Long time no post!

OMG! I've been gone too long. :P Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Reasons:
  1. I wasn't aloud on the computer until I cleaned my room (which I draaaaaged out for a week. I'll show pix later)
  2. Thursday I got my dream pet
  3. I went to an animal shelter event Saturday that was from 9-3 (tell you more later)
  4. And school (gur)
Filling ya'll in. In order starting from 1:


1. Well, actually I won't start with one, cause I want to show you before and after pictures of my room; but I don't have them all yet, but I will get them and show them to you in a future post, k? Okay.

2. A couple three years ago, I did a report on the awesome Sugar Glider. Ever since then, I've been wanting one real bad. But the average price for a Sugar Glider is $225. They can be found cheaper (or more expensive), but that's just the average price. I kept searching the newspaper, and last week I found 2 joeys (babies) for sale for $190!! My mom called the lady, and asked if she still had them. She did. Thrusday, Adam (my twin bro), dad, and I went to go look at the sugar gliders and maybe buy one.

We picked up a cage (that we got from free-cycle) on the way. The lady (I'll call her... Carrie) had this little room, and on the left was a screen cage with a bunch of big talking birds, and to the right was a screen cage with a bunch of little birds (like parakeets and stuff). Me and Adam got to hold two parakeets :). It was a cool room. Then Carrie showed us her teeny little tortoise. Then finally, the sugar gliders. :):):) She brought out the little babies, and handed me and Adam one each.

After a while, me and Adam switched gliders. All of the sudden, outta nowhere: the sugar glider I was holding jumped out of my hand, and right into my face! Boy did that scare me! I tried to grab her, but I couldn't. I finally caught her, but she bit me really hard (which made me bleed. ow!) then she glided from my hand onto a pillow on the couch, then she went behind the couch! My dad and Carrie pulled the couch out and we caught the sugar glider. I was kind of embaressed... but at least we got her back!
I decided to buy the other sugar glider (not the one that bit me!). I didn't have any food yet, so Carrie gave me some food to last about a week. I was soooo excited! I finally got my dream animal!!! Here are a few pictures of the sugar glider whom I haven't named yet :P:

I was trying to take a cute pic of her, but she wouldn't stop moving! :(

So cute!









What are you looking at?







Watchin me from the ceiling

Her yellin at me (I'll take a video of her doing that and put it on here soon :)

This previous Wednesday, I took my sugar glider to church; and boy was she a hit! She got pretty scared though: she's never seen so many people! She bit me once which didn't feel good. I've been bitten quite a bit by her. Today she bit me, and made me bleed! That's rare FYI.

If you guys have any ideas for a name for her, please comment them to me, thanx!

I got to go to bed, so I'll post later about the animal shelter thing.

WPSH!!!!! (will post soon hopefully)
