Things you won't see on the Discovery Channel

True fact: I like watching squirrels eat. I like the way they sit up, I like their little paws, I like their big bushy tails, I just like 'em.

This morning, D noticed a pack of squirrels out back and tossed them a few stale ice cream cones we'd had on top of our fridge.

Friends and neighbors, squirrels + irregularly-shaped food they can barely hold = AWESOME

Have you ever watched a squirrel try to climb a tree while holding an entire cone sideways in his mouth? No? You need to. You really need to.

I have this strange urge now to go out looking for oddly-shaped, cumbersome food. For the squirrels. For the Lols. I actually caught myself thinking this afternoon, "Man, I can't wait for the River Festival so I can buy some cotton candy to bring home for the squirrels". This could get bad.

Now I'm thinking the same thing... Waffle bowls? Taco salad shells? Taco shells? For some reason the idea of watching squirrels munch strangely shaped cereal (like Honecombs) just amuses me too.
