Little bit of good news, one bit of bad news...
Well, good news was the sushi was very good. I ordered a 12-piece nigiri-sushi plate, and it had tuna (of course), salmon, eel, shrimp, octopus, and a few others I didn't recognize. The ones I didn't recognize were red snapper (which I've had, but forgot that's what it looks like), some sort of clam with half red flesh and half white flesh (thought

I'm glad there's no ill feelings, though - some people just don't know how to handle them. And they're WAY quicker than most pet rodents.
Also - GAH!!!! The Catacombs!!!! I'm envious!!
And a little homesick, kinda sorta - I miss toronto!!!
Have fun :)

Thanks... Yeah, one of the problems with owning small animals and cats in the same household...
Regarding the location, looks like I was incorrect -- as it turns out, it was actually The Vatikan, rather than The Catacombs. (Apparantly The Catacombs was closed, but then re-opened as The Vatikan. My misunderstanding was that the evening was supposed to be called "Return to the Catacombs", playing a lot of older music, but that's not what happened.) This night out ended up being basically a bust; there really weren't that many people there, but the music was ok. Played a few industrial tracks, and then played a couple of requests. The owner of the place had a whippet running around, and we spoke to him for a couple minutes before we left, talking about rescuing dogs. So, the night ended on a high note, anyway, and not just because my little girl and I were in agreement that we needed to take the redhead home. ;-)

Yeah... Thanks, guys...
(And at the moment, we're stuck at the Lewiston-Queenston bridge... It's taken us about an hour to go about a kilometer... And we still have another few hundred meters to go...)

The kids did take it pretty hard, which was expected. We had a burial in the back yard behind the shed last night. (It's a large back yard, with the property line going back a couple hundred feet.)
They did get over it quickly, but they will occasionally remember that Kyo is gone. They both still make comments about missing either the greyhound which passed a couple years ago, or the hamster which passed last year.
The daughter indicated yesterday she wanted another Kyo, but we'll hold off on that for a while... We're not sure how well another gerbil from a different brood would interact with Yuki and Shigure... Maybe it's just best to stay at two... They're social animals, and two would be ok...
