See, my hummingbirds are bold enough to come right up to me, but I am too scared by their pointy beaks and sudden quick movements to really let them. I think I need to refill at least one feeder, though, I should get on that.
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Not even a little plutonium pellet you might be using for your matter transporter!

The local frozen custard shop (Ollies) had an experimental red velvet cake flavor. It was mostly just sweet. They're Thin Mint Cookie custard is OH so much better.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I know! But to them they're ordinary movements. I just have to calm myself, because the hummingbirds are totally chill. They just look completely frenetic to me.
Although my big fear is getting in the way of the endless and brutal hummingbird battles.

Restaurant Toilets Are for Peeing and Periods
Make an adult effort to evacuate your bowels at home or (if you must) at the office. Unless a dire digestive situation present itself, feces belong nowhere near a toilet at a restaurant, nice or otherwise. Fumes waft.
Seriously?
Although once while in the bathroom of a McDonalds a guy complained how I had smelled it up, so I dunno....
