Check out this lj community. It's purpose is to systematically determine the best thing ever. Fantastic.

Dany likes the yard, but we think she might have poison ivy. She is always very itchy.
My job is cool thus far. The hours are COMPLETELY OPEN. If I wanted to, I could come in to work from 9PM to 2AM. I would probably get lonely though so I just come in normal hours so there are at least some people around. If I don't have anything I need to do, I don't have to come in, or I can leave early. It's pretty awesome. I assume once I have classes I will be leaving lab "early" to go do homework or read papers, but for the summer, it's pretty darn relaxing. :)
Our house/apt is awesome. I will have to find a way to put some pictures of it up.
