A Misperception of a City Girl


Today was crazy at work and by lunch time I was ready to escape from my usual routine of working out and eating whatever I brought from home. So Heather and I decided to drive to Chick-Fil-A to pick up salads. On the way over there...Heather blurts out..."Look, Look at that bird on top of that car.".....I turn my head and ...OH MY GOSH...IT IS AN EAGLE. AN EAGLE perched on top of someones car. There was a big crowd of people standing around looking at it. "How crazy is that?" I thought...it's not everyday that you drive downtown and see an eagle hanging out on top of a car. So 30 mintues later ...we drive back by the car and the bird is STILL there...with a crowd of people still looking at it. So Heather pulls out her camera to take a picture. Thinking I am way cool for seeing such a rare thing...I proudly tell EVERYONE in the office that there's an eagle on top of a car outisde our building. Heather comes to find me 15 minutes later and says....You might want to stop telling people it's an eagle...because I just found out it was a hawk. So my cool story of our Nations bird on top of a car turned into a dumb old hawk hanging out. Actually I thought it was still cool....it was a big bird and it didn't go anywhere for like a whole hour......but not near as exciting as my first story. I know what a hawk looks like...but I'm from the city and sorry....I may get my eagles and hawks mixed up from time to time! Enjoy my ghetto pic....of Heather's pic on her camera!
