One of my favoritist rats passed away a few days ago. That sucked. I came home from work and she was drooling and lying there all miserable. So i held her for 5 1/2 hours until she went. I miss her. On an up note, I'm going to NY on the 7th for my best friend's wedding. I haven't been back or seen most of the peole who will be there in years, so it should be fun. I need a break from here, so seeing friends and family will be nice. 
Funny, I go to Maine when I need a break.
