shor-t's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Back To Kensington I noticed that a magpie had picked up Zelda and took her away, which was incredibly distressing to me. It was pecking at her and hurt her, so I shooed it away. It attacked me and so I grabbed it by the neck and squeezed. The neck was really weird, like a bendy straw. The more I squeezed on it the more it stretched. Finally the bird died and I threw it on the ground. I wasn't happy because I like magpies but it isn't right for a magpie to attack a dog like that. I went walking, looking for Zelda. The first person I met told me that she was down the street. I found her in a yard so I put her with Milo and went to talk to the homeowners. They lived beside my house in Kensington, but it was kind of a combination of that place and the dream neighbourhood in Edmonton with the old lady. I told the homeowners that I used to own that house next door. The green paint was still visible so I thought maybe they hadn't torn it down after all. I went over and the neighbour said we could go in and look around. They built up the foundation quite a bit so you could stand in the basement. I saw some of my old tools there and one of Bronwen's things. One of the guys, who was actually a girl, came out dressed in odd looking scrubs. She was a surgeon and quite pleasant. Her husband came out and we went in his truck to get diesel. For some reason, there was a hose at the gas station spraying what I thought was diesel all over the ground. It was actually from the truck and was simply draining off the condensation in the tank. I started to get stressed because Zelda and Milo were still in that yard. I begged them to take us back, so they did. Only one hour had passed and they were still there. I thought maybe they would be frozen but they seemed pretty content. 8:01 a.m. - 2008-10-09 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
