It's so annoying that this is so true.
Wild strawberries! Cool.
I had a whole section about civic pride.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I basically always feel better about life if I get up and out the door early, but it is VERY HARD to remember that when it is early.
The problem is that the feeling better about life doesn't kick in until AFTER you get up and do the moving-around thing, which is hard to convince yourself of from the comfortable position of staying in bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Also, now that I know it's called hurkle-durkling, lying around in bed is even more appealling!

I have been up and about and working and so forth for hours today and I would love to go back to lying around in bed as soon as possible

NO. The nocturnal/delayed sleep phase disorder side of the house says NO.
(Guess who now has a migraine from getting up way too early?)

Groundhogs are pretty good in a scrap, they just look waddly and slow. And most cats are smart enough to leave alone anything that weighs as much as them, at least as prey.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
At least one groundhog, but probably more, lives under the porch of the house across the street. One day when I was backing in to our driveway, I noticed this little face watching me park, with the most judgmental expression you can imagine. I feel like if that groundhog could have asked to see the manager about my parking job, it would have.

Don't park angry, Tep
Too obscure a reference? Feels obscure
It is time for me to go home! Hurkle-durkling in my future!
Have I mentioned that work has decided we (salaried employees) need to be in the office 9 hours a day? Half hour for lunch and a half an hour sprinkled throughout the day getting coffee or what not assumed. I am extremely irritated about it and trying not complain to everyone too much but I don't think I've actually mentioned it here.

Thrive to spite them
There is a groundhog that wanders around in our backyard occasionally. The cats seem to ignore it.
Speaking of cats Mom's cat Lovey is blind. He had to have the one eye removed because it was injured and got infected and got really gross looking. But he has glaucoma in his remaining eye and is blind. Mom had notice him having issues with his vision and finally (at my urging) took him to the vet. She has drops to help relieve the pressure but if those don't help he'll have to lose his eye. This is completely unrelated to what happened to his other eye. He is still a happy loving cat , he just can't see anything.
