Magaidh gone.

rat: $9.99

Surgery to remove tumor: $200

Still dead rat.

Replacement rat (30 day warranty): Free

Euthanasia: $15

University student budget just does not allow for the treatment of a nine dollar pet. Also, taking into cosideration the traumatic experience associated with surgery for an animal to who you can't explain what's going on, I decided warranty replacement rat Magaidh (she was still my favourite, with the cutest white stripe up her nose) would be allowed to live out her days as comfortably as possible before being euthanized.

Ceit's lonely. I took her out when I got home and she was way more snuggly than she ever has been in the past. And she kept sniffing like she was looking for something, and looking at me like, what did you do with Magaidh?

Rare case of Good Business Practices

Dinner and a movie tonight. We watched the number 23, because it looked good in the previews. And it was good. It just stopped for about three minutes right in the middle of it, and we were wondering if the director was messing with us. No, technical difficulties.

You know what you get when they have technical difficulties? Free movie passes. :)
