A Morning Crow

This morning, I was coming into work and I saw a crow eating something. As I got closer, it looked like guts of an animal or maybe a clam or mussel. It could have been trash, I don't really know. If I had a twitter account, that's what I would post about. It was disgusting.

Connected

I went to my favorite coffee shop in Portland today, Maine's own Coffee By Design. As I arrived another patron came in through the other door and was served before me. The 10-15 second delay was a little annoying. On the walk back to work, I saw a beast of a seagull land on a building 10 steps ahead of me. This masterful creature must have been full of crab and oyster, as he proceeded to take the largest bird shit I have ever seen. It was like a parking space line. All of a sudden, I wasn't so annoyed about being second in line for coffee.

Thing's I Have Been Told

"You play in a band? I used to play in the band, I played the drums and spun records. But there comes a point when you have to ask yourself, do you really think you can make it? I mean let's be serious for a second, do you actually believe you have what it takes to make it in the music business?"

From a former (micro)manager at a natural foods store. I gave my notice the next time I saw him.

What's Happening?

The other day I found an empty beer can she left in the shower. It reminds me of something I would do. It's still in there. Then I said I was excited for Football season. She said anything shy of a Superbowl in New England this year is a waste of time, and just messing around. I agree.

Mornings

I'm strange. Sometimes I'm a morning person. Sometimes I'm not. Today, I am not. This morning I heard Eddie scratching in the shower. This usually means He's about to poo. I jumped out of bed and into the bathroom. I stuck my hand in and turned on the water. There was a commotion, and Eddie jumped out. She discovered his gift. You win this round my feline friend. Sassy frassy.
