new shirt

After much searching, I have found Melissa's Christmas present. It's a shirt. But not just any shirt. It's a Gerbil Shirt.

Now I know your asking yourself, "Self, why would Melissa want a shirt with a gerbil on it?" And the answer is simple: because it's not a shirt with a gerbil on it.  "What?" you say, "I thought you just said it's a gerbil shirt!" And that I did...but it's even better than a a shirt with a gerbil on it, it's a shirt with a gerbil (or potentially gerbils) on it. This is an important distinction and something that in no way could possibly go unnoticed.  Especially because the gerbils in question ARE ALIVE!

Yes, that's right. I said it. It's a gerbil shirt with live gerbil(s) on it, going about their merry gerbil way, running around in little gerbil tubes, while the wearer (Melissa) continues having perfectly normal conversations with nobody. This is because nobody wants to be associated with someone who has gerbils running around their shirt. Ever. For any reason. Unless that reason is to fill the little gerbil tubes up with DeCon.

I still think Melissa will like it. Just look how happy she's going to be:


On a slightly related note, I don't think a gerbil would fill Bruce up.

On a slightly unrelated note, 'gerbil' is a funny looking word.

Nick wants to know if they make these shirts for Guinea Pigs...he says if so, he would love one.

This is NOT what Melissa talked about wanting for Christmas when we visited last night! BTW, I love the new blog picture. Bruce certainly has grown!
