By the by, one of the unexpected bright spots of my temporary existence here is my sister's family's boxer, Chevy. He is basically a giant version of Smeagol. I totally adore him and we sit and cuddle while I work on the computer. He is just a big snuggly bunny and I love him to pieces.

In other news, today is Smeagol's 4th birthday and I am missing it. WAHHHHH!
