Sometimes I have to laugh at the situations I put myself in but at least others can laugh with me. For example, I have been living in a 3-bedroom house with two other people for about a year. One of the roommates is a “normal” 25-year old chick and we get along great; the other roommate is a 31-year old male divorcee that seems nice but is just plain strange. He thinks that eating fried chicken at home is healthier than eating fried chicken out just because he is eating AT HOME. He DAILY eats an entire pint of Ben & Jerry’s delicious ice cream by himself. He is a perfect candidate to be Jenny Craig's next spokesperson.

But his eating habits aren’t the only thing that is completely strange about this roommate, I discovered last week that this 31-year old dude has a pet HAMSTER. Yes, Particleman fans, he has a pet hamster, as in those little furry rodents that you have as a pet when you are in grade school after begging your parents for weeks if you can have a dog and then to shut you up they give you a hamster.

So next time you want to gripe about your roommate not taking out the trash, just remember at least you aren’t living under the same roof as Baxter the Hamster.
