Solamen miseris socios habbuisse doloris. - Misery Loves Company (Latin)
In my contact with people I find that, as a general rule, it is only the little, narrow people who live for themselves, who never read good books, who do not travel, who never open up their souls in a way to permit them to come into contact with other souls--with the great outside world.

You know that place halfway between awake and asleep? That place where you still remember dreaming? That's where I'll always love you. -Tinkerbell

When God says "no", there must be a greater "yes". -unknown
And how can I stand here and not be moved by You? Could You tell me, how could it be any better than this? -"Everything" by Lifehouse

Allrighty, last time I promised some animal stories. I'll just start with a list of all of the animals that have bitten me, and if I feel that any one particular animal needs explanation, I'll stop and explain.
- Cat
- Dog
- Hamster - (my fingers and the palm of my hand) I probably had salt on my hands, and Andi's hamster was just a jerk.
- Mouse - (on the nose) I was a tot, and I held the mouse up to my nose to cuddle with it.
- Gerbil - (callus on my finger) once again, salt or something. when he bit down, he couldn't get his teeth out of my callus. So he was stuck and I flung him across the room.
- Turtle - (knuckle on pointer finger) it was a snappin' turtle.
- Snake - (thumb) trying to see how many I could catch in a row
- Goat? I'm not sure.
- Duck - (the butt) My neighbor had ducks. Apparently I made Donald mad.
- Robin - I attempted to reach into her nest and she pecked at me... not really bitten.
- Rabbit - she was just a freaking vampire bunny. she bit through the sleeve of my hoodie and had there not been material there she would have taken a huge chunk out of my arm. I was just left with a bruise the size of a quarter-dollar on my arm for over a week.
- Fish - I swim with fish, they bite occasionally.
That's all for this evening. I think I'll close with this:
Good night everyone.
Alli, you probably are just tasty. My pets actually like me, I get licked and nuzzled. Hmmmm...remind me never to share your tent if we go camping.
