Anyone got the witch's email? It's busy season at work and I'd love to be all, "Hi, [MANAGER'S NAME]. Yeah, can't work Today. Probably not tomorrow. Witch turned me 'to a frog. I mean RIBBIT."
Witch: *turns me into a frog* now suffer

Me: *chilling on a leaf*

Witch: wait

Me: *experiencing happiness for the first time in my life*

Witch: Wait no

Our boy Max often uses his potty button to trick us into taking him outside, and then instead of actually using the bathroom, goes straight to his poolside lounging rug or bench.
