We have a new ferret! Her name is Maha Kali, Cosmic Destroyer - or Kali, for short.
She's a little skittish around the other two ferrets and mostly hisses and barks at them right now when they come near her (which is most of the time). She definitely didn't get too much attention or outside time with her previous 11 year-old owner, because she's very antisocial and shy. We'll have to change that!
Me and Ashley are getting married next year. We've decided that it's time with where we want to be and where we currently are. The date is October 9/2010. I never thought I'd love someone enough to marry them, but love is obviously way too powerful for thoughts and ideas. We're going to get a nice house, probably somewhere in Fort Rouge so long as Ashley finds a solid job after India (November). It's a little bit overwhelming... child, wife and house. We'd even be getting a dog, but I'm so happy with it. I've definitely "matured" and come a long way. For so long I sat at my parents dreaming and hoping but never acting. Now I have to try hard just to keep dreams buoyant.
The biggest help with this is Ashley - she helps keep me up when I'd otherwise fall down. She is so very helpful with so many things from day to day functioning in the real world to giving me the spiritual support I sometimes need. Her smile lights any darkness and keeps me radiant in the most difficult situations (there are plenty!). I think she makes the difference that I never had before, and why I'm so much stronger and more confident in myself. With her I can find the silence between the spaces - in another. I don't know many people who have been lucky to have found such an connection - I love you!
