The hamster is loose.

[Eleven011]

The 2nd grades pet hamster is on the loose. I have had two students stop down to see if I've spotted him. This should be good...

I feel old, now. I remember the gif and MP3, that used to circulate in an email chain, that this video was based off of. In the days of Netscape, before AOL.

Did Jensmom just call me old? Because I remember not only the video but the website and the song that was played on the radio. And now it's running through my head. So, just to make you all suffer along with me:

No no no...

It's stuck in my head.

Somehow I had missed that one til now.

So glad the hamster lives and hope he had some grand adventures!

Unfortunately, the link doesn't play. That's why I edited my earlier post about finding the original. It gave me a sangry (sad/angry) that I couldn't share it.

Yay!!! I bet those 2nd graders are super excited!

Woot!! The second grade teacher should have the kids write stories about Hammie's adventures in the big world.

P.S. Anyone else here old enough to remember the "Hampster Dance" video from the late 90s??

Hmmm...I remember dancing raisins! "I heard it thru the grape vine!!!"

It's a miracle!!!!! Yay, Hammy!

It plays for me! So sorry! I just watched it again for good measure!

Yep, played fine when I pulled it up on YouTube, but when I tried it here...*crickets*

Thanks for the pic tining! I have changed my avatar in honor of the rouge hamster and his happy return!

HAMSTER HAS BEEN FOUND ALIVE!!!

Apparently he has been snacking on some PE shoes.....

YYAAYYYYY! This made me squeal on the inside! Counselor asked why I'm smiling so big.

CAUSE HAMMY IS ALIVE! (she's so not fetch enough to know the haps with Hammy)
