Carpets are awesome - I've been thinking about adding an irian jaya to my collection. I would love to have a coastal, but most of the ones I've been offered/seen avaliable were ugly and worn looking. If I'm going to have a semi-arboreal species, I want it to be a knock out so that it looks good on display.

i used to have a baby ball python, until my mom started having nightmares about him getting out of his tank and killing the entire family, etc. i even put a thick-ass unabridged dictionary on the top of the tank but it didn't handle her fears.

haha, good plan! - Sounds like you've got your hands full! Check my journal in about half an hour - I'm sure you'll be amused by my next post

yeah, I know. weird things are afoot.

Daytona, ahh..I really really really want to go, but I'm not sure. I am definitely going to try to go, but I have a few hundred bucks saved up and I need to spend it on new enclosures. I have taken in 2 (now 3!) new rescues (all ball pythons..argh) in the past few weeks, and some of my yearlings are in need of permanent enclosures. I would hate to go to Daytona and find the perfect snake that I've been wanting, and not have any money to buy it. I would be really pissed. So, I'm trying to figure out if I have enough money to build enclosures, and still be able to go and at least pick up some new snake hooks or something...

I'm picking up some plexiglass for enclosures tomorrow, so I'll see how my funds are after that. I missed Daytona last year and I will curse myself to hell if I miss it two years in a row!

the word hate can be tossed around?

Yes, you do! But I am not a very good conversationalist. I am super duper awkward silence lady

you're going to wear a suit to defcon? I didn't know it was that kind of event...or maybe it's not "that kind" of suit.

shit sticks.

ouch. i am a firm believer that all lines can be crossed back over eventually, although some lines require way more work to cross over than other lines. hope it all gets sorted.

yeah sometimes you just need a few minutes to pull yourself out of your head, go to the beach, go for a drive...whatever. then go back in and fix things. if you need to chat, im me.

I think it's the creepy bowtie that really does it. Ever seen a plumber in a bowtie?

Ha. Yeah. I hate it when that happens. Usually I pull that shit when I leave out a semicolon somewhere. Heh.

Eep. That's pretty creepy indeed. I wonder how many plumbers and electricians had to die in mistaken "self-defence" accidents before they came up with that sign.

Man, if I found that on my door, I'd go in and kick some ass.

Hey, if I didn't like it, I wouldn't be doing it.

It's just frustrating when the major roadblocks are totally out of your hands, and suddenly something like this happens and everyone says "oh, hey, we should have listened to you months ago. Now fix it. All at once."

thanks. Sorry about your rat, too.

Your snakes are gorgeous!

Help me kill Dave...

yea, i'm not sure why I have that i'm only going to be a student for another year when I plan to learn forever... i'm going to change that!

thanks for letting me borrow your webcam too, got it set up for my project quite successfully! (i'll stop by the building this week to return it)

hey, i heard this cool quote - "If you want something badly enough, the entire universe will conspire to give it to you."

I think there might be some truth to it.

ok, bye for now

eyeball!

Yeah, the only thing about Busch Gardens is I wish that they had a larger reptile exhibit. I can't wait for Daytona in August..are you coming this year?

That can't get any better.

I love how Bush looks at the seating chart before he pretends he's going to actually answer one of the journalist's questions, and then he acknowledges the journalist on a first name basis. I think HE THINKS that we aren't smart enough to realize that he's looking at a seating chart. He doesn't know their names. Well, he might know Helen Thomas' name because he's scared of her or something. And he probably is on a first name basis with all his buddies at FOX News. But it looks disingenuous when he calls on the reporters as "Dave" and so on instead of "guy with the pink tie" or whatever. ALSO, Bush's tie was really hard to look at when drunk. Or sober. If Bush had actually held press conferences on a regular basis like normal presidents do, he would know that you don't wear ties and shirts and things with small patterns. HAAAAAATE. Hate. Hate, hate, hate.
