A Dramatic Contest in the Night
The back patio light, which has a motion-sensor, came on - so my son opened the door to see what had set it off. A raccoon had just climbed up one of the plastic chairs and was reaching for for a mug my husband had forgotten on the patio table.
Raccoon(seeing my son and putting a firm paw on the mug possessively): GROWL!
Son: GROWWWWLLL!
Raccoon: GROwwwwl?
Son: GROOWWWWWLLLL!!!
Raccoon: growl...
Son: GRRRROOOOWWWWWLLL!!!
Raccoon: 0.o
My son wins the rights to the mug; the defeated challenger scampers off into the dark.
