Why did the turkey cross the road?


I wish it were an April Fool's joke! 
On my way to school, to drop the kids off - he darts across the road and I hit him straight on... 
I kept driving, waiting for him to fall off... I stopped, walked gingerly to the front of the car (thought he might jump up and claw my eyes out) and tried to pull him off the car. Saw that his head was wedged into my grill (took a picture, cause I didn't think anyone would believe my story) and popped the hood.  He fell onto the ground and after I was sure he wasn't going to jump up and run after me, I grabbed a napkin from my glove compartment and drug him to the side of the road.  
I thought (for a split second) about putting him in the back of my van, 
because I KNOW that is what Jared would've wanted me to do and turkey is yummy, 
but then again, I didn't want to deal with the blood on my carpet.  Too bad I wasn't driving a truck... 
(insert here:  "... you might be a redneck.")

It made me giggle when I wrote down the excuse for my children being tardy to school though... 
Reason for Tardiness:  Hit a Turkey. 
:-D
