    raccoon babies are back
    evidentially they found a way around the barrier
    they brought lunch
    one pushed some dead bird towards me. but i like mine grilled and with less feathers
    one found some chicken bones and decided to keep me company in the garage.
    crunch crunch crunch gag upchuck whine crunch crunch puke...
    loud enough to hear above my music. thank you little bandit. just the symphony i wanted to hear while cleaning out the garage.
    loud noises do not impress. high pressure water is fun. bright lights on the other hand.
    also i am about as threatening to them as the stars in the sky. Dave on the other hand is evidentally more frightening.

    now my legs hurt so bad from stuff i cannot walk right now. the pain is so friggen incredible it is making me kinda loopy. hope i do not have to go to the bathroom for a while

    huge storm system
    we get a fifteen minute sprinkle while other areas experience the apocalypse
    can we please get some damn rain. i am getting tired of watering everything every single night. only to see it wilting by the end of the day.

    on a good note. found a possible gaming group and game hangout.

    All it takes is a blackout to realize how much we rely on electricity. What's your most memorable story from a power outage?

    FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK WITH SHIT SPRINKLES!
    ... One of my Oscars. "the Puppies" is dead. damn it...
    He hates loud noises. and with the fourth around and such he has been having a stressful time. his brother does not seem to care as much. well we also have a loud crew reroofing the house near us. they start early in the day. while i am still sleeping or trying to sleep depending on what the hell they are doing at that point. and well he went to his hidey hole but seems to have been caught up in the plants or something there. for whatever reason he was dead over in his hidey area. his brother is ok right now and he is who i am really worried about. i had to separate them once. and they both went into a deep deep depression. they layed on the bottoms of their tanks and would not eat or really swim or anything til i put them back together. then they were like conjoined twins! i am going to try a mirror or something to maybe trick him into thinking his brother is still there and hope it works.

    and to think i just bought them a big new tank too... damnit... who is going to try to eat my fingers now and beg for food sticks and be water bound puppies if they both die... damn it.

    The Bandits are Back
    so i come in the house for a few minutes to eat something before watering plants and such and i hear digging. sounded like the ferrets in the box of rice. Close. it is raccoons in the bin of bird seed. i had left the lid off after i filled it up since i was going right back out. well all three are in the bin eating the corn and sunflower seeds and now some old stale ferret food. they are nervous of me but not terrified anymore. could get within a foot of them. they are pretty damn hungry too. I know they are scavengers but i have never seen them eat seed like that before. I am guessing pickins are pretty slim.

    So tonite i am letting them nom on the porch but tomorrow i am putting around stuff to keep them off the porch. Anyone that knows animals will know what keeps the wild ones away. not something for polite company though.

    Anyway trying to get pictures of them but with no flash and as old as my camera is it takes lousy lousy night time pictures. still i got a porch full of cute!

    Raccoon babies are back. and in my bird feeder! they got a taste for suet and are climbing into the feeder station i built. (nice to know it is that sturdy. i had my doubts. guess i did a better job than i thought.) cute little masked bandits. Honestly if i had the money i think i would go buy a gravity feeder cat food dish and feed em that way just to watch them. However they little demons will spell doom for my ponds if they stay in the yard so unfortunately i may have to find a way to bar them entrance. some sort of scent defense i think.
    Anyway til then OMG THE CUTE! and they even have the grace to give me a look of guilt when i catch them. i think they figured out i am not going to harm them. they don't run anymore but they do give that look cats and dogs give when they have been caught in something. (yes cats do give it if they get caught most of the time but if you are one second late then they did not do it :) )


    anyway went out onto the porch for nightly meditation and i hear a noise. i look over and there is one coming down the post and two tails dangling out of the side where the suet feeder is. silly things! and yes i know they could have rabies but they don't. i am a redneck and there are ways to tell if they do or don't. i really hope i never see the signs with them. i would hate to have to have them killed...


    I was going to do a recap of Anthrocon but then i realized no one would prolly care so i won't.

    AC be over
    OMG i am going to spend a week recovering from it...
    it was the usual blend of good and bad. but with both being really extreme. the good was FUCKING FANTASTIC! WOOO HOOO but the bad was OMG WILL IT END! (luckily no drama in that this year so that is a bonus!)

    Fantastic stuff was finding more local furs who are ARTISTS! WHOOO and the FIREWORKS! OMG the fireworks. but i will go on like an idiot about that later! Also lots of nice people who came to my rescue at times. (like the nearly passing out from low blood sugar while setting up the art show stuffs) and People actually bought some of my art. one piece went for fifty! and all my lanterns sold. and i may be getting some commissions for some. which makes me squee beyond belief! I have been doing them for years and had at first gotten a great response but then it died down.
    We also got mad donations for the WPAFW of which i am and i am sure that the Humane Society will be insanely grateful for.


    WILL IT END stuff was mostly shit like
    what else can go wrong in the art show set up (misslabled pieces and stuff i had to fix on site (thank gods i am paranoid and brought stuff for that) the massive low blood sugar hit which right before someone rescued me with a granola brick the world was swirling and i was entirely disoriented and felt like i was going to faint. lack fo sleep due to commuting back and forth to the con and having things i had to do when i got back from it late which made me have no sleep for even later. forgetting things that were damn important (paper work, tools, on sunday my frikken badge!)
    and one exceptionally rude person while collecting donations. but hey.

    OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
    AC tomorrow
    still have originals to scan, matt and bag
    plastic to cut to replace glass in one frame
    semi packing (since i am commuting)
    art bag to pack and ready
    bed to clear off for a friend
    a bunch of stuff to organize and get ready so i can just grab and go
    two wood frames that need hangers
    paper work for all the arts that needs filled out
    so many little things. sometimes i hate all the little things. they never take long in and of themselves but together that add up to an entire night of crap ahead and i need to eat again too (Oh god that new damn medicine i am on has me turning into an eat beast!

    hopefully the scanning will go easier than normal so i can post too

    oh and My FurAffinity account does have photos of the new lanterns i did that was will be in the art show... http://www.furaffinity.net/user/akirashima/

    I am so going to sleep through monday at this point after the con! and then it starts again for Pennsic!

    so i heard something on the porch
    And unfortunately i am going to have to work on the pics to see if i got anything since my camera does not have a flash or anything like that. but there on the porch sniffing around was an entire family of raccoons. OMG CUTE LITTLE BABIES! They were unfortunately afraid of me and with the light so low it made taking what few pictures i got almost impossible but oh i do hope they come back sometime. so damn cute. one was hiding under the grill on the porch making cute little whines cause he was scared of me. i almost got him calmed down but the rest of the family was panicking slowly next to the porch. which was really odd. they wanted to run. and run hard but all they did was mill around with thier heads low whining cause he was up on the porch. so i came back in so he could join his family and they could go on thier merry little way. So damn cute. i hope i do see them again sometime.

    Donations Needed. will be around at AC
    FEELING CHARITABLE?
    Then Please Consider This Worthy Cause!
    WPAFW CHARITY RAFFLE
    Benefitting the Beaver County Humane Society
    http://www.wpafw.org/charity.html

    We here at the WPAFW Charity Raffle strive to bring the best to you year after year in things you want to clutter your home with! To this end we beg like puppies while someone cooks bacon to the artists and crafts people and other generous furs and people we can find!

    Here I am begging now!* Please Consider this for your happy good deed for the year. We will be ever so appreciative, the animals at the shelter awaiting homes and a new bigger shelter will be ever so appreciative and the people that buy tickets in the thin hopes** of winning your donations will be appreciative!

    We are looking for art Originals or good prints (pg-13 please) Commissions of art or fursuit stuffs or even things like photography of Fursuits (fursuit glamour shots if you will). Also other items of interest such as art supplies and animal themed things and tech toys and many other things. Please have them be new or like new!

    I will be at AC on Saturday collecting stuff from the dealers as i can. I will look a bit like that Icon right there so if you see me and have something you think may be nice for the Raffle come on over and talk to me.

    or drop me a line here or at my e-mail - charity @ wpafw . org

    * i can do a video of me begging if it gets us really good stuff!
    **it's a raffle. only one ticket wins per item and some stuff gets buckets of tickets! that's pretty thin hope if you ask me.

    We got our third
    Yeah yeah yeah Ed McMahon is dead and died this week. but i have been so busy it seemed like weeks ago he died. so i stated that there would be a third death to go with MJ and Farrah Fawcett. well now we have it
    Billy Mays! http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,529328,00.html?mep
    i am really not sure how to take this one. i mean the guy introduced me to some products i faithfully use cause they fucking work like advertised. I have seen orange clean dissolve years of accumulated Pine tar like me putting my water colour palate under running hot water. and FUCK Oxyclean will get fucking cat spray out of stuff! So i am pretty sure he is in his heaven since if those cleaning products can do all the impossible things i have seen them do (which is why i continue to buy them) then i am sure that his soul was squeeky clean too! Oxyclean in the holy water gets the sin out of this sinner like magic!

    We will miss you oh Infomercial King of Kings! (sorry but he was hotter by far than Ron Popiel!)

    dear universe, it is old now.
    and coming from someone that thinks geological eras can be short that is saying something. You have accomplished something no one and nothing has ever done before though. You make me bored. and bored over things no one should get bored with. now when an art supply gets suddenly empty (the spray paint this morn) i just sigh and toss it away. when the baby finch was found dead i just cleaned him up and preped him for a funeral. no emotion or anything. i put the big painting away i was working on cause i know it will not be finished for AC like i have so wanted to do with it for three years now. you win and i do not care. I now just pick up the pieces of whatever you break. with naught but a sigh and move on. maybe a slight irritation now and then. I know there are things left that will still bother me to no end. i still have nightmares that you will harm or kill Aku or Dave or my Mom or some such. Just to get a rise out of me but i should hope you are bigger than that. I know i am and i am a part of you. though i also see how others act and what depths that they will dive to just to get a reaction so i know Brahma that there is still some growing up to do. But honestly can i just get some stuff done please. You know when you hurt me you are only hurting yourself as well. so stop cutting yourself you damn Emo Creator. I know pain is an experience but so is happiness and accomplishment and joy and laughter and relaxation and a million other things. Also the plague of flies was kinda neat now that i think on how easy they were in the end to kill. i may post photos...
