We also don't count times she tried to bite/swipe but we moved our hand out of the way quicker than she could get to it, so it's not 3 months without attempts, just 3 months without successes. Still, for someone once labelled a Grumpy Cat, it's a big improvement!

I can confirm that if you order a #Milo McFlurry from McDonald's with 5x the amount of Milo, it comes with what I consider the correct amount of Milo to put on your ice cream.

SO MUCH MILO

Happy Mol Day! :D

(Confused? At 6:22 today it was 6:22 10/23. 1 mol, a chemistry constant, is 6.022e23. Yes it's reaching. Yes I'm THAT much of a nerd :p )

Also taking the opportunity to pimp that this nerd owns the domain name 6.022e23.com

I just saw a car done up like the Dukes of Hazzard General Lee.

It drove right in front of me.

I believe today, of all days, it's hip to be square. #mathnerd
