I had an emotional wreck today.
I was cruising along at a steady pace, roughly around somewhere near the speed limit, when a woodchuck ambled out onto the highway and began to stare me down like a cowboy with chafed thighs. I wanted to swerve, but I just stared at the hunched-over rodent standing on the highway challenging me - daring me - to hit him. I mashed the accelerator and shouted at the top of my lungs, "VIVA LA NARWHAL!" and prepared to obliterate the smug little bastard. How dare he fucking challenge my road authority, anyway?

Anyway, there was no thump-thump. I dunno where the little fucker managed to go. But now it's fucking with my mind that I missed him. It was a game of chicken, and he won. How can I sleep tonight knowing I've been bested by a fucking scavery little rodent that may or may not even exist in the first place? How can I ever drive again, knowing I'm no longer at the top of nature's intricately crafted highway food chain?

Sigh.

2. This is so weird.
Today, I was talking to my mom and she had almost the same exact experience yesterday with a baby squirrel. She was so freaked, but now is convinced that he was in the middle between the tires and got away. Those little critters are really something.

6. I highly recommend that one
or, if you prefer, "STOP FUCKING DOING IT WRONG, ASSHAT!" Both will get weird responses.

8. I think we're having a rodent insurrection
I saw a suspicious looking squirrel by the side of the road today. Be careful. They may be organizing.
