It all started on the blustery day of January 15th. The year was 2005 and my roomate, Lauren Anderson, had just
returned from her peice of crap work-study job, volunteering for the humane society. So, I am sitting on my laptop (not
on it, on it- just using it) when she asks me the fateful question that would change our lives forever, "Amy, how do you feel
about hamsters?"
Well, truthfully I didn't think much about hamsters. My only memory was of this disaster of a rat my 4th grade
teacher Mrs. Childers let me keep one summer. To make a long story short he was a fiesty little beast and constantly
bit the bejesus out of my hands. I hated that thing... I don't even remember its name. It was a bastard.
But, I found myself drawn to the prostpect of illegally keeping humane society hampsters in the confines of my dorm room--
so we rushed to wal-mart and bought a pretty sweet town house for them. An hour later, we were loving hamster mothers
and I do not think we could ever or would ever go back. They are and will forever be etched upon our
hearts.
On Sunday, January 16th they offically came to be known by thier full names: Saddleback Douche Bag Ramirez
(she really is a douche bag), Dionysos Atlas Petrovsky, and Napoleon Charlemagne Alexander. Welcome to the great big
wide world that is our dorm room guys!!
