Plays-With Squirrels

Reference video for the title of this post:


But the point of this post is to share my horrible squirrel experience today. Unlike Eric Matthews, I do not "play-with squirrels." Today though, a squirrel mistook me for a playmate, and not the playboy kind. I got off the metro and was walking home from work. Now when I walk home I walk through a park, this park happens to be infested with pigeons and squirrels. Usually everyone keeps to themselves and hangs out with their own kind. Not today. As I was walking down the path I noticed one particular squirrel staring at me. I happen to have a history with squirrels. In high school a squirrel ran across my toes at a park, a few days ago I got way too close for comfort, squirrels and I generally don't mix. So when I saw this guy staring me down I decided to return the challenge. I continued to walk and stare. He just kept sitting there staring at me. Then all of a sudden he went on the offensive and started scampering towards me. So naturally I chickened out and started briskly walking away... but it followed! so i broke out into a run and it finally stopped. And then I looked around and the homeless people were staring... I was being looked at like an insane person by homeless people. I have reached new lows. Just thought I would share this experience with you... and it gave me an excuse to post Boy Meets World on our blog
