What they didn't know is that the local taxidermist had finally found the perfect trophy wife.

It's so bad I've got The Handsome Family's FAR FROM ANY ROAD on repeat. Which means Nic Pizzolatto is my new writer hero. I have GALVESTON, which I started last night. My sox are gone, knocked off into the next century I believe. Not sure when I'll recover them.
