When Boredom Strikes...Good-bye means Hello

So, after having gotten rid of all but maybe ten of the baby frogs, we, well mainly Kash.. was really upset. I guess I'm more used to this? I don't know.. but he was upset that we had had to get rid of them, but like he posted.. we needed to due to the fact we just COULDN'T handle that many.

Even though we wanted to. So, that was pretty sad. Said our good byes and what not. Then today we went outside with Pa and I was walking down the steps and I saw something hop.. just next to the bottom step. I thought 'hmm..' and low and behold it was a toad! Though, of course not one of ours, as he is much bigger, but still a baby yet. Kash thinks it's a girl, I, really wouldn't know either way.

However, we picked him up and Kash immediately said "I wanna keep him, he shall be mine. Okay little froggy, you are mine. Now what shall I name you..hmm..." Okay, maybe not that last part, but I could tell he was thinking it. :P I mentioned the others.. and that we just have the one tank free, well it wasn't so free at the time, since it had a few of the baby frogs in it still.

We decided to get rid of them, since they weren't doing too well anyways.. and were just kind of dying off. Felt bad for the babies, tbh. They just didn't want to eat the buggies we brought for them. :/ So, we took the other froggies outta the tank and let them go where the other frogs were happily hopping around out front. Yes, they are still there. Well, some of them.

I cleaned the tank up while Kash did that, and then fixed the tank back up real quick for this new older, yet still young toad. It's not really a frog, huh, lol. Oh well. Anyway, did that, got him settled.. Kash took a pic.. yada yada. Now onto the first part of my title! Are you ready?!?!? Oh well if you aren't, because I'mma get to splaining anyways! DUN DUN DUN!



We were bored... and didn't feel like finishing up with our blog crap.. because yes, as you can see, it's very different! And he (Kash) needed to use the nebulizer, since his asthma was acting up. Turned the thing on, he did it.. and not really sure why, but when he was done, I decided to put the tube in my mouth, with it still turned on! OMG, did you know how much fun that is?!

We laughed so hard, playing with it, taking turns back and forth, seeing what kind of sounds we could make.. I mooed once like a cow, Kash tried to quack. It didn't turn out as well as he'd liked, but eh. I knew what he was doing. I even managed to say 'I love you' with this cool vibrating sound resonating from my mouth, lol. got some of it on vid for you all! Yay! :P



Other than all that, not much is going on. Kash got his second Cybunny, I opted not to get one. Instead, I morphed a pet into a Koi, and I have a Kiko Trans ready for the first.. Saving up for Li's Krawk.. since we were able to get the draik. Woot. I want a Maraquan Draik, but eh. The draik alone, is worth over 10mil, the maraquan PB is like 4mil. Crazy!

Trying to turn Lucky into a Lutari. So far, no luck. He's a brown moehog though, cuz I morphed him for the avvie, lol. So now, I have two moehogs. >.< Ugh. Yuck. Oh well. Lol. I guess this is all for now.

Peace peeps, and much love.

Total Exposé

So, Kash and I were extremely bored... and we had finished cleaning the hammie and mice cages, and giving them a bath.. along with cleaning out the bathroom closet, finally. Since it was full of his late grandmothers things, and a bunch of other peoples things we don't even know the owners to.. but yeah. We found a huge stash of make up....

Any guess where this is going? Ha. So once we were finished doing everything else we had to do, I opted to dress in drag and let Kash put some make up on me... it didn't turn out great, but eh. I think he had more fun putting it on me, and seeing me like that, than I did just sitting there, letting the shit cake my face.



Other than that... err wow. Kash just saw the pic and bust out laughing AGAIN. Last time I do that, lol. Anyway, other than that, we just finished re-arranging our room. Moved everything around, the whole fung shwea, how ever the hell it's spelt, I really don't care. Most of the taddies are frogs now, or froglets.

Mammoth is still huge, but he's beginning to grow his feet finally. He's gonna be a handsome bugger when he's grown. Lestat ate a tadpole... don't ask, I don't feel like explaining how it happened. I'm ready to let go of most of the frogs, but poor Kash has gotten attached to all 50+ of them! Crazy.

Not that he got attached, but just that there really are so many of them. I had no idea there were that many, when they were all taddies and swimming around. Now that they are hopping and sticking to the tank sides, and sitting atop all the plants..its like 'whoa'.

Trying to make as much money as possible on Neo, to help 'Kash' save up for a Krawk, also, a spotted paint brush. On top of saving up for the lost desert paint brush for Akori and Ibenre, myself. Cybunny day is in a couple days, we are both going to try and get one, or two, for myself. I can't decide if I should get one, or two.

'Kash' wants a second cybunny. Second, because his first is actually a maraquan cybunny, and they despite being cybunnies, don't look like cybunnies. Yes, my life has gotten so dull that I'm actually blogging about Neopets. But you know what, who cares. I like the site damn it. It's fun.

Gives us something to do on days that are boring and hot, when being outside is just not an option. Rawr.

As promised..

Got some great photos of the froglets, toadlets, baby frogs, baby toads, tadpoles, and fish. Took video and everything. :) I hope you all enjoy. We did some more research, upon the lady next door telling us that Mammoth is NOT a bullfrog. She told us he is a speckled, but we researched those and, um.. no. He's not. So the search continued and we found him! He is (we believe) a southern leopard frog. We also believe some of the taddies are western and or southern chorus frogs.

The new home for the frogs/toads/froglets/toadlets.

We aren't even sure if our toads are toads anymore, as they have a green hint to them, once they become actual baby frog/toads. Once they lose their tails completely, they start to get a green tint, but dark green tint to their skin, with small dots patterened along their back. They are real cute. Kash things we accidently gave our tree frogs to the lady next door, or at least, his tree frog. I hope not. I'm hoping he's just hiding under the tree stump in the tank. :/


Watching you... (toad? blends in with the rock, no tail.)


Stop staring please... (toad? still has partial tail.)

I seez euu... (grey tree frog/hybrid? no tail.)


See, I kanz climb... (same frog as above.)

We're actually really thankful for the neighbor for just giving us that tank. It's helped ease our mind tremendously. She's also taken about 30 of our frogs/froglets/tadpoles (toadies likewise) off of our hands. She thinks they are adorable, and since she has three bullfrogs, plus firebelly toads, and loads of koi and turtles, not to mention the millions of fish and tanks... she was glad to have some more additions to her collection. Lol. She fell in love with them the moment we brought them over for her to see. :)


King of the hill, or in this case...rock.

For once, we actually got some decent pics of the goldfish and betta. I'm really happy. I just wish we had gotten some good pics of Rhett before he passed. Maybe when we get the next Rhett, we'll be able to get some pics of him. It's sad he passed, but I guess it was just meant to be. I effing hate Petsmart now, because it was their fault he died. He was sick when we got him, but we just couldn't take him back. They'd just let him die if we had. And we at least wanted to try and save his life.



Dhani: Silver with orange stripe/spots.
Emile: Pale pink with orange underbelly.


Lestat: Blue with aqua highlights.

Hopefully we can heal Lestat back to health. He's been battling a really bad case of fin rot. Nothing seems to work thus far. We are just going to have to keep changing the water regularly, and pray that it heals and new fins start to grow back. Now, on to the new tank addition. It came with rocks, and a deco rock/plant thing. Plus its own filter and everything. I couldn't be more thankful, honestly. I love it. It's perfect.


Front view, full shot of the tank with minnows and taddies.


Front view, close up of the minnows, enjoying the filter...don't ask..they're obsessed.


Last but not least, the side view of the new tank. That really big taddie, is Mammoth.

Here you guys go, it's the vids. Enjoy!

Froggy land!


Taddies and Minnows

Until next time, be good!

Oh, and I absolutely LOVE how each of our tanks is uniquely awesome.

Headache

Been waking up with massive tension head aches. Not fun, nope. But, I have some medicine for it, so hopefully it'll work. Since tylenol just doesn't seem to cut it. :/

We went next door and talked to the woman who has lots of frogs, and turtles, etc, and she asked to have some of our taddies and froggies. In exchange, she gave us a 5gal I believe tank and filter, with hood. It also had rocks and a nice deco rock thing. We drained the ten gal, and washed, it. Boy was it dirty, lol.

But that's cuz we've been putting the creek water in it, since we didn't have any dechlorinator. It worked suffice. The minnows didn't mind the water, probably enjoyed it a lot better than the crappy tap water. We have dechlorinator now though, which I'm hoping will help Lestat some.

We put both the small filters in with the goldfish and the betta (Emile, Dhani and Lestat) since the frogs don't need a filter. They have just a small pool of water, and the rest is rocks and things for them to chill on til they are big enough to be released. We will be taking pictures probably tomorrow, since today was a buy one.

What with cleaning all the tanks, running to Wally World, and then building the tanks, redecorating, and filling them. We're just now sitting down to eat. (Chinese, yum) and we're just gonna chill the rest of the night ourselves. Took my excedrin, drinking me some D.P. and getting back on Neo, to earn me some NP. Rawrs, bitches.

Hoppers Galore

Two days ago, we noticed that two of our grey tree frogs have their front legs too! Oy vey. Lol. We had to drain over half the water from the tank, so the frogs that will all soon have their front legs will have a place to sit, above the water. And soon after that, the toads will follow suit, seeing as how they are about 5 days behind the others. Give or take a few days per each actual tadpole.


Note: these are not the same frog, it is one of each of our frogs that have their legs.

We decided to put the ones we wanted, or were considering, in our fish bowl, so we could tell them apart. This includes the two that have their front legs already. One of those that we also chose, has his front legs ALMOST out. From what we can tell, the ones in the tank aren't quite there, but getting there. :) They LOVE the algae discs that we have for placos. They attack the damn things the moment we put one in.



We're beginning to wonder how these guys are gonna survive in the wild, because there is NO way we can keep that many frogs and toads.

Playing House

So apparently, little girls aren't the only ones out there that like to play house...


Here is Mnoti, obviously playing the mommy...


Here is Rasui, playing the baby taking a baff...


And Shemeit, playing the daddy...



All this happened, while this was going on outside.. tornado after tornado siren kept blaring. We had no net. Lol. Good thing we have mice to keep us entertained, huh?

-Khai

Mammoth...yes, that's what we decided to call him.

I don't think I blogged about this yet, so here I will try. About a week ago, Kash and I were doing our usual thing, walking the woods, taking in the scenery, when we came across a BUNCH of tadpoles, swimming in a nasty marsh, that was drying up and being consumed by nasty pollutants. Mainly, anti-freeze by the looks of it. So, we took it upon ourselves to save the day.

Kash and Khai, to the rescue dodoodeedooo! Anyway, we rushed home, and grabbed our nets, along with a couple of buckets and fresh creek water, then back to the marsh we trotted. First, we grabbed 21 total, because we did count once we got home. Then we emptied the ten gal tank Lestat was solely living in by this time, since Rhett had passed a couple weeks back, and put him into Emi and Dha's tank.

He didn't like that too much, but oh well. He's lived with it, and he's pretty much fine by now. Though, we still think he's gonna die, but more on that later...maybe. Anyway, so we cleaned the tank and put creek water in it, fresh from the flowing abundance down behind our house, and dumped the taddies in. They were so tinies, lol. One of the taddies decided to jump outta the net and into Emile's mouth though.

Leaving us with just 20 taddies. Some were blackish, and some were brownish. All tiny, though we had one that was a little larger than the others, but by looks, he was just 'bigger'. Ha! Moving on; so, these things apparently grow faster! in warmer water, lmao. They were in water that was on average of 55-65 degrees, and by bringing them in, they were soon in water from 70-75 degrees average.

Holy crap did these guys decide they wanted to be frogs sooner than the rest. Two days after we got those ones, we went back to get as many more taddies as we could, because we felt bad since the water was so nasty. We had to wait a day, since it stormed in between days, however, it didn't rain much, to help clean their living water down there. Not to mention, the next couple of days the highs were in the low 40's.

We now have probably 50 taddies, and at first we thought we had just two species. American Toads, and Grey Tree Frog Hybrids. This was cool, because we love the little tree frogs and we miss our Nimmo. :( We'll be more prepared when these guys are land dwellers. Well, sort of. We are definitely NOT keeping all 50. We decided on keeping 2-3 grey tree frogs, hopefully one male, one female, maybe a second male and or female.

One toad, because we want one, lol, since we'd be raising it from taddie stage. The tree frogs wont get more than 2.5 inches max, but the toad we're looking at 2.5 min to 4 inches. O.O That's kinda big, lol. BUTTT, not as big as Mammoth! About two nights ago, we noticed that not only were the taddies growing in size, but most of the tree frogs had their back legs fully grown and detached from their tails, but we had a strange looking tree frog taddie, that was much larger than the rest, and had no hind legs!

We thought this was odd, and each day he grew to be very different in look to the other tree frog taddies, and definitely much different to the toads, which are a solid black color, the tree frogs are a brownish color. We decided we most definitely had a third species of taddie in our midst, and immediately dubbed him Mammoth. Upon researching the net, we've come to learn that our little, or rather big mammoth is nothing less than a bull frog. O.O OMG, those things get to be 8 inches!

Lol. We are definitely keeping him and actually really excited to have him. We were disappointed at first when we saw we didn't have any in the midst. But I guess it just took him some growing time for us to see he wasn't like the rest. Which, you know what? It was worth the wait. According to our findings, he could be a taddie for up to an entire year. Much longer than all the rest, which is just a matter of weeks.



Sorry the lighting is off, but we did the best we could to show everyone our new addictions to the house hold. Be expecting another post soon from me, to show you the fun time we had with the mice, during a not so fun time, worrying about whether or not the tornado was going to hit us, just yesterday during the storms. For us who are pretty much always on the computer, having no net due to the storms, was a intersting day, with how we found ways to entertain ourselves.

Love you all, and hope you are all doing well.

The. Wife.

So, now she's practically begging me to send her the laptop. Fuck, no. I am so tired of her shit. I am two seconds from just telling her to fuck off.

I promised her, if she didn't fucking quit lying, I don't care if it's a lie about not having to go pee, when she does, a lie is a lie, her and I would be through.

How many lies, has she told, since then? I can't even begin to count, it's been that many. And not just little ones either. Back and forth. I am fucking sick of it.

I am tired of her whining. I am tired of her complaining. She made her fucking bed, now she has to lay in it.

Left me to fend for myself, and some how make it on 70 dollars a week, with a 650 a month rent, plus utilities, food, not just for myself, oh no. Her fucking pets too.

Said she was leaving, to go make money working for her mother in MI. Where the fuck is the money? I know she has some, but me? Nope.

We all know what happened to me. And yet, she wants me to send the laptop? Fuck that shit, mine would still be working if when she didn't have one, she wasn't HOGGING mine, and then leaving it out, so the room mates fucking cat could chew through the cord.

Hell no she isn't getting her laptop back. Fuck that shit. All the stuff I lost, because of her?! All that stuff in the storage, of which, only happened to not get paid, because of.......her lies. Yes, her lies.

It's okay.. I'm okay.. I'm here. Fuck this shit. Fuck the bitch.

Wow, Lestat much?

-Khai

Gah damnit..

this ones gonna be short.

Fucking. Carrot.

Now, I'm going to be in some major pain.

Damn tooth.
