Sometimes having gerbils is great; other times it gets depressing...

[empyrealdragon]

Good news: One of the younger gerbils my parents bought me is going to be having babies within the next few days.  The sooner, the better, cuz I'm getting sick and tired of how touchy she's gotten. 

Bad news: I have been noticing a few of my older gerbils seem to be showing their age.  It seems like two are just wasting away...  They act healthy as ever, but they keep getting thinner.  It's gotten a bit depressing to think about how many I've already lost.  8-10 of them died in the past year. 

Maybe I just need to try to find something to do to keep myself from dwelling on these things.  I can't do anything to fix it.  Fortunately, everyone else in the house is asleep, so no having to answer questions about why I've been off and on crying tonight.  Who knows, maybe I'm just overreacting to the bad stuff due to being a little messed up with my medicine schedule lately.  I've known the bad for months.

Lesser bad news: My brother's TV broke, now I get to have him wanting to use mine all the time.  *facepalms*  Why me?

And oddly enough, I feel better now that I have vented a bit.  I guess this thing is good for something.  Also, my parents no longer think I'm on my computer 24/7.  Finally, I can go do stuff online again.
