The last couple of days

So my super cool pet isn't as cool anymore. It pupated and is now a light brown color. The chrysalis is still pretty interesting looking but nowhere near the previous level of nifftyness.

In other news I got a new skill on bars. Yay me. Its called an uprise. At the same time as the uprise I also got my first rip in a year or so. I was going to take a picture but it stopped bleeding. It just wasn't as impressive after it started to dry out.

On the same day I got an uprise, and a rip, the power brakes in the van went out. That was scary. I was driving down a hill at the time and discovered that I couldn't depress the brake pedal. I managed to push down hard enough to get it to slow a bit and basically coasted it to the car fixer people. I think it may be time to get rid of the van. But if we do that I will definitely miss having a car.
