It was hot today. I had a couple of errands to run so I go outside to start up the vehicle to get the a/c going before I load up the kids. I happen to take notice as I get the vehicle running that there was a little frog in the part where the door hinges onto the frame. It saw me, pissed itself and scrambled to get to cover. It was a little frog, but big enough to where if it jumped on me I'd do those jerky movements you do to get something like a spider or a creepy insect off of you. I don't know where it was going, but I was not going to try and catch it! I slowly closed the door leaving it slightly ajar in hopes that the frog would make it's escape. I also didn't want to crush it and have to look at frog guts every time I open my door.
I load up the kids and headed out to run the errands.
2 1/2 hours later I'm sitting at a light waiting to make a left turn. Who do I see climbing up onto the side window visor? None other than the little frog. The little bastard been getting chauffeured all around town and did not pitch in the first dime towards gas!
I made the left turn and began to accelerate. "Hold on!" I shouted to the frog. I could see his little froggie grip tighten on the window visor. I may have gotten up to 30-35 mph when I saw one of his little legs lose grip, then I saw a little froggie body flash by my side window, then he was gone. I sure hope he landed in that grass 'cause if he hit that road, he dead...
I guess I was like that douchebag guy in The Goonies with the mustang that held a little girl bike riding Josh Brolin to the side of his car, accelerated to a high rate of speed and let dude go down that hill through trees and shyt. I did have two chicks with me in the car. One was eating a piece of candy, the other drinking a bottle of the good stuff, both strapped into their car seats. I don't think the frog will go on a misadventure and end up saving everyone's home with a marble bag full of precious gems. No, the frog's... probably dead. Or maybe it did some Frogger type shyt... No, I'm pretty sure it's dead.
