Posted 14 years agoJust keeping people informed on going's on.
Kei's father has FINALLY been cremated. Took a month, good gods. But anyway. The cost was covered by the government since his father was over the age of 65 and should have (though they have no record of it) collecting some kind of old age pension or whatever. The social worker theorizes that his father probably has some secret bank account or hiding place where he was holing up money and if its ever found its legally kei's but honestly, Kei and I laughed at that possibility. The guy was living on the streets and was an addict. We highly doubt he had cash hidden away. But its a funny little pipe dream.
His fathers ashes are in the next city over, and our friend John is going to pick them up and drop them off whenever he happens to come down next. Very awkward to ask a friend to pick up the ashes of your dead parent....
On other news, Im TRYING to work on art. But its been a struggle. Currently working on Ty's commission, getting a little bit done here and there but Ive had so much going on.
Friend of mine on SL bought half a sim and is going to be turning it into a 'All Species" friendly type medieval RP sim. Ive been landscaping/building/buying stuff for it and working at it a lot for him. Once we have the rules laid out and are ready to go live, Ill post the information on FA for all to see and maybe hopefuly join in with :D
Ive also been working at my job in Anthro Xtacy a lot. AX has just recently been turned Adult rated and we now have Theme Fetish rooms if you ever want to swing by and check it out : http://slurl.com/secondlife/Elliquiy/155/125/22
AX now sports a Classroom, Forrest, Harem and my personal fave, a Dungeon (that I helped with :D), all ready and waiting for people to make use of :3
Sept 10th will be AX's BDSM Event as well that I will be hosting in the Dungeon. Were going to be having a contest for best in bondage and probably do some naughty fun stuff all day as well. Including perhaps a new 'game' I am forming in my twisted little kitsu brain.
Anyway. Im off to get lunch and hopefuly get more then just Ty's torso shaded on his commission x3

Update yet again
Posted 14 years agoSo quick update. Seemed to have stopped my computer from bluescreening (thank god)
Got one commission done that was private for a buddy of mine overseas at the moment. (it was very simple) And going to get to work on the other two on my que quick here. Stress tested my sytem all this weekend and it hasnt bsod'ed yet so here's hoping.
In other news... I turn 29 on Wed. Kei is going to be... ah I wont tell his age without his permission x3. Kei and I are probably going to go out to dinner and a movie for it and thats about it. We got each other a couple of small gifts (because that damned man cant stand having something for someone and not giving it to them right away. Kinda disappointing since I dont get the fun of unwrapping anything. I dont think Ive had a wrapped gift in two years at least. And then it wasnt a gift from Kei. lol)
With my birthday, Hikari will have six tails instead of five. Going to have to do up a new refsheet for her anyway. Old one is old.
On other news, the rescue ferret we took in found a great home. And the crow I picked up was handed off to a vet who was taking her to a bird rescue place so thats a relief off my hands. And Kei applied for a job just a block away so cross your fingers for him. We could really use the extra income.
Anyway, Ive got things I need to get done today... Tah everyone!

Gravy isnt a vegetable.
Posted 14 years agoJust checkng in
Posted 14 years agoMost of my friends already know whats going on so I thought I would post for everyone else
Q.) "Hikari where are you?"
A.) Im here just not here. xD Weve been dealing with the funeral stuff for kei's father. Were in a catch 22 with his body at the moment. Its currently still in the hospital morgue. Its going to cost 1000$ to have him cremated. We dont have that kind of cash. However if his father was on any kind of government assistance the government covers up to $2500. Only the government wont tell us if he was on one as hes not 'officially' dead until his body is released to a funeral home. Not to Kei, not to his fathers Sisters, NO ONE. However if his body is sent to a funeral home and he WASN'T on government assistance WE get saddled with that $1000 bill. Were trying to find a way around it but meanwhile his fathers body is 'on ice' so to speak at the hospital. Its stupid beyond reason. His aunts are at the point where they will donate his body to science because we cant afford anything else. Which is tearing Kei and his aunts up as they wanted to bury the ashes with his father's mother's grave.
Q.) When are you going to get art done you lazy bitch?
A.) Stress and dealing with his mess has pretty killed my desire to even pick up my tablet. But I would normally be doing it anyway...except Im having MAJOR computer issues at the moment. A kind soul on SL 'commissioned' me art and sent me a new video card which we thought was the problem... and it may have been PART of it. But it didnt fix it. My computer gets 3-4 blue screens a day, randomly, with no warning. At this point were pretty sure its the ram. A friend has some DDR3 he isnt using that he's giving us so we can take it in and trade down for some DDR2 ram (my board is too old to support DDR3) but that wont happen till next weekend. With these blue screens randomly happening I dont want to be working and loose hours of work. Even with saving all the time, I run the risk of loosing hard done work between saves and I just dont want to do that. Ill get angry and break something. xD
I will try and keep things going

Back from the memorial
Posted 14 years agoSo we just walked in the door from the memorial. Stayed the night with a friend so we could make it this morning.
Wow... what a day.
Kei's father may have been homeless but he had so very many friends and 'family' that loved him there at the service. Everyone had a story to tell Kei about his dad. Everyone was completely shocked to find out he had a son.
His fathers worker from the homeless shelter got us all the family information and contact information he had. And apparently Kei has a full blooded sister (not brother) named Bambi that were now going to try and find and contact. As well as two half brothers from a previous marriage. We have his ex-wife's name and the names of his half brothers now too. We are going to have a lot of phone calls and digging to do. We have his fathers parents names and my mom is going to start Kei's genealogy. (My mom is HUGE into genealogy. I think ours has been recorded all the way back to like 32AD Its crazy. If there is anything to be found, my mom will make it her mission to find it.).
In any case.. were both EXHAUSTED. We slept on our friends hide-a-bed and it wasnt the most comfortable so we didnt sleep well. Kei was worried there would be no one there. It was so comforting to see so many people there for his fathers service. It was very emotionally draining. Hes on the phone now with his Aunt to let her know that the service was very sweet and people loved him and he didnt die alone. I was given the eulogy that was given so I am going to type it out and e-mail it to his cousin (his aunts son) so she can see what is said and pass it on to his other aunts/cousins.
Im going to get things typed out, emailed and pass out for a nap or something. Soooo tired.
And if you havent seen it yet, I encourage you to see and read Kei's poem regarding this whole mess. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6214952/
Bbs.

Update from the RCMP
Posted 14 years agoSo the constable got ahold of Kei this morning...
Turns out it wasnt a half brother. It was his father. The father that his mother had always told him was dead before he was born.
Apparently he had been living homeless on the streets of the neighboring city for the last 18yrs. They found Kei because his father had been paying his mother for childsupport up to 1992, weeeelll after Kei had gone into Fostercare and had been adopted.
Needless to say... Kei is in an emotional mess right now. The funeral is this Sunday in the next city over so we have to figure out how to get him there for it. He may also have an Aunt. He's trying to contact the mission to get the contact information for her, just to confirm that this man actually IS his father.
Needles to say, were going to be kind of absent this weekend while we try and figure this all out.

Wow... what a fuggin day x.x
Posted 14 years agoSo today Kei was scheduled to go do a computer job downtown today (paid our cable bill for the month). Just as were about to go... the phone rings.
Its the RCMP from the neighboring city. Their looking for Kei and asked if he knew some guy because their looking for next of kin. Kei is like "Ummm. Never heard of the guy." Their like "This is so and so and your mothers name is such and such" and Keis like "Uh.. yeah.. thats me. But I havent talked to my biological mother since I was five" Keis adopted. They wanted to know if he had contact info for his mom and hes like "No, last I heard she was in such and such city and that was when I was seventeen."
Now keep in mind, Kei's parents are both/were RCMP police officers. His father is retired and owns an orchard about an hour an a half drive from here. His mom is still on active duty closer to Vancouver. So he calls his dad to ask whats up and why they would be calling, since he pretty much guessed/suspected it was because there's been a death if their looking for next of kin. His dad was like "Yeeeah... that sounds like someone's died... and.. you might have a half sibling....."
Apparently, just after they adopted kei, and just before his mother stopped coming to visit him, they were told that his mother was pregnant... but they never heard anything more. She stopped visiting, and they dont know if the kept the child, or if she aborted it or gave it for adoption or anything.
Were waiting for the RCMP to call back, since we missed the callback earlier. Kei just called and left a message on the Constables voicemail saying we would be home for the rest of the night. Kei is... kinda out of sorts about it all.. Understandably.....
BUT THEN!!
To top that interesting day... as were coming home, just before I go into the house, something catches my eye. Its a crow. A young crow. Fledgling. But... its not flying.. and its holding its wings funny.
Its not the first time Ive had to grab and rehabilitate young corvids (jays, crows, ect. Used to do Bird Rescue in High school) So I got kei to help me round up the guy... Seems he's got a muscle deformity on his wings. As in, the forearm muscle seems to be nonexistent. He cant open his wings fully... hes got.. SOME muscle there, but its almost all tendon. Belive me I know that a normal wing looks like, I spent many years breeding and hand feeding cockatiels and any local birds who happened to get lost that people brought to me. He's also real thin so I think mom and dad got tired of feeding him. He's still got some of the baby down mixed in his feathers and hes very NOT HAPPY about behind held (to be expected. It always makes me laugh when corvids of any kind try and bite... cause their SO ANGRY but it doesnt hurt at all) Ive got him in a small 10gal reptile tank at the moment. Its small but its all I have. I plan on calling the SPCA tomarrow to ask if theres a bird rescue nearby that would be willing to come pick him up. Ive got him with some water in the dark, just to let him calm down. Im going to find him a perch to at least wrap his feet around as well, and Ill try give him some wet catfood later. If theres no bird rescue... guess Ill be looking for a big cage (Craigslist add going up in the morning for a free/super cheap one if the SPCA cant help) and frozen mice and stuff to feed the guy. At least until I can find a place that can take him.

Posted 14 years agoSo... this last weekend has been... stressful. For various reasons, both online and IRL. Because of such I havent really been in the state of mind to work on art, I appologize for that. I hate owing people >.O And then, to make everything more fun Ive kinda caught some kind of stomach bug or something (might just be stress). I have like... no appetite. And when I do eat Im barely eating half of it before Im like "uhg no more..." I think I just need some time off from things, just for a few days. To just sit back, and de-stress for a little bit. Ill get back to my art stuffs as soon as I feel a bit better. Thank you for being understanding :3

Omg I want to see it! Thank gods! A good movie in Scotland and not Ireland! XD It seems almost always when people want a 'Celtic' movie they go Irish. I think its cause the Irish accent is apparently the 'sexiest accent' Gimmie Scottish anyday. (Just cause Im half Scottish doesn't make me biased does it? :P )

Posted 14 years agoHuzzah! I have a new keyboard. And not only am I happy I have a new keyboard.... I am happy because I got the exact same make and model of the one my cat killed. Its one of the old Microsoft keyboards... so I was able to pop off the faceplate/keys of my dead one and put it on the guts of the 'new' one... so... its my old awesome keyboard, with new inards. :D This makes me very happy.. especially since I only had to pay five bucks for it :D
Now once I handle the swarm of "OMG YOUR BACK" from my messenger lists and SL... I shall resume my regularly scheduled routine.

This is what I have come to realise as I have nothing to do but brows the websites of the web, specificly this one. (Keyboard is still broken. I actualy type all this to my self from my laptop between two MSN windows to copy paste. I R TEH CLEVOR!)
While I respect an artists desire to showcase work they want to censor for paysites... I really... really wish they would do so in separate 'teaser' galleries so that my inbox isnt flooded with what looks like awesome art... only to not be able to enjoy it with the censor crap all over them. I didnt come to FA to view teasers of art. I came to see the actual art. :/ At least with a teaser gallery I wouldnt have to watch it and get all the stupid teaser images in my submissions to drive me batass insane with irrational rage.

LOA
Posted 14 years agoSo my keyboard died.... (cat knocked water all over it). Attempted to let it sit and dry out, even opened it up and toweled it off.... but... no luck. Which is a really big pissoff because I loved that fucking keyboard.
Buuut we have no cash to go out and get a new one (even an elcheapo one) I tried using the little portable roll out keyboard we got... but... yeah its beyond impossible. Im on our laptop right now, which is the only reason I am typing legibly. Sooo until we get a new keyboard I cant work on art (not having my keyboard shortcuts would drive me absolutely bonkers in PS) And Im going to like.. be off SL and everything else until I get a replacement. If you see me online its because I can browse the web without too much use of a keyboard (thank god for Cracked.com). Id im on SL its just to check my horses. I wont be typing. as its going to be a struggle just to hold down the two buttons to move my camera around. If you have my AIM you can get a hold of me, if you dont have it and need to talk to me, note me for it. Otherwiiiiiise... yeah im 'offline' for now.

If you have my AIM you can get a hold of me, if you dont have it and need to talk to me, note me for it. Otherwiiiiiise... yeah im 'offline' for now.
Nude Sunbathing
Posted 14 years agoI approve.
Kei and I were going to my eye doctor appointment yesterday and we were standing at the bus stop. Now the bus stop we go to from our house is at this place called "The Cannery" Used to be an old canned food factory that has since been converted into a bunch of stores and restraunts. Across from said cannery is an old folks home and appartment/condo building. Were standing there and I guess Kei's "boobsence" went off cause he was like "Omg, that girl has no top on."
I look up, and at the third(top) floor of the condo's theres this hot twenties something girl with magenta hair out on her balcony, no top on, smearing what I am asuming was suntan lotion on herself. Kei and I were like O.O... Mind you this is the middle of the day, across from a restraunt with like ten people sitting outside. But I think Kei and I were the only ones who noticed. So we watched her as she lotioned herself up and then she got up (wearing only a delicious pair of pink panties) and went back inside her condo. Kei and I fist bumped and snickered thinking the show was over.....
Nope! Five minutes later she comes back out... fully nude. Another O.O moment. Kei and I perv watched her for a bit until the bus came.. she was reading a book... but still.. hot dayum....
Again... Nude Sunbathing. I approve.

New Tablet
Posted 14 years agoSo, Kei got his GST check today (The real one) Sadly its already mostly spent :C Partially because my old tablet was on the verge of death and we decided we should probably buy its replacement now while we had the money to do so.
My old trusty faithful Wacom 3 Graphite has gotten too old. So old the plastic casing around the wires had become hard and brittle... and cracked right where it joined the tablet... again. It still limped along if I held the cord just right, but it was only a matter of time before it went kaput. Kei could have opened it up again, stripped the wire down, and resolder it again... but as he put it "I dont want to have to do that a half dozen times. Lets just get a new one"
Sooo we went to Staples today and saw that they had the Bamboo Pen on sale for 89.99. And a really awesome price on the Bamboo touch for $40. So we picked up the Bamboo pen for myself, and Kei grabbed the touch for himself. Well... kind of. He's evaluating if it would be a good tool for our friend with cerebal palsy. He's an architect and has wanted a tablet for his work, but he cant hold the tablet pens too well. Their just too big for him. So Kei's is checking out this Touch for him...
Anyway, got side tracked. Got a new tablet, have it installed. Might throw up a couple of practice doodles as I try and get used to this. Maybe get some of those headshot sketches off my list :3

Oh Nigeria... why you so crazy?
Posted 14 years agoSo I scan my spam email folder to catch any nonspam items (usualy from SL) and delete everything... but every so often I see the title of one I just have to read... like this one :
Subject: YOU ARE THE LORD CHOOSEN ONE. (At this point I was like "Oh hell yess")
YOU ARE THE LORD CHOOSEN ONE.
Dear Beloved,
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, having known the truth; I
had no choice than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for
eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & his mercies and
glory upon my life.
I am Mrs. Linda J. Shirley the wife of Mr. Fred Shirley from Singapore, my
husband worked with the Chevron/Texaco for twenty years before he died in the
year 2001.We were married for ten years without a child. My Husband died after
a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both
born again Christians.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he
deposited the sum of US$7.5M.(Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S.Dollars)
with a Security Company in Nigeria Presently, this money is still with the
Security company and the management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come
forward to sign for the release of this money or rather issue a letter of
authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not come
over.
Presently,I'm in a hospital in St George's Hospital,Blackshaw Road,
United Kingdom where I have been undergoing treatment for esophageal cancer. I
have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have
only a few weeks to live. It is my last wish to see this money distributed to
charity organizations anywhere in the World. Because relatives and friends
have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the
agony of entrusting this huge responsibility.
I want a person that is God fearing that will use this money to fund churches,
orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house
of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand
that giveth.I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't
want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I don't want
a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the
reason for taking this bold-decision.I am not afraid of death hence I know
where I am going.
I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus {14 VS14} says
that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I don't need any
telephone communication in this regard because of my soundless voice and
presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know
about this development. With God all things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security
company, so that you can contact them directly for the release of the funds to
you.
Mrs. Linda J. Shirley

Sometimes... you just have to shake your head and laugh at them. I mean.. its not cool that their trying to prey on people, and use sob stories like this... and this one was surprisingly well written... but still... honestly Nigeria?
