not pets.

Ooops. I forgot to post yesterday. No matter. Maybe I’ll post more than once today, to make up for it. I had a lovely day yesterday. I went to a party in the bush, at the housewarming of two of my favorite people, CJ and Brent. I carpooled out with two lovely people, and back with a different lovely person (none of whom have handy links, as far as I know). I talked to lovely people and I looked at lovely views, I was involved in sarcastic and witty conversation, I looked at their amazing new house, but most of all, I got to actually look at CJ’s face, instead of just photos of her, and to marvel at her awesome belly. It was Lovely. and I Didn’t Post. And that is all.

So! Have some tiny people!
