For the "from below" group. This is at the little plaza that is across the street from UCI. It's a cute little place with art-house movies and trader joes and one of the best stationary stores in town.
Speekina stationary, so this guy is in the stationary store -- and it's like a paper heaven, right? Papers and cards and bags and photograph albums and little things like that. This guy is shuffling around in there -- he looked about 30, 35.
And he was really in my space. For a while (okay, only minutes) it felt like he was following me (so I gave him a definite vibe about getting.out.of.my.space, space vampire). Anyway, he's shuffling around and finally he corners this poor unsuspecting clerk and he says (quite loudly), "so what is it that you do here?" And then he made the clerk painstakingly explain that they are a stationary store and he still didn't get it.
I was ready to clobber him myself. But I practiced some self-restraint.
"What is it that you do here?!" He was so obtuse I half-expected a camera crew to jump out and say "just kidding."
If that had happened I definitely would have clobbered him.
...to get into that "squirrel-proof" feeder.
I got a new bird feeder that is allegedly squirrel proof. We'll see. The birds came right away and about ten minutes later Mr. Cheeky appeared. He's bound and determined to figure it out.

It's been a pretty bad day; I'm not going to lie. So I'm posting this image as I imagine laying on my back in a field (in summer, of course), watching the birds fly overhead and telling myself that things are looking up.
