When I came home from work on Thursday night, there was an injured sparrow in front of my door.  It would not fly away when I got close to it.  I felt really bad and asked Brandi if we should call animal control (I really think that was a bit extreme--it was a sparrow and it was 1 AM--the animal control people would not care).  We both looked at it and thought it was just going to die and decided to let it die alone.  So....it flipped over on its back and died.  Now we have a dead sparrow in front of our door--I wonder if it will stay lying there like our newspapers.  No...I will bury it tomorrow.  I have a feeling it is a really bad omen though!  I mean--A bird dying on your doorstep??  That is pretty extreme.  I have been researching omens online this evening and it says that birds are usually bad luck. I also found this out :

"It is said that the sparrow was at the crucifixion of Jesus and it encouraged the Romans to torture Jesus as it kept shouting he is alive he is alive, its this reason today when you see a sparrow it will walk away rather than fly as it prefers to stay and see what's going to happen. The sparrow is a symbol of the Gods and bad luck to kill one"

Well...it is bad luck to kill one...but we didn't...it just died.  Hmmm....anyway...I have been having weird dreams about work and life and such.  Last night I had a dream that Tim was leaving to go somewhere and I got him a "goodbye" card and flowers, but then we were in this old house in New Jersey with Brandi.  Then Brandi and Tim starting asking me history trivia questions about the old house and the people who lived in the house.  I didn't know the answers and they were snickering at me.  Then Tim had to leave and I walked him to the door and then I said, "Oh!  I forgot the card!" and ran back to get his stuff.  When I went back to the door I asked Brandi, "Where's Tim?" and she said "Oh...he already left".  It was pretty weird. 

I talked to Mimi and Devon on a conference call tonight.  We are all gonna try to plan a get-together sometime--I haven't seen them in over a year!! Crazy.  Maybe one day we will all three live together (like the Golden Girls, except younger!).  Ok...good night!
