Fullness of Life

Attended another cousin's wedding at Sheraton Towers yesterday night. Despite coughing fits as I recover from the cold, I still couldn't resist sampling a bit of everything. The table favours were arresting too. Considered passing them on to the hammies to play with, but on second thought that might be slightly inappropriate.


Salt, pepper, shake shake shake

The difficult decision was taken with my cousin to limit our hamsters' daily nutritional intake, after Ham & Bacon parked himself permanently in the food bowl and began building rolls of fat around himself. Though not taken well by the constituents, we nevertheless put the new rule into action while they fought their case. Atkins? Bah. It's the crash diet for you two.

A tumultuous day followed, in which the hams were greeted in the morning by the unspeakable horror of a completely empty food bowl. The five stages of grief follow.

Denial: Although I have ballooned to twice my original size, I blame my genes.


The perfect ellipse described

Anger: Grrrr! *Gnaws wood* Raarraaggghhhhh!!! *Chews metal*


I go on a consumption strike


Must get some iron in my system

Bargaining: C'mon, just one more seed. Pretty pleeaassseeeee?


Surely this huge shimmery eye is worth something?

Depression: Just kill me.


A ham of infinite sadness

Acceptance: ...Never! Give us seeds or give us death!

Well, four out of five ain't bad.

The story does have a happy ending for the hams, as the senior adults in the household unanimously agreed that the cute, plump little dearies deserved their munchables. Hai. At this rate, they will be plumping for their own blog soon enough.


Defend thy seed unto chokehold

Tidied up and partially catalogued my CD/DVD-ROM collection today. School's starting up again - time to get used to it. A soundout for the Xavier Enigma physics engine - how far can you fling a projectile with it?
