A Most Peculiar Day

I woke up this morning with a headache. Maybe it was my sinuses acting up or maybe it was a tension headache because I knew I'd be busy today. Who knows. All I knew for sure is that I had a headache.

Went out to water my Corn (it's been dry around here lately) and noticed quite a few (almost half) of my corn crop were chomped in half and littering the ground in their broken state. A deer perhaps? No, no hoof prints in the soil....maybe a raccoon or a gang of them, possibly....do they run in packs/gangs? I don't know. It's still too early for the corn - there wasn't anything to eat - just alot of broken stalks as if they had been bent down in hopes of a few tender kernals of corn. What a waste! Nothing ate....just torn up. Perhaps it was just some sick raccoon joke played upon me, the unsuspecting human victim. All of that waste and destruction! What do those raccoons think they are??? HUMANS?!!! Is this some form of retribution? Am I over the edge?!! Okay, maybe just a bit.

Nature is getting strange anymore....has anyone else noticed the little game of "chicken" that birds seem to play? Have you ever been driving down the road and had one or two birds swoop down out of the sky heading directly for the grill of your car only to escape being smashed at the last possible moment by swooping back up towards the sky. It's not that they need to get that close to the front of our cars...they're just getting a cheap thrill by being a breath away from the grim reaper, at least that's what I think.

Back to my Corn....Maybe it wasn't a deer or a gang of raccoons that got my corn. Maybe it was a Chupacabra! Whatever happened to those things anyway? I can't believe they couldn't have figured out a way to cross the border into the US. We should have those little Goat Suckers everywhere by now, don't you think?

I saw research is being done to link the chupacabra with one of its possible distant relatives. They may have found a link between the chupacabra and sea monkeys. See for yourself on http://www.stauffercom.com/chupacabra.html

Some things (I've noticed) that people haven't reported a "Sighting" of lately:

Chupacabra

Nessie (of Loch Ness)

Elvis

Bin Laden (yeah, what's up with that? Not even a letter!)


Such a strange day...I went in to see the Doctor today because my blood pressure is high and the Doctor wanted to check it one more time before giving me medication. I had to get all of my work done in half the normal time so that I could leave work for an early lunch....I got delayed at work, and realizing I could be late, I went racing through the lunchtime traffic only to get caught up in a traffic jam close to the Dr.'s office. I found a parking space after going around the lot a couple of times and dashed in the door just a minute before time and noticed the office was PACKED with people and screaming children. All of this to see if my blood pressure is still high. I can't imagine why it was still up.

I'm tired and it's time to go to bed so that I can get up and do it all over again.
