Alexandru - expert at finding dead things -.-

This post is by my absolutely amazing boyfriend :D

Since I was little I have always had this talent for finding dead things. Or just killing things. When I was little, at my great-grandparents, I was asked to get an egg for lunch from the chicken's nest, and when I was leaving I dropped the egg. I decided to leave it there and take another one. A couple of weeks later, I saw my great-grandparents rearing the chick from the egg that was dropped. Yes, the egg cracked.

But, we kept it in the warmth and it grew and survived and, a month later, became my dinner. Yum yum!

Another example. We (meaning me, my girlfriend and some other people) were doing our Silver Duke of Edinburgh Practice Expedition, when I found a entire dead lamb's skeleton - about three feet above our heads in a tree. Just hanging there. Here's a pic if you don't believe me:

Let's see...
- A dead fish floating in the Kennet and Avon Canal, which again nobody else noticed besides me. Unfortunately I don't have a picture, because my little angel Hannah flatly refused to take one. I wanted her to take one of me having it in my hands, as if I'd caught it myself, which I did, but, being dead, it wasn't much of a challenge! Also, I wanted to feed it to my friends, but my little angel Hannah stopped me with "the look" - you know, the kind your mother gives you when you're in deep, deep trouble.
- What's next? Roadkill. And lots of it. A smashed up fox, deers, cats, dogs, birds, hedgehogs... so many that I've lost count of them.
- I have also recently spotted a dead, decomposing mouse on the pavement. I was surprised that nobody got rid of it until it was completely decayed. And, on the way to see my little angel Hannah, I found a dead bird - well, chick, it was still in it's shattered egg. It's eyes were big!!!


I can also spot nice things. Bunnies, fishies, rainbows, purple and rainbow-coloured butterflies, that nobody else seem to see. They only see the dead things when I point them out, never the live ones.

The end :)

P.S: If you have found a disgusting dead thing, leave a comment!!
