They just came home. I didn't publish instantly enough.
All my housemates are with their families, and Tracy is watching some kind of sporting event. I'm never alone in the house, and it's strange. One of my housemates got me sea monkeys for Christmas, and after two days, I can finally see them. I was afraid the specks I thought I saw when I squinted were un-activated sea monkey eggs floating in the seaquarium. If I couldn't see them by tomorrow, I planned to go out and buy more without ever telling my housemate, because I knew he'd be upset if the batch he got didn't work out.
A former boss of mine bird-sat once, and the bird died, so she tried the old sitcom trick of replacing it with what appeared to be its exact double. I guess she'd never see a single television show. Of course it didn't work.
Now they're here and visible, so I won't have to try it with my sea family, although I bet I have a better chance of getting away with it. I think my eyes were better the last time I had sea monkeys. (I have sea monkeys. I will alert all recent partners, because it is my ethical duty.)
