Reading this cemented why I probably will not go see Wall-E.

I forgot how much fun it can be to throw around a frisbee with friends on a gorgeous summer evening. Thanks guys.

I got to do something today that I haven’t had the chance to do for quite some time, what with camping on my days off last week, and running around on Wednesday this week. Today, I napped on the couch with my kitty for a few hours. We snuggled and purred and loved each other [...]
