Conversation while feeding Roscoe
me: Their mouths are shaped like that because they eat insects from the surface of the water.
dave: You know, I think you have a little bit of your uncle in you.
me: If I had a little bit of my uncle in me, he'd be skewered on a pin in a display box by now*. Roscoe's mouth makes him look so grumpy.
dave: He's perfect for this family.
me: What do you mean?
dave: He's a grumpy loner.
*My uncle's a biologist who collects insects. "Ewwwww!" has been my official take on his hobby since the age of five.
