i have lots of animals on my farm.
i have two parrots, three horses, two cats, 4 chickens, 5 guineas, and lots of fish.
i don't have a dog... <sadly> i was wonderin what your favorite pet was?

What kind of parrots do you have? My ex had a cockatoo, and a quaker, and her parents owned an aviary w/ tons of blue and golds and red and greens. Very interesting. It is fun to listen to them talk...they sound so throaty.
As for me, I have a degus gerbil, 8 fish, and 2 dogs. I love them all so much!

reading kristen's thread and not wanting to hijack it, made me think about the first time i heard this tori amos song.
tori and her record company founded rainn(rape,abuse&incestnationalnetwork)back in 1994-i believe calvin klein helped bail them out financially.
it operates 24/7 at 1-800-656-hope.
On December 1, 2002, I was able to tell Tori thank you. I met her at a meet and greet before her concert, and I told her what an inspiration she is. Her music has helped me survive, and has helped me heal my wounds.

oh my god, you guys!
some jehovahs witnesses just came to my house--and of course my latest strategy is to hide and let someone else answer the door, or not answer the door at all.
well, my younger brother is home from his first semester at college and he just happened to be near the door when they came knocking... .
OMG! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Orbit, your bro is the coolest!!!!!

My birthday was this past Saturday, so I had twice the fun!
Between both days I got new set of sheets and comforter, an aquarium kit, nightgown and slippers, money, snowmen ornaments, hip-hop mix cd,
gift certificate for a really niiiiiiice restaurant, a brand new Bop-it(i'll never grow up!), more money, an adorable cherub statue, blank tapes, a new discman, and a dvd player...and we are buying ourselves a new tv!
The best part, though, was spending the day w/ people I love, and watching our neices and nephews open their presents...kids are so cute!!!
just got these two albums today by this great band from washington state called gaia consort.
we have nothing but this day.... cry freedom we have nothing but our chains to lose!.

By the same title, also one of my favorite Dave Matthews Band songs:
(also, a great movie about apartheid in south africa)
Dave Matthews Band
Title: Cry Freedom
Album: Crash
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Cry freedom cry
From a crowd 10,000 wide
Hope laid upon hope
That this crowd will not subside
Let this flag burn to dust
And a new a fair design be raised
While we wait head in hands
Hands in prayer
And fall into a dreamless sleep again
And we wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
All slip away
There was a window and by it stood
A mirror in which
He could see himself
He thought of something
Something he had never had but hoped would come along
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside
Where we are all confined
While we wave hands in fire
Wave our hands
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us,
Slip away
In this room stood a little child
And in this room this little child
She would remain
Until someone might decide
To dance this little child
Across this hall
Into a cold, dark, space
Where she might never trace her way across this crooked mile
Across this crooked page
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside where
We are all confined
Till we wave our hands
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Hands and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
Oh, so be it
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
Through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
