Everyone welcome Bates, the Betta-fish, a new member of our household. I was debating on what to name him but missed the obvious, thanks to a friend he got a name on his first day here. He looks a little orange in the picture for some reason, but he's a lovely shade of Caniac/blood-red, and every bit as pretty as his namesake. It was either another ratty-rat or a fish, and I decided I'm more likely to have friends willing to tend to a fishy.

Tonight, since the dogs don't seem to want to play today despite the great breezy cool weather, I guess we'll go catch some grub somewhere.
