For They Are Jolly Good Vermin, And So Say All Of Us It is Winky and Freebie�s birthday today. I remember it like it was yesterday, they were so little and so mischievous, ah, who am I kidding? They haven�t changed�although they give the term butterball a furry little meaning. It�s a little depressing cause I�ve read that they only live 1.5 to 3 years. I finally feel like I�m making a connection � I�m dreading that morning when I wake up to give them food and they aren�t running to nibble my fingers. But that makes it all the worthwhile to give them a big blow out party tonight. There will be mice chocolate and carrots and who knows what else! The pet shop near my work has limited mice supplies but maybe I can bring them back something really special. They are just so adorably cute and fuzzy and I think that when I move out (this weekend) I�ll have a better chance to really get to know them and they�ll fully trust me. It�ll be good that the house won�t have a cat in it so I can rest assured that if I leave the door open to my room no furry feline will gobble them up. It�ll be a good thing I think for them so they can experience moving and relocating while they are still open to change. I don�t need to remind you that my mice are my proxy children, do I? :o) Tyd 5 August 2002 - 10:49 am |
