Yeah, probably good that they just told it to you, straight. I'm sorry, mate. I wish wisdom and peace to you and all those who love you.

Well, I've learned a few things, thanks to you good people.

Axolotls are native to Mexico (that much I knew)..native to only three lakes there originally, and now it's down to one. They are a type of salamander. They aren't cannibalistic by nature, but they live on on the bottom of the lake and evolved in such a way -- due to the darkness and mud and such -- that they don't see well and are liable to *mistake* each other for food. But you were right, Anna (Discolored), they are solitary creatures and feel no need for company. It's true they're a bit high-maintenance, but nothing I think wouldn't be doable. It's been fun doing the research.

Right now I probably don't have the space needed for a tank (they require a large one) but it's something to look forward to.

Thanks again, y'all.

Waiting and watching.

A soft chuckle escaped and a gentle shrug lifted her shoulders

"That depends.
Not that either won't get you there however one may be a bit quicker journey then the other.

Yummy or ballsy?

Admittedly ballsy would go MUCH better with a beer"

hmmm....
pours a couple of fingers, then splashes a bit more into the glass, and takes a seat...

Gotta be fast when out with her.
Nods and moves with you over to the booth near the pool tables.
Easing into the booth and then relaxing.
A wave of hand to get the attention of the waitress.
What are you thinking? as far as the shots go?
I was curious as I sat across from you .

See you were ahead of the game.
When she'd moved in she hadn't a clue.
But then she had nothing to put in the place either.
That flea market IS a really handy place for a girl on a budget.
But isn't most everyone these days?
No?
Oh... never mind then.

Wait she was gonna do that!
Meaning catch the cover.
Damn you're quick on the draw!

As arms linked her eyes slid around the place

"Booth near the pool tables?"

are you still looking

what are you looking for

rt is what it is
be safe !

We stopped by where I am currently staying so I could shower and change before we came out to celebrate tonight.
The place is amazing, and I figured out where I would place everything, plus I was going to live right next to you which was a plus!
I laughed as I pulled the door open and you chimed in about not being able to afford the bubbly.
I'm not a huge fan, so no worries a beer and a shot works for me.
Flash of ID and cover paid for the both of us.
Bar or booth?
Asked as I hooked your arm with mine and strolled into the joint.

got to run, sorry

Hello beautiful

All in all?
It had been a great day.
And now it was time to celebrate a little.

Perhaps it should come AFTER everything that's sure to come with the undertaking Monroe has quite happily gotten herself into!

A glide of eyes with her as she'd headed in the door ahead of me.

But... Nah.

This is a celebration in the fact that she IS right where she wants to be...
Or will be at some point fairly soon-ish.
Hopefully.

"Ummmm I can't afford champagne sooooo ..."

One of those pauses that seem to irritate you and then

"How about a shot and a beer instead?"
