Science Day 2012
I should have known something was up when Sheldon came over to our house early one morning. Firstly, it was a very cold morning, frost on the cars! Sheldon does not like cold weather (and neither do I). Secondly, Sheldon came over at all. You’ve probably noticed if you’ve been reading this blog for a […]

My Piig and Me
Thanks to everyone who helped me pick out a name for my new guinea pig co-pet. He is now saddled with the name Winston. I guess it fits him because he is a very dignified and refined animal, especially for a guinea pig. And he is not one to rush off in a panic. He’s […]
Name That Piig!
The new piig is having a real identity crisis! I have put all the name suggestions–and there are a lot of them!–in a poll on the right side bar.
Guinea Who?
This little guy came to live at our house on Monday. He doesn’t have a name yet. Melly’s been calling him Piig, but I don’t think that is a good name. So we’re going to have a contest with prizes and everything to name my little co-pet. In case you don’t know what he is, […]
Capybara Comic (Part 3)
Do you remember this photo of me from when I visited the Buda Public Library? Well, that very helpful and non-frightening young man who is petting me is Nic Lara. Nic is an amazing person and a serious capybara stalker, especially for one so young. And he is also a graphic artist!

The Serial Pooler
Everyone knows that I, like all capybaras, love the water. But maybe you didn’t know that I have two pools. I have the little green wading pool that you see in the photo above and I have my big blue pool. I use them both. In fact, usually I get in my green pool on […]
A Scratch on the Porch
One morning I was sleeping on the front porch, as I usually do, when Melly appeared with her camera. Melly doesn’t always have time to spend with me on the porch, she usually has to go to work, or work from home or clean the house, but on days when she does have time, she […]
