We've made it to South Dakota, to hang with our buddy Squeeji. We'll probably be here a few days (she wants us to stay for her graduation and we might go see Iron Man this weekend), mostly to wait for some more money to come through.

The drive so far hasn't been bad. It's been a drive. We've stopped twice and, unfortunately, lost two of our brood. Our tiny dwarf rat, S'mores (who was old to begin with) and our bearded dragon, Taylor. The latter we're most confused about, because he's only four or five years old (they can live to be fifteen plus). But, well, there's not a whole lot that can be done at this point. Sadly.

But all the other critterlings are doing well.

We'll be back in Ohio...sometime. XD We're not rushing or trying to bust our asses to get there now that we're in SD at the moment. But I am eager to get home, on account of the fact I get to decorate a house!! :D
