I put colored lights in my bathroom, worked sorting donations at the food warehouse, and bought a book about the Red Army Faction. I also won the Virgin Lottery (yes, I’m aware it’s a scam.) ---

Thanks **ladybug**! It was just a little local thing for fun and to make the last dance of the summer special (no AC + poor ventilation + lots of dancers = one hot, stuffy hall, so they’re shutting down for a few weeks). Still, I really didn’t expect to make the final, so it was pretty cool. ---

I saw a DEER! in New Jersey! I was walking down the railroad tracks minding my own business and suddenly six feet in front of me was a half grown deer. We looked at each other for a couple of minutes. I was absolutely stunned. While I have seen the occasional skunk, rabbit, raccoon and possum, and I once saw three white egrets in a drainage ditch (how they got in the drainage ditch I’ll never know), I have never seen a deer in my parts until yesterday. ---
