I'm really trying not to spam LJ today, and... I'm doing a very bad job of it.

Anyway. He's not on LJ, so I feel it is doubly important that I alert you to Eric's blog ...of charm and strange, because he is retelling urban legends (*luff*) and you need to see this.

Eric's Urban Legends: "Humans Can Lick, Too"

This one happened to a friend of a friend of a woman I used to work with. She was living alone at the time, just her and her dog, in an apartment downtown. So, one night she was woken up by a strange sound, it sounded like someone was in her apartment or something. But she didn't want to get worked up over nothing, so she put her hand down over the edge of the bed, because she was always reassured when her dog licked her hand. She felt the licking and fell asleep again right away.

The next morning, the woman woke up and screamed -- there was a message written in blood on her wall! It said, "HUMANS CAN LICK, TOO." Frantically, she looked around and couldn't find her dog anywhere. When the police arrived, they told her, "You've never had a dog. What you've been raising all these years was in fact a deranged serial killer pretending to be a dog." So she had to throw out all that dog food.

I'm embarrassed that my first reaction was to shiver and check that the door was locked.

I hope it's okay I added you..I usually let people add me, but I like Days of our Lives, or rather, I like to watch it and make fun of it, and sometimes I post over at Television Without Pity about it...

Wait. So whose blood was it, then? HUH? THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

You rock. I have nothing much to add beyond that.

I think I like the original version better - the sound is a drip-drip-drip noise so she reaches down to the dog for comfort and it licks her hand. The next morning she goes into the bathroom and the dog is hanging from the shower rail with its neck cut open and its blood is going drip-drip-drip. So that explains the noise but what the f**k was licking her hand, she wonders?
