The summer before I started grad school, I was in Ann Arbor for this nifty side benefit of a fellowship I have where I got paid like six grand to hang out and go to workshops every week and could take a class for free. (I took intensive German.)<br /><br />Anyway, I subletted from one of my colleagues who owned a pet snake at the time, as well as two cats. (Lord Hissworth has since passed on to the great terrarium in the sky.) I had to feed him dead baby mice every 10 day or so - these were kept in a paper bag in the freezer. (I called them micicles.) You were supposed to soak them in hot water to thaw them out and warm them up, and they would turn transparent. Their skin, at least.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460254031729129002noreply@blogger.com
