I was standing in a long ass line yesterday at the Memorial Union Post Office in between classes, and I was getting impatient because time was running out and my next class was a little bit of a walk away. All of a sudden somebody in a big red bird costume went strolling by us down the hall just acting casual as could be, and nobody in my line even did a double take. He was the school mascot afterall (a cardinal named Cy with a ginormous beak and teeth). I've seen Cy around at events and things, but I'm not used to him/her just popping up while I'm running my daily errands. It's like being in an alternate universe or something. And yes, that was the most exciting thing that has happened to me in three whole days. I filed my FAFSA and mailed off my taxes, but come on...it's more fun to write about people in bird costumes.

I was giving blood in the MU once and Cy came over and held my other hand. I said, "Awww, thanks Cy." He nodded and then bent down to give me a hug. I patted his back with my free hand and said thanks.

Then Cy climbed up onto the little cot I was laying on and was on top of me. It was at this point where a nurse jumped in to stop him.

Cy kind of creeps me out now. =)

You were almost molested by our mascot?

Yes. Which prompted a short story for a creative writing class titled "Sui-Cy-de" where all of the girls who date a guy (who plays Cy) end up "killing themselves" where at the end, he's the one killing them.

Oh, you should post that story! It sounds awesome.

No, really! I think it sounds like a good story idea.

TC (The Cat) is often around in the Union here for events and stuff. I have him (and Cy!) as friends on Facebook, ha ha.

Hi there.... [livejournal.com profile] ooshiny suggested I check out your journal due to our common interest of meteorology. Just leaving a comment letting you know I added you so you don't think I'm a stalker!

Just based on your user info you look like someone that I have a lot in common with. :)
