Well this was supposed to be post of fic but *gah* so instead you get post of randomness of the humor and weird variety.

Driving home from work yesterday  I saw a guy on a motorcycle in full Scottish garb- the kilt, the sporran, everything.  I'm assuming he was on his way down to the Renaissance Festival, but the kilt was whipping around in the wind and I could only imagine the windburn he was going to get.

I thought it would be the weirdest thing I saw this week.  I was wrong.   Driving home from dropping daughter off this evening I stopped for a woman in a crosswalk walking what I thought was an ugly dog and carrying a teddy bear.  Nope.  She was carrying a little dog thing (not sure the breed but tiny and poofy and yippy) and walking a CAT.  A rather pissed off looking gray Persiany-looking cat on a green leash.

It was quite a weird thing to see.  Although, considering I got stuck working late because I spent 20 minutes explaining to someone one how 60 is MORE than 45 rather than less, maybe ending on a weird note is a good thing.

My biggest animal double take was when I bumped into a rabbit on a lead, closely followed by the Goth with ferrets on a 'dog' walk...

Man on bike in kilt *snorfle* but was it a proper plaid (or Great Kilt) or just a poor-man's kilt. I've 'helped' a couple of blokes get into their plaid (I stood there laughing at them rolling on the floor) and I'm still alive to tell the tale!

Oh and can I offer the muse chocolate? *proffers chocolate* may be sprinkled on donuts for the full effect *g*

oh my, walking rabbits and ferrets?

It looked like a proper kilt to me, but I'm not all that versed in the way of a kilt, despite going to a college with a strong scottish heritage (we had bagpipes!)

chocolate is always well loved *munches* thanks!

I suppose I should make it clear that I didn't see the rabbit-on-a-lead and the goth-with-ferret on the same day. There's a pic of the ferret here (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3249/2461603452_1fd6a4ee1a.jpg) as proof!
