Super Cool Incident
Jun. 5th, 2008 12:12 pmIt's no secret that I feel an affinity for and admiration of ravens. I have a tattoo of Raven on my back, for crying out loud.
And, I'm working on a play entitled Heist A Crow that makes great use of the mythological attributes of corvids. The production has gotten a little chaotic as we charge towards opening night (tomorrow!!), but we've got a great show with us.
So it felt like a benediction, of sorts, when a real-life raven - not a crow, not a corley (crow-raven hybrid) - but a real-life raven landed 10 feet in front of me on the sidewalk as I walked to work. He settled himself, and started walking towards me with that hilarious raven walk. As he got near me, he looked at me, cocked his head, and - I swear on a stack of souls he did this - he nodded, and then kept walking past me.
It was a hell of a way to start what promises to be a chaotic day, I tell you what.
