The Compulsive Ramblings Of A Philotherian: water

Boys will be boys...

So, Bart's a dick. I'm serious, he's SUCH a bully! He's always been a dick towards Toby, but now he's attacking Mason and Jasper too. He attacked Mason a little while ago for literally no reason at all. It's becoming a daily thing now -- multiple times a day even! I don't know what we're going to do, but I know our cats can't keep living like this. He's either going to have to go or they are. It's not an easy decision in the slightest.

So, I have some completely random and weird pictures to share today -- mainly cat pictures, but who doesn't love cats? Am I right?

It's been such a stressful couple weeks. Like seriously, I can't even begin to describe everything. It's just one of those points in my life where things suck, ya know? I'm sure everyone goes through things similar to mine -- the majority of them are probably far worse than I could ever imagine. That makes me feel worse, like I should suck it up and move on. I could be dying of cancer, blind, or paralyzed. I bet people that suffer from things like that would kill for the small things that I call my "problems".

Okay, I'm clearly not in any mood to blog. I just wanted to get a quick one in before my terribly long work weekend...

A hideous spider:

What is this strange, yellow ant-like spider?

And lastly, the rats junk food night:

No Bake Eclair Cake = Deliciousness!

Okay, that Eclair cake turned out WAY better than I ever imagined! It's like seriously one of the easiest and tastiest things ever, and that's saying a lot. We see recipes online or on Facebook all the time, but never execute them this well -- this if we try them at all! Most of the time we're like, "Oh wow, we need to try that!" and then we never do. I don't know why we went through with this one.

The ducklings got to play in the bath for the first time today. We tested them last night with a little water in the sink, of course they loved it. We figured they were big enough today for an actual bath. We kept the water high enough for them to get their feet wet and clean themselves, but not too high. We don't want them to exhaust themselves.

As they get older, we'll deepen the water. Unfortunately, I wont get to play with them anymore until Monday. I have a very strenuous work weekend on the horizon and wont have time for much else. Gotta love those 9 hour shifts!

Unfortunately, I don't have anything else to blog about today. I know, a blog of cake and ducklings -- how exciting!

Love & Peace

Just look at that gorgeous and simple Eclair cake.

I don't know if Eclair cakes are baked to begin with, so I call it no bake Eclair cake. I could be wrong.

Now time for ducklings!!

Drying off:

Here are lots of Dam pictures...

LaVaughn and I decided to venture out to the Clearwater Dam today in hopes of scoring some good pictures. Well, it was me that wanted to score pictures, she was just along for the ride.

It was a tad on the warm side today, but not too unbearable. It had cooled down some by the time we got to the Dam, so that make walking around enjoyable. Like 85% of the Dam walking are is shaded by hundreds of trees, so the sun doesn't stand much chance at burning you, or causing you to sweat profusely.

We had to do some grocery shopping after our Dam escapade, which is never a pleasant thing. After that, we grabbed some food from McDonald's -- I know, you'd think we would be sick of it by now. We got take out Chinese last night, which I would have been more than happy to eat again, but they are a tad on the expensive side, so we opted for the cheaper dinner.

It was still decent out when we got home, decent enough for me to get some new pictures of all the joeys. Yes... all 5 of the joeys! I still can't believe we have this many OOP at one time. Luckily, 3 of the 5 have homes, that's including the one we're keeping.

Declan and Fiona STILL don't have homes! I don't know why, they're gorgeous! Not to mention, they're sweet as pie, but it's not like people know how sweet they are. I know them not having a home lined up has something to do with their price, which we have set at $900 right now. But... they have a .4% COI, they're 25% albino het, AND they're classified as marbled mosaics. I don't get why they're still available!

I'm honestly not going to be too upset if Declan doesn't sell. He's SO sweet and SO cute! I runs to me when he sees me, he grabs my hand as soon as I put it near him, I just love him. I'm trying really hard not to get attached to him, though. Cause as soon as I do, or as soon as I think I'm going to keep him, someone will want him.

I'm so done for the day. Until nest time...

Love & Peace
