I have one of those stupid colds where I feel too crappy to really do anything but not so crappy that I feel I shouldn't be, so I keep trying to do things and then getting dizzy and sitting down and staring at the TV while nursing a whiskey and soda for two or three hours at a stretch before I feel guilty and try to do something again. As a result, I am very stupid today. So instead of babbling on and proving that to you, here are some pictures of some pretty things I saw this week:
Purple martin house. I've posted pictures of these before, but did you know there's a whole purple martin sanctuary behind Flipnotics Coffee Shop?
I think the martins are somewhere else on their little migratory pattern right now. All the house openings were blocked with clothespins to keep other, shittier birds out, but birds or no, I think it's cool that someone devoted this much prime real estate to birdhouses.
Orchids in the front office at work. They're blooming now and block the view of the flammable materials storage shed quite nicely.
Storm's a-comin'! Just in time to soak everyone at happy hour.
God, even this much activity is making me dizzy. I'm going to bed.
