Bird, Visit and Spider

Today I was sitting at my desk in my office and I started to hear scratching noises in the ceiling. I walked over to one of those big flourescent lights and took a look up. There was a tiny bird perched on one of the light tubes and it kept flapping around trying to get out. I gave it a nudge and it managed to free itself. It took off tearing around the inside of the building as my coworkers ducked for cover. In the end I managed to usher it through an open window. It was quite a cute little bird so I’m glad it managed to get back outside.

Ryan came over this evening and he gave Steph and I a nice set of teacups his ex girlfriend picked out for us in Japan when they were still together. He meant to give it to us over a year ago but he kept forgetting. Anyway, they are very nice. She picked well. He also gave me one of his jackets which was too big for him. It is a really nice jacket..very comfortable and it looks nice too.

There was a spider on the loose for the last couple of nights and Truffle (one of our cats) has been diligently hunting it tonight. It is an intelligent spider and uses the terrain to its advantage but the huntress shall have it in the end.

Anyway it has a been a pretty good day. I shall post more tomorrow, as it is now time for bed!

    Haha…well unfortunately I’m not a bird expert and I’m pretty bad at identifying individual kinds of anything…planes, trains, cars, plants/trees, most kinds of animals, etc. but I’ve taken a look at some pictures online and I think it was some kind of sparrow. It was quite animated, though…so it was hard to get a good look.
