Merry Kiss-Mouse!

I have the most spoiled rodents in the history of all pets! In anticipation of cleaning their cages yesterday, I went to PetSmart and bought them two more small bird toys (which can double pretty well as toys for mice). So now they have a ladder in one cage, and a hanging chain in the other. Hopefully they won't use them to stage a jailbreak! (Actually, my mousies love me. I can put them in my hands, and they'll run up and down my arms and across my neck and chest, and sometimes even inside my sleeves...)

Today I'm going to (FINALLY!) put together my Christmas tree and decorate it. Heck, I may even post some pictures of the thing when I'm done with it. Maybe even of the mousies in their newly-clean house....

It's just that I have to decorate now or I'll feel like I've wasted the whole Christmas season. I don't know why. I guess I'm trying to recapture the feeling of the holidays in my youth. It's a lot nicer to look forward to Christmas when you know you're going to have a buttload of presents under the tree, that's for sure! It's nice to be buying for someone else, but it would sure be cool to have something under the tree with my name on it too.....*whine, whine*

Oh yeah, and I have a couple of weeks now to contemplate the prospect of seeing Anton for the week after Christmas. I guess that'll have to suffice as my gift this year. I'm just really hoping that something doesn't happen that keeps him from coming out here this year. If I don't talk to him for a week now, I miss him! I had forgotten what good friends we are. And then of course, there's Michael to consider in all of this. He and I are starting to talk some things out, and I feel like I'm making progress in my own growth. Admittedly, I'd like to be in a relationship with him, but he can also be a real butt sometimes. Ah well, all things considered, I'd rather be trying to juggle the feelings of two guys who are interested in me than not having anyone interested in me at all!
