Adventures of the Week 6/28/15
I am (almost) some bunny’s hero.
Earlier this week I woke up to a thumping noise outside the window. I pulled back the window shade (actually just a giant sheet of styrofoam intended to keep the sun out) and saw that a bunny had fallen into the window well and was stuck. I decided I was going to get it out because a) I do not like dead bunnies and b) It was really loud.
Unfortunately, the bunny was really fast and hard to catch. I spent 45 minutes chasing him around the window well with a shovel before devising a clever strategy to trick him into hiding in a large bucket and tipping it over so he was stuck in the bucket and I could pull the bucket out. I released him and he nibbled on a little grass. Then he saw me and freaked out because I had just chased him around a window well with a shovel for 45 minutes. And then he ran into a mouse trap. So… That was basically just a waste of 45 minutes.
An elaboration on my super powers.
As we’re on the topic of heroism, I think now would be an appropriate to list my known super powers. As already discussed, I think I have squirrel powers, which has continued to be reaffirmed this week. I also have a power in which I get to a store or restaurant right before it gets really busy. Miranda also wanted me to point out that I’m really good at knowing things I’m not supposed to know, though I think that’s debatable.
I also discovered a new power. I can sense when Taylor Swift is being played on the radio. Sometimes I’ll randomly switch the station and there will be a Taylor Swift song on. Granted, it helps that her songs are on pretty much all the time. But When I was driving around the other day at 4 am and there was nothing good on the radio, I thought to switch over to the country station and there she was. To celebrate, I made my own Bad Blood music video poster. And since we’re talking about it, I really want that music video to be turned into like a full length feature film.
