Department Of Wit - Almost Ready To Do My Taxes!

OK, OK, OK, done. Let’s do this. Except I think I left the back door open. Just gotta check.

Wait. Is that caterpillar trying to cross the windowsill? I have to see this. I definitely need to check out this scene, and it’s definitely going to take me 45 minutes of just staring at this caterpillar and watching it rear up and wave its little arms around like a tiny emperor. Maybe I should put it on my finger. Maybe I should just pop it into my mouth. Ha!
