In Shock and Awe...

I swear there's never a dull moment around here....

The trees outside my window are full of berries, and it seems that said berries have fermented over the winter. For the past couple days birds have been eating them and getting drunk, resulting in complete loss of coordination. They then fly into our windows, killing themselves. It's extremely disturbing to hear them smacking against the glass, not to mention the chunks of feathers / blood on windows, and the multiple bird carcasses covering the front steps and lawn. At one count yesterday we had 9 dead birds lying in various locations in front of the building (major props to the security guard who cleaned them up). There seems to be no end in sight, since the trees are still full of the demon berries. If only there was some way to enforce a form of prohibition....

You know those days where everything goes wrong?


Well, today was one of those days.

Enough said.
