Well, I never left, because I've been GETTING the FML but I sure haven't been reading, and I sure haven't been contributing. Anyway, I think I've got the time in my life again to be a part of this. For those of you that have asked (and those of you that have wondered silently), I have not updated the ferret name list (http://www.texramp.net/~ahn/addferret.html) in a LONG time. My laptop had some major problems. My insurance paid for a new (much better) laptop, but when I went to install Microsoft Access, I discovered teeth marks in disk number 8. I haven't had the $15 to order replacement disks and I won't have it for awhile so updates are on hold for a bit. The list isn't lost, I just can't add to it yet. I'm very sorry. Anyway, I'm still taking additions so feel free to submit more names. I'm putting the replacement disks on my Christmas list. :( Ferret updates: My four are doing well. Beckett did end up having an adrenal tumor as MANY of you suggested he might (and I prayed he didn't). He hadn't lost any hair back when I was describing his problems (his interest in his sisters even though he's fixed). He DID lose most of his hair from the time I decided, yeah, it's adrenal, to the time we pulled together $300 for surgery. It's growing back now and he's doing well. I have a feeling Max and Applejuice have the same problem. *sigh* Their possible surgeries are on my Christmas list as well. Well, that's it for now. For those of you who remember me, thanks :) For those of you who don't, Hi I'm Anna and there are my furry rats, Beckett, Max.3, Applejuice, and K-Nack. Nice to read you all again.
