Take a gander at this

I'd really hate for this to become one of those blogs that focuses solely on geese, but they've been on my mind a lot lately.  I've moved near a river and walk to work through a park, and this is the kind of thing I get to enjoy.



It's rare that I see these little versions of geese.  I normally see adults and get hissed at by them.  It's scary!  It gives me goose bumps.  Ha ha!  Goose bumps.  ===> Goose, the exact type of waterfowl this whole post is about! <=== bumps.

Anyway, I'm out.

Interesting fact: those smaller geese are actually "babies," also known as "goslings." Not to to be confused with my boyfriend, Ryan Gosling, who is also cute and fuzzy.

Dear Annette,

By mentioning Ryan Gosling, you've likely increased my readership by at least two times. So thank you for that. For those new readers: yes, those yellow birds are Ryan Goslings. Shortly after shutting off the camera, they made out with a gaggle of Rachel McAdamses. It was great until the latter set of birds developed Alzheimers disease.

I'm not sure why I began this new paragraph. Nothing else to say!

Sincerely,
Mike

Reminds me of the day me and the kids dressed up as Geese and goslings and waited on the path that you normally walk to work on. We pretended to peck at food in the grass and watched you point your phone at us. It was weird and yet very motivating.

Dear Codezy_PT,

That explains why Sarah rolled up in a car, picked up the goose and goslings, and sped away.

Kind regards,
Mike

I wonder if you get an email for every comment. If so, this is the perfect place to request a score board. I would like to see a little side widget like the stackoverflow one but instead shows the score between you and bitumen. Like right now its around this right?

You won't know that until baby is here and ready to eat. If you think you'd like to use a certain brand or type of bottle, buy one or two at first and see how your baby responds. You can always buy more bottles later on, or try out new brands if baby isn't happy with your initial choices.

Mike said...

By 'baby' do you mean 'the baby' (i.e. my baby)? Or are you referring to 'Baby' from Dirty Dancing?

Codezy_PT said...

They were clearly referring to this Baby: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyTNPPrdyjI

I disagree with the poster, if Baby is not happy with your initial choices, baby is likely to react extremely violently and you my be killed. Best to pick the correct brand of bottle first.

I'm disappointed in the administrator of this blog for not reprimanding "independent midwives" for suggest that it is alright to eat babies.

This blog should be renamed "Baby wants a blog post every now and again"
