I went to the Strybing Arboretum yesterday and a pack of damned squirrels followed me around.
They’re absolutely fearless. They come right up to your pant legs and start pulling on them. The beggars.
You can’t feed them (supposedly, there are signs warning against it) and I didn’t have any food on me at all, not even [...]

I despise squirrels.

Two years ago, I planted a bed of strawberries at the back of the yard. I have a very nice terraced far back yard, where I grow vegetables and wine grapes. It’s quite large. Before we moved here, that area was a jungle of obnoxious plants clinging to boulders that were bigger than my head. [...]

I try to get a few things done over the weekend, and when I wasn’t looking, Wanda’s waged War against the skinny website.
