I swear this is true. We have a Squunk. That's right, a squirrel with a skunk tail. And no, I don't have a picture of it yet but Will, Marc and I have all seen it. It's a mutant squirrel with an extra bonus add-on white skunk tail. Will told me about it and I sort of paid attention but didn't realize the incredible awesomeness of what he was talking about until I saw it myself on Saturday night. We were having Marc's 96-year old mother over for dinner when it caught my eye through the window. I was trying to explain its presence to Grandma but since she won't wear hearing aids all she got was that we had a squirrel in the backyard.
She just smiled and said, "Oh, I used to have squirrels sometimes, do you have a lot of squirrels?"
"NO GRANDMA THIS IS NOT JUST ANY SQUIRREL. IT HAS A SKUNK TAIL!!!"
"Oh, that's nice..."
She smiled some more. We gave up. I think she thinks we might be kind of squirrelly ourselves.
I love my backyard!
