Alexandra loves animals. She even went so far as to write a book called Beware Dobermanns, Donkeys and Ducks. She cares for many, many animals in her home.
In my life I have cared for four animals: one beta fish, two goldfish, and a Siberian dwarf hamster named Mario. I named him Mario because I'd recently gotten Nintendo. At night, Mario would spend hours banging at the metal cover of the little sanctuary at the top of his cage. I loved Mario, but I could never shake the feeling that he was miserable.

She's still pretty hot.
