Today was Iggy’s cleaning day. I haven’t cleaned his terrarium for maybe 3 weeks? So I figured I’d give my little iguana a bath, clean his terrarium, and give him fresh bedding. So I realized after holding him, he’s getting big, and his cage is getting small. I’m thinking of buy him a big terrarium so even when he gets to his full size, he’ll still fit in it. I’ll be looking around at the local pet/reptile stores and see if I could get a good deal. I visited one earlier today. I had my eye set on a terrarium when I got there. I asked the employee how much it costs and he said $135. I’m still going to look around and see if there are other places where I could buy a new home for Iggy.
I’m kind of bummed because my dad was suppose to order a boxing match on TV today. Manny Pacquiao versus David Diaz. I heard it was going to be a good fight. But my dad told me this morning that he isn’t ordering it anymore. So now what? I can’t watch it live on TV now. Boo! So I have to figure out what to do tonight. Sweetie says he’ll just stay home. I don’t know if I’ll go over to his house or go out somewhere? I’ll see.
Blab later.. Ciao for now.
[EDIT]
I’d like to tell you one thing about me, I’m really not the type of person to be jealous of others. But there is one thing I envy in many people, mostly my sweetie and his family. They are close to each other which is the only thing I envy. It’s been almost 2 years already since my grandma died. After her death, pretty much my mom’s side of the family tore apart. The 2 uncles I was close with, I can’t really talk to them. I’m only close with 2 of my cousins. The rest of them, I don’t talk to because we had arguments about whose mother was right. The fact that my sweetie’s family treats me as their own makes me so happy. I really appreciate it because I feel I have people to turn to when times get rough. I just noticed that this year has been one of my better years. The year my grandmother died, pretty much that year went to hell. Last year was just as bad because of close relationships tearing apart. But now I have my family, my sweetie, his family, and many new friends. I just hope that one day, my mom’s side will put aside their differences and become one family again.

Eek ..I’m sorry about your grandmother. I’m glad to hear that you’re recovering from that.
Isn’t it ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL when your boyfriend’s family treats your like an in-law pretty much?! That’s how I feel about my boyfriend’s family. They already consider me as one of them and don’t see it any different.
Honestly, my dad’s side of the family is the messed up for me. My mom’s side is more okay than not.
It’s so cool that you have an iguana ! Is Iggy hard to take care of?

Haha ..I wonder what a fat iguana is like.
How can you play with an iguana? Do they like ..get attached to people they know? Do they bite?
