We had our first thunder storm last week. That means it's Skinwalker season again. ::shudder::

I haven't, personally. I have had a skunk pounce around me while I laid out on a summer night once, though. He was friggin ADORABLE! I didn't know they actually walked like they were prancing. But still, despite his cuteness, I sloooowly eased my way back into the house, throwing cheese crackers as I went lol. Good thing I did too because he sprayed something about 20 minutes after I'd come in. Hmm. Come to think of it...lol....I bet he was prancing that little dance they do right before they spray you....ya I bet he was planning on spraying me...he may have even tried and missed or something lol. Ahhh and this whole time I thought that was such a cute walk....he just wanted me for my crackers...

There are three owls who work our neighborhood. i call them the Bachelors. They're always telling "knock, knock" jokes to each other. I've never seen them, but when one settles into the big conifer behind my bedroom window, it's unsettling. Tell me, what kind of owl gives the classic "hoohoo, hoo" sound? Those are these. cn

I swear up until this very moment I thought that skunk was so damn cute lmao. I cannot get over this. I think...I think he planned this whole thing! He got me to lay out my crackers! And he warned me he was going to spray by prancing about! And then when I backed off he sprayed so i'd stay away from HIS new crackers! What a shit! That is so cute....

That's a skunk's way of saying, "don't fuck with me or you'll be sorry." LOL

Amen to that, brother. Amen. There are nights that I won't step foot outside. You just get this vibe. The dogs will curl around your feet and won't budge. That's usually my cue to shut the curtains, lock the windows and pray for dawn.

Spotted skunks do this cute handstand when they're snicking the lever from safe to Fire. cn
And at last, I've snagged a proper pairing of post to celestial delight. NGC 7331 is called the "Little Andromeda" Galaxy. It's in Pegasus.

Sounds like Great Horned Owls. They're pretty common across the U.S.

I used an Alien image because last year Carne regaled us with skinwalker tales. By the sound of it they make the bad things in European mythology look like complete pussies. cn

Skinwalkers are associated with lightning. They go dormant during the winter and become active after it warms up and we start getting thunderstorms. I'm not going to go into detail because it's nighttime and they scare the living shit out of me.
addendum: I know most of you think I'm batshit crazy when I talk about this but I assure you, they are very real. And I hate that I know that.

I don't think you're batshit crazy at all, Carne. In fact I often believe people of different religions see the same things and name them differently. But they are out there, whatever they are.

I went to a job interview today and i'm super sad about it lol. It went so well and I liked the people a lot but I was really hoping to relocate. A job I really want opened up and it would be awesome nonprofit experience under my belt, which is really what I want to do long-term (nonprofit, that is, not necessarily this nonprofit.) I don't necessarily have that job though. But I do want to live in the area that the nonprofit is for at least 5 years or so. Meh.
