No problem. I can't wait to see what you upload next. ...well, I have to wait... but you know what I mean. :D (Big Grin) I wonder if anyone has a constant schedule for when they upload stuff? (excluding those that do the 365 projects)

SpikedPyro In reply to joerayphoto [2011-06-22 03:08:32 +0000 UTC]

Haha, it's nice to know there's someone who so anxiously awaits my next uploads! My upload schedule is so random. Usually only once every couple weeks, and usually at night/in the evening. But other than that, it's random. I wish I had more time to devote to DeviantArt but...you know...work and all that. =\

I was amazed when I clicked on your site. The feather paintings are just amazing, and I have never seen that done before. And your wood burnings are just amazingly beautiful as well<3

w00t! w00t! w00t! w00t! w00t! your parents are lucky to sell a house at all in this market - much less for $345,000 I think I've fainted. i guess not everyone is out of work No, I disagree!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SpikedPyro In reply to Cmac13 [2009-05-02 18:11:06 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you're right. Which was why I was all for selling it once I heard people were interested. They actually would have been able to make a hefty profit off it. It's a very new (less than 5 year old) townhouse in a hoity-toity community of old people. People are always waiting for houses to go up for sale there. But at the last minute (i.e. 3 days ago), they decided to take it off the market and keep it. What that means for me is that I'm now paying $300 a month to rent it. (Which is better than most crummy apartments, I must say).

But I was truly amazed at all the people who have that kind of money to spend right now... I certainly don't. I can barely pay $300 a month, after all other expenses!
