Seabiscuit

So the other day here was my Wal-Mart shopping list:

1. shoe laces

I was playing ball a weekish ago and couldn't figure out why whenever I jumped I came down shoeless...

2. yoghurt

(here in China there is a rather obnoxious "h", kind of like a literary zit)

3. a fish

Johnny Yuma (my loyal turtle) needs two things: companionship and a tank cleaning mechanism, so I thought I could kill two birds with one fish. He's a little black fella I named Seabiscuit. He cost 3 qui (40 cents).

Probably the first and last time in my life that I scribble out a shopping list like this...
