Rocky Racoon*

Your heart always races a bit when you approach your apartment building and see several cop cars and even one cop truck parked outside.  That is, until you ask a few questions and discover the reason they’re there is because a racoon is stuck up in a tree next to your door.  Sadly, it was too dark for a cameraphone picture (didn’t have my camera on me) — he looked so cute just clinging onto the branch.  I’m sure he was thinking something like, "great, now what the hell do I do?"  I wonder where he came from?

* Still one of my all-time favorite Beatles songs.  Not sure why.

    He probably was rabid – they usually don’t come out of the woods unless they’re sick. but yes, they are cute. . .

    Cute, but mean. I once came across a mama with her babies and man she looked like she was ready to tear me up if I didn’t back up fast.
