Packrats anonymous...

Hey all - How's it hangin?

I assume everyone on here knows what a packrat is right?

For those who don't (or think I mean the animal): A packrat is a type of person who is characterized as being reluctant to discard property, even after others consider its useful value depleted.

So what's this have to do with me?

I just realized, through the year and a half living here with the girlfriend, i've managed to amass a collection of magazines which rivals my pile of SAIT textbooks (in height). Most of them are quite old - British GQ and FHM, Esquire, various music magazines. All of them I've read - and re-read some.... but for some reason I just can't seem to get rid of them.

Now - I don't see the problem with having a few laying around... maybe a couple in the bathroom (thankfully neither does Kat), except when 3/4 of the room in your cabinet is full of these magazines, there's an issue.

So, the first step to recovery I suppose is admitting there's a problem. PASS! YAY!

next step is seeking help - uhh... wait, who the heck do you call for "packrat's anonymous"?
I'm the same way with lots of crap - music on the computer's a problem... I once filled a 20gb harddrive with music - most of which is never listened to.

Anyone else have this problem?

Other than all this really not much to report - the puppy hunt continues. Not looking at a Miniature Pinscher anymore. We're now on the waiting list for a purebread - shorthair - Chihuahua!

Yup - that's right, a chihuahua will soon be joining our family. This'll be an interesting experiment. But now we've got a new problem: NAMING IT! we can't think of a good name to save our lives!
We're hoping to get a male puppy in either of the two below colors:


Now - we've requested a male pup (male's outnumber females 4 to 1), and he should be arriving in May/June.

We're considering "Rocco", but are at quite a loss otherwise... Any ideas people?

- And no - we're not naming it Lil Brush - or anything along those lines - it's a dog people - not a pre-pubescent-rap-turd.

So - that's about all for B-Rush today..

Have a good one folks.

What about Indy? That's our cat's name. It's a good name, for a male or a female and it's not too embarrassing shouting it out.

Last night i ended up right out on the street in my robe at 4:35am shouting it, and nothing except the fact the wind was picking up embarrassed me!

Other pet names we 've had include:
Poppy - our Maltese dog
Sport - our childhood cat
Cactus, Leeroy and Loddy - Boyfriend's dogs. I believe there was also an Alana that fit into that category too now i think about it... Just kidding babe!

NAME BRUSHES BITCH (DOG) CONTEST:

Now - I'm curious (to the poster above)...

Specifically "NAME BRUSHES BITCH (DOG) CONTEST:"

Now I've got two thoughts on this statement - and I don't mean to be a shit or anything but..

first off, you might have missed it, underneath the photos, I did say MALE pup, therefore it wouldn't be a bitch at all.

secondly - now, remember I'm just curious about this, it's more of a query than complaint.

Why say bitch? I mean, It seems obvious to me that you knew either people would be offended by bitch, so therefore put dog to make sure they wouldn't. Or you thought they wouldn't know that a bitch is a female dog (although, every 5th grader knows that...).

So, either way, you felt it necessary to put (dog) in there.

You knew people would possibly be offended.

why say bitch in the first place then?
