Attack of the Giant Flying Termites

Ok so here is the story...... Last night Steven and Will left to drive Joe ( Will's roomate) to the airport. I decided to stay at the house and watch some tv. Well its pouring rain outside and I am watching Supernatural which was kinda spooky. I had the inside den lights on as well as the tv. So here I am watching tv and I start to hear this buzzing noise, of course I think its the tv. So I ignore it for about ten minutes and then i realize its much louder. So I mute the tv and the buzzing is still there. I look up and there are about 40 HUGE FLYING TERMITES. I mean they are about the size of a normal persons hand and they are flying above my head. So I start looking around trying to find out where they are coming in the house. I find this window that has the smallest crank and these things are fighting their way in because they are atracted to the light. I tried to get to close but i couldn't so I start running around turning off lights and evacuate to our room where I shut the door with no intention of opening it until the boys have come home to fix the bug problem. Well, come to find out, this is a normal thing around here when it rains, though no one thought to tell me about it. So when Will's other roomate Adrian gets home and I come running out of the room saying "Don't turn on the lights the bugs are invading," he thinks I am a nut. Anyway all is well that ends well and now I know to turn off the lights when it rains at night.
