Oh, the decisions I&#8217;ll have to make. These aren&#8217;t difficult decisions, of course. I&#8217;ll get to each of them in time.

Most of the time they do not, but now that they are recently curling up with one another it&#8217;s a cute moment. It probably has to do with colder nights.

They were both calmly dozing. And the refs, us, kind of want her to stick up for herself anyway.
