As for Cow, my California Kingsnake, she was picked up this afternoon from my friends house (Jennifer was snake-sitting) and brought home. She's doing great, and she's gotten HUGE! I couldn't believe how wide she's gotten. She shed 3 times while with Jen, and has been eating 4 hopper mice each week. Now that she's home she'll be moving to adult mice and getting 2 each week. I'm so happy to have my pretty baby home!
Some of you may remember that I was building a large bluey-tank a while ago. It was unfinished when I left for training, so now we've spent the day working on it. It now has pretty trm, is being painted, is getting vents, and has the sliding glass-doors. Some pictures of the tank today:
(The water dish is in the back corner for now and the lights aren't in but have been tested and seem to work well)
Now for the really good news! Next weekend I will be picking up Pryce, a northern residing in a pet store in Steinbach (I had a forum on this previously) and bringing him home! And... in the next week or so I'll also be getting my 2 baby tanimbars from Andrew! Yep, that's right, 3 new blueys for me!! Pictures:
Pryce (AKA: Vincent):
Wocket (Wanna guess where I got that name from?):
Trikks has no picture yet because all Andrews yellows are shedding at difficult times -.-' I'll make sure to post tonns when I get him. And all the others too!
So yay!!! In a few weeks I will be the proud owner of 3 little blueys! Cest Manifique! Oh but wait, some of you may have wondered how I'm fitting all 3 skinks into only 2 tanks? Or not. Either way, have no fear, there will be no doubling up. Wocket, being the smallest of the 3, will spend some time in a temporary 20g tank. It will be minimalistic and will hopefully only be in use for a month or 2. Then, we will be building another of my wonderful tanks of doom! And do you know what that means? It means there will be an empty tank left over! Sacrlige! Have no fear, I'm sure I can find some way to fill it! Then will come next baby season, where I will no doubt need another tank. And thus the skinkening begins!
Oh, and in other news....
-I have a boyfriend ^.^ We've been dating for 3 months and all seems well. Go us!
-I also got a Wii ^.^ Muchly fun it is. I don't know which I'm happier about, the boy or the game... better not let him read this -.-'
-My sister currently adopted 3 new fish from my pilot training group and is looking to get a new bunny, my other sister is looking to get a white's tree frog, my mom is looking at 2 birds that look like lovebirds but sho's name I can't remember, and we may be getting another dog...maybe.

I think that's all. Seems like a good post to me. I obviously just felt like typing now that I have my beautiful Mac back... If you've actually read all this, you deserve a prize. I'm not going to give you one, but feel free to buy yourself a bluey or something. It's 12:33 and according to my body I should have been asleep 2 hours ago. I'm so excited for my blueys!!! Okay, night!
