Pictures of things in my life right now

The store keeps not having Annie's Mac and Cheese (the regular kind, in the purple box so I have to eat the Arthur-shaped ones. I don't really like Arthur, but I like to pretend I'm eating little Radiohead bears.

That poor little mouse has a sore on its side. I'm confused: Is the mouse trapped or can he get in and out (it is hard to tell from the picture)? I hope he doesn't get infected. :(

I should explain; it's open on the outside, so the bird/rat/whatever can get out. It just suckers onto the window so you can watch the birds.

I don't think they're mice.

And I think he's okay; the wound (when I looked at it really close) didn't look *open*, you know what I mean?

yeah, rats and mice can be cute:)

[my_daroga]

I used to have rats as pets, so the "wild" ones just seem cute.

It turns me off that he has a pet dog; I don't understand the hierarchy of animals in that world. There's a book where he has a puppy at home eating off the floor, and also goes to a diner where there's a dog in a hat and clothes eating like a person.

I mean, come on.

[my_daroga]

Exactly.

Aww, that's a shame, because I love Arthur. I'll still watch the show if I catch it on PBS, and it's my goal to buy the books for my roommate's baby :)

I didn't mean to come down on anyone's love of Arthur. I just got annoyed when I read one where there was a pet dog eating off the floor and another dog in clothes eating at a table in a restaurant.

Ha! True, I'd never thought of that. It's weird in animal cartoons where the animals have pets. It's like, Mickey Mouse's pet was Pluto, who couldn't talk and walked on all fours, but he's friends with Goofy, who's also a dog but walks on two legs. Weird.

Yup! Maybe if I'd been exposed to Arthur when I was little, I'd like it better.
