Taal

Quick update:

The fireworks were a b s o l u t e l y a m a z i n g. Fourth of July isn't going to compare. I bet at least 10 million dollars lit up the sky last night. \o/


Last night's mind blowing experience, a Ricardo Caballer Ricasa production. If nothing else, at least check out the first two minutes, and the last minute of the finale.

I cannot wait until next year.



The new 2.5G tank is circulating; Davno's hanging out in her glass bowl next to my mouse pad. All considering, I don't think I've been happier with a tank yet. I can't wait to put her in. ♥

Next up: breaking down the Fluval and 20G tanks and sunning and separating the rocks to dry. Hopefully getting out to Petland to turn in some guppies. Will be trying to transition snails to the 2.5G as I find them. One by one. Woo.

I promise to try and get back to my usual posting and commenting schedule, but please.

This is terribly humbling. It's a your-life-so-far-in-review.

As of typing,

My heart has beaten 1 billion times in my lifetime

on Earth I am 26, on Neptune I am 0
My next birthday on Neptune is in 50,468 Earth days

I've traveled 130,197,320,205 miles through the Milky Way

When I was 2, the black-faced lion tamarin was discovered.
There have been 126 major volcanic eruptions.
Ocean pH has decreased by 0.05

When I was 11, 157 fish species were listed as critical, now 424 are on the brink of extinction.
"There are virtually no Goliath groupers left in the world."

When I was 17, black rhinos were saved from extinction. There population exceeds 3,000.

Upsetting, fascinating. Reminding me how human I am and how much humanity is to blame for all the good and bad that happens in our world.

I want to bookmark this link and revisit it occasionally.
