A slug is a slug is a...housepet?
I walked downstairs to do some laundry this morning to discover a rubbermaid container full of grass and leaves. Darcy turned around and said, "Perrin has a real, real, real worm for a pet!""A worm?!" I asked.
"Well, a snail, maybe" she replied.
Uh oh - the only things that we have around here that fit the description of a worm-snail would be slugs. EEEEWWWW!
