| So, I'm sitting in front of Old Aspen, and I look out the window at my car, and what do I see... a group of small birds, sparrows I think, have converged on my car. They're all around it, and nowhere else. And it's not a desire for heat because I've been here for about two hours already. Then this little one decides to peck my back tire to death and just starts tapping it and pulling at one of the tread things on it. Definitely a Hitchcock moment.

| You know the Lewis Black IHop skit? The one with the line: "If it wasn't for that horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college"? You know his reaction to it: the discovery of what causes an aneurism? Well, I'm sitting at the coffee shop, and I feel that I've just had one of those moments. The statement went: "You're not allowed to make your bed until after Christmas! What's the worst that can happen?"
And in the immortal words of Mr. Black, "The left-hand side of the brain looks at the right-hand side of the brain and goes 'It's dark in here, and we may die!'" | | |
| I just wanted to put my two cents in and say how so very happy and proud I am about the choice we made yesterday!
P.S. Happy Guy Fawks Day! | | |
| I suppose that can apply to many different things. Here, I use it in reference to the changing of the seasons. Halloween is upon us, next comes Thanksgiving, and then Christmas. It's almost like the New Year isn't really the marker for the end of the year, but the end starts happening right around now.
Today is a beautiful, somewhat warm, sunny day, and probably one of the last ones this year that are "supposed" to happen. I say "supposed" because Oklahoma has been know to have 80 degree December days. But none-the-less, winter is coming, and another year is beginning to end.
This will be my first final-less December, and maybe that's another thing that's ending. | | |
