The Opossum

A few weeks ago this guy showed up.  Well, in all fairness, he’s probably been here quite a while, but it was the first time I’d gotten up close and personal with him.  He thought it would be a good idea to hunker down in the crook of our weeping willow tree.  Unfortunately, he did not realize that Hannah is tall and when she stands on her hind legs they are face to face. 

That makes him choosing this location a really, really bad idea.  He stayed there the entire day, so every time Hannah went outside she quite literally got all up in his face.  It was a huge relief when he was gone the next day. 

This morning Hannah and her sidekick, Bella, were over by the weeping willow tree making a ruckus.  Yup, the opossum was back.  Unbelievable!  What an idiot!  Why would he make the same mistake twice?  Has he learned nothing?

Fortunately, we humans are much more evolved and never make the same mistake twice.

Wait . . .

Nevermind.
