The weirdest thing happened to me today. I was walking back home after work when a strange butterfly flew right up to me. I'd seen yellow and black ones before, but never any with six wings. That wasn't the really weird part, though. Usually, butterflies just sort of flit about between flowers, occasionally landing on a branch or the ground to rest. The most I've ever interacted with them was when I went to the animal sanctuary and a bunch landed on me as I stood very still. But this butterfly was different. It flew in circles around me, sticking close but never touching. And even as I moved halfway across town, it followed. The butterfly ended up going with me all the way to the house. I half expected it to enter when I did, but instead it stopped at the threshold, hovering in place. Being a nature bug, I guess it understood that it belonged outdoors. That was good, otherwise I would have had to shoo it away.

When I opened my front door this morning, the butterfly was still there, hovering in the same spot. It was as if it hadn't moved all night, waiting, though that can't be right. Much like yesterday, it didn't leave my side whenever I wasn't inside a building. Other than that, another surprisingly uneventful day. I wonder what exactly this butterfly wants with me?

The butterfly started behaving differently today. It would start as normal, hovering around me, but when I focused on it, it flew away, as if beckoning me to follow. I wasn't about to just drop everything to galivant after an insect, though. Plus it probably wasn't healthy for the little thing to obsess over me instead of, well, whatever it was butterflies normally liked. Nectar, I suppose. Regardless, I ate lunch at Sugarcube Corner today, which never fails to lift my spirits. I had a chocolate milkshake. Boring, I know, but even the Triple Whip Dip Supreme gets old after a while. Sometimes going back to basics can be refreshing.
