A thirty-eight-a-pede

Judy Evans @JudyEv (382658) • Rockingham, Australia 20 Jun 22

i went through the looking-glass

Elizabeth @Poppylicious (11134) • United Kingdom 30 May 16

And what I saw there was beautiful, in a nonsensical and ridiculously quirky way. There is a lot to learn from Alice and her many adventures, even in contemporary times. Lewis Carroll was ahead of his times in many respects. But...

loujac3 @loujac3 (1188) • United States 23 Apr 07

I took my dog for a long walk yesterday and he was in and out of the weeds. I use a tick and flea medication on him but it only works if the tick or flea bites him. Now you must understand, I let my dog sleep in my bed with me...

Nearly drank a live spider!

muscare @muscare (3068) • Australia 14 Apr 07

I use to have a habit of leaving a glass of water on the bedside table. One night, I sleepily reached for it, started drinking and felt something tickle my upper lip. I quickly turned on the bedside lamp to find a huntsman spider,...
