Green Eggs and Wildlife

Everything is green again! Finally. And it's starting to be high 50s, barely 60, fairly consistently. I ran in just a t-shirt and shorts for the first time yesterday. In the words of a high schooler: epic.

The marathon looms in the distance. As Frodo once nervously approached Mount Doom with Samwise Gamgee, I too must now start the inevitable climb to the marathon date in June.

The hype machine for the Lions has begun turning. With another stellar draft and an improved D-line, I can't wait to watch the Lions absolutely maul the competition on their way to a perfect, 16-0 season just two years after going 0-16. SUPERBOWL 2011. Done.

I saw two baby moose that had only been born the day before. They could barely walk and were the size of little dogs. Curse the moosen! They will attack our vegetables and steal our food supply. Soon they'll steal fire from us like that monkey tried to do in Jungle Book and then who knows where the world will go. Vigilance!

Orcas are dangerous. I watched them on Blue Planet spend 6 hours drowning a baby gray whale only so that they could eat its tonge and jaw. Are you kidding? These monsters kill just for the sport of it. Keep an eye on your waters everyone.

Do people still say Guaransheed back home?

You can still bike outside here at 11 PM and not have trouble seeing because its a long twilight. Ridiculous.

Come Memorial Day weekend, I should be going on a trip to Homer, AK in my flashy mini-cooper. I won two days of a free rental because of my mustache's charisma during a People's Choice competition. Hope is this small hippie town off the edge of the Kenai penninsula where there is lots of fishing, camping, and beautiful wildlife all on the sea. It should be a good time for all.

Most exciting of all: I asked the cook at Covenant House if I could have a special meal for my birthday and she agreed to make everyone Breakfast for Lunch on June 9th. If you don't like breakfast foods for lunch or dinner, you need to figure out why you have lost your soul. It's so delicious. It has the potential to be a best day ever. Eggs, hashbrowns, omelettes, french toast, fruit, pancakes, waffles, toast, biscuits, orange juice, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Oh yes. Oh yes.
