When I was in pre-school, there was this big tree out in the corner of the playground with a huge knot in the trunk. I used to believe that a family of squirrels lives inside of the tree and the knot was their front door. I'm sure people thought there was something seriously wrong with me since I would spend the majority of recess with my ear pressed against the tree trying to hear the squirrels and talk to them. That probably explains why I didn't have very many friends.
