opposum

So, just had a very scary moment in retrospect...went to the garage for something in the dark and came back in the dark. Saw our friendly cat in the dark and said hi, then opened the screen door to get in and the fluffy cat that usually won't even let us get near it went in the corner between the screen door and the real door that lead to the inside. I said "oh hello there!" all happily, and as I opened the door that lead to the inside and moved to step inside, there was enough light to see that it was actually a opossum as I turned around a bit to reinspect and it ran across my feet and off the porch...

Why am I so retarded when it comes to spraying perfume?

This shocking and disturbing story and amazing life like illustrations are based on actual events that happened 15 minutes ago.








You would think after awhile I would learn to check which way the spray hole (can't think of any better way to word it) is facing.

I found out I can do something amazing! (By my standards of me)

So I accidentally found out I can type without looking at the keyboard! Most of you who read this probably already can, but I have never been able to. To me that's just something cool smart people do, and I wasn't to be included in that group. But now I am! Right now it's slower typing this way compared to typing while looking, but hopefully with practice I can get all super speedy!

Awesome Free Fractal Program




I found this awesome program called Apophysis 7x that you can download at that link. It is a semi-easy program to make fractal art with. I've had to find a lot of tutorials online so I could have a bit of idea of what I'm doing. Sometimes I can make some nice things, sometimes I have to tell myself that that particular image isn't working out and I'm not making it any better.

I made these 4 pictures with the Apophysis. Then I took it to Pixlr (a free image editing site similar to photoshop, but browser based) to make it darker in some places and highlight it in others to give a nice glow look.

I love ducks

Specifically black bellied whistling ducks. It started when I was 10 or so and my aunt and uncle would take me to the zoo in their town and we would go to the aviary with a handful of 25 cent feed that we got out of a little stand. I would throw some in  and the other birds would just eat it, while this little duck would yell at me. I'd yell back at him and tell him the food was behind him and he would just whistle loudly.  Then I would whistle at him and then eventually he would waddle to the back.

6 or so years later, they opened up the aviary where you could walk into it. The duck had posters up saying "Warning!! This duck is very territorial!!" ..sadly he then got moved to the swan pond, though I visited him through the fence because he would still be whistling at everyone who passed.

Now I'm 20 and he's back in the aviary with 2 more ducks. But (I'm quite sure it's the same duck) he's still on his own and the 2 other ones are a couple. An old lady sat on a bench in there and he snuck up under her and she said "Which bird is making those little whistling noises?" Then he bit the lady's pants. He didn't bite her, but I happily distracted him by whistling at him and he ran over and loudly whistled at me. The party with the lady said "Oh my...That's loud" So I fed him my millet stick intended for the parakeets, since they were in a place that I had to reach up to get them to eat.

Here he is biting me because I tried to touch him, he starts to sound like a rubber duckie.

Turtle Disappearance










She has never just disappeared like that before! I thought 7 months of love was gone to die somewhere and be found by smell.

I think my problem was because I moved back with my parents and was trying to make the filter quieter. The more water you put in, the less height the water has to fall, so the quieter it is. I filled pretty high, and moved the floating rock up so it would be even with the water instead of all lop-sided. So, not doing that again. But I did fix my noise problem!




 I cut a water bottle and tried putting it against the falling water with tape, but that didn't work too well. Finally after trying a lot of different things I finally got a string to suspend the plastic close enough to do something. It still makes a little noise, but is greatly reduced!
