I saw birds attacking something like a weasel on the creek bank this morning. Long, dark, sleek, and weasel-like. Do we have weasels? Minks?

It definitely wasn't an otter.

And as a side note, insomnia because of NEXT years jobs, in late June, is stupid.

And yet here I am, awake, thinking about the job market. Gotta finish that thesis first.

yeah, it's stupid, but I think we've all done it. the whole things sucks, really.

and no, I figured it wasn't an otter, but the water narrowed it down some, I thought. if it was a mink, it's entirely possible that the birds were dive-bombing him b/c he'd just grabbed one of them- they're really fast, from what I hear- incredibly well-designed predators.

"incredibly well-designed predators."
