Does your bunny regularly fend off viking attacks?

madrabbitwoman, thanks. It makes sense that ducks at the top of the pecking order, so to speak, need to dress well, like Eva Gabor with webbed feet. Bunnies in chain mail I understand. I’d love to see the hawk that tries to snatch that rabbit.

Hmmm… No but he does beat the everliving snot out of my cats every so often.
I belong to a SCA group and they have designated him a “war-rabbit” his full title at the moment is HRH Bellamy of the bunnykins, defeater of cats and nibbler of things he probably oughtn’t

Such great stories! Kudos to everyone!

madrabbitwoman I LOVE a world where ducks and bunnies dress up!

As for me, I turned 40 back in September. Just after a big change at work where b/c of new job titles,etc…to keep my job, I had to take a paycut and radically change my hours. It was a bit of a humble, but I used something an old boss said recently (after losing his job)* “Life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% how you deal with it.”

I decided that I was just going to be gungho with the new job. So after a decade of office work–I’ve now learned how to use a pallet jack! I’m actually getting halfway good at it.

It’s harder than it might seem. My first few tries involved people laughing hysterically at me and taking cellphone photos.

It’s silly, but I’m proud of myself!

  • He later got arrested for whatever it was he got in trouble with…so hmmm. Still it’s a good philosophy.

Yah; congrats! I kinda lost all self-confidence wrt women some time ago and am still working on it.
