(quote)MY WEEK CONSENSED(unquote)

Once more, to appease your never ending quest to know about my personal life, or if I just flat out amuse you, I give you, "MY WEEK CONDENSED". Enjoy.

Monday (2/2), my friend and I got the munchies and NEEDED Jack-In-The-Crack like never before! We thought it would be lame to take the freeway from Placerville, (after all, whats the fun in going 80 miles an hour on the freeway when you could go the same speed on a wavy road?) so we took Forni. All of the sudden (the following takes place in a matter of seconds): WHAM!!! Something hit the window! We both screamed! She hit the breaks! I am thrown forward! I get whip-lash from the damn seatbelt! The water in the cup that I had in my hands at the time is flung all over the passengers side of the car! The car comes to a screeching stop. We go back to see what the hell just happened, and if there was anything we could do about it. We get out of the car, and low and behold, there is a conscious, yet disorientated, 6 inch owl standing on the side of the road. This was was a first for both of us, and we just felt terrible. Long story short, we got a hold of a lady that worked for Sierra Wildlife Rescue, and she is currently treating it for shock and trauma. She told us that screech owls were widely known for diving into oncoming traffic, because they want to catch the moths they see in the headlights. She invited us to go with her when she releases it back into the wild.

Tuesday, (2/3) was the 24th birthday of a good friend of mine and the girl I got the munchies with. We decided that we were going to take him and another friend out to Jamba Juice and to Red Hawk for some games. After about 20 minutes of luckless gambling, we decided to go to the children's arcade. I believe no one should ever be too old for arcade games, and trust me, it was defiantly money better spent.

Wednesday (2/4), nothing much. The most exciting thing that happened to me was seeing some of my friends (ok, one of them was a friend, the other, well, I tolerate her existence) dressed up as twacked-out Wizard Of Oz characters running around campus asking, "has anyone seen Toto?" That was interesting...

Thursday (2/5), nadda worth filling your time with. Same with Friday. Sorry.

  2. I am so happy to hear that you contacted the Sierra Wildlife Rescue about the owl. I am sure many people would have just left it on the side of the road to die. I had a traumatic experience once with a scrub jay flying into my sliding glass dor and then convulsing on the ground. Luckily, it recovered and flew away, but I am not ashamed to say I cried at the sight of the suffering bird. You definitely did a good deed that day.

  3. AH! An owl? I cannto believe an owl flew into the car!

    I was driving home the other night and it was really dark, i was close to my house, but i saw a kitty on the side of the road just walking. I love animals and i so i stopped to pick it up because it was almost hit by like 5 cars. So i stopped, turned on my hazard lights and was on the side of the road. I got out, and without thinking, i locked the door. The car was still running. I locked myself out of the car. I was stranded there for 1.5 hours until my cousin was able to come pry open the door with a branch and get a longer branch to press the window down button. Finally, we got the car unlocked.

    Hah. Long story. But thats what i get for stopping to save a kitty. =]
