Hanging
Monday, May 28th, 2007Welcome to the Hollow Possum! I haven’t quite figured out what this site is going to be yet. I really don’t have much going on, I’m just a stay at home mom (but I used to be a librarian) who has recently moved from the East Coast to the Midwest. Talk about culture shock.
What the hell is a Hollow Possum???
Well one day, Husband called me up on his cell phone. He was doing yard work and had to go into the garage.
”Honey, there’s something dead in here, but I don’t know what kind of animal it is. Could you come and check it out?”
”Sure, I’ll be right down.”
So I run downstairs quickly and notice that we did, indeed, have a dead animal in our garage and it was a possum. Apparently it had run in there unnoticed by us and we locked it in. It tried like hell to get out, too. But since we rarely ever went into the garage, it stayed in there for a long time and curled up and died. By the time we found it, it was so decomposed that it was hollow, hence the name Hollow Possum. I thought that Hollow Possum would be a good name for something like a bar or a ranch. Since I’ll never own either one of those things, I had to settle on naming my blog Hollow Possum.
Great story, I know.
