It's a night for funny....
So the GF called me about 45 min ago. Seems that her dog left her a present on the back patio....an Opossum.
So she asks me what she should do about it. After asking her to check over the dog....I explain that she doesn't want to touch the critter...get a shovel and put it in a box and use a trash bag.... She REALLY wants me to come over and take care of it. And then it dawns on me....OPOSSUM!
So I tell her about them playing dead. She says..."It looks REALLY dead. I see teeth and everything." lol. I laugh. I have ulterior motives...
The Big Bang Theory is about to start on TV. Pretty much the one show I watch regularly. So I say "Let it sit for a 1/2 hour or so and after BBT I'll come over and get a shovel and take care of it for you. They play dead, you know."
I watch TV for 1/2 hour, grab my
vape stuff and a spare set of
batteries. Ready go head out into the rain. So she calls me.... IT'S GONE. lol.
(Atty Wipes brow) Secretly glad I don't have to go over there in the cold dark rain and deal with a dead animal on patio crisis (not that it's bad to go there, just not fond of standing out in the dark with a shovel lurking around the back yard during Halloween season...ya know?)
So we have a discussion about "How did the dog catch it"......
P.S. The dog looks fine. She washed hands and such after dealing with the dog. Now..... we get to laugh about it later.
OK. Maybe not that funny. But...now you guys know what to do if the dog brings you an opossum present. Wait!
