The honeymoon is over
1. Well, magicofisis, maybe you and I should have had a bet on how long Maya's infatuation with Frisky the hamster would last. I probably would have lost. We bought Frisky on Thursday afternoon and all weekend it was Maya/Frisky = OTP ;) She was constantly taking Frisky out of his cage, putting him in "Friskytown" (the tall box in the living room that's full of old dolls houses for him to play in), trying to make him do "Jacob's Ladder" in her hand, etc. etc. Tonight when we got home, she opened his cage to change his water -- and he bit her finger. No provocation, nothing. He just bit her. ;kaf;kjafd;kja;kj Damn hamster. Maya was REALLY upset. The bite was very small but it drew a tiny bit of blood, so I had to bandage it. She was all set to send Frisky back to Petsmart (where we bought him) but I told her to give Frisky at least one more chance. So basically she ignored him tonight and left him alone in his cage. *sigh* So...any advice from the experienced hamster owners/handlers among you? I think maybe Maya was just handling Frisky too much in general and he was sending her a message. But, I know nothing about hamsters. We just bought a new, "silent" wheel for his cage yesterday. It's silent as long as he's not running in it :)) But really, it's less noisy than the wheel that came with the cage. *sigh* I don't know why I thought this would be easy.
2. I'm still computerless at work. That meant I got a lot of cubicle cleaning done at work today. I went through 3 huge, messy piles of papers on my desk today and managed to get them pared down to a manageable level (my recycling can was FULL today) and even wrote filing categories on each page. That's way more organized than I normally am. That will probably last another, oh, 2 days :)) I was hoping to get my computer back tomorrow but alas, no such luck. Our head compujockey said that there were some hardware problems (like only one slot out of six would work with my sound card). Oh well.
3. What's shakin' with ya'll? Anybody got any really good GOF screen caps?? :D
