This fucking guy! Eating our peppers. Apparently it's a hornworm. It's probably about 4 or 5 inches long and thicker than my finger. I call him "NOPE. JUST NOPE."  |

saw this about a week ago: a curly haired terrier running up the sidewalk followed by a man quickly parking his car and running down the sidewalk. The guy came walking back a few seconds later with the happy dog in his arms as everyone chuckled and shook their heads at that dog.

On a run today in light rain. Pass a guy smoking a cigarette under an overhang. He gestures to his cigarette and says, in a thick Eastern European accent, "Bad boy. Smoke is good!"

There's a gnarled old dead tree on my drive to work. It's been trimmed down over the years to get its branches away from the power lines, but the trunk remains; it's a tall, twisted, ghoulish sort of shape standing much taller than the scrubby stuff growing around it. Most mornings I'll see either a hawk or a turkey vulture perched on the tippy top of it, as if setting the scene for a ghost story to break out. Today? There was a mourning dove sitting there. Significantly less imposing.

Fun (?) fact - The mourning dove call is the only bird call I can successfully mimic. I talk to (at) them when I hear them in the mornings while walking the dogs.

A young woman wearing a hoodie with the words "Panic At The Disco!" emblazoned on it. I somehow know this is a band, but I refuse to listen to it.

From Welcome to Night Vale: "I hate Panic! at the Disco. I’ve never actually heard their music, so I don’t actually hate them so much as resent them. Or rather, resent what they stand for. Or rather, resent what I believe that they stand for. Or rather, resent my perception of other people’s projections of what they stand for. Or rather, myself." |

I think you just convinced me I have to start listening to that podcast. |

Across the street, on the property of the high school, by my place someone abandoned a mattress. I can't really see it from the house so I tend to forget about it until I go to open the gate. Now someone has abandoned other trash like a laundry hamper full of palm fronds and a coffee maker. Knowing this neighborhood all that junk is probably going to be lit on fire before the county gets off it's ass and hauls it to the dump. Well it finally happened. I was coming home from work and I saw it blazing, so I called 911 and by the time that call was done it was burning down. It took the fire department about ten minutes to get here, despite the fact that they're on the other side of the block. So they came, almost drove over it, got out to look at it, and kicked it off to the side. I'm kind of disturbed how quickly it burned. |

A plane fly into a cloud and not come out of any part of the cloud I could see.
A broken crayon, someone left on black asphalt, that has completely melted.

Lightning! Rain! Woooo!
I know rain isn't all that welcome in some areas of the country right now, but wow, it is so exciting to see here.

A family of lions crossing the road in front of our car!
(OK, I was at a safari theme park thing, but these were honest to god lions and they were actually up and moving around! I've never seen a non-sleeping lion before!)

A guy riding down the street on a unicycle. I don't think we have a lot of hipsters in this town, but now I know we have at least one.
