I is a moving noodle
Me and The Adam are moving! We got a lovely (and looks nice and warm OHH YEAHH!) place on Aikmans road. The lease here doesn't run out until the 24th, but in order to get the nice (and did I mention should be warm?) shiny new place we had to sign a lease for that starting on the 12th. So two weeks of double rent :Q( Looks like we will be moving stuff slowly over there for a while though, and so I need to get rid of a bunch of my stuff that isn't going to fit into a new and small (but warm yay!) place.
For a start, I brought a shiny new wild strawberry plant, one of the ones that is supposed to give me tiny but amazing tasting strawberries. It has runners with about three reasonable sized runner plants on it. I would like to remove the runners so that the plant itself can grow for a bit. Would anyone like the runner plants? The label says the variety is Fragaria vesca, variety Semperflorens if that is helpful.
I also should reduce my book collection too. I'll see if I can sort out tomorrow which books I would like to adopt out.
Mmmmm warm place good.
It has a tiny private courtyard too, so hopefully I'll be able to somehow figure out a way to hedgehog safe it so Moloko can trundle and play outside his cage which would be fantastic.
At christmas my cousin tried to tell me I should let him go, because she thinks "as an animal lover" he should be running around free. Yes, free is best, but after seeing the state of some of the hedgehogs that have visited my back yard I'm bloody glad he has free access to food, water, warm dry shelter, and regular flea and worm treatment. Mange is not pleasant.
She also said hedgehogs are social animals, which is flat out wrong. Also that they 'will come back to the same place night after night', which according to studies on hedgehog behaviour I've seen is also wrong. "He'll be 90% instinct", like a cat. But you don't chuck your cat outside
Anyway GRRRRRRRR!! I'm angry because she assumed I didn't research what I was doing fully. If Moloko was a social animal, I'm not so cruel and stupid that I'd just keep him for myself for my own amusement. For fucks sake, she has no clue what she is talking about, but still thinks she can lecture me. NOOOO! Hedgehogs are social my arse.
FUCK YOU I KNOW WHAT I AM DOING
I feel guilty about keeping him in a cage, but better that than have creeping mange and ringworm block his ears and eyes. Fuck that.
That was the only fly in the ointment though, so that is awfully good and kinda unusual for family christmas.
New years was very cool, we went down to Temuka to Troy and Sarah's place to play. It was lots of fun THANKS GUYS! :QD
I forgot to take advantage of their hospitality though and nick off with the first two cases of Taken though DAMN! And I left my green tea and lemon there so I'll have to do a ninja mission heh.
*Waves at mellowpuff* hello sweeties! I hope you had a good new year and stuffs! I am going to ring you to try to say hello properly soons! And show you the truly horrible plate thing I got for xmas hehehee it's really really ugly!
But yeah. Moving. Trying to lessen my vast amount of stuff.
I'll try to remember to update with books to adopt out here tomorrow.
