Memorial Day weekend rather snuck up on me this year. As a result, it’s quite easy to look back and pick out that one shining moment of spectacular social interaction.

Hmmmm…. I moved Inari to his new tank a little earlier this afternoon. The new tank has a rather vigorous filtering mechanism, which seems to be blasting him about quite a bit.

In tandem with Boy's best friend, was mistaken for both "nice" and "a couple"

"We ate a lot of pizza, drank a lot of beer, and gave exactly zero thought to the possibility of someday being anything other than young, single, unfettered consumers of pizza and beer."
