Before I left for Florida on Thursday I decided to mess up a bunch of things in my house, because, you know, I'm just that coordinated and put together that anything I do at the last minute ends up totally fucked up.
So, I left the halter on Hines when I went to the gym and he chewed it in half. I came home to find it midway around his back COMPLETELY CHEWED IN HALF.
I never got to PetCo to get more cat food and they had none. Poor Gary was starring at me and meowing like a hungry wolf. Wait ... wolves don't meow. So, maybe he was growling.
Then? I decided to give the snake a full bowl of water. So I poured water through the screened top into her bowl. I noticed that she had pooped since her last feeding. When you only eat every two weeks, you only poop twice a month. Just trust me on this one. So, I saw the little neon green thing that is her poop and do not ask me how it comes out that color, for I have no idea and have given up guessing. And, when I show it to people, like, on a napkin and I'm all "WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS?" ... for some reason, they run screaming from me.
So, I had to open the top of the tank to clean out the poop. As was reattaching the lamp, it broke into like, three pieces. Since it is burning hot I couldn't just hold it and screw it back together. So? I put it on the floor and got a towel from the kitchen which took all of three seconds.
Who knew that carpet would burn?
In three seconds?
And what is that damn horrible smell?
Holy mother of hell! The carpet began smoking. Eeek! I was late for the airport, holding onto a burning hot heat lamp and cursing my brother once again for leaving me, ME!, to watch his snake.
The truly priceless thing here is that I'm using my blog to tell my fiancee that I burned a hole in the carpet.
