Hello luv, just wanted to let you know that I've been press-ganged into helping Damon rescue his rather dull brother from an annoying immortal vampire-wizard. I've been assured by my good friend that we're not going to die, so I'll see you soon!

Sitting late at work with the newborn lion cam up on the monitor and getting ready to watch a livestream of scientists dissecting a colossal squid on my tablet while going through the start of my correspondence school work. I think this is definitely the way to do it. Technology got awesome in the last twelve years.

Squid facts:
Squids and octopi separated at about the same time as birds and reptiles.
Colossal squids are only 2-3mm when born but get bigger than 5m as adults.
You can tell their age by rings in some of the hard parts, just like trees, but no one's exactly sure how often the rings form.

Squid brains are shaped like donuts and the esophagus (food pipe) is a bit wider than your thumb and goes straight through the middle hole of the brain. They use their beaks to make food small enough to fit through.

Oh hey, who wants to see a squid beak?

Because my week hasn’t been fucked up enough and now I have to deal with this. I’m still not too sure that this is even real. How the fuck do I get back home?

Are you up for a double date?

Where is she?
