| About Me: |
|

Up
until a few years ago, my family bred and showed Arabian
horses, primarily Straight Egyptian lines. I've
recently moved from Mid Michigan to Potomac Falls, VA with
my boyfriend Randy. He doesn't really like the critters, but
he tolerates them because I like them. He's recently become
fascinated with watching my tarantulas eat. I don't think I
could possibly love anybody more than I love him, he's just
wonderful!
I've always loved frogs and when I was little I was
constantly catching frogs in one of our ponds and trying to
persuade my mom that they really would be good pets. While I
never got to keep an actual frog when I was young, I was
permitted to collect tadpoles every spring and grow them up
before releasing them back into the pond. I got my
first frogs (X. laevis) about 8 years ago and just love
them. They have the most interesting behaviors. The
pair have since passed away, but I hope to have more soon.
I've also kept /Bombina orientalis/ and /Pyxicephalus edulis/
in the past. .
I never, ever thought I would have a tarantula. I
didn't like spiders and wanted nothing to do with them.
Right before Thanksgiving of 2002, my younger brother came
home drunk with a tarantula. Apparently his friend
gave it to him when my brother was too drunk to remember
that he hates spiders, and isn't responsible enough to keep
a pet. So, I agreed to take her so that she would at
least get taken care of. Little did I know how that 1
tarantula would spark an obsession.
My offline hobbies include reading (Clive Cussler and Dean
Koontz are my favorites), fishing, and listening to music,
any type, as long as it's not 80's rock.
