So, this isn't the owl I hit, because this owl is sitting safely in a tree. The owl I hit tonight flew from the side of the mountain (for lack of a better word... the part of the terrain where the road is carved into the side of it. Oh my mommy brain!). Now, technically, the owl hit me. I wasn't going that fast, and I think it bounced off and was okay. And if not, some lucky coyote is going to have an easy time coming up with dinner. The creepy part? I turn into our driveway one and a half miles later and an owl is sitting in the middle of our road. Waiting. Staring. Ready to get it's revenge for me killing it's brother. Just kidding. That's a little Hollywood psycho right there. But you can bet it crossed my mind for a second when it's BLACK outside and I am coming home to an empty trailer and all my kids are asleep...
