Death and the Maiden, Part II

On the drive out to Hamilton Pool, The Man and I saw a dead deer. He murmured something about it to me so as not to excite the older girl too much. But, it came out later in the day that he and I had, in fact, seen this large, dead, animal, and had failed to alert her.

The Older Girl: "On the way home, will you show it to me?"

Me: "Well, if I see it...it was kind of hard to see, we'll be on a highway and have to go fast, I don't know if I remember exactly where it was, blah blah BS stuff."

TOG: *sigh* "I really hope I get to see it."

Me: "Hmmmm....maybe if you're VERY LUCKY."
