So last night when I got home from work/gym, I pulled my chariot into the garage like I always do and on the way down the driveway to go inside, I found this GIANT maple leaf. I mean, we're talking bigger than my FACE here, people.
It was sitting on the ground, so randomly and I thought, "how cool!". So I picked it up and brought it inside to show chico. I made him close his eyes first, 'cause , you know, it IS a leaf, so I had to try to build the suspense a little. When he opened them, he was like, "Holy shit! It's bigger than your face!" (see? told ya.)
Here is a pic of Monsieur Maple Leaf...
The leaf is very green and very maple-y. It had a white fuzzy bug on it, which I thought was fuzz or a spider web or something, until it started walking. yikes! It also had a little red bug on it - those little red bugs you find crawling all over concrete (what the heck ARE those things?!). Also, there was some bird poop on it, but I think that gives it character, so I left it. =)
I can't tell you why I'm totally amazed by this little piece of nature in suburban NJ (or with the funny squirrels that skitter across our roof and hang out in the tree outside our bedroom eating nuts). With everything that has been going on lately in my life, maybe I am trying to find something enjoyable in the simplest things. Or maybe I'm just simply losing my mind - THIS (!) is a distinct possibility.
I work in a high pressure, high stress job with a high stress boss who controls and manipulates us through fear and demoralization. Whoop-dee-fuckin-do!!
Now you see why I picked up the leaf?
HA!
I think the small print should read "Some regression may occur."
(and i don't mean by the skivvies themselves!)
Hmmm...I think the ex must've been on an "underwear time machine". LOL When we started dating in the late 90's, she wore underwear similar to the 1990 example...but when we broke up, I remember them being similar to the 18th c. models...;).
