A Hubcab, A Bird, and Some Change

I went to Ralph's and Sav-On last night. In Ralph's I saw a man walking down an aisle with a hubcab in his hand. He was shopping for milk. In Sav-On I heard a loud SQUAWK! and saw a woman one checkout line over with a colorful bird on her shoulder. He seemed angry (or happy?) about something, so he SQUAWKED! again. The woman turned her head to the bird, mumbled something and let it nip at her lip. Then she laughed and it SQUAWKED! yet again.

When I left and made my way through the parking lot, I thought my pants seemed heavier than usual and upon further investigation I discovered I had somehow come away from the two stores with $3.27 in loose change.

Well then.
