Now what happened next is something I never thought would ever happen. I was attacked. Yes, you read the correctly, I was attacked…by two butterflies.

I made sure the door was locked and turned to walk down the steps. And then it happened. They came at me from both sides. One attacked the right side of my face and the other flew in from the left. Distracted by the sudden assault, I threw up my hands to swat them away only to miss the top step and trip down the rest of them.

And just as sudden as the attack began, the wicked butterflies were gone.
