Duck!

Oddest incident of the week: working on an illustration of a duck (no, really) while uploading a file with Cyberduck in the background, then getting a loud ‘QUACK!’ from the computer and a bouncing duck icon when Adium received a message. When you’re tired and have been sat at your desk for longer than is healthy that kind of thing can be quite disturbing.

However, the snack I had in front of me did not contain duck, and the bird scratching around on the roof was a magpie, so the synchronicity effect was limited to the computer.
