The more observant among you who recieved gift subscriptions to various children's nature magazines in your youth may think to yourselves, "that doesn't look much like a bird's nest."

Well, it isn't. At least, part of it isn't. That nest is a duplex. It turns out that a family of squirrels lives downstairs, and the parrots nest upstairs.

In the proverbial* other news...

I miss Carolyn Veronicaque.

"That's not true! Sometimes we talk about how great we are."

"I'm going to mass tomorrow. That way if the plane crashes, I won't die without having done my little part to keep it in the air."
"Are you a nervous flier?"
"I'm a nervous everything."

Oh, y los que quieren postcards had better get me their addresses soon.
