On the subject of vermin: I was mowing the lawn and almost broke my neck avoiding running over a frog by accident. Later i was weedwhacking and it was everything i could do to restrain myself from deliberately lopping off the heads of sky rats (geese).

Outside of the leprosy thing BK, amount spot on, thats pretty much what you were saying.
They only wreck cars if you hit them with your car, I highly doubt armadillos run around cannonballing cars for kicks.

My toddler just fell walking across the living room and my 3 year old yells "Down goes Frazier!"

That's my girl.

She also told me today in a very serious voice that you don't say oh shit, you say oh nuts.

nicely drunk. Not sure about tomorrow morning, but tonight, feeling this drunk after a restless week as soon as I'm back from vacation feels good

it was my lawschool classmate's 30th b-day, so got to catch up with a bunch of people I have not seen in a while, as well as meet some new good people.

Alll this without making an idiot of myself.

And tomorrow I get to sleep in.

Life is quite good. Hopefully no hangover tomorrow.

Going to York today, officially the greatest city in the World!

As part of the day, I get to meet The Retired Bridgeburner & see some of her falcons and stuff!

Also part of the day is seeing some of the people I grew up with at a party.

And we're starting the day with bacon!!

They are pest. That's what I'm saying. Nothing world changing in the need to try and break down wha isa goes throo dis cajun's brainzmeat.

Pest.

Raccoons are cute whittle things. I feed them at our park.

So upon quick read of some articles some 15-20% of ninebanded armadillos are infected with leprosy and some 95% of people are completely immune to it. That makes some 0.875% chance you will get infected after handling a nine banded armadillo. Is it that difficult to just not touch them?
We have deer here jumping to road out of nowhere and fucking up cars regularly, they can't be dodged nowhere near as easily as armadillos, they can also carry rabbies, that doesn't make them pests. Your personal preference about how cute an animal is does neither. They are also on way higher intellectual level than slugs or insects.

Mild hangover. The weather's grey, and not very conductive to going biking and running errands.


But I got to sleep in till about 1 PM. I haven't had that luxury in a while.

[Tiste Simeon]

As expected it was a great day in York. TRB is even lovelier in person and we had a fantastic time at the Bird of Prey Centre. And, as forum rule state, when Malazites meet, photos must be posted...

From right to left, my wife, me, TRB, and a Red Tail Hawk whose name I forgot.

I'm too far north to be looking forward to the Winter months. Plus, I spent 32 years in Minnesota, where it's colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra for 6 months out of 12. I do enjoy Winter stargazing though, so it's not all bad.

Spend time down here from May/Sept and you ll feel how precious winter is to us!

One of the many things i miss about living down there. I didnt turn my heat on once the entire year and a half we were there.

[TheRetiredBridgeburner]

Was lovely to meet Sim and Liz! Also, the Red Tail is about six months old and called Mace

[EmperorMagus]

I suddenly want to play with a baby hawk.

Do they poop on your hands?

[Dutch]

Just had a great job interview, will hear more about it next week.

Only if you're slow

My grandmother gave me quite a bit of money. New bathroom, here I come! Hopefully I'll have it done by winter. This also makes me able to buy a new, more efficient fireplace. In early spring we're all getting balconies. IT'll be a completely different apartment in not so long

[worry]

That's one way to go. The other is to find a really good candy shop and buy some of everything.

And that ultimate lounge suite with 80" curved UHD 4K and all those other technobabble catchphrase TVs. For the porn games, movies, Netflix and documentaries.

[amphibian]

I would go for a nice bathroom over a cool TV every single time. Significant other candidates are usually happy watching shows on tablets and love love love cool bathrooms.

[worry]

You could install a nice medium screen TV in the bathroom.
