The Magic Office Mate Lady Giveth, and the Magic Office Mate Lady Taketh Away
For reasons I won't go into here, I had occasion to be in my office around 6 this morning. It was still dark out, and when I looked out my office window, there were 5 deer, one a baby, grazing in the strip of grass between the building and the road. (The large, heavily-trafficked-during-daylight-hours road.) I watched them walk carefully around and bend their necks at the shoulders to eat the grass.
I had to leave, though, so when I got downstairs, instead of heading for my car in the opposite direction, I snuck around the corner of the building to see if they were still there. I saw one, still grazing to my right. Then, about to leave, I looked up behind a big cluster of bushes, and there three were, heads held high and silhouetted against the lights from the stadium next door. They were looking at me. I looked at them. I told them to be careful.
