i almost hit a dog today.
again!
different town, different street, same kind of dog!
once again, a little yippy white fluffy doggy ran in front of my truck today.
again, i reacted in time to avoid cremating the white puff all over the street. (mmm white creme puff...)
and no, this time i did not spill my dew. i finished drinking 88% of it. no tippin that one over.
and yet, once again there were witnesses to my near miss.
a little girl riding her pink bike and wearing a pink bike helmet.
and the guy across the street, who was playing with a dalmation, which i think the yipster was running after.
since there were kids around, i was not driving fast. in fact i was distracted by the dalmation.
cool lookin dogs, dalmations. i've heard they are mean dogs in general. who knew?
but i'm tellin ya! next time this happens to me, i'm just gonna hit the dog and keep driving!
enough a' this! am i avoiding fate by not sending at least one furball of a pooch to doggie heaven?
i'd like to believe i have a bigger destiny than ruining a pink helmet wearing little girls day.
or maybe the little girl would prefer a cat, and she keeps chasing the annoying little mutt into the street. ...i better stop before i start telling a story of an innocent little girly girl gone wrong. maybe some other time.
so there ya have it. i've saved two canines who deserved to be roadkill by bein quick with the brake pedal. and only one spilled drink and a sticky floor to show for it. stay tuned and find out when and if i get my chance again...
