Adventures in Wildlife Rehabilitation: Part 1 of (hopefully) Several

I started my festivid assignment, *finally*. I'm feeling good about it, the idea is clear and it the vid pleases me, so can't complain on that front.

Speaking of fronts, that paragraph is a total front for the true purpose of this post: We have a sick fox in our garden.

Late this morning Ian yelled "Amy look out the back window!"

This is code for "there is a feathery or fuzzy thing in the garden which is by its very nature relevant to your interests"

It's usually our resident green woodpecker, but today it was...a little fox.

A very sick little fox. It's always weird to see a fox strolling around in broad daylight, nevermind laying down in full view to scratch and bite at itself for 20 mins.

Public Service Announcement: HAETSNAKE

PUBLIC: BE WARNED!

Haetsnake is the enemy of progress. He will visit you and then those things that you were going to get done will not get done.

They will not get done *at all*.

Not that gaming blog, or that vid, or that other vid, or making completed vid available on a streaming service, or that NANOWRIMO or finishing any of those shows yet or designing your website or reorganizing your kitchen/livingroom/bedroom/office or finishing any of those LJ posts since August or making/replying to comments or ever posting pictures to Facebook *ever*


Haetsnake is unhelpful, and though avoidable he will still manage to find you, eventually.

He is drawn to some more than others...

PROCRASTINATORS:

( RECOGNIZE THE SERPENTINE MENACE )

BE WARY OF HIS DULCET HISS, FOR IT SINGS UPON THAT TONGUE WHICH FLICKS A THOUSAND LIES FOR EACH PASSING BREATH.

...the lies are mostly about how playing Angry Birds is much better than ever doing constructive things with you time, especially things which you allegedly enjoy and want to do.

(Except I'll have 3 stars in every level soon, and then when that's done I'll go on and fix everything that is wrong with my life. Right, haetsnake?)

PLEASE NOTE: Though haetsnake not directly related to Bad Decision Dinosaur, they have almost certainly attended the same dinner party. Possibly twice.
