Damned Dead Raccoon

The crusty snow crunched under feet as Marv and his kids went to the garage. School had not been canceled and the kids grumbled all the way to the car, just as they had all morning since learning the news. "I don't get it, all the other schools are canceled today!" said Vic, the oldest of Marcus' two kids. The daughter spoke up "Vic, don't be too sad. We have pizza for lunch today!" Amy was almost always happy, and despite her early grumbling, she decided to move on, as always.
