Good Sunday

For those of you who read my last blog, here's the follow up to that and a recap of my day.

-Went water skiing
-Took my pup to the beach for two hours, the weather was great!
-Saw No Strings Attached
-Had dinner at a nice italian restaurant downtown
And here's the craziest part... I watched a possum get run over :(
I was driving along around 10 PM just heading home, and I see a possum walking across the road. I got out of the way and drove right over him, hoping that I wouldn't hit him. I cringed as I drove slowly and then turned around to see that he was still there. I absolutely had to find out if he made it across, so I turn around and come back. I'm at a stop light about 50 yards away, I see two other cars swerve out of the way to avoid him. Then a third card comes racing down and hits him dead on. I drove up and rolled the window down and he was still alive, just twitching. It was so so sad :(

Rest in Peace, Dasher the possum. Hope your in a better place.

    well the good news is that possums carry lots of diseases so there is an upside.

    That's sad man, I've seen people intentionally run down animals on the road.

    That shit is just cruel.
