Giant Squirrel Invasion In Toronto!
Wednesday, April 1, 2009 at 8:00AM
So I woke up this morning and sleepily went downstairs to get some breakfast, but something caught my eye as I passed the living room, so I turned....and then saw THIS:
At first I just stood there, blinking like a cartoon character, wondering if I was still asleep.
I went into the kitchen, where two more Evil Squirrels peered in:
And another as I headed down toward my office:
Jeff's still asleep, so I'm here trying to figure out who was responsible. Hmmm....someone who knew our house well enough to cut each squirrel picture to fit our windows ALMOST EXACTLY. Someone who rarely sleeps like a normal person so was able to drive up to our house and sneak around at 2 or 3 am when everyone else is asleep.
Someone who has played April Fool's and other scarily well-planned jokes on us before, maybe?
And someone who is, without a doubt, unaware that my capacity for seeking creative retribution is unmatched...

That is extremely funny. And the squirrels are so cute too!
Ahahahaha XD
Whoever did that is my hero.
Ah Walter Walter Walter. When will you ever learn? :D (But you're still my hero too. ;))
Ahhhhh - such cute little critters! You must have been soooo happy to see them!!!
Nobody outpranks the Debbie. (Is that a real word?) I can't wait to hear what you did to top that one.
See you Friday.
I think it was the squirrel rebellion myself.
*shivers*
Can you give me enough time to leave town with the children (think of the children!) before you exact your revenge? I worry about the range effect of whatever you're planning...
A kudo and a congratulation to the perpetrator! Now s/he better send flowers and a spa day. (Right, Debbie?)
How Awesome!!!!! :-D I think I saw this movie. "Revenge of the Giant 10 foot Squirrel" :-D I bow down to Walter and am not worthy !!!! :-D
See you all at FKO
Hahahaha, that is awesome!!
Whoever it is, is pretty freakin' cool. You got some awesome friends, Debbie. Hail to the mighty squirrel!
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA that's AWESOME.
I just want to state for the record that I had nothing to do with this.
Amazing and wonderful!
That is hilarious... touché to whomever did this - you are my idol!!
those are great images i'd love to have for a classroom or even my garden closet!
i happen to not be afraid of squirrels, just fish for some irrational reason.
i'd offer to come get them but i cannot as i'm recovering from surgery. and no, it wasn't from being attacked by a squirrel.
Wow. Remind me to never visit Cuesta Park. I had no idea the squirrels were so vicious there.
How to lure to Pickering: Re-paint an Oscar Meyer car to look like a peanut. Drive to Pickering. Duct tape gas petal and steering wheel in place. Jump out. Watch squirrels get fried.
The evidence of previous pranks is inadmissible evidence - I stand by the axiom of innocent until proven guilty! These postulations about my involvement are unfounded!!! ... Hmm... what's that you say ... I have no idea how that blue tape got on my jacket.....
Happy April Fools' Day Debbie!!!
Your friends are so much cooler than my friends.
Oh, that's good. That's very, VERY good...
