I know that the people running the nearby business would not have been thrilled about this, but we found an adorable mouse in a doorway downtown and watched it until it got spooked and ran to hide under a car. It looked like a character in a children's book.
I also got a stack of 25-cent cd's from the library store. Most of them were bands that I was just guessing might be good, and usually I like maybe half of what I try on that basis, but this time it looks like all but one (a christian metal band) are keepers. My favorite so far is a group called "The Very Best" that sounds like african techno pop.
