Double post of BLAAAH!Animal smells. Bleh!. I have always been an animal lover, but 'pee' smells are something I could never tolerate. My aunt has cats, but she didn't litter train them properly. You can smell it as soon as you enter her house. Sure they didn't shit anywhere other than the litterbox when they're inside, but they piss everywhere instead. She said the same thing "One of them just had an accident" But the smell clings. And since she's used to it, she can only seem to really notice it when it's fresh. She got used to the smell of stale cat pee. But other people can smell it staight away. I love my aunt, but she smells! - Bad! It clings to her clothes! The thing is, they end up walking in their own 'puddles' and then tread it everywhere they go. So if your cat pees somewhere, walks in it, then walks around he house and snuggles up to you, you're going to smell like cat-pee.
You really should make sure they're trained properly, that way the litter will soak up the pee and stop them from carrying it aroud the house and onto you and your stuff. Also, maybe try some of those plug in spray things, that deter cats from 'scent marking' in the house.
It is really easy to get aclimatised to smells if you're surrounded by them 24/7. I have the same thing as Cuz. I'm always lighting candles and incense and using herbs and oils, but i'm so used to it that I don't notice it anymore. That spicey 'witchy' (as my mates put it) smell clings and other people always point out that I smell like a herbalist or pagan shop. It's only when i've been away for a few days and return, that I notice it.

;D My grandma says I smell like a hippie store. I WISH I smelled like the Culture Shop. Closest thing I could find was this stuff called Spirit Guide. Close enough. I got this shirt made of 70% organic cotton and 30% bamboo fibers (remember the brown "Tree-hugging Dirt-worshipper" shirt I got in Yellow Springs, Vi?) and it smelled like that store even after I washed it like four times. Loved it! And it's sooooooooooooo soft. Need more shirts like that.
Well, since 2/3 of the people occupying this board are okay with the furry thing, might as well show you guys the picture I drew... after I clean it up a bit. My scanner's a little cruddy, doesn't give me a clear image sometimes.
Edit: Don't judge me. >_<

Well I'm honestly surprised that it's a horse. I don't see any horse Furries at Conventions or festivals. Cats, Dogs, or foxes and they usually have wings and extra shit on them.
Church play, oh my god the idea of using Puppets for next year is getting better and better. I know that kids will be kids and you're never too old to act a certain way but these kids were brought up better than this. they get together to do this and they just start fighting! fist fighting too! one whose like 12 decides to be a witch and fist fight over a stuffed sheep that our Shepard has. then some kid stuck some change in Baby Jesus' crib. then they do light saber battles with the Shepard's crooks. the Shepard wore the sheep as a hat, then they threw Jesus out of his crib, then one kid hid behind the backgrounds and started jumping out and yelling while we were saying our lines "WHAT'RE YOU ALL LOOKING AT ME FOR??!" Oh I dunno, just looking at an ass and I don't mean the one in the stable. haha I've decided that the Angel of the lord (me) needs to take the Shepard's crook and get it around that king's neck and just drag him to baby Jesus....these kids are my cousins...sometimes I wish they weren't and they make me glad I'm not Pregnant.

EVERYONE is either a cat or a wolf, I'm more unique than that. I knew I'd be something with hooves for awhile. I was toying with the idea of deer and unicorns, but meh. Just a horse is fine. And it's not a full horse. 70% horse, 30%... cat? Lion? Something with paws that purrs. lol And the ears are horse ears, but they're proportioned like a cat, so they're bigger than normal horse ears. And the tail is flexible and long like a cat but the fur is horse tail hair.

Anywho, I love this guy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6_YwmBYGdI
Ozone is one o the most popular Furries out there. And I know him personally - His bear-hugs will kill you I thought he broke a rib the other day! Ouch!

I'm working on coloring that picture. Showed it to Garth and he approves. lol
Yeah, the fur suits are too... dumpy. Too loose and unnaturally baggy and the heads are huge and cartoony, and the art of mime must be employed. I'd probably never own one, but if I could get the right tight-fitting clothing, plus a trip to Jo Anne Fabrics... NOPE! Too early to be thinking about it. Not at that stage yet. lol

I love my family but they are SO obnoxious. My aunts on my Dad's side. oh my dear lord. we had a family get together the day after Christmas and the eldest held it at her house. she was a terrible host. she kept running around bitching at her 40 year old son for not doing this or not doing that, and every time the phone rang she just happened to walk out of the room. and wanted us to answer it every time and when we tried to give it to her for her to talk to the person whom was calling her she wouldn't hardly take it.
not to mention her 40 year old son was eating out of the serving dishes when we finally had dinner. -__-
I like my Mom's adopted Sisters on her side, they aren't really her sisters but she's known them since High school and they are a lot more interesting. but I guess it goes to show that the people who you are related to are going to be a giant pain in the ass and the people you aren't related to won't be. not as much at least.

The end of a shit year, and I can't even relax. People won't stop bitching and raging at me untill i'm in the same room as them because "They want a family night!" Yeah, this is after they spend a week treating me like shit and constantly getting on me case! Like I want to spend any fucking time with you?! And the arsehole is here too! Annoying the hell out of me, jabbing me, whacking me, making retarded, racist, sexist, offensive comments and jokes all the time. The asrehole seems to think it's ok to pick his nose and wipe it on the sofa/wall/anything near him - HE'S 20! That is disgusting! He grabs stuff from serving plates, packes and boxes, takes a bite and then drops it back in! EEEEEEEWWWW!!!! Oh, and he won't use a plate, or chew/talk with his moth shut and leans over the serving plates, packes and boxes and drops chewed up food over it *vomits* And drinking out of the bottle/carton?! With a mouth full of food?!
Anyway, so I join them in the same room, and straight away they start giving me shit again! And that arsehole keeps having a hissy-fit becaue they won't use his fucking kinect shit on x-box, and wnt to use the dance games on the Wii - so what does he do? Takes all the leads to the Wii out, plugs his shit in, and starts acting like a baby when they try to move it - he's even started throwing the sensor off the mantle while they're playing! Do they yell at him? No, they're too busy picking fights with me every few minutes!
Yeah, have a fucking crappy new year to them too. Arseholes!

At that point, you leave. If it was me, I'd either lock myself in my bedroom, or if it's not my house, I'd walk home. (remember, I come from a small town. I know how to get home from anywhere that's not across the highway)
Oh, and thank you for recommending your friend to me on that furry art site. He/She/It is very nice.

Yeah, I did leave in the end. Got sick of it all, so a grabbed a few bottles of booze and snuck off.
You're welcome Ozone is a guy lol! He's well known and really popular, so if he adds you and puts out a good word, other people will have a nosey too. Great way to get you started off ;D

MY Sister gets home from a weekend long trip and she decides to yell at me about Ice cream, that I should of saved her some of this limited edition flavor. but I didn't because she refused to eat it before she went off, every opportunity she had she wouldn't eat it. so she mumbles and bitches after I tell it's gone finally I just put on my big girl pants and say "Look, You had every opportunity to eat the fucking ice cream, you wouldn't eat the fucking ice cream so now it's gone, so stop bitching about the fucking ice cream!"
she went straight to bed without another word.
If you're going to come home and bitch about something, let it be something better than not having a scoop of ice cream for Jesus Christ sake.
