Erm… Um…*blush*… And in what I hope is a completely unrelated tidbit, a reader found xir way here yesterday by googling the phrase “What disease makes you rhyme?” Answer? I don’t know, but if any of you find out, and it turns out there’s a treatment? Keep it to yourself.

Cuttlefish Spotted In The Wild
Yay, a milestone! The first pic of a Cuttlefish sticker on the car of a reader! Thanks, niftyatheist! I wonder if I will ever see one on the car in front of me in traffic. Pic, after the jump:

The Genuine Article
EvolveFISH’s Gavin sends a pic of the actual Cuttlefish sticker–alongside one of their more traditional designs, for a sense of scale. On their site, I very much preferred the black sticker; seeing the white one here, I am wavering. Pic after the jump:

How Did I Miss This?!?!?
Today was, I just found out moments ago, National Donut (or Doughnut) Day, here in the US. How I missed it, though, is easily answered: I spent most of the day waiting while cars were repaired, to the tune of more money that I would have hoped for. Blech. So none of that! On to …
