This has never happened before.
I escaped TVtropes after reading only 2 articles.

Yesterday we acquired a guinea pig. Some people on my street were trying to get him out from under the car he was hiding in, I walked by, and long story short he became mine.
His name is now Oily and he is brown and white. And he has little cowlicks all over and is very sweet (just a little shy).
(I checked the newspaper lost and found, craigslist lost and found, and the local humane society lost pets pages and there were no reports of a missing guinea pig. So he will stay with us.)

UPDATE: Oily is actually a she! :o

I weigh less than I have ever weighed since I was like 14.
I kind of wish I hadn't tossed all my cool, old jeans, thinking I'd never fit them again.

Though I still have some cool shorts I thought I'd never get to wear again, but now I bet they'd fit. I should go try them on.

The downside of this is that all my jeans are so loose they can fall off without even being unbuttoned. I have no money to buy more clothes.

Guess what I got as a Christmas present today?
Mice! 3 of them.
We think one of them is pregnant *eyes the cage warily*
If I had a camera I would show you pictures...

Today I watched TV and worked on a picture.
And yesterday I found out that I'm going on a week-long vacation starting Saturday. Huh.
