I'm determined to make an entry this month, now I have some cat-sitting lined up. But how do I make a super sweet siamese fuzzball look spooky? I'm loving Nerwign's fattest guinea pig. I've seen that facial expression before on my own guinea pigs. It's when they know they've eaten too much, but have to keep eating, because they're guinea pigs. They can't stop, food consumes their every thought, and every sense is poised to detect more food. Or it might just be the slightly confused expression they always have, in every situation. It's hard to tell.

I was at a friends Halloween party last weekend and brought my 11 foot burmese python Ditty. She was getting her picture taken with a lot of people but I thought this was the scariest one. You can call it Ditty and Alice.

Entry 2 - Learning I don't know how to draw skeletons. (PS the hard part wasn't drawing, it was washing the guinea pig after, who was not at all pleased with this poo poo.) Entry 3 - Spooky the guinea pig dressed up like a vampire this year.
