But all the werewolves in Florida have been killed by invasive boas.

YOU NEVER FIND OUT. IT’S STILL OUT THERE.

Beyoncé the Giant Metal Chicken would like a word.

This is it. This is the one. My favorite scary story for 2018. Because it WAS scary! I can only imagine the terror that teacher and the kids experienced prior to realizing it was just a big misunderstanding! It ends with humor and romance and probably s’mores around a campfire. I just love, love, love this story.

I thought about reaching in to feel for the bottom...

Oh yes yes yes. That’s the one.

Two things.

What was the US version of the Descent?

I KNOOOOOOW! There is so much drama in that little snippet of life!

I hate myself for laughing so fucking hard at that comment.

You. Will. LOVE it. I consider myself to be the “cool aunt” of all pets, and there are few experiences better than showing up at a house and being love bombed by the critters I’m sitting. I hope you can make it happen!

And they always love being with their humans--I have a number of once-a-year gigs and the dogs always remember me when I come back, even…

I work from home and do the occasional petsitting gig, and it just drives me nuts when the people say “Oh, we leave Spot alone inside all day and he’s fine.” Uh, no. Spot is NOT fine. He may put up with it, but dogs are social and leaving them alone all freakin’ day stresses them. When I petsit, the dog is with me…

You’re right, and I just hate the fact that’s the way things are right now.

No doubt. And that’s just infuriating to me.

That “not all compensation has to be monetary” angle reminds me of a story. I have a number of friends who are artists, and at one time or another they have all been asked to donate their work to charity auctions. The (rich) auction coordinators all say the same thing — “Your payment is exposure. There will be a lot…
