On the way to the bus stop, I saw a pigeon flying down across the street towards me, beating its wings to slow down. Then it ducked into the yellow lamp of a traffic light. As I got closer, I realized it was building a nest there in front of the array of LEDs.

I also realized that there was a sign on the post: DON'T FEED THE PIGEONS.

Ha.



Then in the afternoon, something began to happen at the studio across the street from Spümcø. Wiry girls began to show up and do shadowboxing and kicking, Out on the sidewalk. Work ground to a halt.

Now there are eighteen of them outside, all practicing in pairs.

Absolutely no work will be done at Spümcø today. By anyone. Well, except for the short, fat secretary, who is loudly proclaming that the entire studio are pigs.

Ahh, the universe. Amusing, on the odd occasion.

And of course, were it a group of shirtless men and she went looking, why, that wouldn't be piggish at all. :"D

I'm sure she just feels very ugly when everyone else stares at girls that she'll never be as pretty as. I know the feeling.

I don't know how she got much work done if she's busy ranting about everyone else, though. ;P

I wonder what she would've called me then. I'd be shoving the boys aside to watch! ;D

I've seen birds nesting on the traffic lights in Mountain View as well. I don't remember if they were in front of the yellow light, though. I wonder if they have any colour preference..

Wow, short and fat. Why doesn't she just shoot herself & get it over with, eh?

Me-ow.

Trust me, her shape seemed more exaggerated when in immediate contrast to the karate jailbait across the street.
