Hey. So life is pretty great. That about sums it up.
Look at this funny creature!!
It's called an Angora rabbit. Ever worn an Angora sweater? They're suuuper soft. I used to have one and loved it but donated it once I learned where the nice fuzzies came from. (Wearing fur is GROSS, imo.) Here's what Wikipedia says about Angora rabbits:
"The Angora rabbit is a variety of domestic rabbit bred for its long, soft hair. The Angora is one of the oldest types of domestic rabbit, originating in Ankara, Turkey, along with the Angora cat and Angora goat. The rabbits were popular pets with French royalty in the mid 1700s, and spread to other parts of Europe by the end of the century. They first appeared in the United States in the early 1900s. They are bred largely for their long angora wool, which may be removed by shearing, Combing, or plucking (gently pulling loose wool)."
Well...that was actually kinda boring, hehe. But I think they're awesome anyway! I've got a lot more weird animals up my sleeve, but I'll save them for later.
I really want to go see Matisyahu tonight, but I can't afford a $25 ticket right now. It's sweet that he's in Columbus, though! Hopefully he'll be back. Here he is being awesome and stuff:
Aiight, that's all for now. Sayonara!

That is an amazing little rabbit! Genetics sure is a strange thing....why would a rabbit evolve in such a way? Even if they bred it in such a way, doesnt it take quite a while to change its genetics? I like thinking about such things.
It would be really sad if it is bred to make fur
But I suppose making wool isnt so bad? I wonder how long it takes to grow back?
I have to say.....Emiloo2 is "one heck of a gal"!!!!!
How is work treating you...sounds like very well, eh?
I hope they all get along...
