Crush Hour Traffic

Mind you, I’m not complaining. Overall, it’s comfortable; the atmosphere is convivial, the staff is attentive and personable, and I feel a sense of belonging. But I really must say, for what they’re charging…

… this health club really could spring for another treadmill.

Hey, times are tough, J.S.

    Oh, how I wish someone would start the wheel turning. Multiple hammies on a wheel–such fun.

    Am I first?

        when I think about it, my example would be ham-ku [from a hamster's point of view]

        haiku might be

        Oh, wish the wheel would
        turn. Many hammies on wheel
        together. Such fun!

        Can one haiku without knowing it? I haven’t been familiar with this form since grade school, which was eons ago.

    Obviously, the spinning class is very popular. But be careful, you could pull a ham-string.

  3. You know it does ham-per your napping when you have to share!

    It looks like an early start to the health club post-holidays crush.

  8. Mary (the first) says:

    Made me think of that saying, “If you’re not the lead dog, the view never changes.”… hammies 2 and 3 (especially 3) don’t even get to see the road ahead. (Luckily for them, hammie tocks are undoubtedly adorable to match the rest of the hammie.)

    Aww! My son had 3 robo hammies (Peanut, Butter and Jelly . . . of course) that always did this. Sadly they have all gone on to a better place. Truly the sweetest hammies and they never smelled at all! xxoo
