Its a Xidax computer. Its a relatively new start up computer company that builds computers out of Utah. I had a friend get one from them a month back and love their computer. They do financing if qualify and stuff. They offer from the ground up builds or you can buy a "used" build and upgrade it how you want. Thats the route I went. However, based on the financing they approved me for if I had wanted could have had a brand new one built. My system is $1200. Comes with monitor, mouse, keyboard and gamers headset. I hope it is awesome. If it is I will let you know and maybe you can go thru them. All the reviews I read on them were excellent too. People seem to like their stuff. :) PLUS they keep you up to date as they are building it. You get email telling you they started. Then when done they tell you they are testing it and checking to make sure it stands up to things (ie...you didnt get a processor that runs hotter then the fan system etc) Then they tell you it shipped out and to watch UPS for delivery cus someone 21 or older must be home to get it.
I need to start Lumi shopping on here. I have to go thru friends list and see too. Last year I gifted almost 70 people I think. WAY to many. OHHH I think I kept link to those who gifted me (at least thru tree...I can kinda use that as a reference too)

Sounds like a really reliable company, I like that they keep you updated as they're building. Definitely let me know what you think when you get the computer, I'm very curious. I don't think I'd have an issue qualifying for financing either so that would be nice also.

I'm definitely gifting about 6 people that I can think of, good friends get good stuff this year since I haven't given anything in two years. I've gifted small/medium things to most people so far and I got 1 big thing for you, and 1 other person gets a big thing. Then after friends are treated nicely, I'm gonna gift some things to other LRVT/ASP members cause I can't forget about them!

I have something for you in my vault that I bought awhile back to gift. And I think maybe Witchy too. BUT with her it is so hard to know if she got it or not cus I don't see it on her WL. SO I may just change mind on it and find her something else. I hate looking thru WLs. They drive me bonkers. I find more things for me to add to mine. And some people's WL are horribly expensive and hard to find items. Last year I did good gifts for those close and then went down from there. I think 1mil sp was lowest I spent on people tho that weren't super close with. I was thinking of getting a small cw commissioned for close friends as an exclusive, but time got tight on me. :( Im also going to try not to do as many CWs this upcoming year. That is alot of money spent. I have batches of recolors coming but nothing new...that I can think of.

Thanks! I was trying to have like 5,000 birds on the HA, but it just looked like a the Birds-style murder in progress.

I suck at the snowball achievement. Never tried much either. We should throw a bunch at Elethia because she's on vacation and won't be here to see her HA all messed up LOL

It must be really depressing to just...like..find dead kittens like that. I'd totally have a meltdown if that happened to me.

If you want a discounted price to get any fixed: https://www.friendsofanimals.org/spay_neuter_certificate_information

The main thing is finding a vet that accepts them.

I don't like looking through WLs either, but I do it. I always try to WL gift because I'm afraid if I gift someone something that's not on the list, they either already have it or won't like it, especially when it comes to gifting CWs. Now fortunately I was able to find one for you and then there's miss Elethia who I haven't looked at yet (but I wouldn't be surprised if she already has every CW in existence). And if she does I'll probably get her a CSC gift card which I've done before but hopefully won't need to. And lots of sp things for both of you. I'm mostly spoiling you two, I mean let's get real here.

OMG Miss Elethia is a horror to shop for. She I always leave til the end. I think last year I just threw a CSC card at her and some little random things cus I just gave up.
I havent even looked at my WL lately. I think it is out of control. I did clean it up a few months back but that was just a minor cleaning.

That many birds I may have run from you. That movie still scares the crap out of me.

Yea it was kinda depressing about the kittens. But the worse was the first few cus you know they are dying but you can't do anything but wait. I mean you could be a heartless person I guess and end them, but omg that is horrible. I was just so focused on other things tho that it didn't overly bother me.

Right now I am focused on my dog with cancer. Its a waiting game with him. OH CRAP I forgot to insulin him tonight too. I need to give him a half dose I suppose.

Aww Buddy :( I didn't know he was on insulin too

Yea he was diagnosed diabetic back in April. :( Now the cancer. It just sucks in general for him.

I cleaned my WL a few days ago (sort of). I think I had issues with Elethia in years past too, may have to throw a CSC card at her again. I decided to take a look at Elethias (FREAKIN SCARY) CW WL and there actually is some things on there that I can get her! I saved them for future reference. Good I won't have to get her a CSC card this year. ^_^

Last I looked at her WL her CW wants were like exclusive limited stuff. I was very sad.
I try to clean mine up but never goes well.

The majority of hers are hard to find/private/exclusive stuff, but there's a few obtainable ones in there. Better than none lol.

That is true. She may have gotten better at putting stuff easy to get.

Could be. Fairly confident I looked in years past and was never able to find anything I could actually buy. Used to have same issue with you but I think you once told me you didn't add everything you liked to you WL?

No I dont add everything. I usually kinda hit or miss when I add stuff.

I had considered getting you something that wasn't on your WL but like I said I'm afraid you wouldn't like it and/or already had it. I did find something off your WL and already put it under your tree though (and it's something I'm tempted to add to my WL as well lol).

That is what is dangerous doing WL shopping. You find stuff you end up wanting to add to self. LOL

I know, it's a curse!! But I'll deal with it, I haven't been ass addicted to CW buying as I used to be, I only buy a few for myself here and there, and I try to sell some that I don't use as well.

I fear how many Cws I have. I have been good as of late with buying them tho :)
I should sell some of my least used/never use ones. I have so many I bought cus I needed it for a specific one time HA. :(

You stay on the no buy path.

Thankies for the new thread, luv. Also, Lady , why is it that you and the others think I'm going to punish or scold you for something? I only scold and punish impropriety, shopping addictions (especially for CWs) and vendettas within the Royal Family. If you recall, you and Lady Tea used to have quite the number of Lady Wars. :P Also, DD, Your white as snow outfit is lovely <3

huggles You are so strong, J. I really admire you for your courage, strength and brilliance. Yes, Dad's constant changing of the date was truly exhausting. I know how much he loves Ghana, and I wasn't in a hurry for him to boss me around, but he was still needed here. Not to mention that all three of his daughters are in the States and my sisters need him as well.

So you have CW and NON-CW snow? I think I ought to be tsking at this. I should also tsk at you telling Lord about being able to rule from the throne and spend a ton! Shameful spendings! I think it is high-time we cut down on your spendings of scythes and high heels. :P

Ever my champion, Darling Andrew <3 Perhaps, if NJ allowed tasers, it would be safer for me to get closer to strangers? That way I can shocky them if they try something, and you and DD won't have to bring out the bonesaw.

MD certainly knows how to push buttons. Also, when she is a bit more unwell, she likes to taunt me about it. I remember once, when she went back to talking and laughing to herself and I told her to stop and shut it, she went "Why, are you scared? Are you scared? Scaredy-cat." I'll try the walking away method, love. Perhaps music and typing/writing will also soothe my raging soul.

I think they arrested that man....I hope they did. Even if he didn't mean to harm the baby, even if he was mentally challenged or mentally ill....kidnapping is a serious crime and he could have scalped that poor baby. That mother shouldn't have been a mother, but I'm sure she got a serious glimpse of what COULD happen if she is more concerned with herself than her own child. Honestly....I have too many stories about negligent parents. Even bf does--once, he was waiting at one of the bus stops, and saw a little girl, maybe 4 or younger, going out into the street. He moved quickly to pull her back. If he didn't react in time, she would have been hit by the car that passed at that exact moment. He looked for the baby's mother. Turns out, the mother was on the top floor of an apartment building nearby. What....the....Tartarus. I can't even remember if bf told me whether or not the mother KNEW her kid was outside. How is it that NJ child protective services wanted to take me away from my Dad because he was a single, working parent and yet never sees any of these disgraces to humanity?

I love the art, love! Especially the first and last one, although the second does remind make me think of a cute, three-tailed Kitsune in the winter <3 The first picture--is that a bird of lore, or just completely out of your imagination? It is very cute. Also, the tails on the creatures in the last picture--the design in the middle of the tails, is that more like a dreamcatcher, or stained glass?

Thank you.
My outfit is not anything to do with a CW issue tho. grabs She has been slotting on things...NOT ME! Oh whoops I think I was driving that vehicle that I threw her under. :)
