WAY TOO LONG,

it's been.

Anyways, I am going to try to update more--my new job is FANTASTIC, but does sufficiently tire me out and make me not want to get on the computer. Which I count as a positive.

Today, I had a day of adventures. First off, I almost hit a buck in my car this morning. I have a little two-door Ford Escort and have never even seen a deer whilst in my car. That is, until 7:15 this morning, on my way into work.

The four-pointer stopped in the road, responding to the presence of my car with a couple of sturdy steps towards me. He appeared to be entranced by my appearance--I felt as though he was looking right through my windshield and into my eyes. My car creeped close and right as I'm about to touch him, he bounds off up the side of an extremely steep cliff. I had the shakes, but he is unscathed.


Later, I'm about to clock off from work and have a half hour to kill, so I go walking along the riverbank. And what do I startle in the underbrush but a four-point buck. I have no way to prove it, but it feels like the same one. Maybe I've a nature-stalker?

Whatever the case, in seeing the being bound away, I was brought to speechlessness by the grace.
Nature sure is gorgeous.
