Today's blog: A Short Story

Once upon a time there was a tiny tiger with too many teeth. Then one day he lost all of his teeth, and so a bunch of engineers invented screws with laser microtexturing that fit right into the gums and had zirconium teeth coated with enamel so they were very strong and not cytotoxic and they looked just like his old teeth, only better and more expensive. Then he spent a lot too many hours trying to get wire mesh to fit inside of a poorly constructed solar oven. He was very grumpy. But then he finished writing his funding application, and so he expected to be much happier, but surprisingly, he still was pretty grumpy. It was the worst kind of surprise.

This was basically my day, but without the tiger.
