After work today I ran errands, and lots of them. It's fun poking about in new parts of the city looking for stuff. And slightly tragic that I'm tempted by the sandpaper isle of the Home Depot and the cable crimping tools - I suspect that I'm not so much a handyman as I am a collector of tools and gadgets.

Three good things that happened today:

1. Found a $10 battery tester

2. Found a new clown pleco (in our neighbourhood!)

3. Kenny's learned to write his name
