I was walking back from the House of the Purple Cats (where it turns out I was not needed because A&J came home a day early without telling me) and I encountered an Opossum. It was possibly the ugliest thing I have ever seen in person. I have somehow never seen one before. I thought it was a cat at first but then I got closer and realized it was not a cat. It scurried across the street and under a large car and came out to stare at me from the sidewalk like a creepy alien rat. It was kind of mangy looking and part of its tail was missing. But also! A marsupial! How cool it that? But why are our marsupials so ugly? *is jealous of Australia* I wonder if it was coming home from a Superbowl party...
