Hey, again! Glad you were able to get back onto Pet Talk!

Let's see......

My RB pets are Dusty and Bruno. I only put them in here because they WERE my childhood. Dusty, a Siamese/Himalayan mix, was my tenth birthday present, and, Bruno, a red lonhaired dachshund/cocker spaniel mix, was given to me when he was a year old and I was thirteen. Bruno passed in June of 2003, and, Dusty joined him in December of the same year. Awesome friends, both of them.

I lived with Chris, now my ex, and, we got Lock, a Bengal (I miss him, he stayed with Chris), and, Finn, a yellow lab. Finn, of course, came with me! I also have a hairless rat named Luli and a dwarf hamster named Houdini Jingles.

Finn is the center of my heart. He will never replace Bruno, but, I love him more than anything. I know that makes sense to everyone in here. He's simply fantastic. He still thinks he's a lap dog, and, just crushes people with love. Ha ha. Fifty pounds of it! I can still pick him up and put him around my shoulders, and, he will just chill up there. He loves his rubber fire hydrant (not a kong brand, but, so far, indestructable) and his tire biter. He loves plush toys and squeakers, but, those are rairly brought out, because all he does is eat them.

As for me, I'm a 28-year-old, native South Carolinian, living in Dallas, Texas. Looking for new work, hopefully will start a new job by November 1st. I love the outdoors, and, want to get into more outdoors activities. I've never been competitive, but, I like watching sports, especially hockey. I love horses, and, wish I could be around them daily. My favorite things are music, photography, movies, and, animals, not necessarily in that order. I love trying new drinks and new foods, and, I love meeting new and different people. I'm rarely shy, and, I'm not a conservative person at all. I watch very little television, but, will turn it on for background noise sometimes. But, I love the Family Guy and most of the other adult swim cartoons on Cartoon Network. I used to watch Cheers all the time. I will sometimes watch animal planet and the music channels (MTV, VH1, CMT). I also like history and forensic type shows. I hate reality tv, but, love Fear Factor and Blind Date. Street Smarts is another show I like. I try to eat well (tons of fruits and veggies, no sodas, that kind of thing) and I try to stay active. The operative word there is TRY.

My parents and two step brothers live in Columbia, South Carolina and my two brothers live about ten minutes away from me. And, yeah, I talk a lot. Sorry, guys, I'm super bored!
