RAWR!!!

It's okay people, I'm not dead, just in hibernation!
Have I ever told you how much I hate winter? Well, I do, with a  fiery passion.
I do/have been making some random updates on twitter, so you might have seen some stuff. (on the front page is my twitter address/ plus go and have a look at some of my photos i have up there.)

I'm not sure when I last updated, and or what I told you and I could read over old journal entries, but I am lazy

So, I've been looking for work, and I have been getting some here and there as a farm hand/dairy hand/working in chicken sheds.
Not the most glamorous of jobs, far from it. But when you get close enough to $20 and hour it is so totally worth.

Which means, i have now enough money to buy a supernatural convention ticket. (no need to sell my soul, always a bonus) however mum can not see the point of spending $850 on a ticket. Obviously she is not obsessed...wait...maybe this is becoming a little bit of a problem...

We got flooded about 2 or 3 weeks ago, the water was pretty epic, I still don't know how high it got, but I post some photos on Twitter as I didn't think they were good enough to put up here. I have seen higher floods though.

Winter must be the time for dying and i guess in many ways it is.
My beautiful dog Buddy (you may have seen some of my photos) died a month ago. He was very old, we think about 14 years old, so I had him for more than half my life. In the last few months he went down hill quickly, losing condition and weight. He got to the stage he could no longer walk with me in the mornings and I had to carry him. I couldn't bare not taking him, he loved his morning walks so much, and he seemed to get depressed when I didn't.
We suspect he may have had diabetes or renal failure, or maybe cancer. Maybe a combination of  all three. In the end, he couldn't move, and whimpered in pain in the mornings until I came and patted him, and I had decided if he hadn't died by the morning we could take him to be put down. (I had held off, because he hated the vets and loved car rides so I didn't want his last car ride to be to the vets, you know)

I stayed with him and told him he was allowed to let go.
The next morning, finally and mercifully he died.

A month on, I still look for him, go to talk to him, and go to get his lead to take him for his walk, or go to make his dinner up each night.
I'm not totally sure what I am suppose to do now without him.
He was my best friend, and shoulder to cry on when I need him the most and when all others seemed to be at a loss.
I miss him, very much.
This is the last photo I took of him about 3 weeks before twitpic.com/54x4u7
I will post it on here eventually.

Moving on to happier news.
I got a kitten.
Well I caught a feral/wild/dumped kitten 2 months ago.
We had seen it slinking around the house for sometime, and we figured with someone had dumped it or its mother and she had kittens.
Anyway I trapped it in the car shed and it took me 20 minutes, climbing over junk, to catch it, but I did.
I kept it in a small cage for a couple of days and got it used to being fed and people/me. Than let it out in my old bird cage (no birds in it anymore obviously) The same day, I had was able to get it out and of its box and pat it and it went to sleep on my lap.
Making rapid progress, she is super quite and spends a lot of time purring and than playing. My dad doesnt like cats and is ignoring the fact I plan to keep it. So I have been sneaking it in to the house when he is at work and if its cold or rainy she sleeps in my room. (dont tell him) She loves playing with Maddie (our lab) and pounces on her tail and plays hide and seek with her.
We took her to the vet who said she is a girl (we figured) and is about 3 or 4 months old, and that we will need to get her de-sexed ASAP. So I plan to do that in the next week or so.
Especially when dad has finally (grudgingly) agreed that I can def keep her. I have named her Nova. (As in Super Nova, new star/star burst, originally if it was a boy i was going with Casanova because she is a smooch but yeah) I have also put pictures of her up on twitter. And I will put them up here when I get around to it >>

Next week, my friends and I are dressing up and seeing the midnight screening of HP cos we are super cool.
I am looking into buying a DSLR if anyone wants to recommend one, please tell me, its getting very confusing, looking at all the different models.

I have photos to upload here but I am kinda sorta suppose to be banned from the net, (cos yeah i am suppose to have used it all whatever!) So keep your eyes peeled.

One last thing.

I am trying to raise money to prevent cruelty to animals through the RSPCA here in Australia.
It is called cupcake day and the theory is you make cupcakes, and sell them to raise money.
I am planing to have a tea party in August with my friends, but you can make online donations to my page.
So please donate, as little or as much as you want. Every little bit helps. I know in this economic crisis it can be difficult, but please try. Thank you!
(I am still working out the kinks, new websites confuse me so zoom around til you find the donate button )

To donate please go here -------------------------------->  www.fundraise.rspcacupcakeday.…

Toodles Peeps! I will try to be around more soon. xoxox


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You know you need a life when:

1) You can relate anything to supernatural, from music on the radio (AC/DC or Asia) to dregs in the kitchen sink (OMG! ITS SHAPE SHIFTER SKIN!)

2) You start watching all your dvds again so you can compile your own Supernatural playlist. (Than make your ring tone 'smoke on the water')

3) You randomly burst out saying lines from the show, whether it is in context or not to the conversation you are having.

4) You find yourself daydreaming in the middle of class than when you get asked a question you are momentarily confused as to why you are studying said subject instead of researching monsters.

5) You start referring to yourself as Dean and your younger brother Sammy and scream Bitch and Jerk to each other.

6) When you can't sleep, so you start to go through all your old chick mags under your bed, which are gathering dust, and find pictures of Sam and Dean to add to your ever growing collection of 2699 images. And you have to stop yourself screaming at your luck.

7) You spend more time rping a supernatural character (Anna) than having a real life.

8) You have watched so many eps and or read fics than told your mum that even now she ships dean/cas and comments that "Oh wow! yeah I can see it now!"

9) Still on the same track, you've read so many fics, the line between what you have read and seen is starting to blur and you can't remember if it was actually in the show.

10) You have become super possessive of your car radio/stereo, You're the driver you pick the music/radio station and the volume everyone has to deal with it and if they even think about touching it while your driving you pull the car up and chuck them out.

11) You have finally found out that there will be a SPN convention in Australia (finally) and you are saving your a$$ off and are desperately wanting/looking for a job, and are doing everything (Including maybe selling your soul to get tickets and only short of selling yourself...maybe) so when your an the interview and they ask you why you tell them its to get to Sydney to see the SPN boys.

12) You have a gazillion fanfics half wrote and or beginning in your head but for some damn reason you can't get onto writing them!

13) You only look at cars to buy with decent boot size, so you can have a hidden boot, after all where else are you going to put all your guns, salt and holy water etc

14) You have finally found an Impala to buy $13 000, whooo! You could empty your savings account to buy it, but you mum is still putting her foot down, than you hear petrol prices are to reach $2 a litre you would never be able to run it!
So you are reduced to searching for a toy model Impala to try to fix the hole in you heart.

15) You look at little babies clothes and managed to find tiny jeans and check and mini leather Jackets!!!! (I have pictures, and mum was like you don't have kids!) All which would be suitable to dress you children so they will be demon hunting siblings
(or whoever's you steal)

16) Similar to the one above, if you don't have kids, you try to dress you brother.
"Hey tom look rings! *drags him over* NO! OH MY GOD LOOK LEATHER JACKETS/JEANS/BRACELETS/ETC, NO ELLY! STOP DRESSING ME UP AS THE WINCHESTERS!"

17) You have started a supernatural tool kit, Salt, holy water, stakes, lighters, torches, guns, petrol, silver, knifes, the list goes on as you think of extra things or watch the eps over AGAIN!

18) You treat yourself and download an ep (the man who would be king) only to regret it, because you cried the whole way through it. How could Dean and Cas break up! And both Cas and Dean's heartbroken faces.
Thank God no one was home Because they would have told you it is just a show and to get over it...again
*Grabs Cas in a tight hug, its okay baby, don't cry! Dean still loves you! Dean tell him you love him damn it, make him change his mind!*

19) The idea of Cas (maybe) dying makes you physically sick.

20) You've taken to attacking your bro every time he says Cas has gone dark side and Dean is going to have to kill him. Which BTW he has been saying since the beginning of the new season. Little shit! how does he know?!

21) You lay awake tossing and turning worrying about the outcome of the final (i haven't seen it don't tell me!) go through previous eps in your head either just worrying or thinking how things could have been different...(OMG! fanficing the angst on Dean's behalf!)

22) People from Supernatural are appearing in other shows. And you have a theory.
Peeps in SPN start of in Dark Angel, than move to Stargate/Criminal Minds/SPN, Castle, No Ordinary Family.
Damn there was another one I saw someone...I'll think of it later.

23) You spend half an hour looking at the price of Rock Salt 1 cent per 10grams BARGAIN!

24) You own two copies of the dvds *guilty*

And I will add more as i find out what else i have been doing ^^

Oh and i once read this fic and i can't remember where i read it, but the thing i remember out of it was that cas asked dean to carve the sigil in his chest and dean made sam look away and he kissed/bit cas shoulder to distract him. it was so painfully beautiful! if anyone knows of the fic im talking about, please PLEASE point me in the right direction to find it again, cos it was fantastic!
