Like goldfish...

My dice collection started modestly enough. Two tens and a few 6-siders. I wound up with an ugly twenty sider. Suddenly, I had to have them all.

And my dice collection grew to the size of one Crown Royal bag (the standard unit of dice collection measurements). Then I split up the collections into two bags, one for travel and one for backups. The one for travel swelled, until it could no longer hold all of my dice. So I bought another bag.

When I hit Hawaii those things took up more than a gallon worth of space. Really. And I acquired more once I put them in a container that just had a little bit of space up top.

The things are like tribbles.

I put them in storage, in a box, 8 months or so ago. Sure, there was a little room, but not much. When I opened it this month, there was not enough room for air in there. Aren't these packages supposed to settle?

Dang.
