a post that's not about my dissertation

I've had a small problem with squirrels taking over my attic, especially as the weather has warmed up. As I work furiously on my dissertation, the squirrels host bowling parties and sumo wrestling contests upstairs.

This weekend I discovered that the squirrels had somehow made their way into the closet on my back porch. I went to clean out the porch, and found yet another goody in what appears to be the squirrels' nest:
I know it's not the greatest photo, but this is definitely another snake skin. Not the first time, but still...not exactly what you want to find in your closet.

They had also squirreled away nuts all over the closet. You never know when your food supply might run out, I suppose...

    I like the mental images of bowling and sumo wrestling squirrels. :)

    It's Wild Kingdom over there, isn't it! (I am not clicking back to that first picture, by the way. Shiver.)
