I'm kind of loving you.

So when the movie "Flushed Away" came out several years ago I read several articles that...

Wait. Lets just go on and tell my Mom and anyone else with rat issues to please stop reading this. 

Alright...so anyway several articles came out that talked about how rats actually made much better pets than hamsters or guinea pigs. 

We got to test this theory out recently. 

The oldest minion's class has a pet rat named Templeton. 

He came home over a weekend with us.

"Hi. I'm Templeton."

I was kind of into him.

He has nice eyes.

And a crazy long tail.

The minions totally loved him.

Especially the little one. 

She would stare at that cage for hours. 

I think it made her think of things that are warm and cuddly and fuzzy. 

Apparently it made him think of his belly button. 

I mean he was kinda cute. 

I was kind of loving him. 

I kinda had visions of getting one. 

This guy though...

He was not loving him so much. 

It didn't make him think of warm, cuddly, fuzzy things or of his belly. 

Party pooper. 

I think it was the tail.

It would hang out and lay on the table. 

It weirded Billy out. 

Sorry, Templeton. 

I was kind of loving you. 

The husband kind of wasn't.
