A belated thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes yesterday, which I will hunt down and respond to individually, promise! And also for the mysterious package my postie tried and failed to deliver yesterday while I was at work... no idea when I'll be able to get into town and collect it though, since next week is already looking crazy.

Meanwhile, the ferret introductions are not going as well as could be hoped for. Initially I'd thought it was just the novelty of the thing, but Dougal has apparently decided the girls have come solely so he can play with them, whether they like it or not, which results in which ever one he's pestering screaming at him till I intervene. He's completely oblivious to their reaction and just continues on till he's picked up, then goes straight back to annoy them some more as soon as he's put down again.

These are also quite smelly encounters as ferrets over here don't get descented and so if they get scared they will let out quite a pungent whiff - not quite skunk standards but you know it's happened. *sigh* The girls would be great if it was just them, since they're really perky and entertaining, but considering that the reason I'm adding to the number is so they can all live together at some point, it's not looking too hopeful.

Meanwhile, in 'oh god, I'm falling apart' news, I seem to have picked up some kind of RSI variant that makes my fingers hurt. I've had an on-off lack of sensation in my 4th and 5th fingers for years, but it's now turned into an aching feeling that comes and goes during the day. Which means I have to try and get an appointment with the quack next week. Trust me to get something that's not likely to get me signed off work! :P
