It goes, like murky bird or buccaneer






"The highways jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight but there's no place left to hide
Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl, I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us, baby, we were born to run"

I want to be an ornithologist. I just don't want to go to school for it.
I want to draw birds and watch them fly around and I have wanted an African Grey since I read this book called Harry's Mad by Dick King-Smith back in grade school. I suppose I've always been a bit of a bird enthusiast. Since I remember laying on the grass in the back garden watching robins and crows and finches. Now I watch scrub jays, flickers, crows, and robins around the neighborhood. I am all set to buy a bird feeder and shepherd's hook, but those are awkward on the bus. And a bird bath and some houses and suet feeders... I want to watch them all day. Not an obsession, mind, but I find them both beautiful and calming.

Everything's gonna be alright.

Love,
Nat.
