This is what I get for only having the comic in my feed.
I haven't listened to the latest one, but the others yeah. Sooo glad he's back!
So, I was reading an article where a woman talks about being abandoned by her father and how she would imagine him being around and she would talk to and hang out with this imaginary father figure. It kind of shocked me into realizing that I have done the same thing my whole life. When I was doing something that was important to me and he wasn't around (which was most things after I turned 13 and he left) I would imagine explaining things to him, talking to him and such. I never did any of this out loud, it was all in my head, but I still catch myself doing it to this day.
Hey dads, don't fucking leave your kids high and dry for a decade. It sucks. Don't do it.

My father never left me, but I still regularly talk to a fictional father figure in my head. Also, in-my-head version of my girlfriend or my mother, depending on what I'm going through or whose advice I want/need/would like. Those in my head tend to not interrupt quite so often as the real ones, but err, is this problematic?
No, seriously now, obviously fathers abandoning their children is bad, I'm not talking about that, but now I'm wondering - is it aproblem if you talk to in-your-head versions of people you know or concepts?
So, random (funny?) story of the day:
All hell broke loose yesterday in my neighborhood because a moose wandered in to town.
It camped out at a park that is a block away from my house and people lost their minds a bit. This one guy tried to corral it (idiot..), but the moose got mad and charged him, so the guy had to run into the restrooms at the park and block the door so the moose couldn't get it. There's also a school 2 blocks east of the park and as school was being let out, the police were called to escort the kids past the park, so they wouldn't make the moose even more angry. Like, I think the whole precinct was there. They then waited until animal control could come, tranqalize it and re-locate it.
It was an interesting afternoon.

In Canada we call that Tuesday.
Had a girl do that for a solid 2 weeks. Refusing to meet, only chat on IM and send me pictures. I still chatted with other girls, met others IRL as well. Eventually just stop responding to her IMs.
I know right? I was going to mention how people in Canada and Alaska don't lose their minds over this. But I mean, really, you have to remember, I'm in Utah, not the most common place to see a moose in town.
Utah 911, what's your emergency?
Hi, there's a moose in town.
A... a moose?! Mother of god... police dispatch, code Bullwinkle! Send everyone, SEND EVERYONE!
Ah, awesome. I laughed. Like, not in the 'lol' way. There was genuine laughter. You've bolstered my mood.
No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse
with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given
her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and
star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo
Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst
Nordfink".
I feel drunk today. I'm so tired, but still in a good mood, that I don't think I'm making smart decisions. Although, I can't deny that this work day is awful.
I'm so sorry if I annoy anyone today because I can't seem to shush my face.
