dear diary,

the other day a baby skunk was trapped in one of the wells around the basement windows! it was raining. the skunk seemed nice. we already knew there was at least one skunk around because i caught a glimpse of one much bigger than this one looked. we named the big one i, skunkius. so we can only assume the baby was i, skunkius, jr. anyway, i.s.j. was trapped. so we put a pottery barn spice rack down the well, angled so he could climb it to get out! which he apparently did. now we call that spice rack the skunk ladder.

love,

elizabeth

okay, maybe the best story ever. i can't think of anything that tops a skunk ladder.
