Disturbing Things
Feb. 17th, 2007 09:33 am2. While driving to work today, I came across a clot of ravens in the road. No big surprise; they're EVERYWHERE here. It was also no surprise to see, when they took off as I came closer, than one of them had something dangling from its beak. They're always getting into whatever trash they can find. He hopped to the edge of the road, and as I passed, I saw what it was.
An unfurled condom. An unfurled pink condom.
Now, to be fair, I couldn't tell if it had been used or not. Maybe some kids found it or bought it and unrolled it or something. Maybe the raven liked the taste of strawberry-flavored rubber.
But it was still weird.

Disturbing Things
Oct. 2nd, 2006 01:35 pmI think maybe I'll start a list of Disturbing Things.
1. Watching my dog eat "beefhide chips." I mean, it wouldn't normally be too bad, excepts she's always trying to swallow the pieces before they've been made small enough to travel through her esophagus. Then she'll regurgitate it ("kkkk...HACK! COUGH! CHOKE! blork...chew chew chew") and chew it some more, then try again to swallow it. Then she does it again. And again. And again.
Each time I think, "Yeah...not gonna give her any more of those things." Then I forget about it the next day and give her another one.
