An ex-boyfriend always used to tell me I had sunflowers in my eyes. I thought he was just being corny and I could never see …

Usually the turtles will slide off their basking spot if they see you coming.  That’s how they got their name… sliders.  Frick! is a Yellow Belly Slider and Radar is a Red Ear Slider.  They bask in the sun (or under a heat lamp in this case) and if they see anyone coming they just slide off into the water. …

This FOAD Thursday is being dedicated to my cold and whoever gave it to me. I have moved past the sore throat stage into the itchy throat stage, which is worse. My chest is congested and every time I cough from one or the other it hurts in my throat and my ribs. Below my nose is red and sore …

That would be me… banging on death’s door.  I feel like my face is on fire, and someone injected way too much liquid into every opening in my head and it’s all coming gushing back out. Like… someone poured acid down my throat that magically turns into green goo upon reaching it’s destination. Having a cold SUCKS.  Sure, colds are …

Last night I had Harley out for a cuddle.  He was curled up on me sleeping while I geeked and watched TV. At one point I sat sideways on the sofa and held him in my hands on my belly… where he curled up and got comfortable.   He looked up at me and then started to lick his belly… it was …

I woke up today with the worst possible sore throat ever.   I either have a hell of a cold coming on or I’m about to get strep throat for the second time in my life. I’m hoping it’s a cold. This photo isn’t of my throat at the moment.  It’s a photo from July 2004, the last time I had …

We finally finished working on Harley’s Hedgie Bachelor Pad!  Here are some photos from when we bought it, before doing anything to it.  You can see how huge it is next to our 180L turtle tank!  It’s actually meant for rabbits or guinea pigs, which is why we had to do some alterations to it.  Hedgies aren’t the most hardy …

That’s what I feel like, you know… the Staypuff Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters.  (I’d link to them but shit, it’s 7:05am on a Sunday and I just woke up. Not gonna happen) I’m PMSing like hell and it pisses me off to wake up 3 lbs heavier today than I was yesterday.  Ok, I know weighing yourself every day is …

He loves running around in the water, but he really does look like he’s begging to be picked up in these photos! In the first one he’s looking up me as if to say “WHEE THIS IS FUN!”, but in the second one …

I’ve been BAMBOOZLED! Do you remember back in July when I wrote a post about best friends?  If not, click the link please because I can’t be arsed to explain it all again. Anyhow, I feel cheated!  They are imposters! Ok, I guess they technically aren’t imposters since there is no real Bree or Daniel, but you get what I’m …

Harley has been with us for six days now, and we don’t really see much of him. When we go to bed, this is what we see, when we wake up… this is what we see.   A spikey little ball curled up behind his snuggle buddy (microwavable for warmth) inside his igloo. If it weren’t for the lack of food …
