Events of a Split Second
I saw a deer get hit yesterday.
I was supposed to go to DC, but I had a bad feeling about it. (The deer didn't help any.) So after I had driven about an hour, I turned around and came back.
I didn't see it very clearly, because I was almost past it when it happened, but it seemed to me that the deer didn't look real at the moment of impact. It flew through the air the way a plastic lawn ornament would--frozen in a standing posture, somersaulting in a wide arc over the highway. Absurdly graceful. It seemed like slow motion, but that may be just a trick of my memory.
