Happy Holidays to everyone!

I will be vacationing in Boca Raton until after the New Year, so unfortunately no updates until then. I did want to wish everyone a Happy Holidays and an Excellent New Year!

Best Wishes,
Cameo

The Results

So voting has closed for NameChoice 2007 (tm) and with 100% of votes tallied at all the precincts, the results are in.

I've created an electoral college system far too complex for your human brains to understand, but basically I will be keeping my name.

I continue to reserve the right to change my middle name at any time.

Thank you all for your votes!

My friends

I thought I would spend some time to introduce my playmates around the house so that you all might better understand my relationships with them.

From right to left there is Bluefish, Kogepan, Green Moose, Crackle Bird, Purple Mouse, Orange Mouse, and Green Mouse jr.

I have a special and unique relationship with all of them and I’m very glad they are in my life.

Bluefish was a gift from my daddy that he sent to me special in the mail. Bluefish likes to run away from me, but I always capture him. One day I hurt one of his legs on accident, so he can’t run fast anymore, but I’m so happy to have him and we play all the time.

Kogepan was my very first pet. He likes to fly through the air and then I go catch him. I don’t understand why he always wears a scarf, so sometimes I tear his scarf off (especially in the summertime). He wasn’t originally my pet but I kept grabbing him from the kitchen to play with him, so eventually he came to play with me.

Green Moose is also one of the first toys that I ever had. He is a lot of fun to play with, but he’s very old so I can’t be too rough with him.

I like crackle bird a lot; he is so noisy! Especially at the early morning hours, I like to hug him really tight and roll around. He makes crackling noises to show that he is having fun!

Purple Mouse wears this wonderful perfume! He slides around on the floor a lot and I can follow the scent around, even when it is dark. He was a gift from two very special friends and I treasure the play time we have very much.

Orange Mouse and Green Mouse Jr! These are also two of my oldest friends and they were also a gift from a very special friend. They are so much fun because they make noises AND wear a special perfume that I just love. Sometimes the three of us get together and go absolutely crazy! It’s so much fun!

Well, I think it's time to go play now. I have so many friends and so little time!

A rose by any other name...

So I've been thinking lately, should I change my name? My name Cameo is very unique and I often get compliments about it. But sometimes I'm in the mood for something new. After thinking for a while about it, I've come up with four options:

• Miffy
• Bufferpants

or

• Miffy Bufferpants

and of course the usual

• Cameo

If I keep my current name, I can always go by some pretty cool nicknames, like:

Camembert
Camiepants

And you can sing the national anthem of my homeland but replace the name Canada with Cameo.

I consulted a few family members, and they think I should put it up for a vote. So here I am, asking for your input on one of the four options. The change will be official pending the results!

P.S. I tried uploading some pictures, but the blogger photo site is down so it will have to wait until next week!

A new recliner

Hi Everyone!


I'm so excited. My new recliner just arrived on Saturday and I've been so busy enjoying it I haven't had time to post. I'll just need to get a few pillows and maybe a nice blanket for the up-coming winter. I've posted some pictures below so you can see how nice this chair is!

Window to the world

For those of you who haven't been to my apartment, let me describe it to you a little bit. The most important part is the back entryway- where my kitchen is. There you'll find my food and water. The next most important place is my room. It contains my own bathroom. I'm so glad I don 't have share. Then there's the windows! I have 4 favorite windows. The first is in the front of the house - there, every morning, I greet my friend chipmunk and squirrel. Then there's the living room window. That's where I say hello to the birds in the morning. There's this little edge where all the birds hang out because there is a roof gutter there. I alternate between the front window and this window, as this gives me the best view of my neighborhood. I'm writing about this, because, as winter approaches, all my friends go into hibernation. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but that's what I've been told. Anyway, the winter months are lonely for me as the windows are always closed. I only have my roommates to say hello to when the get home in the evenings. I'm reminding myself of this now, because soon winter will be here, and I won't see my friends again until April. My other favorite window is off limits because I don't have access to the old office anymore. That window was smaller but it offered great views of the chipmunks and the birds! It was noisy though. Then there's the tiny window in my room- I don't usually hang out there, but sometimes when I want to see what's going on in that direction I take a peek. I guess it's not one of my favorites, but it is one of the ones I use.

I also like to drink water out of flower vases. Opps, my computer time is up. Bye!

My addiction

Hi everyone. Sorry for the delay in posting. I'm going to try and update at least once a week, but I never get my alloted time on the computer!

I wanted to use my blog to talk a little about something important to me. I have a slight, let's say, tendency, to want to chew on the wires in my home. I often wonder what motivates me to do this, but it seems to just strike me at one moment and I find something on the ground that looks good to chew, like that one TV cord (mmmmm, tv cord) and I just start chewing away on it. I get all foamy at the mouth, and this makes me think that it might actually be a physical addiction because of these changes in my physiology.

You can see an example of my handy work below. Note that this is SPECIAL, "critter-proof" cord. A lot of good that did! Hahaha. Suckers. Notice too how I almost completely chewed through it. I've really been improving my technique.

Sometimes I want to stop, but I think this would be really hard. I tried a little cognitive-behavioral therapy, but when it came down to it, I forgot everything the therapist told me. I don't want to take any meds because I can't be bothered with a schedule or anything like that. I don't even know really why I would want to stop. It's something to do, just like going to the movies or killing a bat (or two). Perhaps the problem is with society and its rigid rules against cord chewing. I'm not going to change for anybody I've decided.

And to all my anti-cord-chewing detractors. I say pffffffffffffffftttttt!

My first post!

Hi Everyone!

My name is Cameo I've decided to brush up on my computer skills and start a blog so that everyone can keep up with me and all the things that I'm doing. I just wanted to say hello and share some pictures with everyone.
