Good Omens

Today, we touched up the tent and put on the finishing touches. We are now preparing to work on the "Sideshow" banners, the entrance banner, and lighting for the outside of the tent tomorrow. Oh, and we are going to completely tear the tent down and rebuild it to make sure that we are all on the same page as far as putting it back together.

So after we were finished today I stuck around by myself waiting for Chris and Wayne to return from the Home Depot. As I waited I coiled up miles of power cables left behind from the PA System and Lighting. Well I looked up and in walks this chicken. Jake saw him walk in the tent and came in. At that moment the chicken decided to jump up on my shoulder. He had no intentions of leaving either. I'm not quite sure what to make of this. I'm not certain but I don't think that chickens generally hop onto humans shoulders and hang out. What the hell kind of Pirate would this make me? Maybe in some cultures this is good luck, maybe the bird new that I was a vegetarian and took refuge with me knowing that Jake had chicken curry for lunch. 

Chickens are weird, this one taking the cake. He literally did not want to leave my shoulder. It didn't bother me too much so I let him hang out for a while. I finally asked him to get off of my shoulder. Wayne's wife Michelle brought out some bird feed for him and he seemed quite content to eat it. I have a feeling that he is now a resident of the compound. 

I have decided to name him Bingo. As I finished coiling cables and making sure that everything was put away Bingo just followed me around. He'd peck at the ground and make some chicken noise and then look up at me as if I had some answer to some question that he had. Maybe I do, maybe all I really need to do is figure out the question. I often think that we always have the answers, it's just the questions that we ask ourselves are the wrong ones.

Well, I hope that Bingo does ok tonight. Wayne has cats. Wayne's cats are sort of fat so I don't think they will catch him. Bingo's pretty quick.

I think Bingo is a good omen.
