Lornami's Week

Gahhh...
So. Monday I worked an Art Show from the Graduating Senior Studio. It was pretty fun being there even if I was confined to giving out drinks, but tiring.
Tuesday I was making a Sketchbook that was due Wednesday.
Wednesday I was getting ready for the AP English test.
Thursday I took the AP Test and went to sleep at frikin 8:30 PM.
Today?
I got attacked by a squirrel.

Well, now that I look at it was just a meeting of confused things. That squirrel goes by the name of Chuck and is my Dad's pet. We've been keeping him outside for awhile and he never went without human attention. When I came home I was asking out Neighbor about where my dad was, and he went somewhere and left Chuck outside. I wasn't sure it was Chuck because he said he saw other squirrels the same size as him.
I put my hand out for him and he got on, but I don't know if squirrels do that or not, and he made a weird sound and seemed really jumpy. I pulled my hand away and he bit.
He climbed up on my and I yanked him off and threw him away from me, cause I was scared! Got alot of nasty claw marks with that.

After talking to my Dad, it was him still being skidish because he was without people for so long and looking for food and a way to get back inside into my parent's room where he lives. My sudden movement scared him and his reaction is to bite. He climbed back onto me because he wanted to go inside or apologize. At this point I was thinking it wasn't Chuck so I didn't want some random squirrel on me!
Looked outside later and he's got his belly on a tree limb and looking at all the people but not moving about. Like a dog with his tail in between it's legs. Like my dad said he knows that he did something wrong and I freaked him out by throwing him as much as he did biting me. I don't think I hurt him like he did me but my neighbor did say he was winded.

@[email protected] We both freaked out. Animals are alot like us, but they can do alot more damage when the get scared (well, we can do loads of damage but it's the instant weapons on them that hurt) so that's why it's not really okay for us to live so close sometimes...

    lol you got owned by a squirrel! I've never been that close to an animal yet, but I love certain animals like bunnies and Squirrels too. How was your AP test going? And lol, I'm sure sleeping at 8:30 pm is a little bit way too early for you. Can't wait for the next journal!
