First
I'm in love. Big time love. Girlfriend-moving-in-with-me type love. As a matter of fact, it was my girlfriend crossing a hemisphere to be with me type of love. So, she's here now, and I adore her. Which makes us both happy.

Second
I moved out of my parents' house, finally. After all that whining about how I had to do it, and saying that one day I would; I did it. I moved out to Brooklyn (which is a huge thing, given I am a native of Manhattan). I still refer to meeting up with people in Manhattan as "heading into the city". Man does that piss Brooklyn-ites off.

Third
We bought a hamster, and kittens are next. Our hamster, Samwise, is the ugly-cutest little fuzzball ever. ::Nods:: So we have said, and now it is fact.
