black bear, black bear, what do you see? nothing. i'm dead.

Dear QotD?ers,

I'd be tempted to have our bedroom redone.  there is plenty of empty space and empty walls that I'd love to have painted, decorated and maybe even a chase lounge (that's not how you spell it, is it.  chaaaze?)
but ultimately i'd pick the living room.  since it is the most used room in the house, and it also has plenty of empty walls.
Unless this redo can include a dumb waiter.  then it's the upstairs movie room. DUMB WAITER!!!

Today's Question of the Day? is:

Why doesn't Justin believe me when I claim the roadkill on the way to work is a black bear?

love,
The Asker

Possibly because it is not a normal place for black bear to be crossing and he is smart enough to have known that (but not sure how that would have made his radar). They do have specific areas that they are known to be. They are moving back into East Texas again some. And that he has a good suspicion that it is likely a boar hog! More than likely! Because they are EVERYWHERE!!!! LIKE FIRE ANTS!!!

It's not that he doesn't believe you, it's that he's secretly terrified of black bears and doesn't want you to find out for fear you will doubt his manliness.

Also, I think it's "chaise".

Because it just seems really unlikely?

I saw a squished alligator on the road the other day, but I live in Louisiana, so apparently that's normal.

Because he is so intently focusing on his driving that he could not see clearly what you were pointing out to him. I don't think he has ever had a traffic ticket in his life.

Because they are so uncommon in that part of Texas?

Oh, he believes you. But he cannot admit that he believes you because his secret operative job forbids him from acknowledging to you, or anyone, that black bears exist. Well, really, they don't. Those are all aliens disguised as black bears and are part of the conspiracy that Justin is involved in that he cannot share with you or discuss with you.

You know nothing about black bears. Or black bear ops. shhhh.

Auntie Barb, he is pretty smart.....

TamiJean, i think you are right (on both accounts)

Jessi, true. but there's an alligator in the retention pond in our neighborhood, and that seems unlikely too!

Stacy, please come squish our alligator

Jeannie, I think you are also right.

Mom, that was his excuse!

Anne, oh, that's a very complicated answer. Now I must be doubly careful of the bears.
