Dawn's Digression.

Goodness. I've had quite an eventful day.
My biggest trauma occured when I went outside to water the grass and plants.
Michele asked me to be sure and water everything before I left. No problem. I decided to wait until the sun went down, because it's better for the plants if you water them then. For some reason I was a little creeped out. I'm not sure why. I have a tendency to get creeped out for no reason sometimes. But I was being good, and I went outside to turn on the water. I stepped out the front door, and as looking at the stars on the way to the spicket. I bent down to turn it on and my hand grabbed something fuzzy. FUZZY. There was something fuzzy by the spicket. And it wasn't like a lint ball. It was fuzz of substance. Strangely, it didn't haul ass. It just moved a little to the right. But I let out a blood-curdling scream. Actually, it was more of a girl scream. EEEEeeee-Heee-heee! And I hauled butt into the house. I knew I should get the flashlight and check out what it was. But I decided that it was best if I didn't know what it was. Because what if it was worse than what I thought? What if it was....I dunno. I just got freaked. I did get the flashlight and go outside, though. I stepped a good 20 feet away from the area in question and beamed the light over there. I didn't see anything. But I am telling you, there was absolutely something there. And it was fuzzy and soft. And had bones. And I grabbed it. God help me, please let it not be there in the morning when I have to go water the yard. I came inside and locked every door. I'll be sleeping with the kitchen light on tonight. I never do that. I took a sleeping pill, too. If this was a few months ago, and I still lived alone and was dating Michele, I would totally ask to go over there and spend the night. Why am I so creeped out about this??? I'm goofy.
