CarrollBlog 1.30

She told me a story I've never forgotten: She was on a sailboat with her boyfriend in the Aegean. It was so hot that every night they slept out on deck. One night she awoke because she felt something moving around in her hair. Reaching up she touched something fat, firm and alive. It bit her: a rat that had gotten ensnared in her very long hair. The best part of the story was when I asked what the hell she did then, she said quietly, "I coaxed it out."
