Sometimes, I simply don’t know.

There is so much I don’t know about every thing ….  from the little to the big.   Animals… for instance.  Like why my dog barks at her shadow.  With intensity.  And then runs.  And wouldn’t you know…. that shadow follows.

Or nature kinds of things…. in general.    I see these types of leaves quite often, and I truly can’t figure out what is happening here.  Help me here.  What is wrong with these leaves?

Do they have Leaf Warts (which occur when a toad or frog has touched the leaf).  Could they be Leper Leaves…. and they are on their way to a Leaf Leper Colony somewhere?  In Jerusalem?   Or….  possibly….. a case of Tree Acne gone bad?

Are there little bugs inside of those things… and if so… holy shit.  I brought them into my house to photograph them.  That can’t be good.

Perhaps they are minuscule Alien Pods from the Dlofgka Galaxay.    Again… if so…. holy shit.  Again.  They are now in my house.

Or perhaps there is nothing wrong at all.  Maybe they are pregnant leaves.  Getting ready to have lots of  Leaf Babies.  I should take them back outside…. in that case.

There is so much I do not know about life… and living.   I guess that is one of the best things about being here.  Trying to figure it all out.

Then again.  Maybe I should do less figuring.   The more I know… it seems… the less I know.  And…. it makes me worry that I’m not doing all of this quite right.  I get all nervous then… and lose sleep at night with all the brooding…. and agonizing about this.  My head starts to hurt… and I get hives….  which look a LOT like Leaf Warts.

That settles it.   I’m taking the bumpy leaves back outside.    Before I get any more confused.    I know my dog can bark…. but now that I think of it… so can a tree.  And trees have leaves…..  and….  uhhhhnnnnn…..
