“Happy birthday to MEEEEEEEEEE!” -Chaos
And now he’s 16 years old. Ack! (Please don’t try to count his teeth – I can’t remember how many he had pulled…)
I was running heat in the morning and air in the afternoon for a few days.
Happy birthday, Chaos! You don’t look a day over 10.
Interesting about the wasabi/horseradish. Larry hates anything spicy, but he loves cocktail sauce with lots of horseradish, so I always get the extra-spicy.
Happy birthday to Chaos!
I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but there’s a speedrun of the Untitled Goose Game. But there are clips and glitches, so don’t expect to see the whole game. 🙂
Love the Gaiman quote from the Newbery’s. And the sound of the sun. And I really need to find ways that I enjoy to be still / more mindful / actively de-stress. Thanks for the link and the reminder.

16 is so venerable! I am so glad Chaos is here for another trip around the sun.
Omg,16!! 😀
