Proof That The Possum Is Not Dead
Posted 31 January 2009 in Random Photographs by Catriona
I came back from grocery shopping this afternoon, and noticed that the possum was sleeping under the floorboards again, but in a different position.
Now, I’m not one to waste the opportunity to demonstrate that the wildlife under my floorboards isn’t actually dead:
Then the chair I was standing on to take the photograph exploded.
This chair:
That wasn’t the most pleasant thing that’s happened to me all day, I must say. Nick took this picture, because the chair and I are no longer on speaking terms.
Then I noticed I could take an equally cute picture of the possum from another angle, an angle in which you can see that they’ve pulled some of the insulation up to use as a pillow:
Nobody can excuse me of being unable to see the silver lining.

i think there’s something going on with the wildlife at your place…first the tweezers go missing and the geckoes are implicated, and then a chair “accidentally” collapses in a possum photography incident. could all these animals be in cahoots with the lizard king perhaps?
not that i’m one for conspiracy theories or anything

Well, don’t think I didn’t have my suspicions about the chair conveniently exploding—it was my first thought, as I lay there among the wreckage. (Well, my second thought. My first thought was “Gee, I’m glad I didn’t land on my camera.”)
But all things said and done, I’d rather not think about the fact that I apparently have telekinetic possums under the floorboards.
