My cell phone conversation when driving home from work went something like this:
Me: "Hi honey"
Tom: "Hey, I'm going to be a bit late tonight"
Me: "That's too bad. And don't forget I have Spanish class tonight"
Tom: "Bummer, I won't make it home before you leave, so I'll see you after class"
Me: "OK, how was your day?"
Tom: "Well, I'm tired. And I got bitten by a squirrel today."
WHAT?! For those of you that know my husband, this does not come as a surprise for you.
Yes, apparently, after having irritated the squirrels by creating a new, inventive way for them to have access to their peanuts (blue jay free), Tom has irritated one of them enough (by trying to hand feed it), that is actually lunged and bit his hand, instead of grabbing the peanut. (Apparatus picture below.)
Me: "And, are you going to try to hand feed a squirrel again?" (dripping with sarcasm)
Tom: "Not without gloves!"
Don't hand feed squirrels, folks.
