I have got *THE CLEANEST*

Hermit crabs in the world as of this minute! Yep, I ran them through the washing machine.

I didn't mean to, I suspect they crawled from their perfectly humidified habitat onto something of Howie's which I snatched up and threw in the washing machine - because - WELL, COME ON, HE'S A BOY, if he looks at clean clothes, they turn dirty!

So as I moved the clothes from the washer to the dryer, I noticed a few claws - and as I took them out of the dryer, I noticed some PINK claws - and shells, even.

I did look for the crabs yesterday and figured they dug a hole to molt or something.

They've been given a proper burial in the lint garbage. May they rest in pieces.

(Uh, no, I didn't take pictures - what kind of sicko do you think I am, anyway?)

First it's teri le's deer feet, and now it's your dismembered hermit crabs.

As of today, I am declaring myself meat-free. *urp*

You've got crabs!! For some reason, that made me laugh. Yah, my mind always goes there.

ROFL....*sigh* Oh...poor crabs. But for some reason that whole darn post made me laugh. We don't have pets, and my boys have yet to put live things in their pockets, but I am dreading the day I find a surprise like that in my dryer.
