Sammirah jellykans Sammirah jellykans That cue little guy in the header seeems to be a new item, part of Champion Halls - a new bundle? Am having fun watching the gif explode over and over again....easily thrilled, I guess, but that's an enchanting critter1 Oh yeah, a new bundle! I guess that means items to add to my wishlist... Trying to save money so I don't think I'll be buying any cash just now. I generally wait until things hit the Marketplace. I quit buying Autocash (bought it for fish) when they pulled the full-featured Memphis. I see a lot of aquariums ow with only Lite fish, and a lot of siggies with no aquarium at all. And...beware of yellow snow! Usually I look at all the new items... end up buying 2-3 at ~20k and putting a few more on my wishlist but never buy. At first glance these seem mostly school or sports themed? Ick. My avatar taste has become narrower in the last couple of years. I used to do all sorts of styles, it's mostly either steampunk or fantasy these days. And a lot of cream and beige. I tend to lots of reds or oranges, and now some very pale pink-to-beige. Or I Am's, which I adore.

Sammirah jellykans Sammirah jellykans Sammirah I love the dusty snow! It's fun to just throw handfuls around. Lol. I need more encouragement. Am not all that picky, though, as long as I am able to do more than play snowshovel with my hands - when it wont hold together at all, it seems like too much work to me. Along about junior high, I ran into iceballs - some guys would use a fun snow fight as a way to vent aggression, and would put chunks of ice in their snowballs - that is just plain nasty. Yikes! Nasty for sure. I think the thing I like the most to do with snow is walk through it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE forests covered in snow. I could walk around in quiet snowy forests forever. They're easily my most favourite kind of place ever. Um, yes, deciduous trees (the kind that lose their leaves in the fall) were the first thing I really learned to draw....and I love to wander around them with snow draped all over their branches, almost makes believing in dryads an easy proposition... What about snow angels? Those will get you cold fast, but are so much fun! I'm happy to play in the snow for about 10 minutes, then I'd rather go inside with some hot soup or coffee and stare at the pretty snow from inside. i'm the idiot who can't wait to get out there, then gets snow down the back of my pants when I make snow angels and soaks my hands making a snowman, then comes roaring in,in dire need of something hot and something fast to warm my insides along with clean dry clothes. Potato Soup (FAST) Boil potatoes. Line up green onions for chopping and Velveeta for cubing. Mash potatoes, pour in a ton of milk and mix, pour in chopped green onions, and pour into each bowl with a 1" cube or so in bottom of the bowl before pouring in the soup. Yum!

Sammirah Kujujuwa Exxos Kujujuwa Exxos Sammirah That's funny. I live in Canada and we don't get snow every year. I think it is because of the altitude. Las Vegas is 2,001 feet above sea level at the airport, about 2,500 feet towards the edges. Where I live, we're about 3,100 feet. So while it rarely sees snow down in Las Vegas proper, out near the edges, we'll usually get about a week of light snow days per year somewhere between December and February. It's not a lot, usually only about 1/2" to 1" at most, but it happens. But then again, most of the Canadian population lives in the parts that extend south a fair ways. As far south as the top of California no less. My favorite was a couple years back when you were hit by that awesomely amazing snow storm that broke all of your palm trees, and I had only a few inches here in Chicago. I need to get back to Vegas, I had such an amazing time there. smile And the next time actually get me in a picture so our friends believe it actually happened. The Elusive Exxos: Caught on Tape! I have your voice on the camcorder from the aquarium... maybe our reflection in one of the tanks if I look hard enough. 3nodding Is that the aquarium at Mandalay Bay? Ja. Shark Reef.

Out of all the things I have done since moving here, I think the ones worth doing are Shark Reef and Cirque du Soleil's KA.
If you want horrendous nightmares, you can go to the natural history museum and look at the decaying australopithecine replicas, the elevators open right on them and they are falling apart in the most disturbing ways.
Shopping is pretty sub-par now. So many of the specialty stores and zany shops have closed down. I think even Capes'n'Canes (Yes, a real pimp supply shop) has closed last I was on Sahara. The economy tanking has killed so many big anchor stores that the little ones that were just hanging on have tanked too.
The Atomic Museum is somewhat worth seeing. It's pretty somber as you would imagine. Though they have an atomic test simulator that is worth the admission price if you want to be scared shitless (it's okay to say that on gaia and in the AGA in this case because it is true) at what man unleashed. It is an isolated room in the museum with furnace jets, grit jets, huge speakers, a massive screen, and the entire room shakes. It's made to replicate what it felt and sounded like to watch the first atomic bomb detonation from the watch zone.

Having a fun relaxing time at my friend's place on the beach! I might not want to leave! It's sooo beautiful over here in London, ON! There's a hawk's nest not too far from my friend's place, so you see hawks flying and diving for fish all day!
