ouch..

just a slight warning if you, like me, have loose knees that scramble about aimlessly under the skin if leg is wiggled around too loosely: don't samba in the livingroom at 11 a.m., no matter how fun the song is. it. will. hurt.
and despite this i managed to rescue a wayward snail trapped in a bag of lettuce in my refrigerator. the snail managed to travel from my aunts garden and keep alive in our fridge for several days before discovery. i'm very thankful it chose occupancy in the lettuce meant for our birds and not the bag of lettuce meant for my own belly. i tricked the snail into a little plastic jar with the aid of some lettuce -- though you would think the snail'd be sick of it by then -- and carried outside where i found a nice spot to scoop it out.
i'm so nice. nicer than my mother for sure -- she suggested i throw it to our birds for a snack. i love our birds, but if they want snails for snacks, they need to catch them on their own and that's that.
hmm. more later. i'm distracted.
