Sunday was fun day for me. Well basically, pretty much everyday is. Ever since moving from Pacific Grove to the boonies last year, I am now back living near the beach. On the weekends that is where I can be found. Hell, even during the week, I am on the shore watching the sun set over the water.
I meandered over to Surf City to enjoy the warm sunny day. I travel lightly when I hang out on the sand. A beach chair, a small bag with snacks, a towel and a sheet. I positioned my chair and put the bag down next to it. I shouldn't have done this and I do know better, but I walked towards the water forgetting about the seagulls. As soon as I was about 20 feet away, the seagulls pilfered the small tater chip bag out of my sack! Little thieves! I ran up, grabbed it from them just as one of them punctured a hole in it. They were still edible, so I put them underneath the towel.
The gulls didn't go away, they just stood around me waiting to be fed. Well screw them! Steal from me will you? So, I decided to get a giggle. As I pulled out the bag, they came closer and closer. I opened it...and then closer. I put a chip in my mouth and said "mmmmm, yummy......mmmmmm....yummy" As I reached into the bag, they got closer. I pulled out another chip and pretended to throw it.....and they jumped for it. I laughed....lol. Then I got another chip and started to lick it like Homer Simpson licks a donut........aahahaha. I was even making slurping sounds. I was cracking up laughing!
Who says I don't know how to entertain myself?
I am really shocked that those gulls didn't pull a Tippi Hedren on me.....hahaha. I would have deserved it.
The gulls trying to steal my chips reminded me of one of my favorite You Tube Videos. Sam the Seagull. I wonder if any of you remember him? Look him up.
So at the end of the day, I was in heaven.
As the sun decided to bid me farewell, I blew it a kiss and watched a lone surfer trying to catch the last wave for the day. Then it was back home to watch the end of the Packers/Vikings Game.
Life is good to me. I am so blessed.
