Cute. Is it yours?

European Man: Cute, is it yours?
Me: It's a raccoon!
European Man: It's cute.
Me: It probably has rabies!
European Man: Yeah (he smiles and walks away).

This is my life. Today, the raccoon featured above sidled up to me and I freaked out. It was about a foot and a half away from me before jumping into a garbage can. It wasn 't scared at all. Between freaking out and having people laugh at me (I'm assuming they were, as they weren't helping me!), I managed to take a photo of it. Harold and Kumar flashbacks...

This only happens to me.
