    Whitetail deer are crazy overpopulated these days. They really need to be harvested. I'll be doing my part in a couple weeks. :D

    @Skye I try to treat myself to a trip to the hairdresser's every 6-8 weeks or so, it's such a boost to the self esteem and confidence, and you get to feel pampered and special without losing an awful lot of money or spending a weekend somewhere uber fancy.

    Note to the always-in-a-hurry ladies: always make time for the wash and blow-dry that's included in the price of your cut, it's as close to being a Goddess served by beautiful Celani as you might get!

    Finally went and got my haircut after so many weeks of procrastination.

    I'm not gonna lie, I firmly believe that a good hairstylist can do for you what a therapist can for a fraction of the cost.

    When you spend day in and day out looking at your hair in a complete mess, you feel like your life is equally chaotic and beyond your controllable. You're guaranteed to feel like shit.

    It takes a good, experienced hand to tame your hair, give you a good scalp massage and clean your follicles in a way that you'd never be able to do by yourself.

    Half an hour in the chair, a few snips of the scissors and you emerge like a whole new person and your hair is great so you feel great and look great.
    I guess therapists are for bald people then :)

    I haven't had an opportunity to get into the stand more than three or four times all season, and haven't bagged anything. Shoot a few for the both of us!

    I'll be hunting and Mississippi as well this year, so I'll do what I can! However, I don't hunt out of a stand. I either build my own blind or hide in some brush. It makes it less like grocery shopping with a rifle.

    I finally got to shoot my 6.5 Grendel rifle at long distances today!

    10/10 on a 10" plate at 500yds
    8/8 on a 16" plate at 800yds
    3/12 on a 16" plate at 1100yds
    (in my defense, there was 3-7mph wind that kept kicking up and dying down that was coming from my 7 o'clock)

    I indulged in some serious retail therapy today.

    New kitchen appliances, and lots of pretty, shiny things.

    It's really perked up my day.
    (D.M.A.): Cooper says, "Kyrra is either the most innocent person in the world, or the girl who uses the most innuendo seemingly unintentionally but really on purpose."

  • SobriquetSobriquet
    Hit the Hackers motherload on customer site today. Can't give details of course, but it's such a rush and the look in senior staff's faces is worth a million words.

    (Party): Mezghar says, "Stop."
  • SarathaiSarathai
    I saw the new Star Wars movie (midnight screenings in Australia).

    But I can't discuss it yet, because everyone threatened to atlatl me if I talked about it. :(

    (Yes, this is both a rant and a rave.)
    - (Eleusis): Ellodin says, "The Fissure of Echoes is Sarathai's happy place."
    - With sharp, crackling tones, Kyrra tells you, "The ladies must love you immensely."
    - (Eleusian Ranger Techs): Savira says, "Most of the hard stuff seem to have this built in code like: If adventurer_hitting_me = "Sarathai" then send("terminate and selfdestruct")."
    - Makarios says, "Serve well and perish."
    - Xaden says, "Xaden confirmed scrub 2017."

    Because even if it was terrible, he still has the satisfaction of knowing that before you.

    Just found out I have passed three of my classes with flying colors. Waiting back on the fourth one now.

    For the last week or two, we had been hearing a lot of scraping around in the attic. We had no idea what it was 'til one night, boyfriend's dad peeked up into the attic...only to have a momma raccoon come semi charging him. He, understandably, quickly shut the door to the crawlspace.

    A few days later, we had a few guys come out to set up traps for her, in which she was quickly caught. She didn't hiss or was angry at all - she was quite calm throughout the whole ordeal. They came and got her the next day, and was unable to find anything else in the attic, and thought perhaps instead of having babies, she was just pregnant. This was disproved when today, we heard yowling coming out from above for the majority of the day, and thus the guys were called again.

    And thus from the vents running through the house, was produced these little creatures...



    Their eyes are still shut, though the guys who removed them believes they're just about to open them fair soon, so perhaps a few weeks old at best. The noises they made sounded like very vocal kittens, nearly.

    Of course, being a few days without mom, we didn't get to linger too long as they obviously needed to be taken and fed as soon as possible. Four in total were found (the last was being pulled out when I took this). Having almost no experience up close with wild animals, though, and told they were both without teeth and docile, I got to hold one (which ended up being the loudest of the group of course) for a minute or two.



    As you can see, he/she wasn't really in the mood to take a picture, and just wanted to be fed. Might have a few other less blurry pictures from another camera that I don't have access to right now.

    Mom's being taken to be released "far, far away" from here. As she won't take the babies back now that they've been handled, the guys already have someone lined up to adopt them to keep them bottle-fed, with the apparent goal of eventually re-releasing them back into the wild.

    All in all, an adorable experience. :)
    And I love too                                                                          Be still, my indelible friend
    That love soon might end                                                         You are unbreaking
    And be known in its aching                                                      Though quaking
    Shown in this shaking                                                             Though crazy
    Lately of my wasteland, baby                                                 That's just wasteland, baby

    If I wasn't afraid of my elkhound wanting to eat one, I'd want one, too.

    I hate raccoons. They finger-paint with chickens and have dickish personalities.

    That said, I guess those are kind of cute. It's still like looking at a baby Sith Lords.

    Last winter there were these two raccoons that would visit our front door and patio at night time, they were so big and fluffy, and super adorable. Never opened the door, though. Afraid of being randomly attacked by one. We used to keep a bag of dog food out there, and they'd learned to open it and would steal the dog's food. lol. Didn't really mind. It was fun watching them climb around and look at things.
