Sooo yes... I need inspiration......... for two things!


*First and most important* Is that I really need a job. I have seriously been trying hard to find one, I've looked up all the companies I'd like to work for, along with al the ones I *might* like to work for and e-mailed them ALL enquires and my resume. So far.. No luck... (mostly either not employing or family only run businesses) The best I've done is landed a Volunteer job at the local wildlife park. This is good for the learning experience and of course.. to get me out and about.. and keep me sane! X'D

So.. does anyone have advice of landing a job easily? I've been applying for all the mediocre type jobs as well (like supermarkets and clothing shops) I don't want to work in these areas, but I need to get some cash flow! I havent even heard from all these types of places either =( The town I live in doesnt seem to have much job opportunities... at all... :/ And like I've said in previous journals.. I've never had a hard time getting a job before.. >.> Whats the go??

I'm thinking next week I'll go into the employment hubs and see what they can do for me there... I've heard nothing but bad news with these places, but... I'm not having any luck on my own.

The inspiration I'm looking for is.. what I should do to make an awesome resume!? Mine is just a boring old one that some employment lady made up for me.. I just added what I needed to in each section. I'm looking for work in graphic design or sign writing.. should I make an arty looking resume? Or keep in simple like it is... but somehow more professional? @__@;;; websites with resume templates havent helped either...X__X



The other type of Inspiration is of course, art wise! I want to draw some anime characters...(shock, horror..not furry!) but I havent been into anime in a while, so i'm a bit lost as to what to draw other than what i used to watch!

What characters do you like from anime shows? who would you like to see fan art of?? X'D Link me a pic! ^o^

In other news

I have been working on a few fursuits aswell. A couple very close to completion, just harder details still need taking care of, so it's been a bit slow. I've been working on them pretty hard to try get them finished before landing a job! So hopefully I'll have some completed suit pics up in the coming weeks!

*note..."anything" may depend!

Yesterday my Nan passed away =(

~Vixen

So I haven't really updated or uploaded a whole lot lately. I do indeed have things to show! But either not quite ready, or I just simply forgot!

My mum came to visit last week and we went and saw my Uncle and Aunty and alot of cousins and second cousins aswell up at Kiama. Visited the little blowhole which was huge in proportion, the winds where just right that day! And also the Big Blow hole! I had heard it's not as epic as it used to be, but that day it was going off!! And spraying everyone around aswell! The hole is much bigger than it was when i was younger, probly why it doesnt be as epic all the time these days. The wind direction is a big factor in its blowyyness apparently!

Next day we headed off to Yass to see my nanny, then proceeded onwards to Wagga. There I met my crazy and his brother as they had been busy renovating the house! And it looks very muchly mcAwesomepants! They did well!! =D Not long now until it's finished!

Went to the movies for the first time in many many months and saw 'The number 4' I thought it was pretty cool! But after wards we went back to a friends place and watched 'Splinter' and that movie just embedded its crazy-ness into my head! It was pretty good too! ^^

During all this my muma won an awesome prize, she doesnt win much, and she totally deserves it! =D

On the weekend Crazy and I went and met up with his bother and a friend at Tumut for fishing and camping. We got to sleep in this crazy tent contraption on top of a car! XD good fun! Went and visited Blowering Dam while we were there =)

After that went to Gundagai! Crazy had to be picked up there by work peeps, to head off to do work further south. Although I've been here alot, I went around all the sights with a crazy in tow. Then after his pick up, I proceeded back to mums!

More time there and then went to pick up crazys bother to take him to Canberra on my way back home. Ended up cruising around for a while, then headed to drop him off in Queanbeyan. Then I went out to Gundaroo and then Gunning to crash the night before heading back to home sweet home with crazy and I's little dooky children! XD

Had lots of internety stuff to catch up on, now i'm here! X'D Hopefully I'll get around to finishing a few arts and stuff to show later in the week.. forgive me if i forget!! XD

And thats it from me for now! =)
~Vixen

YEEEYYYYYYYY!!!


As some of you may know, I couldnt log onto this account after I made my fursuit account! Password wouldnt work and nor would my e-mail! >.>
Turns out the e-mail was miss-spelled =( so i couldnt reset the password. After a while i eventually got on to Ariel who helped reset my password for me! ^___^

So happy to be back, and got a crap load of submissions to look at at too! XD

Anyways, what i was meant to do a few weeks back was link everyone to my new fursuit account!

 whitechocolateandraspberry

This will be where all my fursuits stuff is going to be, So they wont be on this account anymore (except my personal fursuits)

My vixen account will be dedicated to artsies!! (which I have a few ready to scan in shortly!)

Anwyays, all is sweet again!
~Vixen

Just thinking about making a new account for all the fursuit stuff I make. It'd be alot more organised and easier to find all of the suits to look at for those who want to, rather than going through all my gallery to find them. It'd be the FA version of my webpage, so commission info and fursuit related things would all go there X'D

I'd of course keep this account, but only for artsies! (which i plan to do alot more of very soon!).. including some more mature stuff for those who have missed it X'D (if any) ^o^

Anyways, what do you guys think? I think i will go ahead with it.. but i thought i should see what peoples opinions are ^^;

Happy belated New Year to all!

What does every one have planned to accomplish during this new year?

I really hope that I can land a decent job. I havent worked since May last year. I tried just doing fursuits the rest of the year, but it really doesnt pay enough to live off. Thus why, my wonderful Crazy helped me out with monies while I helped him out doing some jobbies and such =) *cuddles him* ^o^

I'd like to get perhaps a part-time job so that I CAN continue to make fluffy stuff, but be able to earn enough to live and save off aswell.... and i hope not to do something tedious and boring >.>

Other than the job hunting, I hope to get alot more artsies happening! I want to work on some drawing techniques =) and also get some fluffy stuff built to sell (heads, tails and ears)

Commission website is up!>>> http://whitechocolateandraspberry.webs.com

Greetings all!

Just finally finished a website that contains fursuit commission info......and photos! XD It's made on a 'free web' based thing, so there's annoying ad's, but I made this so I had all my commission info in one spot and so I didn't have to keep re-writing the same things again and again!

It's still pretty rough but I hope it's set out OK! I'm not the best when it comes to setting out web pages XD (only ever made flash based ones) as long as it's easy enough to read/ find info ect, then its all good with me XD


It's called "White Chocolate and Raspberry" > http://whitechocolateandraspberry.webs.com/

Yummy flavours, and will be my 'mascot' names! (hopefully re-doing the header with them soon!)

Anyways, with this... I've decided to start taking new fursuit orders NOW! ^o^ But still wont be starting on anything until January 5th 2011. All the info you need is on the webby!! X'D

I'm just curious how many people would be interested in getting pre-made heads or tail and ears sets? These would be things I've made in my own time and not custom made (so what you see is what you get) like eg. generic fox, wolf, tiger perhaps even colour variations of generic creatures. Even some hybrid animals or mythical creatures! I want to make a few critters that arnt seen often or what look interesting for me to make!

I'd post them up when ready to be sold, so would it be better to have them listed with one base price or as a bidding war? X3 They will of course be discounted compared to a custom build aswell!

I would perhaps make more of one thing if there is alot of interest too!

SOOOO what do you guys think?

Let me know if you'd rather fursuit heads or tail and ear sets, what kind of creatures you'd like to see be made and weather this is a good idea or not! =)



~Vixen

This last Wednesday just gone, Crazy and I's beautiful 'special' little chicken...'Arnie' passed away.

We dont know what was wrong with her, she was just sitting around, not moving much and hanging by her water. She drank alot, but didnt eat a thing all of Tuesday, and then Wednesday she got worse. I hugged her and held her in my arms as she left us.


It's taken a few days to be able to write this up. It's hit me pretty hard. Every time i thought about her or heard the Roo-man crow for her, i got upset. She was the very first chick to hatch in the first batch of eggs we incubated, so she was very special to us besides her quirky cross-eyed 'specialness' :>

I've had alot of pets over the years, but so far, i've never cried over thier loss. Nor have a i cried at a funeral or over a person who's died. Sure I've been sad, but the pets that have died i wasn't there when they actually passed. As with humans, the ones i've been to funerals for I didnt know very well, so its sad, but i dont cry....
But Arnie practically went in my arms, it was traumatising and really got to me. I tried not to cry, but it was so sad and horrible I couldnt help it... But Crazy was there to comfort me. =)

We buried her next to the Roosters vege garden and I planted purple flowers on top....

RIP

Day 1.
Wednesday 1st: Prepped our chookin's pen up so that they had HEAPS of available food stuff and freshly grown grass areas opened up for them to roam in. Made a little sheltered area for them aswell so they had cover from the rain and shine ^o^ Chopped up a tub full of tomatoes and broccoli for them to snack on too (their fave veggies!) and organised some egg cartons and bread for our 'chicken carer' to have when they come to check on them!
It was raining and took a while to get ready, but after packing the car, crazy still had things to do.. then we decided it's be best if we took the other car... SO had to unpack and re-pack all the stuff again! Eventually we left and met up with BC and spence at Albion Park before going to Sydney.
Stayed the night at BC's folks place, and a BBQ aswell ^^

Thursday 2nd: Got up nice and early.. 5.30am i think to get ready to leave. Then packed our stuff into BC's sisters Carnival and went to the Train station! almost $16 each and we're training it to the Airport.... (WTF! so expensive! for such a short ride too!) Anyways... Got to the airport, checked in then we went on the 'Line ride' yeeeyyyy! In line for a good 20mins or so, checked in our baggage, went thru security and finally to our flight area... after another 20mins or so, we had to move to a different area to board the plane, but we weren't really behind schedule, so it was all sweet!

About $70 taxi ride from Melb airport to the con and we arrived!! YEY! Checking in was hell... It cost more than what was written on the Midfur website which was unplanned. PLUS there was a $50 deposit fee "incase" something happened i guess. So we had to pay part cash, part my eftpos and part crazys debit card... All this after transferring funds from account to account ect... *sigh* This wouldnt have been much of an issue if crazy's pay had gone in too! So yehhh, rough start!

Got to our room, dumped stuff then headed down to get our con badges. Had a little look around and then we went to get supplies! Awesome dude at Subway told us where to find a woolies so we didnt spend lots of money at 7/11. It was a fair walk away, but worth the weetbix and milk!.. and milo... and coke... Mmmm!

After that I submitted my airbrushed foxy to the art show... I think mine was the only one NOT up for sale or auction! XD

Even tho this was my 5th Midfur, I still went to "your first furry convention" panel... mostly because its usually rather entertaining, and it sure was!! XD The opening ceremony was awesome, got suited up for a while. BBF's stuff didnt make it to the con, so he was with out all his gear. This, I think was rather a disappointment for him... only using what he could with what was there. (At this stage i didnt know he didnt have his gear, and was rather unimpressed by the DJ performance) But I understood afterwards when i found out! Poor BBF! The light were on, and the sound was so quiet i could talk in my suit to people.. and people who know me, know how quiet i am in general.. so yeh.. quiet lights on dance party was not too awesome. Afterwards, we crashed.. after a long day!

Friday 3rd: Got up to get ready for the Beginners Art panel! Hosted by Myself,  cerberusderozier and  deezmo! Deezmo and I had no idea we were to do this panel until a few days before midfur... so a last minute attempt to find another host (who isnt so shy!) I managed to get Cerby to help us out! And she did such a great job too! ^o^ The crowd started off rather small at first, which made it easier to talk. It slowly grew rather large by the end, but by then we were on the ball! XD There was one short guy in the front who was rather rude at the beginning. We did start slow (as we were un prepared!) and this guy LOUDLY mentioned other panels he could be "wasting" his time at like saying " I wonder what the spiritual furs panel is doing right now.. i could go have a look instead of being here" ect. I did notice this and got a bit annoyed that he was being so rude, thinking "why not go then?" but we ignored and continued anyways! ^___^ and I think it went rather well for something so unplanned! But dont worry, next year I'll be ready! XD lolz!

After that, I went to see the Females in the fandom panel Hosted by Muse and  carnival This was awesomely entertaining! Crazy and I took some of the pictures used and put the female one on the female toilet door and the male for males. I thought they'd be awesome and they lasted alot longer than I thought! But then i watched as rubbah scrunched them down later in the day! lol XD
Checked out the Wacom demos! very awesome, but they all have the crappy straight pens! I like my old graphire 3 curvy pen that fits well into my fingers ^o^
Went to the Podcasts panel, also entertaining and insightful! ^__^

Went for dinner at some Korean hot pot place which i didnt know would be all the way into the city X.x Ordering took ages and we only got one kind of meat for a 'combination meat' grill. >.> Because of the length it all took, i missed out on the beginning of Friday night wild with  ACTfuronair ;___; And i was embarrassed to find out they had mentioned me, but wasnt even there to stand up! GYYAHH! *flail* I felt bad for not being there X.x.... but crazy found me one of the little foxy things hiding under the seat! XD yey!

Then it was time for the dance party! The 18 only one had no dance happening, just sitting and drinking expensive booze.. So we went to the the under 18 and fursuit friendly one! Mosky did a great job! I loved the mix and YEY darkness and coloured lights and lasers!! ^o^ But still a bit too quiet.. but was fun!! It ended way too early XD

Saturday 4th: I was mad I couldnt go watch the great debate! I would have loved to see it!!! >o< First thing Myself,  bc_wolf_74,  flix_wyvern and Mosky did the Fursuiters panel. This went for what seemed ages, but I think it went really well! ^o^ we got alot of answers answered differently as we all have our own way of doing things ^___^ SO it was rather insightful for each other aswell!

Afterwards we were stuck doing the tails and ears panel, with extra help from Juz Bunny too!! (much needed help!!!) This was an unexpected event. With only 1 hour to do it in. Most people didnt get anything done so they had to watch. But with what we did, i think it was a partial success! I hope all the attendees understand it's not really possible to get them made in an hour! :p especially when there was about 3 pairs of scissors between 20 people ^o^ arr wells.

After all that, a much needed lunch break! X_X Grouped up all the peeps who had suits made by me and went and had a 'vixen made fursuit photoshoot!' can't wait to see all the pics! Then off to the 'History of Midfur' panel! (in suit!) This was fun ^^ there wasnt alot of peeps there, but it was good to talk amongst us and chat about old midfurs before it was a con.. and our favourite past times! Ooohh yehhh! (go fursuit put put!! I miss you!!) XD

Chilled for a bit at the bar, went and got my midfur chocolates from aussiehusky and hung about the dealers den for a while ^__^

Dressed up as a pirate, caught some of the talent show and later danced for a bit. Met up for our 'ScotchCon' (an event we started at Midfur X.. bring your own *expensive* bottle of scotch to enter!) In which we then then share nips and discuss the booze! Unfortunately the room it was held in got cluttered with random non scotch con goers and got rather loud XD we ended up going for pizza at 3am then back to the room with less people... eventually we turned in at 4 am! X.x (and no, i didnt get drunk.. just tasted the scotch is all)

Sunday 5th: DEAD tired... got up for the ' fursuit parade' we walked tot he park for photos then around a few blocks in the blistering heat X.x After that I changed into my dragon (because of it much more awesome vision) so i could play in the 'fursuit olympics!' Good fun!! Made it to the end, but crashed in to  fulton in the 3 legged race, in which they just beat us in! XD gyaahh! XP Its was awesome fun! (ps.. who was i paired with??)

Food, then hung about the pool deck for ages.. was an awesome day for swimming! Then got changed into the Joker and headed down to the comedy performance!!  Kagemushi pretty much OPENED for  anthrax-fur! (who did a splendidly awesome job me thinks!! woo!) Then on to the charity auction! this took a while (over time) but I think it should have gone longer! XD it was so much fun! I hope to donate next year! I think we raised over $7700 for the lost dogs home! ^o^ Aussies rock at charity donations!

End of the night, the first DJ up was SOOO GOOD! He played songs we know and mixed them.. even bird is the word! lol! I love mixes i can familiarise with! ^o^ I went to quick change into suit but he had gone.. awwrrr.. BBF was on next, Twas also very good, but a bit slow compared to what i'm used to. Usually is all 'dance dance dance dance' but his way of DJ starts slow, then pumps up at the end of the night. I still had a good time tho!! ^o^

Ended our night around 3am... X.x Sooooo tired!

Monday 6th: Home time! Another $70 taxi ride, check in and line ride. 1/2hr late plane so we got free TV shows!! lol, the other plane didnt have tv, so this was awesome. Watched futurama, some snowboarding, news about the flood at home and some history ^_^ Got back to Sydney, trained and drove back to the car.. packed up and went home!

After all the trains, airport shinanigans, driving and taxi rides.. we worked out that all this time together would probly be the same as driving down.... we're thinking of driving next year! And with it split between a group for fuel and driving hours, would be cheaper too!

Awesome hugs to:
:bc_wolf_74icon::
All the ACTfuronair team,  kraden  jeneara  carnival and my sexy  crazy2287 for helping me around while in suit.. and suiting me up! I love YOU <3

There is many many more of you too!! <3

And thats my Midfur write up.. sorry its long if you read the whole thing! I like to write it up for me anyways like a regular journal!

~Vixen

It's almost here!! <3 Midfur, the Biggest Aussie Fur Convention starts this Thursday! XD Can't Wait! YAHH!

This will be our 5th Midfur! Our first was in 2006, and we've been going every year since ^^ I always say this, but I do miss the random city tours we did before Midfur turned into a Convention ^^; It was very new and a bit crowded/ hard to get used to such busyness when it turned into a con! Its no where near as relaxed XD But I still enjoy it, and it's improving every year too ^-^ (but i sure wish we could have stayed at The Vic hotel.. it was SOOO nice there!)

Crazy and I will be heading to Sydney with BC and Spence on Wednesday, then catching the plane Thursday Morning where we will also be sharing a room together at The Rydges Hotel!

Can't say I'm looking forward to the weather.. it rains every Midfur! *RAGE!* >.< Hopefully its not mega rain so we can still do outsidey stuff ^_^ I'd hate to be stuck inside the entire time X.x

I've got so much to organise before going and much to pack!! Hopefully I wont forget anything XD

I've also got a bunch of midfur based Pictures to submit too, so i hope to get them up today/ tomorrow ^__^

Anyways, to those going... probly see you there!! (and I apologise in advance if i dont know who you are, even if i've met you before ^^; I'm forgetful with names! I mostly associate people with their USERNAME and the icon they have!)

If i dont update here before i go.. then.. I'll be sure to tell many-a-tale when we get back XD

GYAH that took ages, stolen from  Keenyfox!!

I moved it around a bit cause i like anime better ^___^;;

Last Thursday I flew all the way down to Tasmania! Why? For  carnival's Mad Halloween Shindig!

Got into Tazzie around 7pm, caught a bus to the hostel i was staying at and then trekked around for ages trying to find some food! All i found was some pubs... but i wasnt going to go in alone at 9.30 at night ^^;; So I didnt find food, and went back to sleep =3

Friday I learned that i was heading in the wrong direction for food and found out where all the stores were! Bought some t-shirts and went walking to the docks, sat down at a park for a while until it was time for Carni and Kraden to come pick me up ^_^

Went back to Carni's place for the ArtJam! First ever artjam of this kind and it was alot of good fun!! (n Carni gave me little pressies for myself and my Crazy one!) ^__^ Lots of madness and fun happenings were had!! And met a few awesome peeps including Carni's 'Turm' XD

Later on Carni and Kradz were recording Actfur and I hung about to see how it was all done ^_^ When that was all over, Tom made us FOODS of nom!! And we watched Cloverfield (my first viewing, not as bad as i heard it was! i rather enjoyed it ^^)

After that it was getting late and Carni and Kraden walked me back to the Hostel =3

Saturday I went and had nomfish off one of the floating fishboat/fishshops! It was REALLY NOM!! OMG! Met Carnzorz and Kradz to go to in to town, bought a huge wildlife book and a book called 'the loaded dog' ^^ Then headed to Salmanca markets! Bought a chooky in a nest figure and some tazzie fudge!! <3 And bought carni a crochet banana that she wanted X'D

After that we headed back to Carni's and went to the Airport to pick up Kyle....which we were also, supposed to pick up Matt, but had forgotten ^^;;; So got Matt then we all went along with another car of peeps to the Wildlife park for a BBQ!

Lots of neat little critters and lots of Tazzie devils! <3 And a Cockatoo that give girls 'flowers' which was actually a stick of leaves he picks. He gave them all to Carni XD

At the BBQ a guy came up with a tiny pink baby wombat he *jokingly* said "Got something else for you to put on the barbie!" XD lolz and Kyle fell in love with all the kangaroos XD

After that we took Matt home and then went to Carni's before heading out for dinner. We had PIZZZZAAA

Sunday, Halloween!!
First up I went on a Mountain bike tour up to Mt Wellington and rode down to the Cascade Brewery, then back into town. The only day that it was Pouring with rain and full of fog too! So I didnt see any awesome views and i got SOAKED. But it was alot of good fun! I'd do it again on a day that is sunny =3

Then I dried off and went to help set up for the party. (which of course at this time, it turned sunny and clear X___x

The party was pretty much set up already, and Danny was there ^^ Picked up my costume and came back for Pumpkin Carving! Here in Aus, we dont celebrate halloween much/ at all. No one goes trick or treating that i know of anyway. But some peeps have partys! This is the first year i've seen actual 'carving' pumpkins for sale and Carni had 30 there for everyone to hack into and make neat creations!I made a scared pumpkin and a foxy one ^_^

Then i spent about 1/2hr getting costumed up as peeps started pouring in for the party! I went as the Joker, but a much more feminine version (skirt, stockings long hair ect) Kraden was an awesome doctor with a hate needle of dOOm, Carni was a nurse and Tom was an awesome creepy monster dude with what looked like a twat on his head XD (sorry turm!) But it was really creepy and cool ^^ Danny went as a Mafia man dude, Kyle was the result of a weapons experiment (with blasted hole through the gut and all!) There was lots of awesome costumes there!

Much lollies and booze where had by most! I didnt really drink much, but i can have a good time without the drunkyness =3

At the end of the night I helped pack up the decorations and such, We all walked back to our place of sleep.

Quite tired Monday, for an early rise to meet up with the others for breakfast! Then visited alot of shops and stuff, then went to the Museum of Taz, which was frikkin awesome XD I had to leave to catch a plane, but I'll have to go there again to see the rest!

When leaving, Kradz, Carnz and Danz took me to my Hostel so i could pick my bag up, of which the key person wasnt there X_X and i was freaking out about missing the bus >.>... but he eventually came, got my bag and then went to wait for the bus *phew*

Had to say goodbyes, ;_____; I really enjoyed my time, I would like to see more of taz one day (as this was my first trip there!) Its a really beautiful place to visit ^^ (reminds me of NZ a little, minus the huge mountains)

All in all, it was totally worth the trip! Crazy man couldnt make it, he had work on and bettys. =(

Thanks Carni for a great weekend and hosting such a super awesome party!

I might every now and then submit a clip of some of my favourite bands/song to share with you all ^_^


Today we have Lordi! Lordi is AWESOMEPANTS! A Finnish Metal band whom once won the Eurovision contest (2006 i think?) Which is when I first heard them =D

They always dress as creepy demon dudes for all their videos and even live! Not *all* their songs are awesome, but a good majority of them ROCK!

This is the song they won Eurovision with> ENJOY!
the start looks like it'd be crap with cheerleaders, but seriously.. it ends! keep watching!!! or just listen...

This Video is INSANE!!
~Enjoy!

THEY ARE AWESOME!!! ^__^ I wanted to share a 13min long live video, but the embed wasn't working for me... So i'm linking it instead. (this also could be cause its not a youtube video)

http://www.shockhound.com/videos/11....._-Apocalyptica


EDIT: Fuzzyball showed me what to do XD here's a youtube link to a live one by Apocalyptica, their version of "One" By Metallica! <3



Enjoy the cello heavy metalists! \m/>o<\m/ AWRR YEH!

H'Ok.. so,... uh... yeh..

Back on the first weekend of the month I had a small meet up due in Kiama! But alas, of all days, the car decided to get a hole in one of the radiator hose things and bad things *almost* happened. I saw that my temp was WAY up and pulled over with a cloud of doom steam and the such.,,, Great... >.> I waited around for it cool a little to see what the problem was, refilled the water and slowly headed home. At this stage my meet up peeps had to change plans and come to see me instead... after a few stops and to get some water from a property so i could make it home, I was home again! By this stage every one was only 20mins away! So it was a slow trip.


Anywho, meet was all well and good ^^

Robbie and Sli crashed the night, then the next day we went geocaching! ^o^ twas good and a little rainy, but was good to go for a ride on the M'bike! Sli left, and Robbie an I headed to do some more caching, which led us to practically a dead end, had to turn back to get to the real destination!!! XD Then headed home and went with crazy to Stone grill ^___^

Next morning, Sli and and Anthrax came around! Did alot of randomness and then went out in the mud to ride the dirt bike and sli took his 4WD for some extreme madness in the mud! XD Had haps of mad fun!!

That night robbie took off just as some extreme weather was coming. We had over 130km winds that night, taking out the power half the next day. Alot of trees/branches and such had fallen around the area. Sli and Anthrax had to take off. Later we went out to visit BC, his area still had no power, with about 3 power lines taken down by trees on his street alone!

Any who, due to this black out we lost the power supply to our modem. I could check e-mails and such with mobile nets, but nothing much since then. Today crazy fixed up the power supply with his skills and so far so good! ^^;;

Now for some catching up!

Now we be off for one last snow run before the season ends (snow melts)... season normally ends around Sep10th, but its looking good still till perhaps October!

Got lots of awesome arts in the works too! But I cant post them (or wont post them) until around Midfur time ;)

But I shall have more i can post in the meantime!! X3

thats all for now!

So some of you will have noticed the submissions i posted of the custom snowboarding fursuits i made for myself and my mate crazy! Very simple compared to my regular suits, but i wasnt sure how well they'd hold up in extreme mode XD But sure enough, they have survived the rain, snow, ice, and crashes that go along with snowboarding!! X3 I may upgrade to better looking ones one day! =3

We went to Perisher all last week for a Ski week in which Crazy was competing in, I got to stay on the snow and bum around there while crazy was with his group of... i dunno? 80 or so down at Jindabyne! The first few days were beautiful! Full sun all day but hard as ice snow, so not very good to land on ^^;; The last 2 days saw rain, which made it slow to ride, but alot softer landings XD and compared to the beginning of the week, alot of it melted away >.>.... AND of course, practically just after we left, it decided to snow, and i mean SNOW! 65cm in 24hrs? Thats a F*^CK tonne!!(for Aus) It would have been sooo good to have that! And also with all that snow they opened up the whole place! when we were there alot of trails and traverses where closed X.x arr well.. Moving on!

In less then 2 weeks time Crazy and I will he headed to NZ to snowboard! We hear that once you've boarded/skied else where than AUS you'll never want to do it here again! XD But, I think i'll still like home even if its crap compared to other places...(also cheaper to travel within your own country!)

We'll be ripping it up at Wanaka and the Remarkables which hopefully will be EXTREMELY AWESOME! XO

Tomorrow our new batch of eggs are due to hatch from the incubator! Our current chooks are 27weeks old this week and being awesome as always (you may have noticed the chook photos too i put up! XP) ANywho, the new lot isnt for us, they are for Crazy's muma cause her newest chooks got eaten/killed by a foxy ;_; We hopefully get to keep a few....^-^

UMMM.. not a whole lot else going on besides making fursuits ^_^ all going well too! My fur samples come tomorrow! yey!


There will be fursuit snowboarding Video of Crazy coming soon! (hopefully!) I'll post it here when done ^o^

~Vixen

OMG! Our little baby chickens we hatched at the end of January are now 22 Weeks old and one has just laid her first egg!!
Very awesome surprise! She even laid it in the nest box I made ^o^


We still had all 8 hatched chickens up until a few weeks ago. We ended up having 4 hens and 4 roosters, 3 of the Roosters crowed and started to rape their sisters, and we don't want any of this, so they had to go. I tried hard to give them away, but no one was interested >.> SO we (well, crazy) had to do what had to be done. And now we have a vege patch.

We still have one rooster, he's a little fluffy silkie bantam and beautiful in colour (he's like a brown foxy colour!) Dont think he crows yet, and he seems a little too small to try get on the girls XD His name is Rabies. He is also a little odd, doesnt like to be picked up and when you try to catch him, he runs into fences and other chickens! One of the girls pick on him too XD We even had to trim his head fluff so he could see better ^^;

Our chookin's are awesome XD I will post some photos up in my scraps soon!

Thats all for now :>
