Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

possibly. Up until last year they never called off for snow there. My niece and nephew graduated from there and I don't think they ever had an official snow day.
I heard the school system I was raised in had their very first delayed opening today. Of course this stuff always happens when we are no longer in a position to benefit from it.

Oh my gosh, could this night get any better?

About 1/2 hour ago, through our open bedroom window I heard a "pup" yelping somewhere out back. Ski heard it too. He decides to investigate.

Initially I thought a coyote had gotten someone's dog, but whatever it is appears to be on our neighbour's side of the fence. We can't see what it is, and I won't let him hop the fence to investigate. Could be any number of creatures, including skunk, baby coyote, who knows?

The yipping and yelping is starting to die down, but a scrabbling noise persists, and Ski wants to call 911.
Anyway, now we're fighting because he says I'm letting whatever it is just die.

Dude, it's 4:00 a.m. We can't see it. We are not calling the cops. Animal control is closed. And you have zero tools to deal with whatever it is - no gloves, traps, ropes, whatever ....

We have a fully fenced backyard to keep out the bigger critters, and chicken wire along the bottom 3' to keep out most of the smaller ones.

I really (I mean really, really) want to go to bed, but now idiot boy is back outside trying to do who knows what.

Ugh!

Critter update - Ski got a bit of a look at it. He thinks it's a really big raccoon trapped under the ladder the neighbours keep chained to their fence. He was considering how to release it when it sensed his presence, got really agitated and had a seizure. (His version of events, so who knows.) Anyway, the seizure part made him think rabies, so now he's probably going to steer clear of it.
Once I've satisfied myself that he's not silly enough to take another stab at saving it, I too can go to bed. 4:35 is late, even for me.
And oh yeah, I have to get Hubby up for 8:00.

Please do not go near it. Wait for your animal control office to open up and let someone come to assess the situation. If the raccoon had rabies (and you don't know yet), it's a very dangerous situation for you and Ski.

I know this. And you know this.
But Mr. 19-year old "I Can Save The World" was not convinced of this until the seizure.

I just got off the phone with the neighbour. Surprisingly, I woke them, as they are usually up at the crack of dawn.

They were totally oblivious to the goings-on last night.

No, I've got two left. My youngest, and the one I call "the extra kid in the basement" - both 19.

It was the almost 21-year old who moved out.
I thought the "extra kid" left months ago. Check your distribution list as I am apparently not getting all the memo's. Now I'm more convinced then ever that the "21" will be back before very long. ;)
