Well I know mines permanently ingrained in my memory
and I did post my fire pig picture in the draw a pig thread
I didnt even notice it looked like one untill you pointed it out ezz Yeay for homemade cards.....I think homemade gifts are the best!!!!! I always make presents and stuff. I think it shows more thought and meaning than a store bought gift. I hope your ideas come back ezz
Mmmmmmm Bonfire I got spoiled this weekend with all the fires.....Now I'm back to reality and a place where I cant have them unless I go camping somewhere......Man I cant wait to have a home of my own someday with a fire pit in the back yard

Yeay for finishing and getting it sent......I'm really good at making stuff for people but then I end up never sending it I do it all the time .....In fact I have three CD's that I made for people two months ago and haven't mailed. I usually end up waiting until I see them and hand them over in person. I'm terrible like that Yep a firepit is definately a perrequisite for me for wherever I end up.....plus plenty of room for my dog to run and run and run
Speaking of fire pits
*looks around the room*
Looks like we did a good job of trashing all the walls, now its time to build the viking lodge

Hammer? We need to get the logs before you can do any hammering. Growing old is mandatory; growing up is NOT.

*leaves and comes back with arms over flowing with various furs for the walls and floors*
good thing a friend of the family is a trapper/hunter or else I would've had to buy all these *starts to hang some furs up on the new log walls*

HEY fNi!!!!!!! **glomp** been awhile scince you've visited welcome back!!!!!
I tried soooo hard to get PDF tickets but alas
I couldnt. During first tier sales thier server got swamped and I couldnt get one then second tier sold out in like five minutes and I couldnt get me one little ticket as for wildfire I'll hopefully be there I just checked and theres still tickets but I wont have money for one untill friday so hopefully there will still be one for me then because I really really want to go. It would be a shame if I missed that one too especially since its only a short distance from where I am. Ela why cant you go to wildfire? theres still tickets

Loki, they have third tier tickets. Check the site. You can still get tickets for PDF.
I can't go to Wildfire 'cause I'm studying abroad in Japan for all of January.

Oops...I meant June. See what going to school does to your brain? I keep telling people school is bad for you, but no one believes me!
