On occasion I have felt bad for particular vehicular/mammalian interactions. In high school I had pickup truck (a loud obnoxious pickup truck). One day as I was returning home around dusk (about midnight, I live in Alaska) I rounded a corner and saw the neighbor boy (about 5yo) and his mother on the side of the road opposite their house. I eased the truck over to the center of the road to give them some room and wondered why they were there at that hour. As I came up parallel to them I thought "oh well" and stood on the gas to accelerate away from the corner... When I felt the bump. I'm sure the kid thought I swerved and accelerated to intentionally hit his dog. But even I am not that crass. I didn't see that he had been out looking for his dog and that he had called the dog.

I’m sure the kid thought I swerved and accelerated to intentionally hit his dog. But even I am not that crass.

Oh my gosh! that was awful. I can't believe I even wrote that. On a much more serious note, it was a total bummer than you killed Bummer. This was a really well written post.

I am so extra sensitive towards animals and insects that I once ended up burying an ant in a pot. I even cried becasue I killed it unnecessarily, I just had an urge to sqash it. I don't know what I would have done had I been in your place. You are a brave girl Margaret.:) I have never mentioned this to anyone ever but I’ll tell you.

I hit a pretty yellow bird about seven years ago and still feel bad. The feathers rode around on my grate for about three weeks because I couldn't bring myself to touch any part of it.

Bummer is right. The cat's name was Bummer. My gosh-- you might as well just call the cat "FlatCat" or "Roadkill" or something like that when you go ahead and name it Bummer... It doesn't bode well, is what I'm saying. I can only imagine how you feel. But blogging is closure, you know. Ohhhh…. Bummer is right. The cat’s name was Bummer.

I think that keeping it to yourself was the best thing. I would have had to hide in the bathroom and cry though. I once had a woman scream her head off at me in the middle of the road because someone hit a bird. She was standing there cupping this wretched looking starling or something and I slowed down because I was about to ask her if she needed help and she said, "Get the hell out of the way you fat f-ing bitch!" Um, okay. I'm glad you are so concerned about the birdies of the air, because you are pretty much a douchenozzle as far as people go. And way to completely over-react, anyhow. I've put broken people in white bags with zippers and didn't make that much noise. What possible good would it have done to tell him? I think that keeping it to yourself was the best thing.

I was still crying so hard when I arrived home, my mother thought something was seriously wrong with me. I wouldn't have been able to tell Matt I'd run over his cat either. Nope, I would have kept silent, Karma be damned. My first road kill involved two cats chasing each other across the road.

I’m always afraid a possum, raccoon, skunk, deer will come barreling out and not give me enough time to avoid it. However, if it’s me or it, I’m slightly higher in the food chain so it’s going down. :o) I have to drive through forest preserve areas to get to work.
