But The Joke's On Me
Another exciting evening here in libraryland.
Ha! I'm just kidding.

Sent out a wave of submissions yesterday, with the last one dropped in the mail this morning.
Soon I anticipate a wave of rejections, because, well, y'know.

Our birdfeeder is being rapidly depleted, thanks to a chipmunk's dedication to his craft: cheek stuffing. Lisa thinks there must be a family of them out there, but I've never seen more than one at a time. I prefer to think of a single chipmunk, a lesser cousin to Alvin, Theodore, and the other one whose name I can never remember, forced to get by in the wilds of suburbia, possibly reselling the excess seed he steals to the pigeon mob to pay for his dance lessons.

For the pigeons I'm imagining the cartoon characters from one of the "Animaniacs" segments. "Goodfeathers" I think it was. (I need to add that to my list of DVDs to acquire...)

Just the pigeon mob I was thinking of! Which is strange, because I don't remember watching Animaniacs that much. I think my brain is leaking.
