Well, golly, I haven't been very active around here for a while, have I?
I'm sure that quite a few people have forgotten about me, unwatched me, ect.
But don't feel bad, dA, I haven't been active at lot anywhere. I've mostly been sleeping, caring for my rats, and obsessing over certain movie-musicals. (Happy Birthday, Sweeney Todd! It's been a year, and I still listen to the full soundtrack weekly. I don't think I'll ever get over this one. I hope Repo! will be as imprinted in my mind over time.)
Anyway, I'm finally ready to make a lot of changes in my life, a few of which I've been planning on for a long, long while.
I've finally gotten Eve's ashes back from the Pet Crematory, and that means I'm ready to start the next few steps.
They've put her in a beautiful ceder box, (I hate to use the term 'irony', but ceder IS deadly to rats) and they must have noticed that I had put some rose petals next to her in the container we delivered her in, because they put rose petals inside the ceder box.
Little things like that demonstrate that there are still kind people in the world. They weren't obligated to do that in any way, someone just noticed the petals and decided that it would be a good gesture to put some with her ashes. Just because they
care.
That's right, someone else in the world is capable of having respect for a dead rat.(In case anyone wants to know who the wonderful people who did this are, the establishment is called 'Gateway Pet Cemetery and Crematory' and is located near Redlands, California. Their website:

Also, a few weeks ago, I found that someone posted the full book of 'Recipes for Disaster: An Anarchist Cookbook' online. I won't give a link, because I'm a
Free-Market Anarchist, and think that if you can, you should buy it, and support the authors. (Besides, the site hath no pictures. BLASPHEMY. I LIKE PICTURES. Also, I can't actually buy it yet, because the only place that would have it in the area is where my mom works.
Goodness I am extremely under eighteen.)
If you've never heard of it, search on wikipedia.
So far, it's been a very helpful book.
