As Brandon said, we're back from our lovely weekend trip. I had a wonderful birthday, and Brandon did everything possible to make it perfect. I love him so much, and I'm very thankful for him. San Francisco was great- we got to see a lot of stuff and enjoy quite a few crazy people. You just can't get the good crazy people outside of the city. Anyway, now we're back to work and the usual routine. Actually, that's not true. No, Brandon's working late for the first time ever I believe, and I'm doing laundry before 7 pm. I'm also doing the dishes. Well, okay, the dishwasher is. It still counts. I'm also trying to decide whether to watch The Simpsons DVD or SpongeBob.

Lord Byron is dozing in his tunnel. Brandon and I decided on our vacation to get a second hamster to punish Lord Byron for not loving us. We're going to name it a name more noble than Lord Byron, like King Edward or something. After all, two hamsters can't hide in the tunnel at once. One of them will have to learn to like us.
