New Job, New Hamster
In case you haven’t heard already, several things have changed in my life recently. First of all- I accepted a job with Keane Creative as an Account Executive. Today marks the end to my second week with them, and so far so good! Everyone I work with is incredibly smart, passionate, and full of energy. I am glad to call myself the newest addition.
With that, Thursday night of this week also marked my last day as a Rock Band Chick with Gamers Combat Zone. I’ll miss them dearly, but it’s time to become more focused and I am extremely happy that I will have more time to spend with Tnarg now that we aren’t on opposite schedules.
Lastly, I got a hamster! It was a spur of the moment buy at Petco with a 10% off coupon that I got in the mail; but she is the cutest little Dwarf Siberian Hamster I have seen! I named her Dynamite and recently placed an inspiration board over her awesome modular Habitrail brand “cage”… more like a “suite”! On it contains a picture of Alfred Nobel, who is known for the invention of dynamite, a no biting sign (since she is new, she has a tendency to do this out of fear), and various phrases such as “Hamsters CAN do tricks” and “Your teeth will NEVER stop growing”.
Speaking of tricks… check out this YouTube video O found of a Hamster doing Hurdles…

It is extremely fun and best of all- you don’t need any fancy skills to come out and play. And if you do have those fancy skills- you can show them off in all your glory to prove what a true “keeg” you are. Go Fire Hamsters!
