BubblesSOC

I recently had to change the bedding in Coco’s cage due to the smell. I didn’t have any pine bedding, so I filled the cage with small animal litter instead. Apparently, Coco hates the litter because she always cries to be let out. Being the compassionate owner that I am, I’ve been letting her run around the apartment rather than making her stay in her cage. This morning, I heard her gnawing on something, so I got down in the floor to check it out:

She chewed completely through the cord! I have no idea how she didn’t get electrocuted. I told her that she’d never see the apartment floor again Now, I have to find a new adapter for my cordless phone charging bay.

This weeks’ features include: Jackie Brown and Starsky & Hutch. Both were pretty good. Any suggestions for tomorrow night?

Earlier this week, I stumbled upon the cutest flash animation/movie - Ninjai: The Little Ninja. There are 10 chapters, with 4 more on the way. The graphics are amazing. The storyline is actually what makes the film so great, in my opinion. Be sure to check it out

In net news, BubblesSOC was accepted to Diamonds of the Web and Devilish. Laila sent me a cute Summertime gift I’ve been spending a lot of time at both SNOG! and Tunapuff Forums.

Coco learned a trick! I showed William and his two roommates, but they pretended to not be impressed Coco loves carrots, and she’s learned that the rattle of the bag means it’s treat time. She’s also learned to escape the cage when I’m not looking. Sunday night, I spent 2 hours trying to catch her! She’s one fast little critter.

I found this webpage through All Things Kawaii that brings back childhood memories. I have millions of unused erasers laying around my house because I used to collect them. Most of them were Sanrio, but I would also get them as souvenirs from vacations and such. Aww, the good ole days!

If you’re bored, check out No Effort Online and watch Tales for the L33T and Tales for the L33t: PATR TOO - they are hilarious! I watch them all the time because I love the soundtrack

I’m pleased to announce that Robine has selected BubblesSOC as Site of the Week. In other WWW updates, Vanessa got a new domain and Anneke has a new layout. Jem made a new toplist and skin. Be sure to wish Linze a very Happy Birthday! I think that’s all, but if I’m forgetting anyone, please let me know Before you go, why not add a funny caption to the new picture?

Thanks: Christine, Tarah, Chloe, Anneke, Emma, Joni, Mandi, Jem, tuan, Diana, and Mike. Have a nice afternoon!

You’re Elle Driver! Sly and evil, you can manipulate people in order to get whatever you want. You’re usually alone, but that’s the way you like it. You hate having others nearby to order you around (unless it’s Bill, of course… but even then you’re still hesitant). Which Deadly Viper Assassin are you?

Sorry everyone for the recent downtime! I didn’t realize that my domain name had expired I’ve been so bored the past few days without my site.

Saturday was wonderful! William and I celebrated our two-year anniversary We drove to Birmingham, AL to eat at a Japanese restaurant called Stix, which was excellent. We both ordered steak & chicken. I love Japanese food! Next time, we’re ordering sushi as well. I told William since we eat Japanese food so often, we have to learn to use the chopsticks… that’s my new goal.

I would like everyone to meet my new pet guinea pig, CoCo She was my other anniversary surprise from William. I wanted a kitten, but I can’t afford one right now. The pet deposit at my apartment is $300 plus $10 added to the rent each month I decided to get a cavy (guinea pig) instead of a hamster or a ferret because the people at the pet shop told me that cavies smell much better. CoCo is very loving; however, she is quite skittish. We’re still trying to adjust to one another.

Anyways, Will and I are watching Rocky II and my laptop battery is dying, so I better go. Thanks for the comments: tuan, Christine, Daynah, Sanne, NavahX, Anjana, leila, christine anne, Kanu, Emma, Dayna, Raph, Emma, Mike, and natasja.

I’ve seen a lot of cute sites about hamsters lately, namely Baruchito’s Homecage. I’ve decided that I’m going to buy myself a hamster. I’ve always wanted one, but I’ve heard they smell really bad… is this true? My apartment already stinks without any animals Is there a lot of hard work involved in owning a hamster? If anyone knows, please let me know because I’m seriously thinking about purchasing one.

I did absolutely nothing this weekend except work on my story. When I start writing, you can’t stop me! Will ventured home for the weekend, so it was just me and the fishies alone in T-Town. Last night, I realized that I didn’t have any cash; however, I was craving a McDonald’s #2 (which is the 2 Cheeseburgers Combo in Tuscaloosa, it’s different elsewhere). I paid for my meal… IN CHANGE! I was so embarassed. Thank goodness my parents love me and they sent me some money by William

Saturday afternoon, I signed up for a free account at Cinema Now and rented Kill Bill Vol. 1 online. My my, you don’t get much lazier than that… Blockbuster video is only a block away.

Thanks to whomever nominated me for the Random Bee-Ut award at the Qbee… I was thrilled when I discovered it in my Inbox this afternoon! Thanks also to everyone who commented on the new DoodleBlog navigation… it’s here to stay Before I go, here’s two quick plugs: Sushibomb.Org has a cute layout featuring my favorite animal and Linze has a new layout featuring my worst fear… be sure to check ‘em out.

I guess it’s picture week at BubblesSOC. My senior citizen Maltese never ceases to amuse me. You can’t tell in this picture, but she is stretched across three pillows. Well, I thought it was funny. (Her eyes look funny because I was experimenting with the Red-Eye Removal tool in PSP)

Will and I re-inflated Odysseus this afternoon. Boy am I glad we had an Air Compressor, or we would have spent the remainder of our natural lives blowing up that thing Will’s mom and dad got a kick out of it while Maggie, Will’s dog, kept barking at it. I left it at Will’s house and I pray that his little brother doesn’t get a hold of it. Not that he would tear it up or anything, but I’m taking extra care of my gargantuan octopus float!

Today was boring, so I really don’t have anything to talk about. Has anyone eaten at a fast food restaurant called Backyard Burger? One recently opened in my hometown… it is delicous!

As usual, I’m falling asleep as a type this, so I’m going to hop in bed now. I’m so glad almost everyone enjoyed the Orlando pics (*ahem* Jem and Tuan) Thanks for the comments: Aurora, Beth, Christine, Jem, kitsune, Nagaki, Natasja, Rebecca, Sam, Sanne, and Tuan.

Plug: Moopy.Nu & Angelic Network. Hmmm… I really need to update my webcam…

Due to several requests, I somehow managed to get a snapshot of my crab. In the picture, he is hanging upside down from the aquarium heater. It’s kinda blurry, but it’s the best I could do

I’ve decided to hold off on releasing the new skin. I’m still unhappy with its appearance. However, it shouldn’t be too much longer until I post the final version. (Nevermind, I released it anyway!) By the way, thanks everyone for your wonderful comments about it.

Check this out: BubblesSOC is listed on a popular Alabama website (Although, I’m listed in the wrong location! hehe)

Boo Bear looks mighty comfy on my bed… I think I’ll join her. Thanks: Peter, Peter, Tina, alice, kitty, Nicole, and su.

My crab is quite the escape artist! Today, I found him behind the aquarium. He’s also very skittish. Whenever I walk into the kitchen, he runs inside the octopus decoration and hides. The aquarium temporarily sits in the kitchen beside the sink. Last week, I heard a thud during the night. When I got up to get a glass of water, I found my crab inside the sink, on the edge of the drain! I’m glad that I saved him before he fell inside. Now, I have to keep the plugs over the drain just in case my adventurous crab decides to go exploring

Yesterday, I installed an archive hack. I’m having a serious layout block right now, but I’ve been working everyday on a new one. I hope to have it up, soon.

Hope everyone had a very Happy Valentine’s Day! Thanks su, xuan, Annabelle, and Peter for my Valentine’s greetings Also, thanks to Kitty for my Vday card.
