Imaginary bird, Berkeley, CA.
A tiny
nuthatch hopped around our front
porch and clung to the wisteria
vines for a few minutes this afternoon.
She wished it would hop in our house
through the open door, and become our
pet. I convinced her it was just as
good for the wee thing to ...

the game, I don't make her do that

popcorn comes, I like it. It’s
