It's Been a While

Tue Feb 17, 2004, 3:23 PM
Well howdy folks (the folks that's lookin', that is). It's been a while since I was last 'round these parts an' I jus' want to say that I have returned.

So what's been happening to me in the last year? Well, first off I've started keeping snakes! I have three at the moment, with a fourth on order (just waiting for mommy snake and daddy snake to put on some Barry White and do the love thang!) and two potential purchases if I can find a breeder. As you can imagine, this has consequently taken up a large portion of my time (handling three snakes a day for 30 minutes to an hour each day, researching snakes in general and researching the ones that I've got in particular, talking to dealers and breeders, shopping for their food, cleaning 'em out once a fortnight at least and generally getting all snaked up). I've also been making enquiries about setting up my own business - more about that some other time. And finally, I've really started to enjoy my job.

For those who don't know, I work in advertising. Okay, so I only work for a newspaper but that's not the point. The group that owns us has an annual national award ceremony for advertisements from the entire group (that's at least a couple of hundred newspapers up and down the country). And this year one of my ad campaigns came runner-up. Or to put it another (more positive) way - I am now a nationally acclaimed ad designer. Yay!

Okay, so maybe it's not all that amazing but I was proud of it.

Anyhew - that has pretty much been my last twelve months. Got a year older, grew more grey hairs, got fatter, went on another diet, etc, etc.

Hope that everybody's been well. Drop me a line if any of you are reading.

Ciao!

a random hello to you ^^

:heart: :peace: & :cookie:

Hi tea

It's been a while since I last came to DeviantArt and when I do I have a message waiting from you. That's so nice, to know that there's people out there thinking of me.

You asked about my plans to get an octopus. Well, I still haven't got one yet but that's mainly 'coz my life's been taken over by another pet - an American Black Rat Snake called Set. He's about a year and a half old (about 4'-4'6" long) and was given very little attention by his previous owners, so I've been making friends with him. He's now gotten so used to being handled that he actually waits for me to let him out when I get home from work, which is so cool. He's still a little nervous around strangers but he's much calmer than when I first got him.

How are you? I'm really going to have to chevk out some of the new additions to the archive over the next few days. I'm just so outta touch.

Anyhew. That's all for now.

Have fun.

Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?

What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire deviant life, that there's something wrong with the story. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.

You take the blue pill, the story ends. Your browser closes and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland. And, I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

I offer only the truth, nothing more.

Take: The Red Pill
Take: The Blue Pill

Fella Point Right spyed, nobody has ever done this before.
Ninja Point Right I know. That's why it's going to work.

Do not try and bend the spoon ...
