So... work had been interesting! A couple of weeks ago my boss brought in three little dwarf hamsters. Her son had one, and it had babies... and well we all know how that works. Incest anyone? Anyway. So one or two days after the hamsters come to live at the office, one has a baby! Ya! Little baby hamster, so cute! Pink and furless and squeaky! Two of the hamsters didn't get along to well with one, so they ended up seperated, two in one cage and the third in a seperate cage. They were named: Flora, Fauna, and Merriweather. Anyone recognize the names? Ten points to who ever can guess where they came from! So Flora has one baby... about a week and a half later... Fauna reveals that she has had babies too! Five! (Or six, we really can't tell because they are constantly moving and hiding...)

Back to the story. So the other day, the boss is cleaning out one of the cages and she is carrying a peice of the cage back and it drips on our co-workers desk. We plot the perfect thing... since our co-worker is such a germ-a-phobe... The Boss decides to leave it. CW comes back... and she notices it. "Looks like there is some water on my desk" she says. The Boss, looks at it and says, "Oh, sorry... we had the hamster running round on your desk. I think it may have pee'd on there." CW looks again, "Well, it looks clear, it isn't yellow..." At that very moment the Boss dips her finger in the puddle and licks it. I swear, the look on CW's face was priceless! She was shocked. And of course, I am red trying not to laugh. Really!! : ) It was pretty funny.

**Update! Merriweather just revelead that she has brought children into the world too. Oops. So much for three hamsters. I think the count is closer to 16 or 17. Definately less then twenty still.

I have decided to adopt one, I am keeping him at work though, because I don't have a place for him at home. I have named him Prince Charming (keeping with the Disney theme) but he has already been dubbed PC for short. He is so cute!
