i'm a nut, you're a nut, hamlet's a nut, we're all NUTS!

i almost hit another squirrel today.

i say another because i hit a squirrel in september.

that was a somber time.

here's what happened...

i was driving home from a nice afternoon of walking along the pier, writing poems, and finishing up some college supplementals... i was feeling good, blasting some tunes (hahah my crazy rihanna and fresh 102.7 radio station presets)... and suddenly i saw a squirrel stop at the double yellow lines in the middle of the road. i stopped and waited for the squirrel to cross, but it remained frozen still at the lines. then, right when i hit the gas it proceeded simultaneously and SPLAT. goodbye dear squirrel friend.

no joke, i cried the entire drive home while Beyonce's "If I Were a Boy" blasted through my prius speakers.  now i am a designated creature killer, despite my efforts to save his little life.
