Well, the 12th my mom and I were tooling around Marshall TX looking for a hotel at about one in the morning. I was driving, and this is all back country roads, so I kinda expected some wildlife to be hanging around the roads and just generally being suicidal. So I was talking to mom when this rabbit jumps out in front of the car. I swerved and missed it, which made me happy, and I mentioned to mom that I hadn't hit anything yet. We turned around at the town where they turn all the signal lights off at night since we assumed that if the town closed down, it probably wouldn't have a hotel. Well, on the way back down the deserted highway at about 1:30am, another rabbit leisurely hopped in front of my car.
I didn't miss that one.
Now mom won't stop calling me "Rabbit Killer."
So I mentally told that first rabbit that it'd better make good use of its' life, since the second rabbit was sacrificed for it.
In other news, Animal Planet tells me that there are an estimated 3000 tigers in Texas, which is more than a little alarming.
I can't say Arkansas was particularly exciting, but then, that doesn't surprise me. In Memphis, though, we stopped for lunch, and I let one of the workers know that the handicapped toilet in the restroom was, frankly, terrifying. (Trust me.)
He didn't believe me, so I had fun teasing him about it when he went to go look.
Last night I had some dream about magic worms. Maybe I'll remember to write down my dreams.
Sorry haven't done much, so don't have too much to say. Some of you will be getting postcards soonish, so keep an eye out!
