I believe the morning sun
Always gonna shine again and
I believe a pot of gold
Waits at every rainbow's end
I believe in roses kissed with dew
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
I believe in make-believe
Fairy tales and lucky charms and
I believe in promises
Spoken as you cross your heart
I believe in skies forever blue
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
You may say I'm a fool
Feelin' the way that I do
You can call me Pollyanna
Say I'm crazy as a loon
I believe in silver linings
And that's why I believe in you
I believe there'll come a day
Maybe it will be tomorrow
When the bluebird flies away
All we have to do is follow
I believe a dream can still come true
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
You may say I'm a fool
Feelin' the way that I do
I believe in friends and laughter
And the wonders love can do
I believe in songs and magic
And that's why I believe in you
You may say I'm a fool
Feelin' this way about you
There's not much I can do
I'm gonna be this way my life through
'Cause I still believe in miracles
I swear I've seen a few
And the time will surely come
When you can see my point of view
I believe in second chances
And that's why I believe in you
Word of my ratty misfortune spread, and it turned out that a friend of the family had a female rat who needed a new home.
Honestly I don't know who needed who more.
I'm going to call her "Anna" for short. :3

She. is. GORGEOUS. I was so surprised to see such a beautiful rat, when my mom brought her home! When I heard about her, I figured she'd be a plain grey rat, but she's a berkshire REX, and absolutely beautiful. Not only that, she's smart as hell, and once she warms up to me, I foresee a wonderful friend.
Skitz knew the sound of the cheese it bag 0.o It never failed. The minute I opened that bag he'd be at the edge of his cage reaching his little paw out trying to grab some no matter how far away I was. He wouldn't do it for any other bag so he got pretty fat on them but that was when he was sick and the vet told me to feed him anything he'd eat so he'd put weight on XD
OH GOD, THEY LOVE CHOCOLATE.
I didn't really know that until recently. I knew they could have it, but it's not something I usually have around the house. Then I came home with some peanut M&Ms, and I was eating them near Fuel's cage -- HE WENT INSANE. I offered him a bit of the shell around the peanut and he damn near bit my finger off. xD
Of course after that the rest of the bag (sans the peanuts) belonged to him. x3

I never tried that. I don't think I could share my M&Ms but they usually get pieces of my plain chocolate bars XD Usually I go in thinking "Okay Domino and Honor get the treat this time (or whichever two that day)" but then they all look so cute and give me the ratty eyes so I end up not actually getting a single bite from that chocolate bar. Thankfully Xander buy's 6 packs XD
Yesh! Speaking of which....my chihuahua is insane 0.0 She flies through the house when Xander gets home and gets so excited she runs straight into the stairs but immediately jumps up and continues the "ZOMG HE'S HOME!!!!" routine. She doesn't like me as much so Xander always feels bad XD
Usually the dogs we've met like me better but she was owned by a man before me so we think she's partial to males.
Usa said if I can make enough to support the extra costs of a second dog I can get a golden retriever or a shiba :3 (gunna go with the golden first and get the shiba down the line).

Completely understandable...its been a year since we put down our dog. We haven't even gone about replacing him since my little brother ends up upset if we try and bring a new dog into the house. Since our dog was kind of a connection w/one of our neighbors now living in Oregon. And w/things as hectic in our lives at times at home; there's not point in having a new dog in our home. But that want and feel for wanting a furry companion in the house is still there. But its good to know that you've gained a sense of completeness again since losing your previous rats
I'm so sorry to hear about that, and about your poor brother's sadness... :( I can totally understand that though, in fact, for the first hour that Anna was at my house, I was very nervous and anxious, and thinking that perhaps I shouldn't keep her, since I was still feeling so upset about losing my last ratties. But, as I sat there and interacted with her, I still missed my babies, especially since she's so shy still, but I know that having her around will help me feel more normal again.
Maybe, instead of bringing a new dog into the house, you can take your brother around to animal shelters, and introduce him to new doggies in a different environment. Then, maybe his reaction will be different?

Haha, yup! She's a rex, which surprised me, too!
And don't worry -- this bed didn't last long intact here, either. Last night, when she finally went upstairs (she's not used to a multi-level cage) and checked out the bed, her first reaction was, 'gee, this would make great nest material', and I woke up with it having gaping holes in the side, and the stuffing pulled into the bottom-level igloo. -_- This photo makes it look intact, but I assure you, it's been mauled.

I think rats are freaking adorable. x3

Eek! What a cutie! ^^ I really aught to get some photos up of my two girls.
Rats are such great pets. Love getting home from work and I keep them by the door so as soon as I come in they run up to the side of the cage closest to the cage and fight eachother over who gets the first hello xD
So adorable. :3
