Before my eyes adjusted to the bright light, I initially thought it was a snake (hence the almost-shrieking part). But the truth is unsettling, nonetheless. How does that even happen? If a slug can make it's way into my bathroom, I'm no longer surprised about all of the prehistorically huge spiders we find.
I called Doug from the other room for reinforcement, but he refused to touch it with his bare hands and was planning to kill it, so I had to rescue him by my lonesome. Long-gone are the days when I was flighty enough to lick one.
And now for something completely different... My adorable baby girl. If I don't keep a close eye on her, she still falls asleep curled up in odd places during the course of the afternoon/ early evening and then stays up until all hours of the night. But I love her little pouty lips and the baby freckles trailing across her little nose... And the fact that she still loves her Bun-Bun as much as when she really was still my baby girl.

wow, I had shivers at the beginning then felt complete peace by the end of your post. what a writer! thanks for keeping us on our toes.
I can totally relate to the nap=late night...although Clark will fall asleep in the car. Grrrr!!
We had two of those last year in our kitchen. One on the floor and, a couple weeks later, one in a pot in the cupboard. I was wondering the SAME thing - how the heck do they get in our house?? They are huge, and slow! Gross!!
p.s. If I failed the word verification with the handicapped sign next to it, does that mean I'm handicapped?
AAAh!!!! I'm sure I would have actually shrieked. I wonder how that happens? I found an earwig running around on my kitchen counter last night and was trying to figure out how it would get there, but they're much faster than slugs...eeww!
OK, that is thoroughly disgusting. And HUGE!
Being the bug expert that I am, I had to take a close look at your pic. Gross! Maybe I should quit complaining about my spiders...
Ah, the great northwest! I so do not miss slugs at all. And dude: you LICKED one? What?!
Absolutely precious picture of sweet Evie.
