Last night while brushing my teeth, I looked over and saw a slug beneath my bathroom window. A slug!! I've been telling this story to people, and they seemed to find it as odd as I did.
It was just there on a corner, slugging around with its two antennaes. So I got a paper towel from the kitchen and decided to flush it down then toilet. But then I saw it sluggin around in my paper towel, still alive, and I knew I couldn't do it. (Plus it was thick and fatty, half the size of my pinky!) So I took the slug outside, and left it on my doorstep, and watched it slowly slug away.
So long Bernard, may you never slug back again.

A couple weeks ago, while driving to work, I was turning right when I saw this guy in his car stopped at a light. Nothing unusual, right? Until he pulled out his NOODLES! The dude was eating noodles in his car! Now, I understand that with LA traffic, many people like to multitask in the car: have meetings on their cell phones, watch their DVDs, sing along with their music, and on many occasions, eat. All that I understand, but am not a big fan of. In fact, I am guilty of eating many meals in my car. But never have I had the audacity to eat NOODLES! That's crazy! But maybe I'm just not crazy enough. I can barely eat burritos in my car, and those things are hand held. Everything's wrapped up for you all nice and easy and I still have trouble with it.
But this guy had the chopsticks (or fork) and a bowl of noodles. Now that's multitasking. Noodles involve soup...often hot soup. Noodles involve two hands: one holding the bowl, one holding the utensil. This guy was eating noodles.
What's even more odd is that it was only 9am in the morning! Not that I'm dissing noodles for breakfast. I'm sure noodles are good at any time of day, just like breakfast is good for dinner. But the combination of eating noodles at 9 in the morning, in his CAR no less, just made the whole thing quite an unusual sight.
Mr Noodle Man, if you read this...HOLLA BACK.
