Quack quack quack

I was really sad the other day, because I hadn't seen the skunks in a few days, and I wondered if some filthy, rotten, bitch mighten have called Animal Control on them. I myslef called AC, per Amy's advice, who recommended I call Project Wildlife, who gave me two phone numbers, that were always either busy or just rang endlessly. Worse yet was the thought that someone might have taken matters into their own hands. Just before the skunks disappeared, I heard them screaming. I went to check it out, but they ran past me before I could see what was going on. They almost ran out into traffic, but stopped and ran under a parked car, instead. I'm not so blinded by my skunk love as to get in the way of two possibly rabid, possibly poisoned, and definitely panicked skunks, even if they had run into traffic, although now that I think of it, skunk smell does wash out, whereas dead skunks don't come back. But of course, then there's the whole issue of "maybe it's a kindess", if they die swiftly, as opposed to the contstant struggle that is living in the natural world. Bah. We'll be glad they didn't, so that I am not forced to ponder such things. The point of all this is that I was really, really worried that they might have been poisoned/killed, but smelled skunk on the air this morning, so I have hope that they're alright.
In other news, I auditioned for the Las Vegas show Jubilee! on Tuesday, since they were in town. I knew going into it that I wasn't going to get it; I'm not quite tall enough, not quite good enough, and I don't have the "professional dancer" body that one needs to perform in a thong, but I figured that I'm eventually going to audition for real, and this would be good experience. Also, a lot of other dance jobs no longer audition in San Diego, and I figured that the more dancers who showed up, the better chance that they would come back.
I had a BLAST, possibly because I wasn't worried about getting it or not, but mostly just because I loved the dancing. There was lots of smiling and laughing during the audition, and the folks from Vegas said that they would definitely be coming back. Thumbs up.
I had a reason for posting today, and neither of these were it, but I don't remember what it was, except possibly to declare the awesomeness of my bunny. Meh.

I think the part I find most amusing is where an entry about skunks and "bunny" is entitled "Quack quack quack." I sure hope the skunklets are still all okay!
