Aug. 29, 2006 - Osama Birdladen wants to kill me!
This is my desk. In case you're especially observant and notice an enormous panda hat and whoopie cushion on my text book, firstly, good on you. Secondly, these aren't usually there when I'm studying but they were placed there to show my blog-readers what is important to me. It's potent symbolism.
So why have I put a photo of my desk? Well although my chair isn't in the photo, you can see where it goes. A few days ago, I was sitting there gazing off into my backyard. All of a sudden I notice something is gunning it straight for me. It is a beautiful Lorikeet. For those of you not from Australia, a lorikeet looks like this:
Anyway, so the colourful little fucker is coming STRAIGHT at me at about 30-40km/hr. I start to pack bricks and my whole life flashes before my eyes as the little thing gets closer and then
BAM!
For some reason I had forgotten there was a window there, much like the bird. It smashes into it, falls to the ground, gets up and flies off again.
2 days later (today), I am seated at my desk again and doing study when I look up and de ja vu. There is a bright bird flapping straight for me. I look on in fear as the thing gets closer and closer and then
BAM!
Ahhh the ever-present window saves me again. Same deal- the bird flaps about in a state of confusion and then flies off a few seconds later.
I'm concerned. Does anyone else find it odd that Lorikeets seemed to have declared a secular-jihad on me? What the fuck is going on? Why are they on suicide missions to fuck me up. The window has saved me twice but what the hell is going to happen when they have little barrels of TNT strapped to their bodies? Our windows are sturdy but I can't say that they are immune to high speed detonating birds.
So, I think we can safely conclude that Osama Birdladen has put a contract out on me..........nothing can stop him....except maybe my windows.
Stephdahousecat is a wicked wicked individual who is very generous! I love that scrag like she was my own child.
