Haircuts for bears
Written by hootenannie on April 11th, 2012Every morning, I pull up CNN.com to read about current events. As a person with no TV who despises talk radio, it’s the only window I have to the outside world.
This morning, rather than reading about politics (so long, Santorum) or George Zimmerman (so long, lawyers), I opted to click on this link:
“Texter looks up, sees 400-pound bear”
I am so glad that this moment was captured on film.
Speaking of bears, I mentioned that Toad got her summer haircut. She went from looking like this:

to this:

So long, bear. Hello, 3-legged baby cow with a feather extension behind her ear.
(I promise, she is cuter and less pathetic than this picture makes her out to be.)
(But only a little.)
And with that, I’ll take my leave. I’m pretty sure I’m going to spend the entire day thinking about:
1) paying my estimated quarterly taxes,
2) how we still haven’t found a house to move into, and
3) the fact that in just 8 days, HUNTER IS COMING TO VISIT – which means that once again, this moment will be made possible:

I cannot wait.

toad looks like a different creature!! i’m sure when she smiles and wags her tail, she looks the exact same, though.
and ps, you all need to find a house so that i can come visit it. and you.

That bear was in my hometown, a few blocks from my parent’s house! I’m proud that La Crescenta is now on the map.
See you in 2 months!
