Observation

I was watching a bird wander around campus yesterday and noticed he had something sticking out of his mouth. My first thought was that I had caught him mid-meal. I realized it was actually a giant leaf and a few twigs. This is when I came to my realization: birds don't really have hands. Thus, anytime they want to pick something up to move or carry it, they must use their mouth. Sounds kind of shitty to me. Think about all the things you pick up in a normal day, for all the various reasons one might pick something up. Then imagine putting them in your mouth. And on top of that, if you were a bird, it should almost go without saying that you wouldn't have any pockets, so forget about using those to carry things.

Party Time=Excellent

Some bands played on campus tonight in Kellogg Circle. It was a great mix of good people and great weather. I consider today the Official Start of Summer. Start spreading the word nationwide.

The last few days have been filled with anticipation as I wait to hear about a possible internship for with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. I'd be pretty stoked about it if I got it, but we will just have to hold our breath for now till they make a decision. If I don't do the internship I'll move back to wichita and work for Borders again. So if worse comes to worse, I'll spend my time in a bookstore making delicious smoothies. Not a shabby way to spend my time.
