My encounter with the Beverly hills squirrel =)

So today I got up pretty early in the morning walked my lil creature to school and went for a morning jog and to go pay a bill in Beverly hills which is not really that far from where I stay especially when jogging. I had gotten there early the place opened at 9 am and it was around 8:30. So there was a park near by so I decided to go sit and just wait there. So there I am listening to music trippin out on all these people running the track, watching the kids play. And thinking damn who the hell brings their child to the park at 8 am. When all of a sudden I feel like someone comes and jumps on the table at first I thought it was a man trying to attack me or run up on me and I see no one was behind me. So then I look at the table and this lil thing is sitting next to me.
anyone who knows me knows that I am scared of squirrels. There claws and they run fast and they carry diseases there cute but they freak me out.
So I guess this lil thing thought I was a statue cause I was not moving or its just really brave and jumped on the table next to me.
it was pretty funny cause we both just kinda looked at each other shocked and I moved over a lil bit cause I was scared and it freaked out and hopped off the table and stood and looked at me like like it was going to attack me.
we paused and just looked at each other. It was time for me to go so I jogged off.

BOTH of those were funny! You just knocked loose an old memory of mine, though. I didn't really think that I ever had an "event" with a squirrel - ducks, yes, squirrels - no, but I did...I just forgot. And now, you've reminded me. It was about 10 years ago. I was leaving my apartment and walked out onto the fire escape when I saw a squirrel standing a few steps up looking at me. I looked back at him (or her), and he just kind of stared at me. Then I walked down a few stairs and he walked down a few stairs. And then I walked down a few more and then he walked down a few more. By the time I got to the ground floor I was running and screaming and the squirrel was totally running AFTER ME!!! I looked like a big asshole. And the squirrel, well...the squirrel looked like a superhero.
