disturbing sight

I was driving to meet some friends from work for drinks tonight, when out of the corner of my eye I saw the poor remains of a small animal. Or so I thought. Morbid curiosity abound in me, after looking for other traffic I took a closer look as I went by. It turned out not to be a small animal, but someone's weave, left knottty and abandoned on the median of a right turn lane, laying there like a hubcap no one cared about going back to pick up. I'm not sure if I'm more disturbed by the fact that people actually wear those things, or that eventually some bird will make the base of it's nest out of the discarded piece laying on the side of the road.

Just an update

Lots of exciting things for me in this post, not so much anything profound though.

Jess and I found an apartment downtown together, and will be moving in at the end of August. Now I just need to pack some things and get rid of some others.

My passport came. HOORAY!!! I was hoping I wouldn't have to be freaking out with the trip to Greece coming up in about 7 weeks. It's here, and I did a little dance to celebrate its arrival.

This weekend might bring about two great parts of summer: small town festivals, and movies. Possible happenings for Friday are going to Riverfest in Watertown to see Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, which would be quite a bit of fun/nostalgia. Saturday could include going to the drive in theatre in Jefferson to see the double feature of The Simpsons Movie and the new Die Hard flick.

I'll also probably do some packing and disc golfing while I'm at it. In the meantime, I'm just waiting for laundry to get done while watching some baseball.
