Rock my world!!
Feb. 6th, 2006 05:51 pmSo much going on-- I'm re-invading the East Coast from February 16-21 for Katsucon. Okay, really, the con is just an excuse to snuggle with my beloved ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nalroth and enjoy the all-too-awesome company of Mr. and Mrs. tikal for a weekend.
I'm sick as a dog right now-- there's this really virulent flu going about, and there's currently a contest going on to see who can hack up a lung first among myself and my 8 officemates. I hope to be past the 'contagious' stage before I invade the house ofsafetypup.
And, perhaps the coolest of all things-- after lots of research and advice from such esteemable experts asleesalogic, blueangelrock, etc-- I'm no longer alone in my apartment! Meet Basil and Hobbes (named after the philosopher, not the cute stuffed tiger)! I originally had Locke (a sweet little agouti-fur) and Hobbes, but Locke was sneezing and wheezing within five minutes of getting home-- so back to MegaPetStore with him, and off to the local petstore I got Hobbes at the next day for Basil, who is actually nalroth's rat. When I went back to pick up one of Hobbes' brothers, I asked nalroth which one to pick-- he suggested picking up a curly haired one, and I immediately knew (from three days of casing the local pet stores) which one I'd choose. Anyway, enough blathering-- onto the pictures!
Basil is one of those curly-furred types, which makes him a little softer overall-- and gives him the most adorable curly whiskers!!
Hobbes is a little smaller than his brother, and much more quiet in disposition. Both he and Basil have white bellies and socks on all their feet.
