Pranks and more pranks!

Okay, so didn't get as much done last weekend as I had hoped. Got a little bit done on the application and not much more on the costume... But Saturday morning I had to help some people who ran out of gas on my road, and as a reward I treated myself to a cupcake. There is a rival cupcakery to the one I went to with Mom and Dad, so I tried that one. Also delicious, as it turns out. Peanut butter & jelly and white chocolate raspberry are tasty delights.


Then headed to Yellow Springs to meet up with the gang. We hung out at Ye Olde Gulch and celebrated my friend Ingrid (left) taking the GRE and Stephanie (middle) being awesome.

Monday morning Amanda and I pranked Jason! We bought a computer mouse at Goodwill and set it in jello, then replaced the mouse in his office with this jello-y one. I could not keep a straight face. He was trying to figure out who did it, and told me to look at him. I told him that it was impossible for me to look at him at that time... Enough said.


Our friend Aly's boyfriend Nate stopped by. He showed us his whisker biscuit... on the bow... Who knew?



We did some exploring in the attic! Snakeskins abound. I say, make yourselves comfortable. Eat some mice, even...




This morning was rough at work. Amanda and I had to go on a delightful hike in beautiful weather... Sigh. Life is just hard sometimes. This is a tough job, but clearly someone has to do it... You're welcome. We were on a mission, checking geocaching sites, searching for scat & other animal signs for the winter exhibits, and looking for kingnut hickory nuts. Dee-light-fulllllll!





I decided I'd try to walk out on this log, because Amanda did it and it looked so easy... Bad choice. This is a picture of me actually frozen a few feet in. I couldn't even turn my head back to look while Amanda snapped the shot. She had to walk out there and come get me. Ridiculous.






Score! Found the shellbark hickory and all its tasty nutmeats!







This little bro was hippity hopping around. Amanda heard him scooting around in the crunchy leaves.







Aaaaaaaand while Amanda and I were out hiking around... Jason was busy getting me back for Monday's prank. I came into my office to find my keyboard broken in half! AHHH! He got me. Well played, sir.
Finally finished my costume tonight and can't wait to get corny in Springfield this weekend!
