A thing and a thing

I've decided to use subject lines as much as possible, but I suck at them. Kind of like I suck at coming up with titles.

Thing 1: This morning I observed a young woman with words printed across her butt. Now, aside from my reaction of, "Isn't that trend over? That's so 1995," I consciously noticed something that had been poking at my backbrain for some while. Words across one's ass do not make the ass look good. They act in the same way camouflage does: they break the smooth line of the shape.

It was a relief to finally realize why that look is so ugly to me. All those women look like they have deformed asses!

Thing 2: A dove has built a nest right outside my bedroom window, under the air conditioner.

Now, normally I am happy to share the planet with its non-human inhabitants, but that's just a little too proximate. Its rustling attracted the focused attention of the cat, who I feared would dive through the flexible expandy side of the a/c. I fear it my harbor smaller critters who may work their way into my bedroom. Its COOING woke me up every morning much earlier than I want to be woken.

And, most of all, the odds are good that it has laid eggs. Morning cheeping and piles of baby-bird dung are not something I look forward to. So I called the management office this morning, and they will have the nest removed. I feel kind of bad, as this means the death of any eggs in there.
