Feed the Birds

Am I the worst blogger in the world? Most likely yes.

At any rate, here is a funny story, perhaps you will get a chuckle (I know I've been shaking my head in amusement at myself all day for it).

Today for my lunch break at work, I decided I wanted to eat something really bad for me. So I hopped in my jeep and went to A&W and got a hamburger and fries, etc etc. I ate it there, since the breakroom at work is pretty cold.

With half a thing of fries, my gravy, and most of my pop still left, I figured it would be okay to head back with the leftovers.

I am a clumsy sort, and as such, took precautions so that I wouldn't spill food or drink on my still new vehicle. I get to my car, door unlocked, purse chucked to driver seat. Everything is good.

Then as I go to put the food into my car... the fries spill ALL OVER the pavement.

Crud.

I totally saw this coming, tried to be careful, and I still couldn't prevent it.

So then I just laugh (there's nothing I can do so I might as well get a good chuckle out of the matter), pick up the non-biodegradable items (the fries container, and the gravy container), and get in my car.

Just as I do, two crows swoop down on the spilled fries, happy for the free eats.

As I'm pulling away I see this swarm of seagulls swoop over my jeep and divebomb the fries.

Man am I glad I wasn't walking that day.

So I lost half a thing of french fries, but I got a good laugh, fed the birdies, and probably saved myself some calories on the hips.

See? Maybe I can do this blog thing better.
