Weekend: Imminent
No worries, no worries- although certainly traumatized yesterday, my brain is fortunate enough to be able to compartmentalize things so well that I almost entirely forgot about the incident for a few moments yesterday. Until I took a walk to get an iced coffee and was accosted by swooping birds everywhere, that is. Damn wildlife.
But thanks to everyone for your concern. I'm very pleased that I did not cause an accident, nor did I contract avian bird flu (the school nurse has assured me that in fact it would be impossible for me to get avian bird flu since humans cannot contract the disease- who knew?), nor did I have a mental breakdown forcing Chris to hospitalize me for Hitchcockian bird fears. A successful trauma all around, yes? And I even plan on bringing a Starbucks gift card to the nice man who removed the bird from under my car seat, despite it's wings being wedged in between the seat belt bolts on the floor. I think that deserves an Orange Creme Frappuccino if anything ever did.
In other, non-bird related, news, it is Friday. Woot. The weather is gorgeous, we had a cookout at lunch today and the words "tube steaks" were never even mentioned, I played Guitar Hero with my 8th graders for our last class ever, our vegetable crisper at home is full of beers from last week's bash, and there are a whole lot of pokemons still to be caught on my DS. So what am I still doing on the computer? Good question. NPW- out.

So, are you recommending the Orange Cream Frapp? Cause you're definitely NOT recommending car-bird accidents!

Wait. Vegetable crispers hold something other than beer?

I haven't had beers in the vegetable crisper since college. Now I think I know why I feel so sad and old all the time. As soon as I get home today, I'm removing the broccoli and beets and adding Milwaukee's best!

Oh man.. I want to come play your DS. That's all! (Beers are a bonus)

wow oh wow, what a story. You are very kind to go back and give him a token of your gratification. If ever anyone deserves an frithy mocha anything it would infact be that young man!
I hope you are recouping and the weekend and beers calm you back to a better place.
how I do love your storytelling

That was so nice of you to buy a gift card for your bird-removing hero.
Also, I always forget I even HAVE a vegetable crisper. And here I am, prepping for a party and worrying that for the first time in months, my fridge is too full for all its contents. The crisper! All that unused space in the crisper! I am dumb (and you are helpful). Thanks. :-)

Yeah, I prefer the vegetables in my crisper. Now, if it were pina coladas, that'd be another story.
