God Bless the Almighty Day Job
or working on my current and/or next project (cuz it’s gonna be fuckin’ great)…but…
I’m one of the lucky ones on my block who has a job, so by God, I’m there.
At least my kitty is home and on the mend and my dog and I got out for a hike early this morning on muddy trails loaded with deer tracks. Big deer, little deer, medium deer. Yesterday I watched the mating ritual of two gorgeous, huge red-tailed hawks.
The female, at least I assume it was the female, landed on one of the highest branches of a tall, bare oak tree. The male followed with a low, raspy cry. As I watched, he handed her something that got her all excited. She kept bobbing her head and adjusting it in her claws, poking at it, plucking at it, while he stood on a branch facing her looking like he was all that. Since my dog and I were the only other large creatures around, I stood and watched for about twenty minutes without interruption. The female would spread her wings and flutter them gently, bob her head up and down. She repeatedly touched the male with her wing tips. It was so dang sweet. Now that’s love. Hope they build a nice big nest and raise a couple of beautiful chicks.
So…working the next four days. My Everything comes out tomorrow - hope I have time to celebrate, but I doubt it…maybe Monday. See ya! Julia
