It’s cool noticing pets grow. Trix (the ferret) has started to terrorize things he couldn’t reach before. He is obviously much smarter and more familiar with the terrain then weeks prior. Trix’ training & education is even more so noticeable when you handle less trained ferrets which may bite or are generally annoying.
It’s cool even just noticing how velvet (the tarantula) inspects changes in her cage and how Avery (the Guinea Pig) has learned to be extremely squeaky when Zippy is invading the kitchen in order to get more treats. I’m listening to Zippy talk to Avery right now saying, “I’m hungry. Not you. You’ve had treats all day!”. lol.
We spend quite a bit of time with our animals. It’s awesome.
I managed spending the weekend w/Zippy and we got a new family member but I will get into that when I have more time.
Strange relationship with distance.
I think everyone has some strange trigger to distance traveled. If you’re on a motorcycle feel when your tank is nearly empty or if the road you drive daily is squirrely you might count the corners. Some people focus on the time. I drove 140 miles, it’s been two hours hasn’t it? Maybe you don’t drive a whole lot so you judge your overall distance by when your next oil change is. 1,000 more miles and it’s time to change the oil again. The most notoriuos thought measuring distance in my head, as strange as it seems, is how many times I could have driven to my friend Jesko’s house. Jesko (Zippy’s brother & my family/friend) lives in Little Falls, Minnesota about ~600 miles away from my house in Clinton, Missouri.[map] I find myself thinking “I could have just driven to Jesko’s house. Damnit. I wanna go.”. What is your strange distance association?
Do you wave?
I got bored today and started waving at people. After a while I ended up on the interstate (no oncomming traffic) after getting 50 people to wave back. I waved at everyone I saw. hehe. Here are the simple/strange things I noticed.
Old ladies seem to never wave back although may see you.
Middle aged women seem to never notice, see, or care about the drivers of oncomming traffic thus rarely wave.
Middle aged men have the best chances of noticing you and waving back.
You may not see a Cemi Truck drivers wave becuase they rarely lift their hands far enough above the dash for us lowly non-rig drivers to see.(and I’m in a truck. hah).
the earlier you make your wave noticeable, the better the odds of getting a wave in return.
Being in a town immediately skyrockets the rate of return on waves.
I’ve driven thousands of miles within Missouri alone. I’m pretty sure being a proffesional driver is not a viable option for me.
Happy Valentines Day
