This should be easier than last time.

My aunt and uncle are moving and can't take their two cats with them. Both cats are female, short-haired, spayed (I think...), and not declawed. They're fairly friendly, but pretty shy at first. They're the kind of cats that will run and hide whenever you have company.

I wouldn't put them in a house with dogs because they've never dealt with it, so I don't know how they'd react. Since they hide anyway, small children shouldn't be too big a deal.

The only issue with these guys is they're sisters and have been together for their entire lives, so they MUST be adopted together and CANNOT be separated.

So if you're in the NJ area or willing to drive here and you're interested, please let me know.

EDIT: Nevermind. They convinced the landlord to let them keep the cats. Thanks anyway!

OMGOMGOMGOMG

So last night a friend and I went to see Kung Fu Panda 2, which was awesome in itself, way better than I thought it was gonna be, and actually better than the first one. Anyway. We were watching the previews, and I saw something that made me so ridiculously happy, the entire theater probably wanted to kill me for my ecstatic interjections.

Happy Feet 2.

Oh.

My.

God.

We has it. All us people who watch snakes eat.

At least, according to this kid on my school bus. I asked him if he wanted to watch my snakes eat yesterday (I broadcast feeding on Livestream every weekend), and after a short conversation about how busy he was, he responded, "From your first comment, I thought you were a sadist." I asked him to explain himself, and he never answered.

I asked him again today, and the conversation went like this (these are all DIRECT quotes):
Me: Hey you.
Him: can't talk. busy.
Me: No no, you can take a minute to answer a question.
Him: uh, no, I can't, i'm extremely busy and you're not gonna tell me what i can and cannot waste my time on
Me: No. But YOU can't insult me and then not explain yourself. I let you get away with it last night. And how the hell is answering my question "wasting your time"? You're ruder than you admit.
Him: by calling you a sadist? get over yourself i was obviously kidding
though taking pleasure out of one species consuming another species live is sadistic
Me: Excuse me? I do NOT feed my snakes live prey, first of all. Second, I enjoy watching my snakes being snakes. I'm sorry.
Him: why did you want me to look at them than? sharing the consumption of a species with me?
Me: Third, snakes don't consume their prey live. They kill it first.
Him: that is sadistic, and you cannot deny that
Me: Yes, I can.
Him: whether they kill it or not, if you take pleasure out of it, it is sadism
Me: I thought maybe, seeing that you go to a biology school, you might enjoy seeing what an evolutionary wonder they are.
Him: i dont go to a biology school. I go to a mathematics, science, and technology school. of which those sciences are mainly environmental. not biological
Me: Biology falls under science, dear.
Him: dear?
Me: Yes, dear.
Him: whatever. nevertheless you thought wrong. and frankly i don't care if i offended you. whether i said im sorry or not your opinion of me would not change
Me: So next time, do yourself a favor. Say "Sorry, no thanks, that's not my thing" instead of calling me a sadist. Save yourself the trouble.
Well now, no, it won't. But if you hadn't said it in the first place, I'd think a hell of a lot higher of you.
Him: look, if you took serious offense to calling you a sadist, im sorry
maybe you shouldn't start off with something that clearly makes you sound like one. and just an fyi. i don't curse, have sex, do drugs, kill insects for the fun
i save them. im the person who goes around and saves them from the pool. im a devout catholic. community service is #1 in my life. well, #2 after God. there is nothing about me that makes me a bad person
Me: I did not say you were a bad person.
Him: and if something so insignificant like the joke i said last night bothers you and puts me on the same level as drug dealers, pot smokers, deliquants, and other sc*m, than you clearly have no sense of right or wrong
Me: Woah woah woah. When the hell did I compare you to drug dealers?
Him: you didn't but you said you thought less of me
Me: And I think a hell of a lot less of drug dealers.
Him: whatever. do you take pleasure in your snakes eating process? yes or no
Me: Yes. But not because I enjoy the rat's death. THAT would be sadism. I enjoy seeing the snakes doing what they were designed to do. The same way I would enjoy seeing birds fly.
Him: whatever. it is totally different
Me: It is not.
Him: it is. like i said you have WASTED my time. don't talk to me, i am busy
Me: No, it's not. Because I don't enjoy pit bulls tearing each other apart in a ring.
Him: "Want to watch snakes eat?" wanting someone to share in the same apparent euphoria that you felt about snakes eating. share it with someone else next time. i don't care about your snakes
Me: There are nicer ways to tell me that the first time.
Him: oh well, ill know for the next time someone is crazy enough to want to share that sort of thing with me
Me: What the hell? Why are you personally attacking me like this?
Btw, scum is not a curse. It's okay, you can type it out.
Him: it is ignorant, however
Me: What? That doesn't even make sense. Scum is a film found on the bottom of still bodies of water and a solid coating of soap found in bathtubs.
He never responded to that.

So yeah. It may be petty to post this here, but I wanted to ask you guys what you thought of this. Note, I've never had a legitimate problem with this kid before, but being the in-your-face, down-your-throat bible thumper he is, he thinks that I'm Satan incarnate or hellspawn or something because I'm an atheist. So he looks down on me (then again, he looks down on everyone who disagrees with him). I've done nothing but be nice to him ever since I met him, even tolerated him trying to convert me, but now, forget it.

Anyway, yep, all of us who watch our snakes eat, either out of fascination or to make sure they don't get hurt, we're all sadists now. Just thought I should let you guys know in case you want to see a therapist about it or something.

And PLEASE note, I have NO problem with Catholics or Catholicism or any other religious practice. This is not about religion or anything like that. It's about an ignorant individual insulting me for my fascination with a necessary part of nature.

I hope this doesn't get deleted, cuz I find it hilarious.

New account over there. I like the site layout better than FA, but its so new that the community is almost non-existent. So yeah. Let's change that.

Don't worry, I'm not leaving ;)

Okay, so it's not a real charity. But I'd really appreciate it.

Unfortunately, I have to leave my lizard, dog, and snakes behind when college comes around next year, and you all know how attached I am to my snakes. I've never NOT had an animal living with me, and needless to say, I am not about to let those four years be any exception.

I'm planning to get an apartment off-campus instead of a dorm, because according to dad, it's cheaper anyway and I don't have to worry about dorm rules. So, I've decided that after seven or eight years of longing for one, I'm going to try to buy a small parrot to keep me company. Because humans get annoying as fuck, more so than any parrot waking you up with a scream.

Unfortunately, parrots are freaking expensive. I'm figuring roughly $200 for the cage, $200 for initial toys, food, and accessories, and the species I'm looking at (the two caique species and meyers parrot) are usually around $500 - 800. So I'll say a total of $1200, to be safe.

I know money's tight for everyone right now, and honestly  ska needs donations more, but I'd really appreciate it if you guys could help me out a bit here. Mom doesn't want me to get a job because then we'll get more financial aid for college, so yeah.

So. What will I do for you? Well first off, I'm going to try making bookmarks. I'll probably sell them for $15 each, but I'm honestly not sure yet. Second, you'll get a bonus.
If you get commissions totaling more than $15, you'll get one free sketch.
If you get commissions totaling more than $50, you'll get two free sketches.
If you get commissions totaling more than $100, you'll get 3 free sketches and a free badge.

Come on, guys. That's irresistible. XD

As I'm sure most of you know, I'm good friends with  ska, and in fact was the one who gave her the link to the animal in question. She's got a young albino boa that was born blind, and one of her eyes has some problems popping up every now and then. Ska's being a good snake owner and trying to get the problem permanently fixed, so go help her out.

I'm trying to upload something and I keep getting an Error 500: Internal Server Error message. Wtf? Anyone else having this problem?

My dad just found Mozart in my front yard, dead. He was fresh, uninjured, and well-fed. It appears he somehow made it through the winter by hibernating, but came out a little too early and froze.

Yknow, I didn't cry when he went missing, or any time since then. But now, actually seeing him dead, I want to. I guess I just feel more guilty than anything. If I had just been more careful, I'd still have a beautiful, healthy leucistic rat snake in my room.

Still, I'm glad we found him. I'd rather know he was dead than wonder what happened to him for the rest of my life. I'm still amazed that he survived the winter and managed to not be attacked by a bird or stray cat or something. He was a tough little guy, I gotta give him credit.

Rest in peace, Mozart.

Shit being oversensitive people.

This started because one of the admins contacted me and took down the picture of my snake eating a thawed, pre-killed rat. Now before someone tries to go and get me banned, I am NOT starting a war with the admins. Technically, they were right and I did violate the terms. I'm just saying it's a bs term.

It was taken off because photography cannot contain death. I'm sorry, but I think this is stupid. I like dead things, and I know a lot of other people do too. People post skulls, pelts, and taxidermy here all the time, and I don't see why they're allowed to post their stuff when I can't post this. I mean it's not like I posted a decapitated dog with its entrails wrapped around its muzzle. That would be understandable. Nope. It was a snake, eating a rat. A rat that was already dead. A rat that was unconscious before it died. A rat that felt no pain in death. You can flip to Discovery Channel and see the exact same thing. I'm sorry my snake has to eat. They're just not built to eat plants. And if I want to post a picture of an open casket from a viewing, why can't I? And on top of all that, the photo was matured and the description explained why it was matured, so if people wanted to see they could, and if they didn't, they didn't have to.

Again, not complaining with the admins, just complaining with the oversensitive assholes out there who are the reason a term like this needs to be in place.

Basically, this shit happens in the wild. Welcome to the real world. Suck it up and stop being such a pansy.

I found this amusing.

So here. http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2275722/

Go through the stuff there, it's awesome. c:

Before I get into this, know that this cat is a handful. She defines the word. But we're desperate. If she goes to a shelter, she will either be euthanized or spend the rest of her life in a cage, and she doesn't deserve that.

So, long story short, my grandmother is terminally ill and her cat needs to be rehomed. Storm is 10 years old, not fixed or declawed, and has a MAJOR attitude. She will warm up to humans with time, but she does not get along well with cats, dogs, or small children. However, she is used to being kept to one or two rooms, so if you can keep other cats/dogs out of a single room and set her up in there, that'd be fine. Once she gets to know you, she can be very affectionate. She was picked up as a stray, so she can't be an outdoor cat.

I know that's a lot to ask of anyone, but like I said, we're desperate. There's no rehoming fee, and I don't see why we couldn't give you all the supplies for her. This is a fairly time-sensitive issue. If she doesn't get a new home, she's screwed. I'm scared for her.

- Pencil and marker will be done on 8.5x11 computer paper, unless requested otherwise.
- It doesn't have to be furry! That being said, I won't do machinery (unless a character is included) or landscapes. Other than that, human, fanart, animal, tribal design, I'm pretty open.
- I prefer you watch me work on it via webcam so you can correct me as I'm doing things. But if you can't, for whatever reason, don't sweat it.
- Once you've received your art, you can post it wherever you like, just let me know first.
- If you didn't read these rules, and ask me about something listed here, I'm just going to send you to this journal. So yeah. Read them.

ART
- I'm going to be revising my commission prices and policy soon. Some things will raise, some will drop, and I'm going to be a lot more lenient on requirements and things.
- I'm getting better at sewing! I started attempting to make a Zoroark hat, and though it is TOTALLY the wrong color at the moment (like, Meowth tan), the hat itself looks freaking awesome. Mom agreed to help me dye it gray and then we'll get some red shag for the mane. I'll post pics soon.
- I have an actual art CLASS now. It's fantastic. It covers everything from art history to pencil to sculpture to stop-motion film. So far we've only done black/white photorealism (I did a spider ball python that came out AWESOME) and at the moment we're working on more creative adaptations of the color wheel.

LIFE
- I don't think I ever mentioned this on here, but Mozart, the little leucistic Texas rat snake hatchling I got back in July, went missing on September 17th and we have yet to find him. Now, I know there is always a chance of lost snakes turning up years after they go missing, but the odds are cut significantly when you have a curious, hungry pit bull in the house. Anyway. One snake isn't enough for me, so I talked to dad and he agreed to let me get a redtail boa. Which, as many of you may know, is CONSIDERABLY larger than either Mozart or Ramses XD He also agreed to let me get it at the White Plains Reptile Expo on April 27th. Now, we just have to convince mom, which dad is yet again backing me up on. I think my chances are pretty good.
- I PASSED EFA/TRIG. Failed both the midterm and the final, but passed the class, and that's the important part.
- New classes: Pre-calculus, Art, Physics, English III.
- Colleges in mind: Stockton, Eckerd, University of Tampa, University of Maine, Philadelphia Academy of the Fine Arts, Art Institute of Chicago, Academy of Art University

Mm, I think that's it for now. Will come back and edit if I think of anything else.

I need some cash, so I figured I'd do lowered prices for Valentine's Day. Sale ends on Feb 28th, 2011 and applies to COUPLE'S PICTURES ONLY.

Couple's Badges (no examples, atm): $10 per pair in marker, $15 per pair in paint
Pencil lines: $10 (this is less than I normally charge for a single char, take advantage of it!)
Pencil shading: $15 (again, way WAY less than a single shaded char)
Full color, marker: $15 (less than single)
Full color, paint: $25 (same as single)
Wall cutouts: Still just as variable (size, pose, detail, etc)

A full background will require a few dollars more, but simple backgrounds are included in above prices. Shipping is not included in the above prices. Badges ship for about $2 - 3, 9x12 drawings for about $7, and anything larger will be more.

I really really wanna do some badges and I'm out of my own characters to do em for so Imma take commissions on em with lowered prices.

$5 for headshots
$7 for upper bodies or larger headshots
$10 for full bodies or larger upper bodies
+$7 shipping

NOTE: I'm ONLY going to laminate them if I get enough to fill a sheet. I'm not paying $2 to laminate one small headshot so I only get $3 out of it. I don't wanna do em THAT bad. XD

EDIT: I can now laminate any and all badges.
EDIT 2: These prices are now void. New ones will be posted shortly.

I'm paraphrasing here.

Step 1: Post a list of 10 things you want for the holiday.

Step 2: Look at other peoples' lists. If you see a wish you can grant, do it.

I personally will be skipping all the selfless "end world hunger" type wishes because a) I'm a materialistic bitch and I know it and b) all the non-materialistic stuff I want, I guarantee you cannot give me.

So here goes. My list, in no particular order (aka I don't necessarily want #1 more than #10).

1. Snakeskin cowboy boots, size 7 women's. (Fake skin only, please!)
2. Animal parts. Anything. Teeth, claws, bones, pelts, pelt scraps, feathers, paws, tails... Real is preferable but not required.
3. A pearl cross fox commission from  leopardpaws. I really don't expect anyone to get this, considering it's about $300, at least...but hey, it doesn't hurt to ask. I would love you forever and would probably offer something in return.
4. Money. Money is always good. You can also buy some of the stuff that needs to GTFO of my house. (see the previous journal). Commissions are good too.
5. Anything snake-related, so long as it's not from a snake that was killed solely to make the product. I like constrictors best, but all snakes are welcome in my bedroom~
6. Art supplies. Copic markers, airbrush paint, paintbrushes, canvases... I'm good on paper though, thanks.
7. Plushies. Of...well, just about anything, but I've been looking for Abra, Deoxys' normal form, Banette, and a binturong. It's surprising hard to find decent ones for any of those, though.
8. A gryphon puppet from www.fantasypuppet.com. Again, not likely, but.
9. A subscription to Reptiles Magazine would be fantastic.
10. A Zoids Shadowfox or Lightning Saix. Mini toy, build-it-yourself model, whatevs.
11. (I know this is cheating...) I really, really need some PS2 controllers....or a new PS2. XD


So yeah, there you go. I don't expect to get much, if anything, but it IS the holidays, and my birthday is coming up first so maybe someone will be feeling generous. ^_^

This folder is gonna be changed constantly. I'll make journals when a lot of new stuff is up, but not for every single new item.

I'm always interested in trades. Make me an offer.

And finally, I also have a loooot of original art I'll put up for sale as well. Will upload those soon too.

http://s174.photobucket.com/albums/w98/shinigami_girl_666/For%20Sale/

Just out of curiosity, would you guys be interested in buying any of the following:

1. Original artwork (regardless of content, just in general)
2. Adoptables/character designs (cheap, maybe $5)
3. Custom painted t-shirts (in acryllics, so they'd have to be spot-washed an kept out of the machine)

Thanks for your input, guys!
