Duck Pond Path Is Clear!!!

There was a tree blocking the path for a while. I think it fell during the bad storms we had.

Well. I went by this morning on my run and it’s GONE! The path is clear!!

That thing was HUGE. Must have been a ton of work to cut, mice, etc. but there isn’t even a fleck of sawdust anywhere! Anyone have any idea what happened?

Path closure

Starting to get reeeeeally tired of that fallen tree that’s been blocking the duck pond path in the park. Everyone is just feeding the raccoons with no thought towards their sodium levels and they’re just ballooning up and starting to threaten me when I don’t have food to offer them!

And the squirrels! The squirrels are running around flashing their squirrel tails, possible rabid, and just riling up the ducks by stealing their seeds and nuts.

Anyways whose duck do I need to pond to get this tree removed?? When will the city council step up.

In completely unrelated news, and having nothing to do with my stress, I’ve sadly been let go from the pawn shop after 4 years. So if anyone has any job leads… please reach out.

I accidentally gave my lucky penny as change to a customer. Can anyone help me find the customer?

Now, this is not at all like that incident last November. This time, it was an accident and entirely on me. Early yesterday morning the first customer of the day came in and bought my custom Frank Sinatra fishing lure (only $9.99 for a limited time only). He handed me a 10 dollar bill, and since there was no change in the register, I just reached into my pockets for a penny like I usually do. Unfortunately, my lucky penny wasn't so lucky today, and without thinking I picked a penny from my left pocket instead of my right, where I keep my non-lucky coins.

The customer was a polite, cheerful young man who mentioned he's a big Sinatra fan as I was ringing him up. He has a cleft chin, very curly hair almost like an afro, and was wearing a t-shirt with dogs playing poker printed on it. I don't know if he lives here or if he was visiting from out of town, but if you know him, please let him know that I want the penny back, and will trade him a shiny new nickel for it, in light of the inconvenience.

It is a 1987 penny, slightly green and oxidized on the tail side. It's brought me a lot of luck, and I'd hate to lose it!

Do not go on your phone at the movie theater!

I was very excited yesterday for the special screening of Big Sal's nature documentary at the Granite Street Cinema. But someone, and I won't say names, was on their phone for most of the movie in front of me. I whispered to them to turn off their phone, but they quite rudely brushed me off. And the theater ushers were of no help in resolving the issue.

I was very dissapointed that there was such a distraction while I was trying to watch the movie. Please everyone, remember theater etiquette! If not for me, then do it for Sal. He is very proud of his documentary, and looked so sad when I told him about this inconsiderate theater-goer making things difficult for everyone.

Lily Pad Library will be fixed in no time, so don't worry, local library goers.

I am already on my way to clean the books (there are orange juice marks on every fifth book), and I wanna thank whoever alerted me to this prob-squqisuqisusiqusiqd-lem. Sorry, I just turned into a giant squid. So, I'm on my way to clean them with my orang-squsquuqsd-e juice atomizer. You're welcome.

Oops, Sorry about the giant mess, and I assure you, it's not a Bigfoot.

I noticed some people talking about the clearing with chopped trees and, um, chickens, and I'm really sorry. I was just trying to build a homemade gas pressurizer, and it kinda reversed when I added the silicon trioxide, which in hindsight was a mistake. Lemme ask my mom if she thinks carbon silicate would be a better fit

Anybody wanna come over and watch reruns of ‘How to Seduce the Neighbour’s Wife’?

I think it’s British, or at least, it’s from a place where everybody doesn’t sound like me (not including dogs for obvious reasons).

Is there some window planter law?

Hey guys, Cynthia again.

Quick update about my life and what's been going on with me; I went on a date with someonenfor the first time since moving back home here, I got my boating license, and oh! I helped a bigfoot hunter maybe catch pictures of the elusive creature. I dunno. I haven't heard from Rudiger let me know. Kinda worried about the guy.

Anyway, on to my actual question; has anyone had trouble with growing small window plants lately? I know that's a weird question, and I'm probably phrasing it oddly, but I don't know how else to word the question.

So some background, I bought a windowsill planter box to grow some clover and mint cus I heard they're safe for ducks, but then less than a week after putting it all together and sowing the after germinating them in paper towels and stuff, SOMEONE EMPTIED OUT THE WHOLE PLANTER AND TOOK ALL THE DIRT WITH THEM. that's it. Just the dirt and seeds. It was really confusing. Like who would do that in the middle of the night from a window box on the seventh story of an apartment building. I assumed it was crows or something. I dunno, maybe a pelican scooped up all the dirt and flew off with it or something. The planter box was still there, the little painted shells I decorated it with are still there. I just assumed it was an animal of some sort, so I installed some REALLY nice garden gnomes; mosiced glass and ceramic and really cute lederhosen. I loved those things. I thought they'd keep whatever wrecked it away.

I was wrong, I was really really wrong. the morning after I put them in the planters, they were gone and so was all the dirt again. a note was left in the bottom of the planter that said "this is beanboy turf; legumes only or else."

Anyone know what's going on? Anyone else dealt with this before? Im lost here. I could use any lead you guys got.

Who keeps leaving one perfectly peeled orange at the library bus stop?

This is the third Tuesday in a row. No container, no napkin, just an orange sitting on the bench.
I moved it out of the sun today, but now I’m worried I interrupted something. If this is part of a club, a very slow picnic, or somebody’s weekly experiment, please tell me before next Tuesday.
It’s currently in the blue lost-and-found bowl at the library.

Huge discount on clocks, bug zappers and paint cans!

After a terrible and expensive Amazon blunder, I have a bunch of junk that I don't know where to put. I mean, the attic is still filled with rats, and I can't put these on the bookstore so...

We're having a sale! If you want dozens of orange clocks, Dorian Gray decor paints and "Lord" fly zappers, come check it out.

Also, we STILL have a lot of "The Great Gatsby" copies since the school doesn't use these anymore. They're at half price.

Clearing my head

Does anyone want to go to a meditation retreat with me? I found one at the naturist colony up in Arlington. It costs almost just as much for one person over two so the cost is on me.

To my neighbour with the dog (you know who you are) can you try and get it to start barking at stupid o'clock at night?

I've recently moved house, and my old neighbour had this dog that wouldn't shut up with it's barking at all hours of the night. It used to keep me up all night, but I eventually got used to it.

Now I've moved, the new neighbour has this lovely dog that is good as gold. IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY! I'M LYING AWAKE IN THE DEAFENING SILENCE AND IT'S AFFECTING MY SKETCHES!

Please, I beg you, get a cat for it to howl at or something!!!
