For the past two mornings around 7am I get woken up with a *peck peck peck* on the house. I'm house sitting for my dad for a couple more days, and he never warned me about nature's alarm clock. Yesterday I walked outside, and the pecking stopped. This morning I ran around the house trying to scare it away, at 7am, in my pjs. It flew onto my neighbor's roof, and then right back to our house ... when my brother woke up all I could mutter was ... "what's that bird's name that, you know, pecks at wood?" He smiled that dorky, you're a moron smile that only 14 yr-old boys can master and said, "You mean, a woodpecker?" "YES! I hate them with a passion, seriously, go find a tree!" Then I proceeded to make waffles. Tomorrow morning I'm throwing stones. To top it off, while jump roping today ... my jump rope broke and the little pieces flew all over the driveway. I just stood their and stared for a couple minutes, wondering if that had really happened. Indeed, it had.
