A day late, but that’s par for the course with me.

This is the cutest bunny I have ever seen! The more I see these little guys online, the more I think about getting one of my own. Either that or a ferret. Joe knows someone at work who has one and she said they don’t smell nearly as musky as they do in the pet store. They are cute and playful and they can live in a condo-like three-story cage when you’re not home. Perfect pet (other than a cat).

The world’s greatest elevator rides – not for those with acrophobia! The only elevator I’ve been on in this list is the one in the St. Louis Arch. I can safely say I’d be fine never going on that one again because holy crap is it claustrophobic! Plus if you need to use the bathroom once you get to the top, you’re shit out of luck (pun intended) because they don’t have one. It’s too small up there.

I am looking for an ultra-thin camera to carry around in my purse at all times and while I’d prefer a Canon, their cameras in the price range I’m shopping ($100-$200) are just too ugly and bulky. Right now I can’t decide between this Nikon or this Olympus because there aren’t enough reviews to get a good idea of their true performance. I need to compare features more. Right now I just like the idea of getting a blue camera since I’ve always owned silver or black and I also like that both cameras have image stabilization.

Introducing… Oreo

Check out what my hubby brought home tonight. Isn’t she adorable?

Little Miss Oreo

Joe was at Petco earlier with his kids after their regular Thursday night dinner and spotted her. He sent me a picture message with his cell phone and as soon as I saw her, I had to have her!

She’s younger than Peanut was when we got her, so she’s pretty energetic, but he said he was able to hold her without her biting him which is a good sign.

We’ve decided to name her Oreo since she’s black on both ends and white in the middle. :)

Tmobile was hit with a class action suit recently over its charging customers for unwanted text messages. It’s about frickin time! My biggest complaint with them is how I can’t turn off text messaging. I’m not a teenage girl and I don’t like that people continue to text me when I don’t have a plan and have to pay per text. I swear those cellphone companies are all sorts of greedy. I hope I can get some money back for this bullshit.

More cute pets! Heart-shaped ferrets and a hammy going for a dip (I don’t condone bathing your hamster, but it’s still a cute shot). Oh and the cutest kitty paws in the world.

It’s not nice to laugh at other’s people’s misfortune but I admit, this is kinda funny. Like someone in the comments of the article already said, it’s a Whopper of an error. I’ve always thought debit cards were a risky idea and don’t have one. Had it been a credit card, these poor people wouldn’t be getting slapped with fees for an overdrawn account. A credit card offers more protection because you’re not messing around with the money you need for bills and whatnot.

Movies, food and hamsters

The day started out rather mundane, sleeping until 9:30, making a big breakfast, then lounging around and falling asleep on the couch for awhile. After taking a shower in the afternoon I gained a little energy so we went out to rent a movie, Ocean’s Thirteen, and grab some food (Qdoba).

On the way home we checked the mail and my prizes from Jodi’s contest arrived. The little hamsters in the balls are so cute! Thanks Jodi! If you want one of your own, check out Jodi’s Etsy site.

Ocean’s Thirteen was much more enjoyable than Ocean’s Twelve but I can’t help questioning the logic behind the tunnel boring machine. I could have sworn I learned on the Discovery Channel that those machines get left underground because they are too massive to get out of the tunnels once their work is done, so I’m not sure how they could have realistically gotten their hands on one of those machines. Then again, I have to wonder how much of any of that movie was realistic, not that it made me enjoy it any less. But hey, does anyone know if that casino/building really exists in Vegas? It’s pretty cool!
