  2. pardon me for asking, but does hopper just go loose around the house or does he live in an aquarium?

  3. He lives in a terrarium but he enjoys the occasional field trip out. He appears to have impeccable taste. He is extremely mellow and seems to be the sort of amphibian version of myself...the medicated housewife. He fits right in here and we hope he enjoys a long and tony life with us... My kids have made it clear, though, when he's gone we are getting a gerbil. Sigh...

  4. Thanks! It's like the shoemakers kids never have shoes or something. My husband whipped it out in a few minutes after I have been BEGGING him forever!

  5. You are killing me with your lamps--and, really, pretty much everything you dig up. Can I put you on retainer as my vintage sourcing agent?
