Rest in Peace

This morning, or last night, my hamster, Hammy, died. The sad thing is that he looks so peaceful all curled up and laying in his cage, and I know I have to take him out and he'll be all rigor mortis and crap! I bought this hamster with an ex-boyfriend. It was like some big adventure of the day, and the whole thing is a little sad. Gabby seems to be taking it well. I feel bad that he died all alone in his cold cage.

I thought I wouldn't be able to see this new guy JC for a couple of weeks because of Gabby being home, but I saw him yesterday, and I'm seeing him again today. That's one good thing about being sick (hope it's not strep throat), I can call in and then go hang out with him. Well, I went to work for a little while today, but I'm just too sick to stay there. I'm all excited and stuff. I have those little junior high school butterflies in my stomach. I can't wait to see his blue eyes, and his adorable smile, and his cute laugh...Yuck! Does this sound ridiculously sappy or what???

This is what our compatibility test said about us...I know, it's silly, but I'm kind of into it, and so is he, and we're both Cancers, and it's just so weird to talk to someone who is just like me. We can't even play mind games, word games, or question games with each other (like Cancers are prone to do)...we always know that the other one is doing it, and can't get away with it. It's kind of comforting. Anyways, here's what the thing said:

Your relationship is intense and complex. You engage in deep, intense discussions and encounters that unveil your innermost thoughts, feelings, goals, hopes, fears, and ambitions. This is not a superficial relationship! You are very uninhibited with each other, and you open up to each other more readily than to others. Be wary of power struggles, however, as Elizabeth, in particular, may be tempted to manipulate and control JC. Also, either of you may feel threatened, embarrassed, or disempowered by revealing so much of yourself to the other, and consequently feel the need to be secretive and competitive with each other. You have a profound influence upon one another, for good or ill.

The two of you really enjoy each other's company! JC has a great deal of confidence in Elizabeth and is able to see Elizabeth's best qualities. You are very encouraging and supportive of each other, helping each other to be more confident, open new doors, and advance and grow in both inner and outer ways. This positive note of good will and harmony is also invaluable in helping the two of you overcome differences in temperament and other stressful aspects of your relationship discussed elsewhere in this report.

Poor hampster. Are you going to bury him? Have a little funeral? We did when G2 died and it helped the boys. They made their own headstone and everything. (The dogs later dug him up and I tossed him in the trash, but we won't tell them that). Are you going to get another hampster? Or progress to something bigger?

I buried my hamster that died of "wet tail" back in 1999 under a tree. I dug the hole with a dirty fork. It was a few days after he'd been put to sleep with a gas mask. I forgot him in the glove compartment of my car though at first. Luckily I remembered before he started to stink. It was one of the first pets Eric ever gave me.....
There's this song they play on Radio Disney AM 1160 - The Hamster Dance. I'm sure you could download it or something off the Disney website...Anyhoo...it came on in the car tonight, and Gabby and I sang really loud in Hammy's memory.

All Iced In

In case anyone has been watching the weather for the whole country...you will know that here in sunny San Antonio, we have been having some very out of the ordinary weather. We got iced in for the last two days. Not snowed in...It's all ice. Snow to the north, but all we got was freezing rain. I was cracking ice off my car with a wooden flip-flop keychain, seeing as how I don't own an ice chipper or whatever you call them, because this isn't usually a problem. Gabby got to have two ice days from school. I have spent the last almost 72 hours in my house, and I'm literally going crazy!!! I just had to get over to my mom's today so I could do something different for a change. The roads are much safter, but watch out for the ice flying off of cars! I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that a chunk of ice the size of a passenger side car window came hurling at me! It was kind of scary. Or the ice falling from the power lines...that's kind of scary, too. But, th...

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Last one for tonight, I PROMISE!!!

It's official...I've finally decided what it is...I think the background for my posts is too dark. I don't like the way pictures show up on it...I love the whole ocean/beach theme thing because it really fits me, but I think I need something sunny, brighter...I love the picture with the mermaid because it's all bright and stuff, and so is the sidebar, but the dark, navy-ish blue just isn't doing it for me. I don't like the way my posts "look"...I think it reminds me too much of my teenage angst years, when at 14 or 15 I turned everything in my room into navy blue, and put up the darkest navy blue curtains...close enough to being black, it looked like I lived in a tomb, and I couldn't stand it after awhile...It actually contributed to my depression. That's why now, I don't even have curtains...I would much rather have the morning sun come blaring through my windows...That's what I need here...I've figured it out...
