  1. I know a couple people who trained their cats to go in the toilet. I don't think they knew how to flush, though.
  2. Once you get over 100, it doesn't really matter, but I'll take dry heat over heat and humidity any day.
  3. Gills and flippers? Just what we need... a mutant otter I wonder if Pepsi will cure him? It's been the opposite here. Hot and drrryyyyyyy. We actually had a soaking rain last week that did nothing for my brown lawn. I feel like I'm living in the south with the heat and humidity. We also had a week of poor air quality due to smoke from the Canadian wildfires. Thankfully, it's finally getting better. I can't wait for cooler temps, but that's not happening for over a week, when we'll finally get down into the low 80s.
  4. Cia, you are an absolute rock star! Best wishes for a speedy recovery for your husband Is the poll going to close now that the author list is revealed? I love seeing the diverse names on the author list. There's quite a few I am not familiar with. Looks like it's time to explore some new authors!
  5. Wow, that sounds like an amazing trip! Those will be great memories for your nephews I don't have any summer travel plans, but I'm hoping to get chosen for an event in Toronto in October.

    That was my guess too.

    Noooooooo not the cat! Bad Kyle! Kyle totally gives of narcissist/sociopath/psychopath vibes. He doesn't care about anyone except himself. People exist just to fill his needs, despite what he says about Oliver. Poor Oliver when he rejects Kyle. This will not end well for him I think I might know who wrote this.

    Chapter 1

    I wrote a story about an Escape room for one of the anthos ages ago. Based on that story and this story, I will consider it very carefully if ever asked to go to one The creep factor here was off the charts. Just looking a beach gives me the heebie-jeebies. I really felt the tension and did not expect the twist at the end. Well done, SA!

    It's a difficult road sometimes to live life as our authentic selves, and realizing that we only have ourselves to rely on when people betray us. Although Tim has Nanna in his corner, which is awesome. Hopefully Thet will live up to his name at some point in his life. And I totally groaned at the pun.

    Oh wow. This story was quite the gut-punch. I can't imagine living your whole life with the guilt of knowing you caused your little brother's death, even if it was accidental. I loved how Phineas became Markus' guardian angel, and I imagine he disappeared at the end because he was escorting Harold home. Well done, SA.

    Gotta love greed and entitlement. I'm glad bio family got their karma in the end, and that Bruce and Kirby got their HEA. I enjoyed this story.

    Nice twist. I enjoyed the humor of this and the happy ending.

    A murder of crows... 😁 I loved it.

    London Bridge is falling down... And East Karjackistan. I have an author in mind, so we'll see if they're on Cia's list 😁

    Oh my... I had a specific author in mind for a different story, but now I think I may have to change my mind. That was... hilariously twisted

    I'm with Luca on the motion sickness. All I have to do is look at a boat and I'll puke I'm glad they were able to reveal their true feelings for each other. I really hope they make it to shore.

    Short and sweet. I totally get that group of friends. Cute story!

    Horses are amazing creatures. You should definitely give them a try

    I think the fences around mini golf courses are there as a challenge

    Chapter 3

    The Tor is an amazing experience! We definitely planned on climbing it at least once, figuring on later in the trip. I was not able to do a lot of conditioning to get myself in shape for the trip, so was worried about how I would handle it. So when did we actually go? The first night, of course! After the long flight, on 2 days with minimal sleep, and in the early evening on the day of the eclipse. And. I. Did. It. Took a while to get to the top, but I freaking made it. It's one of the proudest achievements of my life! There were so many people there, celebrating the eclipse. It truly was a magical experience. The town itself has an energy to it, not found here. I could go on and on, but I'll stop now. If you do end up going, be sure to visit the Abbey too.

    Chapter 3

    The title and King Arthur connection was definitely deliberate. I spent two weeks last year in Glastonbury, England, which is steeped in Arthurian legend and lore. Fascinating place which I highly recommend visiting. And yeah, the boyfriend can totally stay away

    As much as I love homemade mac and cheese, nothing beats the comfort of good ol' Kraft Dinner. With extra butter, of course
