Poor Pixie… she had to get shaved! The groomers gave her a schnauzer cut … she looks so silly!

I need to get some new photos of Coco as well

I get to design another website… one of my friends asked me to make one for his fraternity… I should start a business and make some $$$!

I’m so lonely My parents took Pixie home with them last weekend. She’s getting spayed on the 17th of March. I never realized how much I would miss her! It’s just not the same without the little furball chewing on my hair in the middle of the night. I call my parents every day to check up on her. She’ll come back home with me Spring Break (March 25 - April 4). Just a couple of weeks!

I got paid yesterday, so I went on a mini shopping spree I just have to post a pic of my new rain boots! I’ve been wanting a pair since Christmas time, but haven’t been able to find them anywhere. I don’t like the hot pink laces on the front, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers

Remember when I mentioned that the left Shift key on my laptop wasn’t working? I managed to skirt this issue thanks to Caps Lock and the right Shift key. Now, both of them have ceased to function. I had to borrow the keyboard from Will’s computer in order to type this entry DON’T DRINK COKES BESIDE YOUR LAPTOP! That’s why my keyboard is messed up in the first place.

Have a good weekend everyone.

I was awake until 4 am last night finishing my CS project. It was working perfectly when I turned it in, so I hope I did well on it. CS 124 is my hardest class this semester by far. We will get ANOTHER project assigned tomorrow, except this one is a group project. I absolutely hate group projects But that’s a whole ‘nother story…

So, I went to check on Coco a bit ago only to discover that her cage door is open and she is running around the bedroom. I asked William if he let her out, but he said no. Apparently, that crafty pig has learned how to escape from her cage I don’t blame her, either! Pixie accompanied me to feed Coco and I got some cute pics of the two playing together.

You can see larger versions of some of the pictures on Pixie’s dogster page.

Today was a sad day for Naruto fans. The series was licensed to Cartoon Network. I’m sure that they will absolutely butcher it as they did Sailormoon and various other animes. Oh well, at least I still have the manga, which is better in my opinion

Pixie thinks that she’s a human and that she deserves to sit at the table with the rest of us.

She also likes to take naps in the chairs while mama stares at the computer.

Mama is boring…

Coco has been cooped up in her cage for a while, so I decided to let her run around the back bedroom earlier tonight. Pixie whines if she doesn’t get to visit Coco with me, so I held her while I fed Coco a carrot. Coco is one fearless little rascal! She’s not even the slightest bit scared of Pixie, but then again, how intimidating is a Maltese anyway? Pixie was jealous that Coco got a carrot and she didn’t, so I gave her one, too. She played with it for a while, then surprisingly, she ate it. Coco has grown much friendlier since her skin condition finally healed.

While grocery shopping this afternoon, I stumbled upon Frosty Paws - doggy ice cream! Rach’s dog, Bonnie, and Pixie absolutely loved it. Pixie’s is melted, but she’s still licking it up.

Good news, my CS professor took pity on my soul and allowed me an extended deadline for the project. Thank goodness! I didn’t want to start the semester off with a zero.

I just realized that I missed the inauguration today. To be quite honest, I’ve lost interest in politics. I guess I’m too busy to keep up with what’s going on. Well, I’m exhausted, so I’m going to bed. Goodnight.

please excuse my lack of capitalization, my computer is acting up again. there is something wrong with the left shift key thanks for all the wonderful comments concerning pixie! if you haven’t already, be sure to check out her dogster page. as requested, i managed to get a couple of snapshots. however, she doesn’t sit still long enough for me to snap a decent photo of her. keep in mind when viewing the following photographs that i don’t claim to be a photographer

other than the evil eyes, just cute lil pixie

zzzz…

over the thanksgiving holidays i discovered a couple of scabs on coco. i took her to the vet and she’s taking antibiotics right now. from her actions, she appears to be feeling 100% better i’m supposed to call back on the 10th to find out the results of the tests.

it’s finals time, so i’m not going to be around for at least two weeks. hopefully, i can get a new layout up over the holidays. inspired by dodo and neige, i thought it would be a nice idea to exchange christmas cards. if you’re interested, email me with your name and mailing address

i have much to chat about, but i’m too tired right now. william and i tasted indian food for the first time tonight, and it didn’t sit too well with me… i’m not too fond of spicy food be sure to check out my friend andy’s journal. special thanks to my secret santa(s) for the great gifts!

No, I’m not getting married, but I did get a new puppy

Her name is Pixie, she’s a purebread Maltese and she’ll be 4 months old on the 6th of December. I will add more details later, but right now I’m going to bed. I didn’t want to leave anyone hanging any longer

I’m sitting in the floor of the guest bedroom blogging at 4:30 am because Coco was just itching to run around. She’d been cooped up in her cage all day, so I agreed to her adorable lil pleads (wheaks) The guest bedroom is her play area because it’s pig-proofed (i.e. the cords are out of her reach). Right now, she’s doing laps around the bed as fast as she can… it’s such cute sight! Earlier tonight, she was so happy that she jumped at least 4 inches into the air!! I never knew that guinea pigs could jump so high. OUCH! She just collided with the bedpost… poor thing Now, she’s chewing on the doorstop. What a crazy/amusing animal! I could watch her play all night long.

Check out this website, typoGenerator, that I found through DMB. I made the following image with the text ‘pink octopus’…

Nothing much to blog about since today was a lazy day Thanks everyone for the comments: Anneke, Christine, Dionne, Jenny, Kitten, leila, Sam, Tarah, & tuan.

Thanks everyone for the guinea pig advice… I need all the help I can get! Coco seems to like the new bedding and alfalfa that I bought for her this afternoon. I’ve yet to determine if she likes her Kritter Krawler or not. When I place her inside, she justs sits down rather than running around.

I’ve had Coco for about a month, shouldn’t she be warming up to me by now or does it take more time? When I try to pick her up, she’s runs away squealing, avoiding my hand. When I place her in my lap, she tries her best to get out. She doesn’t like to be petted… she just enjoys running around and hiding from me Is this normal? More advice would be greatly appreciated.

Tonight, I rented The Last Don. I’ve seen part two, but never part one. I’m going to watch it later. I’m obsessed with the mafia!
