NaBloPoMo Weekend Final Edition

This time next weekend I will be sitting on my ass recovering from a nasty hangover, not trying to squeeze out a last minute blog post from my constipated imagination. 

BUT, until then, here is the next to last wasted weekend edition.

I actually have something to talk about. 
First:  I am in Arkansas at my Grandparents house for this Thanksgiving holiday.  A special shout out to the loins from which I originated.  They actually read this blog on a regular basis.  If I had known that sooner, I would have probably kept things a little cleaner around here.  Or at least not spent so much time talking about rashes on my testicles.  Some things are meant just for strangers on the internet, not Grandmas.

Second weekend story:  On the last few miles to my Grandparents house a crazed deer jumped out in front of my vehicle.  It was quite sudden.  I always thought to myself, when people would relate a story of hitting a deer, “why didn’t you just stop?” Well, now I know the folly of my thought process.  Those sons of bitches are fast. 

Luckily I was not in my Jeep.  Not that it couldn’t handle the punishment, but who wants to spend the entire weekend scraping tiny deer chunks off the windshield?  Instead I was in my Brother-in-Law’s big souped up 4X4 truck.  It sits up nice and high so the deer could not roll up into the windshield. 

All we saw was a brief glimpse of a deer dashing out in front of the truck, then a momentary glance of a couple of antlers (four pointer for all you hunting enthusiasts out there), then I braked, he slid off the road, and I kept on driving. 

I would have stopped, except for two reasons: 1:  I was following my Dad who did not even slow down, he was racing away (probably had to poop or something).  2.  What was I going to do?  Strangle the last few breaths of life out of him?  I know he would have loved the opportunity to take my ass to the grave with him.  I am pretty sure that damn deer was hopped up on crack anyhow.  Why else would he have jumped out in front of giant truck?

Killing that deer with the truck was strangely invigorating.  I understand the thrill of hunting now.  I am still to lazy and impatient to sit it the woods and kill Bambi’s mom, but if she were to wander out onto the freeway, I might just speed up and/or swerve into her.  Don’t get me started on what I would do to Thumper’s ass if I saw it on the roadway.

In a Recap:
The things I am Thankful for this Thanksgiving:
My Family (for hoping there was an antler sticking out of the truck’s grill as a trophy.  I appreciate that kind of sick humor)
My Brother-in-Law’s Coon-Assedness (for insisting on taking a perfectly good brand new truck and jacking it up a few inches and putting giant tires on it)
My Brother-in-Law’s Lack of Blog Reading (I haven’t told him about his truck yet, the bumper is probably going to need replacing.  LSU lost last night (he went to the game instead of coming here), he would probably break down and cry at this point.)

  • Wow. You do have a lot to be thankful for. I wish I had had a jacked up truck when I was driving home from Thanksgiving. We saw plenty of deer smoking crack on the side of the road.

  • The update, of course he finally told his brother-in-law about the truck.  The ASS never asked if anyone was hurt.  Also, no damn antler in the grill.

    Better luck next year Killer!!

  • I saw a documentary about the guys whose job it is to remove deer carcasses from the side of the highways. There were a lot. Ew.
    I killed a rabbit once, which I counted as a good thing, since rabbits are a plague in Australia. But I would be devastated if I ever hit a native animal. So would my car for that matter. Not many vehicles can survive a head-on collision with a kangaroo or wombat. Those guys are solid!

  • My husband goes around telling people we live in the #1 county in the country for deer hits.  I don’t know if it’s true, but Ted Nugent doesn’t live very far from here, so maybe.  I do see a lot of carcasses smeared around here. 
    Good luck with your BIL.  It’s been my experience that guys who have taken the trouble to fancify and jack up their vehicles are usually overly attached to them and possibly under-insured.

  • Churlita:
    I like driving his truck, it gives me a swelled sense of manliness. 

    Chris (sis):
    He was at least not too upset about it.  I think he was still in a daze from the LSU loss.

    Nerevised:
    All I really know about Kangaroos is from cartoons, so I would also hesitate to hit any kangaroos, especially since they seem to always be wearing a pair of boxing gloves.  Are they born with those, or is someone in charge of applying them?

    A broad:
    Luckily his super truck is actually registered to his company, so it is covered by his business insurance.  I am still pretty sure it is an over-compensation for other short comings, but that is another issue.
