R.I.P. Basil 2007-2008
Let's all take a moment to remember the delight Basil brought us all. More than a pet, we've lost a best friend.

Legs up in the air
Basil was flat on his back
The end came too soon.

Oh Basil, how thou shall be missed.
What a tragedy.
What next?
So sad! Sending sniffs and whiskers of love your way!
sniff! basil sounded like such a lovely creature, I'm sorry for your loss
How does one replace the irreplaceable?
I'm sorry to hear that. At least you got a good haiku out of it, however.
Sorry to hear this.
How are you all holding up? School starts again soon....

What next? What could possibly follow Basil... if we want to get a new rat, we have to ask the landlord, b/c the only reason he let us have him in the first place was b/c he was going to be homeless. (Aren't all the pet store rats too, condemned for terribleness?)
Jeff - Yes Jeff, we're so thankful our poetry is enhanced by this tragedy. ;)
D - Holding up good. Joel has only one year left now of his PhD! And you are finishing your master's, eh?
Claire - you're welcome to list my blog on your site, however it is kind of my husband's blog which I've commandeered... so we both post on it and he is definitely not a woman!
Yes, Heather - I have 3 years left for my PhD - rub it in. ;)
