mourning
Internet... guys... I hate to be the bearer of bad news but... well, someone has to tell you.
My loyal companion Fido has perished tragically in the line of duty.
(If by "line of duty" you mean "chilling out in the pool.")
Apparently The Pool Monster (aka the automated robotic pool cleaner that we have) (um, this is a little machine about as big as a bread box that rolls around the inside of our pool, not a humanoid robot that does our bidding, although that would be AWESOME) got him one day and his insides came out. TRAGIC. SO TRAGIC. D: D: D:
So, after pulling him out of the pool and watching him shrink down to regular size (pictures to come), I was too grief stricken to find someone else to defend our pool/possibly take over the entire neighborhood. It was hard to get over Fido, so very hard, but yesterday I was at work and my eyes locked on a new pet and... guys, it was love at first sight.
....
Yes, that is the Incredible Hulk.
Hulk and I are getting along very well so far. I think he's a good fit for our family. Right now he's in the "comical arms and legs" stage of his growth, which means he's progressing along just fine. In about two weeks, maybe less!, I think he'll be ready to move to the pool.
Aw, he's lovely, isn't he? I'm happy he's here to fill the hole that Fido left.
R.I.P. Fido. You'll be missed.
(I didn't put anything there to scale it, but he's about an inch and a half long now.)
Also, for kicks, here is the Pool Monster:

Isn't living in my house ludicrous? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS IN TOWN, GUYS. DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!

PS: Right now PR season 2 is on Bravo and the flower challenge is on, which is also the one with Santino's Tim Gunn impersonation. AWESOME.
