Trouble Bruin

One of my daughter’s responsibilities as a Senior RA at her university is to handle “coverage” a handful of times each semester. This consists of walking through the buildings in her complex at 10pm, midnight, and 2am during her shift and checking all study lounges, halls, bathrooms, and the perimeter of the buildings to ensure no one is in need of any type of assistance. The dorm she manages is in a lovely, wooded area. *beats you over the head with foreshadowing*

Early this morning when she was headed back into her apartment after completing rounds, she heard a noise near the building’s dumpster and looked over to see a rather large BEAR. 

And I have many thoughts:

- If there was a world record for the fastest-ever purchase of  bear spray, I absolutely broke it this morning 

- Shouldn’t this dumbass be hibernated already?

- “Free” room and board is most certainly not 

- I’ll still take the bear over a drunken fraternity guy (I apologize for the redundancy). Conveniently, the bear spray could potentially come in handy for that, too.

I look forward to sleeping after she moves out in May,

Brutalism
