h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I might not look like one, but I'm a dormouse. A shiny one in fact. It's just my name's in a foreign language (Welsh).

I saw that you already have the facilities for dormice, and I was wondering if you had room for another one.
I'd be honoured to be an exhibit, and all I'd need would be a little box filled with hay or straw - AND I'm toilet trained!
I won't be very exciting to watch I'm afraid. Unless shiny sleeping things are exciting.

bye for now

You are very welcome.

Yes, we already have another dormouse. I'm sure you will get on splendidly although I am not sure he is shiny.

I'll be no trouble at all!

Amy, darling,

What about for a newly hatched curator . . . I can grow up to work in the museum too? Seriously, if you can think of a position for me, I'd be glad to take it. I don't think I've been around enough to do the antiquities thing, though. Do you have another suggestion?

Actually my name has several meanings: a female curator with a third-wave young feminist attitude; a curator-in-training; and a chick in the sense of hen & chicks (everyone says my boss acts like a mother hen around me--and it's true because we're very alike, she has helped me out when I haven't been able to turn to my own family, and we're very attuned to each other).

Since I found the chick smiley, I have become "zoomorphized" in any case!
