swan song

Remember that swan down at Heritage Park? I paid him a visit today on my lunch break, and decided to try and take a video of him. Being the prissy bird that he is, of course he obliged. He swam up to me, then climbed out of the water and started following me. You'll hear my giggles as he does this. *g*

I also took a few pictures, which I'll post later, or perhaps on my photo blog. It wasn't quite as warm today, but it's sunny and nice, and definitely still un-December-like.

I will be very glad when this day is over. Our least-favorite customer (and believe me, there are a lot of contenders for that title) came in today and had a hissy fit because he's in a feud with another of our customers, and we're caught in the middle. Each accuses the other of copying their ad, but at least the other one only calls. This one comes in and gets louder and louder as he argues the same point over and over. In my experience, this is usually a sure sign that they're in the wrong: the louder they are, the wronger they tend to be. I wish they would both just go away.

At least I had some dark chocolate M&Ms to soothe the frazzled nerves. Nom.
