a plush Snoopy (a reminder of humorous incident when I was a little kid)
cross-cut paper shredder
2 dress shirts
250 piece Magnetix set

It was a grown-up Christmas. It's all good though; my parents have given me enough of a gift by letting me live there for the last year and a half and not charging me rent.

Aahhh I want a rat again!
My turtles don't do shit

Get a boy rat, then. They're bigger, lazier, more docile and basically like quiet puppies.

Yes it is....but if you know anyone that doesn't have Live and wants to try it out, they can have my 2 months since I won't be using them. Seems a shame to throw it away.

Are you being serious or you mean rat= man??

Bitch · « **Reply #36 on:** Dec 28, 2005, 05:41:50 PM »

Half serious. Since most people seem to believe that male rats are always aggressive to other males no matter what, most pet stores will keep male rats apart. Since they've never had other rats with them, they don't feel such a huge need to have other rats as company and will be content to sit in their cage and wait for you to come home and play. However, they're kind of stinky and need to be played with more often because of their lack of cage mates. Need let out extra often if you intend to keep it in a 10-gallon aquarium, and the aquarium would need to be scrubbed at least twice a week to get out their extra grossness and keep them from getting sick.

Quistis licked me today and accepted the treat I gave her. Cute!

extra stinky? u mean like a ferret or worse?

twice a week so they wont get sick? i dont know how these rats can survive in the outside world now

Bitch · « **Reply #38 on:** Dec 28, 2005, 06:27:19 PM »

They're a little less stinky than ferrets. The reason they smell kind of bad is because their balls sweat, apparently.

In the outside world, rats don't have to live in a small place with the smell of their urine, feces and old food building up in there. They can get respiratory infection or worse, especially if their food ends up being shat in because the rest of their cage is too filthy.

So that means then that the female rats don't smell bad, right??

What do they eat??(this is the most important thing to me, since I'm lazy and the supermarket is like 10 blocks away)

Bitch · « **Reply #41 on:** Dec 28, 2005, 08:30:31 PM »

No, female rats don't stink. And rats will eat almost anything, even though it's about as good an idea to feed rats on your leftover McDonalds as it is to eat it yourself. If you're incredibly lazy, you can just share your own meals with your rat. It's not the healthiest option, but the rat will be very happy, and it's also a way to bond with them, and an extra-handy way to train them, especially if you have chocolate. Carbonated beverages will kill a rat because of its lack of ability to pass gas, and since alcohol is a mild poison to humans, it is fairly safe to assume that it would kill a rat pretty effectively. Don't feed them raw eggs, make sure any meat you give them is fully cooked, and don''t give them eggshells. If you want an animal to give eggshells to, get a hermit crab.

If I hear about the three damn coats one more time... give one to the homeless already. Sheesh.

From his brother:

Bottle of wine
Framed picture of his kid

But that's God's greatest gift of all! My manager's grandbaby was born this past weekend, and the store meeting on Tuesday nearly made me gag. "What did everyone get for Christmas? Well, P_____, you just got the best gift ever!"

Quote

We were both very down in the first place because our beloved Russian Blue cat collapsed and died on Friday, which my family was extremely sad and sympathetic about.

Aw, how old was the cat? What was he/she's name?

Quote

Some weird electronic bubbling light center piece with an alien on top of it (I would've liked this as a freshman but now I have 2 of those light bubble towers that change color...much more classy for impressing the freshman chicks than some alien).

Lava lamp?

My take:
Knit socks, One pair.
Pajamas with frogs on them.
Calgon body mist, 2 fl oz.
Ghasty and tacky cat sweater that I wore anyway because it's warm.
Outfit yet to be actually purchased.
DVD recorder I got myself.
10$ giftcard from my boss.
Various cookies.
Not getting sick, from God.

Not bad for someone who doesn't even observe the holiday.

IDE · « **Reply #47 on:** Dec 29, 2005, 01:54:09 AM »

It's not a lava lamp it's one of those things that you fill with water and a little motor makes bubbles.

Bitch · « **Reply #48 on:** Dec 29, 2005, 07:35:01 AM »

Frog jammies and socks! >D

Merla · « **Reply #49 on:** Dec 29, 2005, 08:27:13 AM »

Hey Nuri my feelings are hurt! You didn't mention the frog socks I got you and a gift yet to be purchased.

Doug you need to shut up. You are so ungrateful. Must you complain about everything.

My take:

pajamas with bears :x
fleece cat sweater
skechers tennis shoes
knit socks
body splash
$5 dollar gift card to Bill Miller BBQ
Owl ring (bought myself, stilling awaiting for it to arrive)
gift promised by an Aunt
gift yet to be purchased from Mom
Lord of the Rings Extended DVD from sis (yet to arrive)

Okay! So my Friend didn't get me a gift, but Phage got me something and Zero is sending me some decals he got from his Mario Kart DS Bundle pack!

...Still. Damn. My list is way short compared to you people!
I desire chocolate now.

Paddy. Would have been 9 in July. He took care of all the little kitten waifs we brought home - groomed them, let them sleep on him, never beat them up, which I had never seen a male cat do. The necropsy showed he died of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which is a virtually undetectable thickening of the heart ventricle. Symptoms are difficulty breathing or rear leg paralysis, but many cats have no symptoms whatsoever and literally drop dead. Considering that the long-term prognosis is not good for cats who have this, I'm glad it was very quick for him.

My family is coming over tonight, so I'm over Christmess.

Today I'm cranky about paying almost $1000 in school district taxes. Houston public schools more or less holding pens while parents work. Little shits can't even spell "fuck" properly when they spray-paint it on people's fences. :angry:

Always.

Mother's keeping the unwanted coat. That sucks, I wanted to sell it on ebay and use the money to go on a shopping spree.

Quistis died this morning, and there's no telling how. I had to bury the body then scrub the cage and bathe the rats to hopefully avoid spread of diseases.

So for latins it's sort of like the tolkien-verse where height equals knowledge and powet. Fascinating. This makes miami The Latin Shire.
