Okay, this is a true story, I'm totally serious.
I can't exactly remember how old I was or what the occassion it was. I have a hunch that it was my birthday or something. Anyway my dad took me to the San Diego Zoo. I love that zoo. Well anyway we had a good time all morning but then lunch time rolled around and like any kid at my young age, I began complaining that I was hungry. I distinctly remember my father grumblign about the prices. He still does that...grumbling, I mean.
So we stopped adn got are very expensiver lunch, I got a cheeseburger and my dad got this GARGANTUAN burger. We were sitting down, my dad had only taken one bit of his burger when he noticed we didn't have napkins. I think he swore (he was still in a bad mood about the prices, you see) and he told me, i remember this very well, he was so emphatically, "Watch My Burger." He commanded me emphatically.
Well, there were a lot of seagulls around. Anyone that has visited the zoo knows that, my dad went to get napkins and I stayed where I was adn ate my delicious burger. A second later a full grown seagull landed on the table across from me, right over my father's burger. IT looked at me, turnign its head to the side.
I remember distinctly that I had my burger in hand and leaned back away from the bird on the table, promptly forgetting my dad's instructions. Wth that this REGULAR sized seagull picked up the WHOLE burger adn flew off with it!
Naturally, my dad was pissed.
He didn't want to get another burger because of teh prices, he told me later that he had been real hungry too.
Is there a lesson to this story?
No, not really, it was just hella funny. blaugh

Bluesteel's Deep Well
Well this is the first journal I started. I called it my Deep Well because a well can be used metaphorically to describe deep thinking. Anyway, I love writing stories, and my thoughts are usually amusing and frank, at least that's what poeple tell
