What's in a Name?
After much deliberation and serious consideration I decided to go with......(drum role please).........TEDDY!
It actually wasn't the name I wanted at all. I started calling him Master Rhino, because of Nance and Brooklyn, but it just didn't fit. When I look him, I see a teddy bear. I mean, he is kind of fat, so it is almost like he is not a hamster but a mini-bear.
I want you all to know that I am really really appreciative of the names you gave me. It made choosing one a lot easier. So, thank you all so much!! :)
I will be posting pictures soon, I hope that you agree that Teddy, is in fact the right name for this little bear.

New Pet
I got a new pet today. It was an extremely unexpected event. My sister has her hands full, being pregnant and all, and gave the hamster to my other...equally as busy sister, having a baby and all. Well, my sister that took on the hamster is leaving soon for vacation and wouldn't be able to take care of him.
So...long story short, I asked if I could keep the little guy. I cleaned his cage out and he is the cutest little guy and I am happy to have him! He is white with light brown splotches all over and he is kind of chubby, but like I said, he is the cutest!
But...what the purpose of this post was not to inform you of my new pet, but to ask for suggestions on a name for my new hamster. Any ideas?

almost my birthday
I am so so so excited for my birthday this coming week! I can't believe that I will be seventeen!! It has been a long year and I am ready for a new start. For some reason I feel like being seventeen will be momentous and different, I am feeling older already.I guess I will just have to see how much change happens this year. This is a short post, but what else do you post about your birthday?

Shopping
I had a wonderful day yesterday filled with shopping quality time with a buddy. Every now and then it is healthy to go on a little shopping trip with friends. I didn't spend a lot, but it isn't about what you buy or what you didn't buy that makes it a good experience. (I should have bought that black blouse though!)
As a wise woman once said, whom I just found on google and have no real ideal who they are, "I always say shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist." I have come to the conclusion that shopping is just as good, (if not better) than seeing a shrink. Shopping, when done the right way, can make you feel confident in your buying decisions, feel good about your looks, and make you more aware of your own sense of style. I get to know myself a little better every time I go shopping.
One thing that I hear all the time when I go shopping is that if you don't like it on the hanger at the store, then you won't like it at home. That is so true! I mean, it's not like the merchandise gets prettier when you get home. I had to tell myself a lot yesterday (well, MaryBeth had to tell me a lot yesterday) before I bought something I didn't need, to take a deep breath and walk away.
I am not a clear thinker when it comes to shopping, unless I have a list. So, I often buy things that I really don't need. It is better to leave a store with one good purchase and money left over, than to leave the store with ten bags of useless stuff and no change.
"Anyway, um, um, where was I? Kinda lost my train of thought....Uh, well, uh, OK. Anyway I, I know it's kind of a roundabout way of saying it...But I guess the whole point I'm tryin' to make here is..." I love shopping!!
