I was finally free to laze around at home and catch up to the Gladiator games, and maybe start part 2 of my Secret Enzlan Errands story.
BUT! But... I remembered I had to go to the bank to complete a direct deposit form for my new job with the Thunder Gods. Eeesh, I also had to update my student status before the end of the year, and do a lot of other apprentice things today.
I got dressed and bundled up in my Frost-prevention gear. The Frost Giants were expected to make an appearance some time this afternoon, so there was no way I was going out in just a jacket with no Frost-prevention gear.
Just as I closed the front door and turned to face my driveway, I heard a low growl followed by a sharp bark.
The flock of sparrows surrounding my neighbour's bird feeder took off as a grey squirrel charged at them and lowered onto his haunches. He jumped onto the bird feeder and glowered at the sparrows, who retreated to a nearby hedge.
Squirrels. Gotta watch out for them. Before you know it, they'll eat all the food and make you pay for it.
