Content, hibernating---nice state of being, I think. And have a great time Saturday! I can't believe you're up to 11 of 12. Smooch Choco for me. And think about coming up here next summer to do the wineries ride...

Salsa- don't tell Choco (or lately, Zee) but I am in love with a snake named Steve. He's a cornsnake, and his owner always has the funniest stories and photos of him. Like she has a picture of Steve as a baby, next to a plastic Steve Irwin model. And then as an adult. Steve Irwin is now dwarfed by snake Steve. And a couple days ago she went to check on Steve in the morning, and he was gone! So she tears the house apart, and leaves flour along all the places he might be- to look for tracks, and then catches a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye- he's in a big tub of moss, with just his head sticking out, on a shelf, and he has the most adorable guilty look ever...
Choco just got done shedding- a process that took from a week ago Saturday till Tuesday, and then I fed him Tuesday, so he's been digesting for two days. I miss him!
But I have Zee the birthday snake, who is the most adorable thing ever. He tries to burrow into the carpet if I set him down, and he would _never_ bite (like wildcat Inez) and he is a good eater.

Welcome Back Bruno and Nanci!
KG-How is your back?
CWR-I assume you are on vacation. Safe travels. :)
CC-Happy St. Andrew's Day. Kilts, eh?
Bruno-I am very glad to see you posting again. :) I cannot speak like a Scot. :(
DebW-I can only use RPN. Regular calculators throw me off my groove.
Nanci-did Addy ever eat for you? Enjoy your ride Saturday. Pics, please take pics. There is nothing wrong with being content and in hybernating. We all need quiet at some time. I am glad to see you posting. :D
CC-last I heard from Denise223 she was happily becoming addicted to knitting. :D
Lise-I am so glad you had two calm nights on call and you and J have each other. :)
Dar-I am pleased to hear your friend is doing well after his surgery. Now to get Xena to happily take her pill.
No, Addy didn't eat. I'm going to buy some frogs for her when I'm down south, but I doubt she'll eat them. Then I'll have to let her go.
But someone has already offered me a replacement guaranteed mouse-eater- a Western, though, not an Eastern. But I think I've had enough of Easterns for a while. Too bad- she's the sweetest little thing.
She's only lost three grams of weight.

Not this week. To add insult to injury, the breaker downstairs flipped on monday and I didn't know. Everything in the freezer is gone, thankfully, it wasn't really full. And it was the power-doorlock gods who jinxed me last night when I couldn't open the rear door of the van and had to shove the suitcase onto the seat.Quote:

I just made Addy eat a mouse. I opened her mouth and popped it in and she swallowed it down. Now I need everyone to pray it stays down.

And in other news, my daughter's bird who had the leg amputation has decided to eat the rest of his leg and they cant make him stop and even though he is well-fed, he is wasting away to nothing because of his mutilation behaviour. She is inconsoleable.
boy, that's a tough one.Quote:

Now I am hot, sick, cannot sleep, bored, hot, miserbale and I am grumpy.
DH went out in the rainstorm for ginger ale and popsicles. Did I mention how freaking hot I am????
CC-I am using the t-shirt as a sleep shirt. I absolutely love it!!! The design and story are beautiful. I am hoping it brightens me up and brings me luck.
Hey Jennifer,
get well soon. I hear this is going around!
I just dipped about 30 chestnuts into chocolate. They are in the fridge now.
someone has to lick out the double boiler... and no one is home except me!
