Slugs again

On my way back to campus today, I happened upon a slug sitting near the edge of the sidewalk. It was sitting there, moving it's head back and forth in a vaguely confused way. I watched as it sat there, contemplating its next move. When I came back an hour later, it was still sitting on the sidewalk, but was on the edge of the grass, and slowly inching forward. I think the slug made the right choice. If only all decisions were so simple. Not that I would want to be a slug. That wouldn't be much fun at all.
