First it started off last thursday. I was driving across town and under a parked car I saw something that caught my attention. I couldn't quite figure out what it was. So I turned around and headed back. Then along the curb I saw a baby squirrel. He appeared to have fallen out of a tree because he was staggering a little bit. I wasnt' sure if this was due to a fall, or because he was so young. So I gathered him up, called the vet to find out what to do. I took him home, made him confy and headed to the store to get milk and a syringe to feed him. On my way back I got pulled over. Yes, I did explain to the officer what was going on. He was a little surprised  but said he was ordered to give everyone tickets because it was a speed trap, so he would reduce my speed and make it so I don't have to go to court. So off I went to care for my new friend "curby". That night he did fine, but by the next morning, he mostly slept and wouldnt' eat. Then that afternoon he died. I only had the little guy for 24 hours but I cried like he was my best friend!!
Curby:
After that the weekend was basically shot. I have been friends with this guy for 8 years and we got in this huge fight and are no longer friends. We were on a house boat and he was yelling at me. I went to leave-he grabbed the door and said, "no, if you want to leave...there you go" and pointed to the river. I'm scared of water and cant' swim...so that was that. Sunday came-My husband ran over my cell phone (yeah....refer to the "bad storm" thread-I just got a new one literally a month ago because I dropped it in the toilet ) and then I hit a bird. I decided to go home and go back to bed and not put anyone within a 20 feet radius of me in danger of lightening striking them.  so yeah-that was my weekend.
On a good note-one of my best friends had her baby on friday. that was about the ONLY good thing that happened!!  |
That squirrel is sooo cute. How sad. I cried when I bonded with the mouse for a half hour, then my cat brought it back to me in half, too.
"Curby" -
I'm so sorry about your friend. Hopefully you two will work it out. Oh, but I think he's mean for tellling you to "swim for it".
Good luck.
Geez, I should've gone with my first instinct and not read this whole thread. Saddest thread ever. Except for the news about Cash.
