Sphinx at Home

What's Sphinx's house like? Well, since "hellish" is a rather general term, I'll give you a bit of a tour, as it were. ^_~ *blinkblink... stare* Hold up a sec.. You actually clicked the link?! Whoa.. You must be bored. o_O Nehehe. ^_~ Anyway, these are the freaks I live with... o.O Scroll at your own risk. o.o;

Now, seeing as you got here from the "About Sphinx" page, I'm assuming you know a bit about me, ne? You don't? Why not!? That's what the page is for! O_o;; Oh well. ^_~ This is about my family, anyway, not me. At my house, you can usually find me either tapping away at the comp or with my nose wedged in some novel or other. This is when I'm not at college or work. O_o Not that I'm left with much free time after all that anyway.. LOL
Moving on. Scary, isn't it?

First off is my dad, aka: Mr. Ebay. @_@ Dad has a fettish for all things old and useless. Gotta love it. He says he can fix just about anything, but if you put a computer in front of him... well, let's just say he had a little trouble locating the "power" button. ^_~ Dad is usually very up on things.. always knows what's going on. O_o Er.. yeah.. ;)Sorta... kinda.. hell, he's clueless. :p Most common phrase: "What?"

Next, me mom. She's a bit of a worry wart. O_o Just a bit. After all, you never really do know when a raving axe murderer will come flying out of nowhere to hack your brain into a pulp, right? ... I know what you mean. x__x Well, who can blame her, eh? She's a stressed woman, after all. What with dealing with her job, her family, and all the other problems that come with being a mom. Ne? Uh... right.. I'm gonna go hide in my room now. O.o

My step-bro gets a token effort here. He's a real prize winner. x_x Intelligence is his strong point. Yeah... @__@ He doesn't actually live with us anymore. He's off smoking pot, getting drunk, and other assorted acts of genius. His nickname is most often: "Dumbass". ^_~

And the last member of my nuclear family, my bro! He's... er.. a bit affectionate towards his video games. o_O Don't, like, get between him and his X-box or PS2. Heh. It's not a pretty thing. I call him The Troll. He never comes out of his little 'cave' unless he's hungry, or wants something of yours to steal and hord somewhere. @_@ Gotta love sibs. ^_~ Nah, Trollboy isn't THAT bad. I mean, he only steal--er.. borrows my stuff some of the time. And he usually gives them back... broken.. but that's alright. And he only interrupts me when I'm busy, and not when I'm sleeping or something... er.. Baah. Frig it. He's a pain in the butt! :p

Okay, now, on to the fuzzbutts.. aka: "pets". Now we meet the real rulers of the house. ^_~ And the most insane buggers too.

First, we start with the old fart... er.. the beautiful feline goddess. She's a very sweet girl, always walking up to you and rubbing against your leg... and if you don't pet her immediately, she swats you one. o.O;; Eh.. Nice girl.. heh.. Her given name is Breezy, but, well, her temperment has earned her a few nicknames: Bitch, PMS Queen, Grump, and my personal epithet, Princess Ozma Fuzzybutt. Her royal highness doesn't appreciate you looking down on her, and she'll certainly let you know it.. with claws.. x_x lots of claws. Dun piss her off, okie? o_o;;

Next is Lacey. AKA: Slobberjob, bozo, and "Waaaaacey!" She's extremely intelligent... for a brick. Her way of saying 'hello' is to run up, wiggle like a moron and drool all over you. O_o Fun. When she's not 'blessing' you with her slobber, she's usually walking into walls and harassing Breezy, though she never seems to remember that pissed kitty = sharp claws. O_o Brick-brain.

Last of the 'free range' guys, is Jasper. He's known around the neighborhood as Mr. Badass, Mr. Small Animal Murderer, Mr. Deplete the Bird Population. x_X He's rather, erm.. sleepy. Sometimes I wonder just how he manages to catch all the stuff he deposits on our doorstep. O_o I mean, dude, he doesn't move! Maybe he borrows them from other cats or something. x_X Lazy bum. ^_~

Epidote's next. What's that you're saying about his name? Hey, be nice.. He was going to be called "Rattrap", but that would have been a bit of an insult to everyone's favorite rodent Transformer. Eppy's a bit..er.. neurotic. Don't even say the word "plot" around him, or he'll start to spaz. He's just a bit of a 'fraidy cat, heh. o_O Er.. fraidy rat. o_O

Last, but certainly not least, is Greywacky. Grey's a bit fond of his treats. Er... a little too fond. It's a world shattering event if you can actually get him to move.. 'cept for reaching for his next meal, anyway. Lardass. Keep your fingers away from this dude. He usually takes anything he sees in front of him as edible. Fingers, wood, his bowl, Eppy's tail... No wonder Epidote's nuts. His roomie's trying to eat him! O_O;;
