Rogue Squirrel Gets High From Fermented Pumpkins
It was a lovely day. My former boss moved into this huge house in Maple Grove and invited us to his place for lunch. It was a great time. Holy crap, I had no idea there were so many houses tucked away out there. We always wondered who shopped at those creepy stores, Arbor Lakes and all that. Just for kicks, we stopped at one of the model homes as we were driving away from his place. I was filled with this strange blend of attraction and repulsion as we walked through it. How marvelous to have seventeen different sitting rooms to choose from when you decide to curl up with a book! Four entire families could live in the damn house at the same time and never run into each other. Creep-o-la.
When we returned home, we found a squirrel gnawing away at one of the pumpkins that has been rotting away on our front steps since Halloween. The squirrel was acting very strange. It tried to scale our front door and fell flat on its back. It did this several times. It rolled around lazily in front of our front door for awhile. We realized the sucker was high. Were the pumpkins fermented?
The squirrel entertained us for quite awhile. Then my mom and Greta showed up. We went to Arc's Value Village and had a magical time. We spent more than two hours there. It was pretty hilarious. We left with so much crap. Then Jucy Lucys and PBR at Sporty's, Greta's favorite haunt.
We sent Car home with mom. She's going to love it in the country.
Last night, joLynn and I had a great time at the Varsity theater, saw The Owls and Faux Jean. What a swell venue, I love it. The Owls were super fun to watch.

that squirrel is HILARIOUS!!!
as is the great particle explosion transition. nice work!
I want to report the the Squirrel is doing fine. I saw it this morning running around the trees with a cup of coffee.
Maple Grove is the creepiest place in the cities. It was a Beverly Hills version of the military base I grew up on/near. I can completely understand the appeal of a few extra rooms for each person in the house and a safe place to wait for the rapture (which will probably pass Maple Grove right on by as it's already Heaven on Earth) but I might start shooting if neighbors came to my house with a signed petition noting that my bird house was 15% off kilter, my law wasn't mowed double-crosscut and my child left their un-aesthetic toys in the back yard again.
All of the art in the model home matched the couches with just a splash of color that matched the knick-nacks. It all looked like restaurant design. Everyone who moves into these houses should get a logo.
That being said, the lunch was amazing, the house was cool, and their kids were able to run around outside without supervision...
I absolutely love the squirrel video. Nice job.
I call Arbor Lakes "Arbor Mist."
Creepy suburb shopping malls made to look like fake downtowns.
But I must admit that the couple times I've shopped there I did enjoy the experience. ;-)
Leesha and Car had a fight, but Fat and Car are getting along I think
