Feels like Halloween is over already. Took a trip to Old Navy yesterday (yes, I know, I know, I’m going to hell) and they had NO Halloween stuff left. None. Instead, they had Christmas stuff. WTF? That’s not right, I tell you.

On Saturday, we swung by the Open Center for Kris‘ gallery opening, then to Dojo for a nibble, and then home, effectively skipping out on four of the four remaining parties we had invites to. Again, WTF?

We’re tired. It’s been a long year. I’m knitting another hat to wind down. Actually, there’s more to it than that (the hat making, I mean), but I’ll let it ride.

Behold, the top ten creepy pets. Giant African land snails are not allowed inside the country due to their potential as a “devastating invasive species.” Oh, my. Let that blow your mind.

Speaking of creepy animal stories, did anyone hear This American Life this week? Rabid racoons are the stuff that nightmares are made of.
