even a strong man gets spooked

samedi 28 décembre 2013

My son came in a few minutes ago after i sent him out to put a bag of trash in the can on the side of the house. He came back in with the bag and said "there is something out there in the bushes"



I told him to go back out there, it was probably a cat or a opossum. he refused.



so i grabbed a flashlight as there is no light on the side of the house. we walked out, the whole time i was telling him to "man up". we heard nothing so I kicked the bushes.



there was a brown flash it came right out right across my bare foot! I let out a scream and ran high stepping the opposite direction that the "beast of all dooms" ran. I was coming up to the gate on the fence and heard my son holler something but I was in panic mode.



"the beast" must have seen my son with the trash can and turned back towards me to kill me and dine on my tasty protein rich flesh. the damn gate was locked so I turned around with the wildly shaking flashlight beam to see the flash of "brown death" coming straight towards me! I leaped like an Olympic high jumper. I think i had more hang time than Jordan in his prime.



A freaking HUGE ASS bunny ran under the crack of the gate below me while i was in the air.



I was lucky to survive this encounter with this wild beast. not because the beast was dangerous but to my own silly fear reaction.



my son said i screamed like a girl but i think it was more of a war cry.(my neighbor and her daughter came out and collaborated my son's description of my scream.)



I tried to tell them they should not have come out as I was trying to teach them bad things could happen any time but they said they knew it was ok because of my son's rolling laughter.



oh well I have enough man points to spare.
