    Parenthood...

    You're totally right, crimzy! Those are the memories you will think of years from now! Gotta remember to take the time to enjoy those little things.

    Don't laugh, 0.2 miles -- yes, there is a decimal in there.

    Ugh, Work Troubles

    This reminds me of exactly why I dropped out of computer science. Good luck, and I hope it isn't too stressful for you all!

    Bicolor Blenny reef compatability

    I've heard they are hit or miss as well too. Mine hasn't touched anything, but I have only had him a month or so and only have softies, so take that for what it's worth. He is, by far, my favorite fish though. He's always either just perched and hanging out or picking at the rocks.

I know that is readily available at hardware and home improvement stores, and it...

    ugggg, well I guess its time

    That's too bad, Teresa. Sometimes we need a kick in the pants to get something done though, so try to look at the positive that you can do what you want with your sump now. Hopefully it won't be as much of a pain in the behind as you think. Good luck!
