Having been on Peanut Gallery Duty all weekend, I found that I really identified with this poor squirrel when we found it in the driveway yesterday morning.
I bet this squirrel was a mom of preschoolers at one point, and that's why she looks so dead behind the eyes. Is it too soon to make jokes like that? No. I checked with her, and she said it's fine because it's true.
Solidarity, my squirrel sister.

i hear ya, dead squirrel. your silence speaks volumes.
Inquiring minds need to know, did dead squirrel end up in your compost pile? On a completely unrelated note, does your Aldi have the gluten free taco seasoning packets in the special section right now? Every time I walk by them in my Aldi I feel like I should send you a picture. They are 79 cents a piece here.
Call me dead-eyes.
Sarah, it was at my mom's house, so I'm unsure what exactly happened with the squirrel. I think I overheard that she received a dignified burial, in a grave shallow enough to allow her to feel the rain. But deep enough not to get posthumously eaten by the dog.
I haven't seen them at my Aldi! I also haven't been in a couple of weeks- I'll keep my eyes peeled on Wednesday when I go!
Maggie, I already do...
Todd, the squirrel sees your pain. She knows.
