This journal entry is for the secret santa I've gotten so far.





















































































































And yet again Dave is going all out. xd

Bran is going through some heavy s**t right now. You all know my home was taken by Katrina. Well my parents have lost their minds. My mom is talking suicide and they claim they can't wait one ******** year for a new house to be built.
So I have to deal with that every day plus my own depression. I also have to deal with my fiancee' pressuring to move into his small cramped house with his parents that I can't stand. I could stand them for three days like the arrangement we had before the hurricanne but not after.

What I'm trying to say is I'm going into a mini-hiatus meaning I'm going to be on Gaia still but I may not have the energy to role play my pets, etc. etc. I really just need a place to get away from all the drama and I'm hoping Gaia can stay one of the places.

Hey guys, as most of you know my home was basically destroyed by Katrina. I left my doll collection behind and have been successful in finding all of them again except for my most precious one, of course.

This doll was sold on QVC durring the years of 1995-1997. I can't remember the year exactly. My friend bought it for me as a gift. I believe her name was Melissa and she was done by Seymour Mann. The artist was Pamela Phillips. The doll herself had aurburn hair that was piled up in curls on top of her head. Only two tendrils dropped down to frame her face. She had a white/cream frilly victorian dress on and in her right hand she held one of the old time victorian play hoops.

If anyone knows the name of the doll, where I can buy it or can help out in any way I would be most appreciative.

Sad that the first thing in my journal is going to be a rant.

It was brought to my attention that some people feel that if you have X amount of a breedable, more than likely a popular one, that you shouldn't participate in anymore flat sales, raffles, auctions etc. etc.

All I have to say to that is Bullshit.

I have alot of pets. Tons of them. I have multiples of the popular ones like the Talaye, FTC, and kitsu's. And if I see another one that I like in an auction, flat sale or raffle then I'm going to go for it.

Now I'm not an unreasonable person. I generally stick to auctions because the pet is much more customizable or is a special breed. I can probably count on one hand the number of flat sale breedables I have. I tend to leave those to the people that can't compete in the auctions. Hell, I've tried to help people win flat sales because I'm usually fast when it's just a speed one.

Lately the breedables forum has been filling up with newer people to the breedables scene who don't have much gold or may not even know how the shops work really. And while I admire their enthusiasm and their passion they show bad form when they don't win a flat sale or realize that they can't compete in the auctions. And it's not all the newer people doing it, there's been some regulars too.

It's gotten to the point where I'll see a breedable that I want and I'll already have like, 3 of that one. And the first thing that pops into my head is "How many people are going to start to whine because I'm interested."

I shouldn't have to feel that way. I shouldn't have to feel guilty because I can afford multi-popular pets. I worked hard for my gold and items just like everyone else. No one should put a guilt trip on anyone who wants a certain breedable.

I give away breedings to people I feel deserve them. I co-own with friends on pets that they want but don't have yet or can't afford. I buy raffle tickets and event breedables for people who I know really deserve the pet. Need gold for a guild? No problem I'll help you out. I'm not a greedy b***h. I love helping out people who are really passionate about getting that one breedable that they really want AND who show courtesy even when they don't win the flat sales or auctions. People that can be big when they don't win stand out to me. I'm glad when I can help them out.

I think I've gotten this out of my system. Next time before you accuse a person of having too many of the popular pets when they're going for another one wether it be in a flat sale, auction or raffle, think before you post about it. Or if it bothers you that much PM them and have an intelligent conversation with them about it, instead of dragging it out into the thread about how unfair it is.

Lyth made this banner and it expresses how I feel perfectly.
