A little contest. January 23, 2008
I went shopping with a friend on Monday. She was looking for furniture. We didn’t buy any furniture, but I did buy some gum, some sweet zebra print flats with red bows, an alarm clock, a couple of throw pillows, and these:

From a basket full of little stone animals, I picked those two. Not the lion, not the elephant, not the alligator. Those two very specific animals.
YOUR CHALLENGE: Tell me why I picked those animals.
THE PRIZE: The first person to correctly guess why I chose them gets a mix CD customized with the theme of their choice. Answer in the comments.
The smaller one is A HIPPO. I have one! Got it for my birthday becasue I love Hippos. The bigger one Im guessing is a rino.
Oh WHY? I dont know. LOL. Because you have a love for jungle animals like I do.
I KNOW!
It’s from the Christmas song where the little girl wants hippopotamuseses (though she does NOT want a rhinocerus).
Do I win???
Bethany! You do not win. But that is an excellent guess.
darn. Bethany totally took my answer.
DANG IT.
(I was so proud of myself. Maybe that was your subconscious reason.)
A rhino and a hippo…
hmmmm…
Anything to do with pet/nicknames between you and Aaron, or you and Chelsea?
