I didn't mean to.
Ann and I were coming backfrom Barnes&Noble this afternoon.
Busy city traffic.
I saw him in the middle of my lane.
I slowed down. He stopped and looked
up at me, I swear we made eye contact.
He started to continue across the lane
but he was moving very slowly and
awkwardly. Like something was wrong
with him. I moved my car a bit to the
right to give him plenty of room but
he turned around and headed back
toward the curb, slowly, and planted
himself directly in front of my tire.
bump......bump. "Oh shit no!"
I've never killed anything in my life. Until today.
Maybe I should say a prayer.
Do squirrels have souls?
