I think they have it out, but that was freaky. I had fallen asleep, and I woke up with the apartment filled with smoke (the window is open). I ran and grabbed the carrier to put Bastet in and went to grab the pets when I saw the flames outside.
There are currently 4 fire trucks in front of my building and at least 20 firemen. Thank God they responded so quickly. That dumpster has trees surrounding it...and those trees touch the buildings. And the buildings are REALLY close. This whole street could have gone up in flames.
Yikes, vw. I'm glad it seems under control. How scary!
What's more exciting?
vw's neighborhood nearly on fire?
or
erika's neighborhood in a copkilling spree?
or
three footed dingo coyote in Cindy's yard?
I don't know Hec. I think they're all pretty damn exciting. So much so that I wish my name wasn't attached to one of them!

I can change it to: Emily's neighborhood nearly on fire?
Feel better?
You know what I think. Y'all are being way too passive about the amount of chaos in your neighborhoods. You can't just sit back and let the chaos happen to you. You need to go out and set some other neighborhoods on fire. Unleash the crack-addled coyotes!
This seems to beg a

Our Mrs. Reynolds.
Unfortunately, my brain is shot right now, and I cannot remember it.

For some reason, that makes it worse. Thanks for trying, though.

I had a COW loose in my neighborhood once. No, seriously. Trudy can vouch for that.
It wasn't crack-addled, or on fire, though. Or the Man-Eating Cow from the Tick. So really, kind of boring.
When we lived across the street from the zoo, we once had turkey vultures in the front yard. More exciting than cows, but not any more dangerous.
They're cleaning up right now. It's still loud. I called my mom, and she's like, "WHAT is going on there?"
