dear diary,

[insert pause]

I JUST SAW A MOTHERFUCKING WILD ASS TURKEY RUNNING IN MY YARD!

A

WILD

ASS

TURKEY.

NOT of the whiskey kind, but a legit honest to god motherfucking ginormous turkey.

only. in. iowa.

not sure what the obsession with my yard is this week, but let me tell you what a pleasure it was to be rubbing one out in front of my open window and see two kids with bikes walk right by it.

i live in the middle of nowhere on 3 acres of forest land. i woke up today because i heard voices. turns out like 6 11 year olds have been playing in the woods [part of this house] so i had to put a damn robe out and ask them to play somewhere else.

*************************************************

"hey guys."

[they start to run when they see me coming.]

"don't run away. it's cool."

"oh. hey."

"you guys can't play in my yard. i know it's bitchin, but it's mine."

[one of them points to the firepit area by the traintracks]

"can we play there?"

"no."

[one points to the lilac bushes]

"can we play there?"

"no."

******************************************

so they've been warned. if they show up again, i'm running out of the house naked and weilding a butcher knife. because wtf, i'm allowed to do that.
