I was just doing what any normal raccoon cub would be doing - eagerly eating sweet stuff. I had one of those jumbo four-pound bags of Raisinets (chocolate-covered raisins) sitting next to me near my computer as I was eating them. The bag accidentally flopped over from it's own weight and the entire contents spilled onto the floor. Every single piece spilled out of the bag, because it flopped perfectly upside down. I hate eating anything after it falls on the floor, but this was a nearly full, and quite expensive, bag of Raisinets. I can't waste all those wonderful yummy bits.

Ugh! I managed to get all of them back into the bag. Luckily, it's only 65°F in here at the moment, and the chocolate is pretty hard, so I don't think much, if any, floor dust stuck to it. I came pretty close to saying what it looked like when it happened though. And yes, there were probably a few thousand Raisinets to pick up. Four pounds is an awful lot of them.
