    That the crows aren’t befriending me

    Have you ever read up on crows? Whatever you do, do not get on their bad side unless you want your grandchildren to suffer.

    I've heard they can recognize you and carry grudges. I wonder if that played into the Crow movie choice of avatar...

    😂
    Same. We probably did the same limited google search but I’m not gonna chance it. I think it said they could tell future generations about you or something like that. Lol.

    But why would you do something to provoke their ire? Be nice & they bring you little pieces of trash to show their appreciation

    Well I was trying to save some baby bunnies potentially. Idk. I figured I was going to let nature run it’s course after I read. I didn’t see anything actually happen. I just knew the bunnies hung out on the edge of my yard. Then I saw the crows. The crows make an extremely annoying sound early in the mornings. I scared them away a few times. Then I read up on the crows. Then I said, I can’t save all the baby bunnies in the world.

    Nature can be so heartbreaking 💔

    I just got taken out by a kid on a bicycle. I am not at the sense of humor stage of this yet like I was 2 seconds after a woman jogging with a stroller almost took me out. Anything other than a car has never been on my bingo card.

    The parents and kid came up behind me while I was out walking and the kid knocked me on my *kitten*.

    The father tried to help me up but, god, I was pissed. He said it was an accident but I said he REALLY needed to get him and his *kitten* kid away from me. I don't normally swear in from of kids....

    I blame all of them. None of them were paying enough attention to see the kid come up too fast. No one told the kid to slow down or go around.

    Like I needed more places to bleed on me (I bleed really easily) or another bruise which has already started forming.

    Yikes what a stupid family you encountered. Hope you're feeling ok and not too hurt by this incident

    I need to color my hair, I’ve needed to for a couple weeks.
    Apparently I’ve developed a “thing” about it.
    It’s no big deal, only takes 45min but I can hardly make myself do it.
    I don’t get it but I have lots of hangups.

    I haven't had my hair cut in 3 years at least because the idea of sitting in a hair dressers chair for at least 45 minutes makes me twitch....I haven't had colour done in years in forever because it takes sooooo long. I shall embrace the grey

    I'll live! :) Mostly just the bruise and some streaming blood on my forearm/elbow. And my fury for the rest of the walk fueling longer, harder strides I don't normally take.

    I just like sleeping in 🤣 I shouldn't complain because had my volunteer drive person not cancelled this morning I would have had to pick her up at 7:15 am. So really it all worked out Sonya I shouldn't be irked

    Didn’t sleep enough last night, got to work late, and now my computer won’t work correctly. And where’s IT support? Nowhere to be found. And where’s my coworker who was supposed to come in and help me? Also nowhere to be found. Looks like my long day just got even longer. I’m so tired of being the only one I can rely on.

    Oh, and my makeup job looks horrible and allergies are making it hard to breathe.

    I have not been eating many sweets lately. It’s not intentional; I just haven’t been in the mood. As a result, normal foods-foods that should be savory - are tasting sweet to me. I find this extremely annoying. My tortilla should not be sweet. The salsa should not be sweet. I can’t think what else right now but there have been quite a few things in the past few days.

    Hmmm maybe. I used to love Snickers or a frozen Milky Way but it just doesn’t sound good anymore. I would like a butt sized bowl of pasta though

    Vons/Pavilions/Safeway had the just right size (not mini, not full) of the Twix cookie dough candy bars on sale but I haven't tried it yet. There's a milky way version that they didn't have (which is why I brought this up :) Also, because I always used to not be able to have a snickers without a milky way...they were like a matched set).

    I can't even look at pasta without scarfing every last bit of it down.

    Yeah it’s hard for me to moderate pasta. I compromised with eggplant rounds with sauce & mozzarella. Eggplant makes my mouth feel funny but it was worth it

    I like the idea of Milky Way and snickers being a matched set kind of like salt and pepper

    Also plus too I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of those stores. And I don’t think I’ve ever had a candy bar with cookie dough in it.

    On the plus side I think I’m getting back to normal because I’m about to go get myself a couple of Oreos from the kitchen

    I could never get into eggplant. Too squishy? Not sure.

    I think they're normal candy bars with like a cookie doughish spread in the middle? Cookie dough flavored whatever instead of the nougat in a milky way and whatever's in a twix? I love twix :) And milky ways. :)

    I haven't had a real oreo in a while. I've been eating knock off/generic brand sandwich cookies.

    Someone was sitting in the parking lot when I rolled in at 10 to 8 and they are parked in my boss’s unofficial spot and they had the nerve to ring the doorbell before my computer had even booted up and when I finally got to the door to answer it they weren’t at the door they were back in their car and they were just sitting there and their appointment isn’t until 830 and my boss isn’t even in yet

    "Do better."

    Not just because I just read it in a post on here but I watch a tv show and in any of the preview threads on twitter, anyone who doesn't like a storyline or a character or whatever says that.

    *kitten*, you don't like it, write your own damned soap opera and get it on the air.
