They don't want to. And afaic, the BPD fomented the violence we saw here last year.

At 6:30 this morning, a dove marched up to me to let me know the birdfeeder was empty.

No, I wasn't dreaming. I call doves dumb, but clearly they have some cunning to 'em.

The squirrels in the local parks are used to having tourists feed them. They can get quite aggressive. One park has some white squirrels which are even more so - I was once in that park with a large cup of smoothie and one came up and perched at my toes with an expectant look.

My mom has booked a flight to come visit. And now I'm getting stressed out because she thought she needed to cancel and rebook when I said that I may need to work from home a little bit since she's arriving in the morning rather than the evening. You must chill, Mom!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just used the expression "the uterus on that woman" and the men in my office about choked to death. I am about at my fill of male dominated bullshit in general. Also? A hair's breadth from losing it for no reason, so maybe I should shut my door.

Squirrels are evil. I don't just them.

Pro Tip: If you set a trap to fling squirrels, don't use a trebuchet, they are too slow, think torsion.

Squirrels may be evil. But people are smarter. At least, SOME people.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Just finished the campus tour. Husband is talking with HR, and they said he's the only finalist.

Nice. Salary ~ma!

At my old office, we had big orange stickers to put on large trash items, and they read "TRASH / BASURA".

At mine too.

Love it. You got ovaries, girl.

We need a good slang word for ovaries. Like balls. There isn't one. Is there? Have The Kids come up with a word?

There's a sassy-ass squirrel living here now. I haven't seen him on the birdfeeder but he scrounges the seed that falls to the ground. The two feral cats leave him alone, probably because the food I put out for them doesn't run away. I suspect Mr. Sassy is partaking of the cat food as well.

I'm so fucking tired. I need actual sleep.

I wonder if that squirrel was going "Wheeeeeeee!" the whole time and enjoying the ride.

Just friended someone on FB who I met this weekend. Deciding if that's enough (she accepted the request) or if I also want to say "you seem so freaking cool will you be my friend?!?" :)
