Sleepy Morning

Crash is over. Food, sleep, snuggles & being loved helped. Been lying in bed comfy for a couple hours now. Shortly I wil get up, shower, and off to work.

I expect some emotional bounces in the next few days, but they should be smaller. It definitely fucks me up when things aren't solid at home, and that's been resolved for now.

And, best of things, I think my hook holes are gonna scar!

As Lizzy So Eloquently Says

Everyone is invited to attend the social event of the season - a new rat room warming party at Small Joys Rattery in Vancouver BC on the afternoon of Sunday May 15th. I know that Erin talked to a few people about this at Ratapalooza so there may already be people in the Seattle/Tacoma area to carpool with.

For many years, and in many different apartments, Erin has kept her rats in the kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom and/or in a large closet (have I missed anything Erin?) but at long last Erin and Angus have moved into an apartment big enough for the ratties to have their own room. They want to celebrate by inviting the whole pet rat community to show off their new place and ofcourse to show off their wonderful ratties. I may bring a few of my rats to show off too and we plan to invite Little Mischief Rescue to bring any availble, yet well quarantined rats, that they may wish to find homes for. Apart from that, to ensure that nothing communicable is passed on to our ratties, we do ask that everyone else leave their ratties at home. Should you wish to bring a snack for sharing with people and/or ratties, or a small gift for the new rat room, I'm sure it would be gratefully appreciated, however, it's certainly not a prerequisite to attending, and we would not like to see anyone stay away for lack of something to bring.

If anyone is interested in attending please let me or Erin know, and we will send you the address and directions. If anyone is interested in attending but needs someone to carpool with, let us know about that too and we will try to match you up with someone. Finally, for those coming from the US, please remember that a passport or enhanced drivers license is now required to cross the border and back. If you don't have one yet, it sounds like an enhanced driver's lisence can be obtained fairly quickly. And for anyone without the required ID who maybe be thinking of coming up for Ratstravaganza in February, now would be a good time to start thinking about applying for it.

Recovered?

I give up. I really do love all y'all.

That's only socially acceptable to say if I get drunk first, right?
