Trilobite

My dorm is right downtown and pretty cheap so there are always lots of travellers staying there. Today I was walking down the front steps and passed through a crowd of Spanish (or maybe Portuguese) teenagers with digital cameras taking movies of a black squirrel eating a peach. Three of them were holding up their cameras and walking very carefully towards him, and all the rest were hanging back looking nervous and curious. I thought it made a funny scene. It made me think of the vorpal rabbit from The Holy Grail.

I miss our little squirrel. I hope he’s doing okay. Celine took Thesia, Sheera, and Fizi to see him the other day and thought they saw him from a distance, but he didn’t come out to visit.
