oh, and per Wah's request, I'll write a note about my buddy, the squirrel. We had decided that despite Audrey's swelling head injury and ear infection, we were going to make the 6 hr. trek to p'cola. No place better to rest, than in the car, right? So, it's around 2, I make the girls lunch and hurry to pack the truck. As I'm bringing bags out, I notice two squirrels playing on the driveway (foreshadowing). I remember making mental note of that..... I eventually get packed, buckle Ella, come in the house to get Audrey who has put herself down for a nap on the couch, close up, and hit the road. Right before I get on the highway, I hear a bunch of scratching sounds and the girls sort of scream and ask what's that. I immediately knew it was a squirrel. One of the damn ones that way playing in the drive way. I pull over and immediately after I open the hatch the critter jumps out and runs in to the woods. I remained oddly calm, as i do in stressful situations, hopped back in the front, and drove off with my leg shaking on the pedal. It really didn't register with the girls as being really weird and gross
