View Full Version : A very sad week.

My iPod nano got stolen, and my hamster died. :(
I went out to throw away the garbage, and when I came back, I found my door open. I didn't realize anything that went wrong until the next day. My iPod simply disappeared with its dock.
And Harkonnen died of an ear infection. At first, it got goo building up around one of its eyes, and by the time I took it to the vet, it has lost its balance and kept toppling over to one side. Vet prescribed the strongest antibiotics for him, but its condition did not improve. Finally, tonight around 1:30, it stopped breathing, and its heart stopped beating.
It looked so peaceful. Everything looks so peaceful when passed away.
Tomorrow I'm going to bury it in the yard.

Aw man. That's brutal, Yian - sad to hear about the hamster. The stolen nano makes me sick - people are assholes. Hopefully you'll get it back somehow.

damn Yian. I feel for ya. It all seems to happen at once huh? Whoever stole your nano doesn't deserve it and will get their ass handed to them eventually. As for Harkonnen, that just sounded really sad. I hope things get better for ya!

I knew a guy who kept buying hamsters and drowning them in the sink. I saw him do it with two different hamsters. At least your dude didn't die like that. And there's another positive thing about this week. Since you're still young, chances are you're going to have a much more terrible week before you die, so in the future this week is going to seem pretty damn good.

Sorry to hear about that Yian. I had a gerbil when I was 7 yrs old and I was real sad when he died, so I know how you feel. My sincerest condolences.
And the iPod theft really sucks too. A co-worker of mine wouldn't let his 14 yr old daughter buy one even with her own money that she had saved. He just figured something that small, popular, and expensive would be begging to be swiped.

Bah live with it, THIS IS LIFE!!!!!
Shit happens everyday. And it makes it worse if u think about it more. Just think about the good things in life. Oh wait there are none :(
Sucks to hear about your little hamster friend, I had a few birdies come and go (saw them from little eggies to full grown birds to dead ragdolls)
.DAMNIT I forgot the name of their breed.
Oh u better get some camera setup outside your apartment/room. If u do catch the dick who stole your I-pod, kick his/her ass for me :D
sorry for being so crammy, didnt sleep at all last night and I'm just bored out of my fucking skull.

having your own personal pet suddenly die and not do anything is a very sad thing. I literally cried for a month when my guinea pig died. i buried him next to a tree

That sux man. :(
On the other hand, about the ipod, if it was in an apartment or hostel, the thief must have known you have it and know where you keep it beforehand, AND knows your routine to be so brave as to sneak in while there are people inside.
If someone you know "suddenly" gets an ipod soon, you know who the prime suspect is...

Sorry to hear that Yian. Both the finanacial and personal loss. I've never had my own pet per say but I can imagine its hard. I've always wanted a hamster ever since I played Baulder's gate so I feel for ya. Lock you doors though or at least have a contraption set up to shoot the first motherfucker to open it.

Yian, I mentioned I wouldn't be posting much here anymore, but you are the nicest person on this board and was supportive of me when I put my 21 year old cat, Ashley to sleep, so I just want to say that I'm sorry to hear about your pet hamster dying.
I also hope there's a way to catch the person who stole you I-pod...it's strange that they went right in and found it and only it to steal....makes me think they might have been in your place before and knew where you kept it and the dock ? ? ?

Sorry Yian, it sucks when pets die. :(
I agree with what people are saying. To come in and go straight for the Ipod, they must have known where it was and have been there before. It's gotta be somebody you know, so keep on the lookout.

Thanks everyone. :) This week definitely sucks but there are somoe good things happening, too, so I think I will be fine. And yeah, I bet there are more shit ahead in my life waiting to get my ass kicked, so this is a good chance to learn to deal with them.
And about the theft, I think the chance is very good that these guys are going to steal something again. Yeah, I should keep my eyes on this.

I say it's time for you to buy a gun, and keep one in the chamber.. they now know that you're an easy target so they'll be back when you least expect them.. shoot a motherfucker.
As far as stabbings go I wouldn't stab someone in the heart, that's the easy way out.. torturing someone slowly to death is the way to go.

Um, actualy my hamster looked a lot more peaceful than that when it died... The one in that pic looks like it had too much beer.
And now come to think of it, I should have taken some pictures. Oh well.

Sounds like someone needs to be stabbed for the ipod stealing. As for the hamster, it sux :( I know. Had a hamster when I was like 10 and the fucker kept escaping. Eventually he was killed by one of my cats. Served him right, but it still sucked.

Hey, once again, thank you everyone. I feel much better now. Feels a bit weird that it is gone now, and I am once again all by myself in my apartment. I have always been alone until this little thing came along. Now that, every once a while, I still worry about the lights I turn on, and the noises I make, just like I would disturb the hamster, only then to realize that it is really gone. Strange feelings.

Well did I tell you peeps about my cat w/ a broken leg that I kick everyday. Ah. Good times. He once had all 4 working legs and came to me when he was a little bugger. Fed him and then he left for 2 years and came back w/ a broken leg. Now I just kick him around to make my son happy. Fuckin' A!

The reason I had this one was because it came to my apartment. I would never go out and buy a pet myself.

why not get another one man? i mean cant you see that youre lonely without the furry little guy? maybe the reason he came to you in the first place was to show you that you need a pet in your life? you need someone or something to love and maybe love you back. i say grow up and go buy one. if not for me, for the little guy who introduced happyness and love into your empty heart and apartment
