Whichever would be more helpful- if she wants diminished capacity I would think trashing her would be more helpful- and more fun too.

I look lousy in a turtleneck. Is leather an option?

You know- I think ratling flags would be very cute. Or hamster flags- Maybe Angry hamsters- Goosebumps has a story about a mutant hamster. Did you know we got a hamster? It was only 5 dollars. I felt very strange buying a little life form for 5.00. It seemed wrong. I mean I buy dead cow meat- so I don't know what is so weird about a live hamster- and we aren't going to eat it or anything, we bought it as a pet for my son's birthday. But still, as it scratched around in the paper bag I brought it home in I felt strange. It's been a long time since we had a pet. I always felt strange about buying a life form- I don't like eating other life forms either- but it's easier to forget a piece of meat was alive and sentient than to ignore life and sentience in something that is alive and sentient. Of course THIS hamster went to the very nicest hamster home. We have a Habitrail condo for it- and we added the sky restaurant for her dining pleasure- and she has 3 long tubes that connect to a little sleeping chamber- but she's a bit fat and she doesn't seem to like the tubes much. She almost got stuck in one- but she is very good tempered. She was the only one who didn't try to bite when the saleslady woke the hamsters up for me (I felt bad about that- here she is, sleeping in a pile with her friends and suddenly, whump, into a paper bag and there she is ALONE- of course now that she has found all the treats and realized they are unlimited and all HERS she seems ok with that). She has a little wheel too- she seems to go in there mostly to eat, and stretch. Anyway, I feel very responsible for her. Her name is Princess Leia- well at least that's what WE call her. I don't know what her hamster name is.
