Love, a Many Splintered Thing
But damn if anyone gives two hoots that you managed, in a single, insignificant motion, to firmly embed a microscopic bit of plunger handle into the side of your middle finger while trying to sink oversized golden retriever excrement into the toilet without flooding the bathroom! Nope. Zero hoots.
Witchy Woman
Before long, I was curing all of the neighborhood boys with plantain and dandelions. Have a cold? Eat a flower!
