An Eleven o' Clock Scare and a Hamster Fight.......

Once upon a time (less then a week ago but I forget which night), it was Eleven o' Clock, CST, during the Summer (Summer weather anyhow.) I heard some strange screaming like someone yelling for help. Then silence. Then more screaming. So I run upstairs to get Dad. Didn't want to call 911...yet. So he comes down, and he heard it too. And he goes outside to investigate. Once again, it seems like someone calling for help. So Dad calls the big 9-1-1. The Police are coming, says the Police 911 Call Manager (or whatever they're called.) The we see some of our Mom and Dad's friends walk down the street. So Andrew and Lisa (M and D's friends) tell us that there are two teenage boys goofing off down the street. Bigtime goofing off. So the Police finally get to the street about an hour later (strange, they're ususally here in about 3 minutes.) By that time the kids were long gone.

As for the other title, our hamsters got in a bigtime fight today. They usually fight playfully (kind of like rough-housing.) But this time Lucky started to look a little funny in the face. So I got Anderson and asked if she looked funny, as indeed she ddi. He said yeah, so we turned on the lights to get a better view. Sure enough there was a nice little part of her hair missing right over the left eye, and, this is gruesome, a small amount of red stuff drizzling down the side of her eye. Anderson got the little hamster and started crying. After all, our hamsters haven't been wounded like this before. So we ran some testing, got them both out of the cage, and let them run around on Anderson's bed. They were fine when placed next to each other out of the cage. however, upon re-entry, Clutzy was on top of Lucky (both were squeaking up a storm.) Somehow they have seperated their differences but that was a nice sized scare.

I think my blog is being revived..........
