We’ve added two pearscales to the aquarium. Meet Princess Miyako and Princess Osagi. We plucked those names out of the air. When I later googled Osagi and Miyako, we found that Osagi is the acronym for the UN’s Office of the Special Adviser on Gender Issues and Advancement of Women, and Miyako is a popular name for japanese restaurants. Guess which fish C had picked and which one I did? These fish were meant for us.

Long live comics.
Cloned dogs have puppies! It wasn’t too long ago that we thought clones couldn’t reproduce. I hope this lot survive.
Fish news – C went happy shopping for aquarium stuff last night. Maybe I’ll post a new pic.
