Learning As I Go: The squirrel
I yell at squirrels. Yes, I’m one of those. They can’t hear me from inside my car, I know, and they wouldn’t be able to understand human anyway, but still, I yell at them when they won’t get out of the road.
On my way home last week, I had another opportunity to yell at a squirrel. Just as I rounded a corner, he sat there in the middle of the blacktop. “Move, squirrel!” I hollered. There was no time to slowdown and the poor guy would surely become road pizza in a matter of seconds
