    I am giving not inconsiderate thought to a Eurorail Holiday of the Austro-Hungarian Empire some time next year. A Krakow-Bratislava-Budapest-Vienna-Prague kind of thing.

    Thing is, I have no idea when Cutethulhu will arrive. I figured adding an additional five or six countries to his roster would be pretty sweet.

    I guess we'll wait and see when the time gets closer...

    Yah, just keep me posted if it looks like he'll be mailed out without time for you to get him.

    Well I suppose I could offer, but even though I've been killing time as a lurker here for years, I pretty much never post. Japan, Fukuoka-ken FYI, so not a new country but at least another person in Asia.

    It's still open to people from Asia and Australia, so you're welcome. Just send me your name, address, and whether you're ok with international shipping or not. You'll have to introduce yourself around at [chat] and let us get to know you a little bit too, though, just like HappyLilElf did when he signed up. :)

    Ah geez, I don't mind introducing myself somewhat but [chat] moves so fast I pretty much ignore it, and if I get caught up with work or something else I might not check the boards for days...

    That's actually how I feel. I was thinking about signing up cause hey, there's no one else in Korea/few people in Asia. But man, chat moves hella fast, plus its almost intimidating to just jump into

    So minor update: Things have been hectic given that we're in the middle of our move and the holidays and rad's kidney stone. We hope to take him out tomorrow when a friend's visiting to get all of the pictures. Hint: Octopi.

    Also, so long as we're still seeing Feral before we leave, we're going to hand Cutethulhu off to him when we go up to Oakland to ship our car since the week after this one will likely be just as busy.

    Descolada and Corbius - Just ease yourselves into it. There are plenty of times when [chat] is slow. Like Bob said, we really are a friendly bunch, we just tease each other a lot.
    Part of me is expecting cutethulu to get eaten by some kind of animal. Possibly in Australia.

    It is most likely to happen there more than anywhere else.

    Just drop by for like, 15 minutes every now and again when you have time, say hi, share something cool. Show us you're not just a schmuck.

    It's really not that demanding. :)

    Actually, here's the real update. Cutethulhu will be mailed out sometime before Wednesday of next week. We are not taking him to Hawaii because shit has been insane lately. We're hoping to maybe squeeze in there at a later date to have him shipped there.... you know, milk our special treatment and all.

    We want to take him now but we won't have time to do awesome things with him as soon as we get him so it's almost like a waste of that extra week if we combine the two.

    Is this acceptable, Passer? (And I think the stone passed yesterday. WHOO. )

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    Eaten there, or in Canada? You've got it moving through the vast Canadian cold/frozen plains/wilderness.... sometimes Polar Bears and the Frozen Gophers are quite vicious!

    When Cutethulhu arrived, of course the first thing we did was have a few drinks!

    DSC04654.jpg

    The next day we caught a ride with our friend.

    DSC04661.jpg

    We stopped by a giant dune by the beach.

    DSC04669.jpg

    People write things on the dune with debris and we decided to join in.

    DSC04672.jpg

    Afterward? The aquarium!

    DSC04685.jpg

    A wave hello from the deep!

    DSC04692.jpg

    A chance to use the word octopi!

    DSC04680.jpg

    And yet another!

    Hanging out with the birds.

    Oh noes!

    Oh noes!

    Cutethulhu hides for a while in the cannery area.

    DSC04693.jpg

    And pays respects to the dead.

    DSC04696.jpg

    DSC04695.jpg

    And finally a trip to Ed Ricketts's house.

    DSC04703.jpg

    DSC04702.jpg

    Then a return home to relax with the kitty.

    Dancing video will go up when we get back from errands.

    We'll get something in the next few days- we've just had the movers come, cleaned and scrubbed the house, and we're now staying at his brother's place and he's dealing with work trying to figure out when we're leaving.

    It's looking like it won't be till Friday at the earliest so we still have a day or two before we mail him off. Usually I am the one taking the hilarious Quid photos so there are not a lot of m that are acceptable to post on the internet that are not self-done lame myspace-esque shots. YAY.

    It'll probably be a while before I get Cutethulhu, but I'm moving out of my current apartment and not sure what the address of the new one is yet. I'll try to remember to post it here, but since Teh Spectre is sending it out to me (so far) make sure you double check with me on my correct address.

    He wanted to go on an adventure. But I told him that it just wasn't the right weather.

    The little guy tried to make himself useful and help with my paper but he just found it tooo boring.

    So he decided to just play with Mr. Tortimer instead.
