Wednesday, July 13th.....time of death .....8:30 AM
..............................RIP Penelope...............................
I will miss you little girl, you were a princess and everyone loved you, espechally me!
Today, I woke up to my mother crying on the phone telling me she had help Penelope in her arms untill she had passed and that she was sorry I had not been there with her. I was sorry too, but death waits for no one I suppose. The rest of the day was spent digging her grave, along with Liam another one of my rats who had died a few weeks ago that had not yet been buried. It was a deep hole, and the ground was very hard...it took a long time to dig. Finally, around 6:30pm
my family and I put the two in the ground and said our good byes. It was sad, but a nice little rat funeral. I will miss those two deeply, they had very strong personalities that brought me much happiness. I have decided that after my remaining three rats have gone I am not getting any more pet rats. It simply is too much for me to handle loosing an animal after only a year or two with them. Next time I get a pet it's going to be a dog or a cat....or maybe a pot belly pig. Something that lives for a while at any rate. That being said, I hope Clement, Liams brother, lives a while longer. I don't think I can handle any more death for a while.
RIP Penelope

i'm real sorry meg. i like the idea of a pot belly pig though. and thanks for the cds thing. you should know though, my camera bag was taken, as well as the tripod you lent me. so i'm really really sorry and will replace it when i have the money or sooner if you need it.
