I had so much that I intended to do today, but in the midst of such busyness and bluster, as Kahlil Gibran put it:
I meant to do my work today but,a brown bird sang in the apple tree..

Not much in the way of bird song here, but lots of other distractions….. Fortunately, a light work day today means I can get out and play! at least a little.

That’s good. As the saying goes, all work and no play . . .

Very lovely.
A squirrel ran in front of my car, so I was almost late for a meeting. And then I was distracted by how large the squirrel was, and what would happen if the squirrel launched itself at my car and bit through the hood, using super-squirrel strength.

I’m glad the squirrel was unharmed (and that your imaginative wondering reveals the writer in you). I recall one of the first things that I read on your blog, which impressed me, was that you brake for geese.

I still do. 🙂 Unfortunately their timing is horrendous. I was trying to mail a letter at the drive-up mailbox. Well, a flock of geese decided to cross the parking lot the moment I headed to the box. Had to wait for the flock to cross. 😦

Hmm, in your case it might have gone more like: ” but a black corvid sang on a power line…” Just sayin’.
