Fantasy Fest 2011

*sigh*

Since I posted the nekkid painted photos a year ago, my blog has gotten hundreds of hits every month from people looking for (duh) pictures of nekkid women, mostly.  I have been a little irritated by that, since this is supposed to be a blog about knitting and reading and family and the Keys and life, but I've posted very few of those since we moved to Our Place in the Keys.  I guess that I did most of my best "work" while I was *at* work......

So, since there's so much demand for nekkid photos all over the freaking world (I'm lookin' at you, Iraq), later today I'll add the photos from this year's Fantasy Fest, Key West, Florida.  Right now, I want to go outside and look at my garden and see if I can catch Katie and force her to submit to wearing her Halloween costume.

Happy Halloween--oh, and 17 days :)

21 days.......

We missed our summer monsoons and had all of the season's rain in 5 days last week.  Today we called Monroe County Mosquito Control and asked them to bring the napalm.  We've got huge ANGRY mosquitoes.  No, wait; they're not ANGRY; they're totally PISSED OFF and we're gonna pay for it.

The MC lady was here within half an hour and found the likely source:  the swampy jungle lot behind ours.  She said that she'd actually forgotten about it; the people who recently rented the house nearby threw their yard cuttings into the jungle and closed off the path she'd made to get in and inspect.  She's going to spend time this winter (!!!  we need to get rid of the m'effers NOW!) cutting new paths into the lot (which is owned by the county; I can't imagine why no one has bought it /sarcasm) so it'll be easier to spray in there.  We're going to throw away our huge pot of bromeliads since water naturally collects in them and they're a prime breeding ground for these m'effers.  And these aren't just your run-of-the-mill m'effers, they're the REALLY ANGRY aggressive ones that carry dengue fever.

So while the weather is just about perfect these days, we can't go outside without coming back inside with huge red welts all over us.  I took two doses of Benadryl today; good thing I'm used to it or I'd have slept all day.  MC lady said that we had 20 inches of rain in those 5 days.

Tomorrow is the body painting contest in Key West at Fantasy Fest, so if it doesn't rain (thank God Rina is turning away from us) we'll go into town to watch the festivities.  And take photos.  I'm still getting hundreds of hits each month from people looking at last year's nekkididity.

Did I mention that these skeeters are tough little m'effers?  Yeah, thought so.

Whoa--26 days!!!

You know I don't feel this way, but I do think it's funny :)

Stop downloading pirated books!

I am beyond irritated.  A couple of weeks ago I found a website devoted to sharing pirated ebooks, and Tina Reber's Love Unscripted was available there.  She immediately contacted the site and the person sharing and demanded that her book be removed at once.

Apparently the webmaster believes that it's okay to share books that haven't been paid for.  It doesn't matter that the author has spent countless hours writing the book.

Tonight I found another site that has shared almost 20,000 illegal downloads of Tina's book.  Okay, it's free.  But do you know what you're doing?  You are STEALING from her.

Stop it!!!  THERE ARE NO FREE LEGAL DOWNLOADS.  MAN UP AND BUY THE BOOK.
