Good times, good times. I wish it could have come with me, but I couldn&#8217;t put it in my bag.<\/p>\n<p>So I did what any normal person would do. I threw it off the top of a parking garage. Oh wait, that isn&#8217;t normal. Oh well, my leaf deserved an abormal departure because it was so abnormal.

I hope someone else picked it up and realized how cool it was.
