the raccoons are fucking. or eating my cat. first there was growling and snarling but then it sounded like an exhausted baby choking with baby asthma (2x baby score). watching th x-files episode with the chupacabra virus makes me think that a) raccoons are chupacabras, or at least related in an evolutionary sense b) chupacabras are like urban yeti/sasquatch/bigfoot (could a chupacabra live off eating strays? what sort of wild animal population can support a chupacabra?) and we have a population locally c) my watching of that episode summoned the ghost of the cursed creature in the back yard. season 4 was the peak. they keep having parties down the street i hope my bike really gets stolen unless someone wants to pay thirty dollars to crush it to bits. supply your own sledge. not as exciting as a car. this should have ended sixty eight words ago as of now. livejournal spellcheck doesn't have chupacabra or sasquatch so it suggests chokeberry and squashy/seasick/sketch/squish. all of which are fine and respectable words but not quite what i was looking for.
