Blurb

This blog follows my journey from NYC to Seattle through the woods and over the mountains to the west coast I go!

Bunny Returns

I saw the little black bunny again today. Same spot: huddled in the corner of the auto body repair parking lot. It was raining so the poor little thing was all wet. It has to be a pet, right? A wild bunny would find better cover than under a Nissan maxima. I should have jumped the fence and grabbed him. I'll try calling the auto body place later. 




Worm Attack

Now that it is no longer fully dark in the morning when I get to work, I tried taking a photo of the crazy worm situation. 


Doesn't quite capture the full extent of it, though.

Bunny

This morning on my way to work I walked past an auto body lot and spied a cute  black bunny huddling in the corner. Wtf? It was definitely cold--around 40 F--so I was worried that he was freezing. When I called to him he hopped a couple feet to the right so I couldn't scoop him up and bring him to my first period class! My coffee guy said that there are wild rabbits around. But this bunny looked more like a pet. I hope he is doing alright.

Empty

The whole top floor of Top Pot is empty! This should be helpful in keeping me focused on all of the work I need to do.

Overheard in the Thai Restaurant

While I was waiting to pick up my Thai food, I witnessed a completely eye-rolling conversation.

Two women approached the counter of the restaurant and looked at a menu. One woman ordered a dish that has tofu, which prompted the waitress to ask if they want the tofu fried or not. The woman asked if the tofu is gluten-free. The nice waitress nodded her head and said yes. The second woman then asks, "Is it fried in oil? The same oil used for other things? Because then it's not actually gluten-free." The first woman then said to her friend, "just don't get it fried." The second woman continues to ask about the oil and the poor waitress eventually says, "yes, all same oil." 

I had no idea there are so many people with celiac disease.

Valentine's Day

A whole new world for the Valentine's Day holiday industrial complex: flowers from the local marijuana store (with bonus pipe!)

That Moment

That moment when you start taking Vitamin D supplements because the sun doesn't shine enough.

No biggie!

The Actual Sea

Here, have a slab of fish:





Yes, I totally devoured an entire half of a fish. Turbot. Pretty good, actually. 

Plague!

The worms are everywhere this morning! It is like a damn plague out there. With the heavy rain, worms are getting washed onto the sidewalk. Walking to work is like navigating an obstacle course. Since it's dark outside, I can only actually see the worms that are illuminated by a street light.

Drone!

I was walking down 5th Avenue this evening and heard a buzzing noise... Like a very large fly. When I looked up I saw a drone flying about 50 feet above my head. It was a small one at 2 feet in diameter or so. I think it was the same kind that landed on the White House lawn. Red and green blink in lights. What in the world was it doing? I point to Amazon.
