Squirrely Fantasy

Meet Squiggly.


The office squirrel.


She comes to say hi a few times a day.  She'll perch herself on the ledges of our windows and watch us for a few minutes as if she is genuinely interested in the daily opperations of our office.

But really, she just wants food.


And my co-worker, Sharon, obliges. 


Which is probably why we now see Squiggly's bolder, yet-to-be-named friend.



Who may or may not find her way into the office some day.


In the very near future.

But I don't mind.  I've wanted my own little pet squirrel for as long as I can remember.


I would name her Roxanne, but call her Roxy.  Because then I would have an excuse to sing two of my favorite sing-along songs.

I love to make noise, in general.

But not loud noises.

...

Just look at those a-dor-able rodent eyes.  And don't even get me started on animals with opposible thumbs.

I guess if someone were to, perhaps, let Squiggs and her friend in, by complete accident of course, I just might have to, out of the goodness of my heart, let them curl up in my snack drawer to nap in between cuddle sessions.

So cute! In high school we had a hurricane kill a mother squirrel and we got to raise the two babies. It was just a great experience! They were so sweet. Enjoy your visitors!
