~whew~
13 out of 16 rats are pretty healthy, 2 of them are practically on their death beds and are relying soley on ME to keep them alive. One of them, Gunther, is my mans #1 favorite and I wouldnt even know how to break it to him if he passed, the other one is mammas little angel, Luxor, who can be seen on my shoulder just a few entries back. Hes the only rat Ive taken photos *with*, hehe. The other rat in bad health has cancerous tumours and there's nothing we can do, she is well over 3, which is like being 90 something in human yrs, so we are expecting her to go. But Gunther and Luxor aren't even 2 yet, which scares me ... Im not prepared for them to leave us just yet.
Gunther, our alpha rat:
One of my best friends pandorial and I were talking abt something very interesting today ... abt how there are certain things abt us all that no one, maybe not even our close friends, would guess in a million yrs. I know I certainly have them, so Im sure all of you do, too.
~Tell me 3 odd facts abt yourself that no one would guess by lookin at you/knowing you
~My 4 yr anniversary for being on this site is coming up in december. How long have YOU been here? What made u join?
~Do you think ppl have "online personalities" and "real life" personalities that differ from one another? How can u tell if the person u talk to online is being "real" with you?

1.) I'm a big sports fan. Everyone thinks I'm this book-loving, politically aware, angry cynic (which I am), and they expect me to hate sports because that's what people like me did in high school. But I can move in both worlds.
2.) I joined probably three years ago. I was going through a rough patch and I really just wanted to feel like I was connecting with something, some group of people, anything. I always went to the groups before any of the picture sets (and I hardly ever look at sets now).
3.) I tend to be a little more bombastic online than I am in real life. In person, I try to be agreeable with people I don't know or with whom I may have differences. I try that too online, but I lose patience much more quickly here, mostly because other people try to see who can be the biggest asshole because they know they're protected by the veil of distance and, in some cases, anonymity that the internet provides rather than having to face a real person.
How have you been lately?
