Sometimes I just give up wondering about what’s going on with the universe. So I had today off of work to get some things done around the property. I got up and moving quickly, poured my coffee and stepped outside to see if the weather gods were smility today. And………. there it was. A full sized zoo critter standing in my garage stealing bird seed. I know right? That peacock was STEALING! I mean, I no longer live in Detroit and don’t expect such shenanigans normally. But besides the criminal aspect of this whole escapade I did have to pause for a moment as my mind registered that:
- I do not own a peacock.
- My neighbors do not have peacocks.
- Peacocks are not exactly a native bird of Maryland. Where the hell did this thing come from?
- My dog was not going apesh#t at the giant bird in the garage. I’ll be speaking to the dog about this lapse of security discipline.
- Mmmm coffee is good.
- This bird really doesn’t seem to care that I’m in the garage with it.
- I was hungry.
- Ugh it almost 90 degrees at 0800.
- I have stuff to do.
- Whatever, I don’t care and it can stay if it wants but I’m not paying any more vet bills.
Ten days to LibertyCon people!
