About



They call me Jess...

I'm a twenty-something living in a communal home with: my fiance, our two small, still yappy, annoying dogs, our cat, [for the time being] nine sweet rats, and a couple of fish; my mother, younger brother, and lovable gentle giant of a mastiff; my sister, her husband, my one year-old nephew (my favorite person in all the world!), their pet rat, and a bearded dragon; a second sister, and a ball python.  If you've read the blog before, you know: alot has changed
 
Also, we love animals.
 
Let me introduce everyone:
 
There's me, Jess and my fiance Chuck.
Our shihpoos, Zanders and George;
Tootles (Tootle-lucy[fer]), our cat
(who, incidentally, Chuck found eating Ramen noodles in an alley...);
Casper, Wednesday, Dink, Min, Streak, CJ, and 3 unnamed rats
(because they are supposed to find a new home);
and our fish.  They haven't told me their names, yet.
 
Then there's my mom, Mommy;
Kenny, my little baby brother (who is neither a baby nor little *frowny face*);
and Cerberus (Cebby), the hound that guards the gates to...my house.
He'll let anyone in as long as they give him some good, good loving.  So, pretty much, he's big for no reason; and would be really quite ineffective if we ever actually needed a guard dog.
 
My sister, Anne Marie, her husband Nick, and my nephew Toby also live with us.
(Ok, the kid's name is really Nick Jr., but I'm sincerely hoping Toby will stick...)
They have a pet rat named Bruce, and a bearded dragon named William T. Dragon.
 
Finally we have my sister Sarah.  She lives with Bella, the ball python.
Bella is pretty awesome.
 
 
I'll update more as we get to know each other better, so keep checking back!
