After almost a year without a pet of any kind, I finally decided that enough was enough and decided to get an African Dwarf Frog. I've had 2 in my pet owning history, and I loved both. They are aquatic frogs, and are much easier to keep alive than fish. They're usually quite friendly and entertaining with great personalities. I think they're hilarious personally...
Now that I've established the pros to owning an aquatic frog, I'll get on with the excitement part. As soon as I decided I wanted to bite the bullet and get a frog, I went to the local pet shop and inquired about the possibility of getting one in. They assured me it wasn't a problem and told me to come back the next Thursday...which was yesterday. I was so excited that I practically jumped out of bed, which for this chronic sleep-in-er is very very unusual. I'm pretty sure the last time it happened was the day I left home to come to Scotland! Not even Christmas morning elicits that response anymore.
I prepared a temporary home for my little critter and drove to town thinking over the many name ideas I was given over the past week.
Enter Disappointment...
They canceled their shipment for the week because bad weather had been in the forecast! Need I add that it was a beautiful day? Ugh. They told me to come back next Thursday. I wonder where my frog is at this very moment...not where he's supposed to be...
Luckily the day wasn't completely wasted...check this window display out! It's at the Celtic Clothing shop...
