It's been close to a month since my last update, so I guess I'm right on schedule. I took yesterday off to pack, as I was supposed to be moving my non-essential boxes into my dads house today and tomorrow. Now it looks like it will definitely be tomorrow, as the boy is sick with a crazy high fever (102 last I checked) and I can't seem to organize my thoughts for long enough to get anything done. I do have tasty chips and a jar of olives though, so it's not all bad.
In case anyone is wondering, the hamster is doing super duper well. I was able to figure out a name (finally), Mixmaster Fluff Machine, or Shorty for short. He (I know it was a girl the last time I posted, but since it's grown a lot in the last month I noticed that HE has TESTICLES. Crazy huh? I'm trying to train him to be macho) did have an upper respiratory infection, and I had to play full-blown hamster nurse, mainly because he was all fevered and didn't want to leave his little house to eat or drink. So I had to hand feed him and buy a child's medicine dosing syringe to give him water with. I ever borrowed an electric heating pad from my dads house and turned the cage into a hammy incubator. He's pulled through, and seems perfectly healthy now. Yeah me! I'll post pics once I can figure out some better lighting in this place, as I'm pretty sure a flash would scare the hell out of him.
I'm gonna go stress out more over the fact that we still haven't found anyone to sublet this place, and Steve is moving out on the 1st. I'm gonna either have to figure out a way to afford it myself or build up the guts to ask my dad for help. It scares the hell out of me to have to go to him for money, especially since my sisters have been such freeloading assholes in the past, and I've so far managed to borrow $100 from him in the last 3 years, which I paid back on my next payday. Not to mention the fact that he has this weird idea that woman are all gold diggers and only like him for his money. *sigh* Oh well, gots to do what you gots to do.

Love u all
