The Sunday Riddle #27

Well I was utterly flabbagasted when I had a look at todays stats. Some how without my daily post today I have hit my highest views of the daily – nearly 200 hits today! I am chuffed to pieces! I was starting to lose faith in my blogging abilities with the whole lack of time thing but this really has pepped my confidence right back up there!

So I am delivering todays post with a BIGGGGGG smile on my face!

Last weeks riddle was clearly a tricky one! It stumped you all!
But even that can’t ruin this good mood!!!

The riddle was this:
When I go forward I am really rather heavy. But when I go backwards I am not. What am I?

The ANSWER:

A TON.
Now think about it, process it a little. Ton is heavy and ‘ton’ written backwards is ‘not’ so there we have it! A riddle to baffle your friends with over the Christmas hols!!

And for this weeks riddle I have tried to be a little festive! But there was always the risk of it sounding like a cheesey Christmas cracker joke. So here we go folks!

Who beats his chest and swings from Christmas cake to Christmas cake??

The Hourglass Figure Diet

If you are a human being and if you want to know how to get that hourglass figure, then you should click here because this blog post is not for you.

I probably should have mentioned in the title that I’m not talking about the hourglass figure for humans. With a blog called Hamster Diaries did you seriously think I’d post about human dieting? Don’t be daft! This is the hourglass figure diet for HAMSTERS.

When looking through my picture folder at the thousands of photographs (yep, genuinely several thousand), I saw a picture of Casper rocking the figure that women around the globe would die for. Kim Kardashian, you got nothing on this guy!!

So lets have a look at the hottie himself :D

HOW DO YOU LOOK SO FABULOUS DARLING?!!?

So for all you green-eyed hamsters out there, here is the hamster hourglass diet breakdown.

There is a very simple 3-step system to the hamster diet (remember: this is only to be undertaken by hamsters, mice, gerbils, rats and guinea pigs) so all you furries out there listen up!!!

Step 1: Food
Breakfast – 1 to 2 cheek full of hamster muesli and no more, or less, than 6 mouthful licks of the water dispenser.
Elevensy’s – half a cheek full of muesli (nap with the crunchy stuff in your cheeks until lunch so that your slobbery cheeks soften the hardest bits)
Lunch – another cheekfull of muesli AND the softest bits stored from your cheeks. Take a good 10 licks of the water dispenser. Squeak at your human until they feed your a treat. Preferably a yoghurt drop. Coz they’re totally yum.
Afternoon Tea – Have a good 4 to 5 slurps of water and retire back to bed until its dark in your cage.
Dinner Time – Sit in your food bowl and scoff as much into both cheeks as humanly possible. The fatter the better for this stage. Store half of your scavenged goodies in your bed for midnight nibbling ease. Fill the rest of your belly up with water.
Midnight Snack – Nibble some of that food you stored earlier. Leave the food bowl bee. Also lick the water dispenser as loud as you can until your human squeaks at you.

Step 2: Exercise
The exercise routine for this diet is very strict and must be completed daily.
3+ hours on the wheel/saucer. Work up a sweat.
1+ hour of monkey bar climbing.
30 minutes + of mountain climbing on your human.

Step 3: Peeing
Release all that excess water weight at every opportunity. Especially when being held by your human – they LOVE it when you wee on them. . . . .

So there you go!! That is how you small furries can get that hourglass figure. Seriously, this is from Casper’s mouth – this is exactly what he did to get them gorgeous hips and tincy waist…
If only it were as humanly simple eh.
FETCH ME A FLYING SAUCER!! :P

10,014 Views, 94 Countries, 186 Posts, 1,616 Comments, 18 Videos And Counting… :D

Looking at my WordPress stat’s page is usually a pretty routine affair.
I check how many views I get for the day, have a secret celebratory dance, and then have a closer look at what posts have been looked at most blah blah blah. As fellow blogger’s you know the drill.

Well yesterday I had a littler more reason to dance than usual.
I have crept over the 10,000 all time views border.
TA-DAHHHHHH!!

So I thought my post today would be dedicated to a few statistics from the Hamster Diaries blog which actually will act as a reminder that my blog is actually quite a hit :) Blogging everyday is not the easiest thing in the world and takes a fair amount of discipline and patience to get into a routine.

Hamster Diaries Meets Facebook

I never thought I would spread the blog over to Facebook, but I feel I have come to the right time to try and stretch my hamster legs over to the dark-side! Hopefully, this will make it easier for my readers to keep up to date with the hamsters and all the fun things I have lined up for the next few months. 

I have set up a little Facebook like box over on the sidebar (over on the left! The left!!) so you can just click like and ta-dahhh you’re done! :D

I have linked it up to WordPress (I think) so basically the posts will show up on the Facebook page as well as on here, so you dont have to miss a thing! I feel like I am really branching out here, First the Etsy shop, now Facebook! Whatever next!! (Sorry Twitter, I am not going there :P )

As well as the posts going there too, I can post random pictures that don’t quite fit in posts and all the videos that didn’t quite cut it in the WordPress World. You would be surprised how much stuff I have that doesn’t make it onto the actual blog.

Think of it this way, the Facebook page will include all the BONUS FEATURES the blog doesn’t quite cover.. Its like the Disc 2 of the
Hamster Diaries DVD, with all the behind the scenes bits, all the pictures that don’t make it onto the blog, all the quick stories I don’t have enough of to fill out a proper post and all the EXTRA’s that WordPress just cant include. I intend to keep that just as uptodate and current as the blog without spamming anyones news feed, so click LIKE and you will make my day!

Go on… make my day!
You know you want to! :D
