Yesterday evening during the dogwalk (Toby, btw, is walking totally normally and acting absolutely fine) we discovered that we now have CHICKENS living one street down from us! Three of them! Friendly, amber-colored with white underfeathers, clucking CHICKENS! We watched as the owner (who looks like a 22-year old Jet Li in glasses, btw) fed the friendliest one little bits of celery.

It was AWESOME.

For the next hour or so as we cleaned the kitchen I'd just randomly blurt "Chickens!" as I remembered seeing them.

Then a neighbor and her boyfriend came over and we all hung out, cooked some veggie burgers, chatted about our families and watched 'Dr. Horrible'.

I keep liking this neighborhood more and more.
