clearly you are divided.

about half of you think my watch affectation is adorable.
a quarter think it's just old.
another quarter thinks i should be ashamed of myself.

right now, my sweatshirt sleeve is covering the sleeve of my turtleneck, so no one can see exactly HOW i'm wearing my watch. perhaps for the good of the blog, we'll leave it that way.

Rabbit update, day 3

People, we have reached detente. We are pleased about this.

In our home, detente means one bunny out at a time, and two bunnies never in the same enclosed space at once.

So one is in the cage [that'd be Squeeze, since she can escape the corral -- we haven't yet figured out HOW, though], and one is running around the house. Or one is in the corral and the other one is hiding under the dining room hutch.

Squeeze has gone from being terrified all the time to giving kisses again and being more herself. We, as bunny caretakers, feel good about this, because it's all we've got.

We've also noted that, at night, when Squeeze is tucked in the cage and Boeing is tucked into the corral, they spend a lot of time nose to nose through the cage bars, calmly and peacefully. They *want* to be together, but their hormones won't let them. Again, this is something we take as a good sign.

Also, I have no idea how I'm going to clip Boeing's back toenails. She is at least 5 pounds of solid bunny muscle and she will not tolerate it in any position. In this case, Squeeze can be hypMOtized but Boeing will have none of it. You should see the state of my wrists from the attempts. Owie.

Two weeks, 5 days till spayday.
