Wednesday I will cut the velvet for Jeremy's sleeve linings and the silk velvet for the trim on the man dress and the belt. After that, time for the surcoat, which I hope won't take so long.Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10636008575352553274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6175976.post-1096330866328874052004-09-27T19:21:00.000-05:002004-09-27T19:21:06.326-05:00Jeremy & Gex.

Jeremy got a new job, so he's actually contributing now- about $500 last month, but it will be less this month. That's a huge weight off my shoulders, since he hadn't put ANYTHING into the joint account, the jerk. Cupcakes have been paid for, hall is paid off, flowers are done, only $200 more on the dress...it's coming together.

There's several levels of cage cleaning, starting with picking up the poop and uneaten food daily. If you do that regularly, you probably won't have to do a take-everything-out cleaning more than once/twice a year. It's also important to keep your pet's food and water dishes clean. This can be done weekly, Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10636008575352553274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6175976.post-1092839954530738122004-08-18T09:35:00.000-05:002004-08-18T09:39:14.530-05:00Baby Froggie!That's what little friend M calls Trogdor. She calls Jeremy her daddy, which is most certainly is not. I have been informed by my sister that J looks like Joe Namath.
So I'm at the kidlets' house this week. They are fascinated by Trogdor and his crickets in a box.

First, a PSA:
Dear Jerkface,
If you order two geckos, please don't leave them sitting at the post office for 2 days! That's not very nice.
Second: The Point
The point is, taking proper care of a reptile involves a lot of research, pre and post purchase. Obviously, first you have to decide what type of herp appeals to you: snakes, lizards, frogs, whatever.

Well, not really a week- more like Tuesday night through Saturday. Gex helps some. Because of this, I am thinking of signing up for a "cricket contract" where the little nasties are delivered weekly.

I don't like to receive them, but I like to smell them and have them around. Getting a gift of roses just seems so artificial- the giver didn't take the time to find out I prefer tulips, daisies, sunflowers, irises, or orchids. They (well, usually he)just did what's expected.

However, today I had to turn away two guys who did not have the legal right to work in this country. I hate it. They've been working here for years, and they had the bad luck to try to work for a company that actually knows how to spot fake IDs, and there's nothing I can do to help.

If you have pets, you really ought to plan what you will do in the event of severe weather. Of course, this includes our reptilian friends. Here's what I do:

This one worries me. Also, I haven't put my links back.
Last weekend we purchased the special UV light and fixture for Trog Dor. We have the vivarium, it just needs furnished. Oh, and more heating fixtures- beardies like their temperatures up around 100, and it only gets tp about 90 in my house.Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10636008575352553274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6175976.post-1084813876459995002004-05-17T12:10:00.000-05:002004-05-17T12:11:16.460-05:00I am your leader, bow to me...

The answer to this problem, I think, is obvious. Since men can't seem to stop raping, they should be removed from the military or strictly segregated from the women.Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10636008575352553274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6175976.post-1084471454708543562004-05-13T12:58:00.000-05:002004-05-13T13:04:14.706-05:00The QuestionThe "when are you going to start a family" question, that is. People ask when J and I are getting married, and then ask when we plan to "start a family." We generally reply that our family already exists, but that we will be official on March 12th. This, of course, is not what they mean. These people want to know about kids. They have the idea that the only valid family is one with kids, Zoehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10636008575352553274noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6175976.post-1084392883720066572004-05-12T15:00:00.000-05:002004-05-12T15:14:43.720-05:00Where to keep your reptilesAnd the reader is thinking, "Duh, Zoe, in their cage!" . That's not what I meant. I'm thinking of geographical location- which room of the house is best?
There are a few things to consider:
1. Temperature. The room should be heated in the winter. AC in the summer is nice and helpful at maintaining a year-round ambient temperature (which makes your life easier), but not essential.
