I was thinking we start planning the invasion(s) after the holiday, to give Fishy and her family a chance to get settled back in, and for the routine at the facility to establish itself, so we don't upset too many apple carts coming in to see her. But OMGYAY for having an in-house connection, Mozy!
Anything purple is mine. Anything else can be dyed or painted.
JULY 1st is her Birthday!

I got a postcard from Fishy today, dated and postmarked just before she left Austria!
And it may just be because I'm a twisted individual, but I think it's a fabulous sign that she's requested a copy of John Callahan's Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot.

Two Horses
Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it.
From a distance, each looks like every other horse.
But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing.
Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind.
His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him.
This alone is amazing.
If nearby and listening, you will hear the sound of a bell.
Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field.
Attached to her halter is a small bell.
It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.
As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see how she is always checking on him, and that he will listen for her bell and then slowly walk to here she is, trusting that she will not lead him astray. When she returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, she stops occasionally and looks back, making sure her friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.
Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges. He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need.
Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing bell of those who God places in our lives. Other times we are the guide horse, helping others see.
Good friends are like this.
You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.
Please listen for my bell and I'll listen for yours.

Do or Dog time for Fishy (from the support blog http://chukkasupport.blogspot.com/ ):
Work Party this Saturday and Sunday, July 14 & 15 starting at 10:00 a.m. We'll need to pack stuff in boxes, move furniture, maybe help with the ramp -- everything we can to make it safe and accessible for Crypto. Beer and pizza!
If you are interested, contact me for the address. You can send me an email here, or contact me on Tribes as Eliza.
The house is located on the Berkeley/Oakland border, near Claremont and College. The closest BART station is Rockridge.
Let other people know!

We have reserved a spot in the Scale:Burners camp for the Cryptofishist Tank. So if you are making one in 1:87 scale, you're more than welcome to put it into the model.The CO wrote:Well, I already collect green plastic army men and assorted small military models, so getting one is not difficult. Just got to paint it when it shows up...

That is fucking sensational. Put her in the middle of a massive orgy, at 1:87 scale, of course.
