I'm going to racoon hell.
So tonight I added to the road kill of the world. What was so damn horrible about this situation was that at the last second when I realized in the pitch black that these bastards were powwowing in the road I saw it was a mommy and her three babies. Well lets just say now there aren't three babies anymore. I fricken plowed those things right over. It was horrible. When I went back to see the damage that was done, the half crippled mom that I guess I ran over too was dragging the carcasses off the road.
Depressing fucking racoons.
There’s a promise I need you to make
While I’m gone you take care of the love
And I’ll deal with the hate.
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight

Awwww, bless your heart. I can only imagine how that would make me feel too. But thank goodness you didn't run into a tree to avoid them.

Reminds me of the time one of my nieces got her first new car - a little Honda. She hadn't had for very long before a German Shepard ran out in the road into her car. There was no way she could stop. Doggy died and it smashed the whole front end of her car.

If you had tried to take the mom and surviving babies to a vet, she probably would have clawed and bit you to shreds, and sometimes they carry rabies. About the only thing you might have done is call Animal Control, but chances are the mom would be long gone by the time they got there.

Hope you ran over them and put them out of their misery. Turning the radio up helps. (yeah, I'm sappy like that; rather not hear what's going on)

Oh, Autumn. You're not going to raccoon hell. It's not like you were aiming for them. I'm just glad that you're alright.

Your not the only one who added to the total. Going code to a call last night lady was too busy watching me go by last night, never even saw the raccoon in front of her, luckily she got him good so I'm sure he was out pretty quick.

I tried to dodge him but I hit an armadillo this week on one of our main streets. I was hoping he curled up and avoided severe injury,,,, but my big truck smashed him. I felt bad,
I had a flash back to the armadillo cake in Steel Magnolias"Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History"

when I was in high school, I was driving home in my 67 VW bug with a ragtop,sigh, and SWORE I hit a dog. I slammed on the brakes, got out to look, and the sunofabyotch hadnt been hit by me, he HIT me. Ran right in the side of the passenger door. Was standing there shaking hs head, looked at me, growled, and ran away. I think thats MINUS points
500 fights, that's the number I figured when I was a kid. 500 street fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate tough guy. You need them for experience. To develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then, after, you realize that's what you are.

Are we keeping score now?
My current police department:
3 oppossum
6 ground squirrels
2 rabbits
1 owl
2 coyote

1 cat
My previous Sheriff's department:
100's of these small little brown birds in Ca's Central Valley
4 dogs (2 of them were mating when I turned the corner code 3 and hit them!)
1 deer (ate the deer but it looked strange with a deer stapped to the outside of my trunk!)
I kept score on the inside of my posse box lid! ALL SUICIDE BY COP!

The man who will go where his colors go, without asking who will fight a phantom foe in the jungle and mountain range, without counting, and who will suffer and die in the midst of incredible hardship, without complaint, is still what he has always been, from Imperial Rome to sceptered Britain to democratic America. He is the stuff of which legions are made. ...His pride is in his colors and his regiment, his training hard and thorough and coldly realistic, to fit him for what he must face...and his obedience is to his orders. He has been called United State Marine.
