There are squirrels everywhere here, so I have almost stopped noticing them. As I was walking into my building though, I found out I was oblivious to the true powers of the squirrel.
This squirrel was chilling on the wall. The side of it. He ran around the side of this brick wall like it were the ground. Branches? We don't need no stinking branches. Gravity is my bitch!
On top of that, it was the first time I heard one make a sound. Now, I expected this little squeaky voice, like in the cartoons. Apparently cartoons have led me astray. This squirrel was making freaking duck calls. And a variety of duck calls too. I was just waiting to see a flock of birds come and check it out.
You sure learn a lot in grad school.
