Speaking of dead things...
I saw a pretty much intact dead armadillo on the side of the road today. Alex wanted me to stop and bring it home, but then we realized that they're nocturnal, so it must have been in the 100° heat all day. Maybe well see one at night some time (I would say the population seems to be growing, but since I've only seen dead ones so far, that really might not be the case), I really want a dead armadillo.
