Greetings Earthlings, Aliens, and Others~

It was a nice Thanksgiving break last week, and my family ate duck instead of turkey (as usual). (We find turkey rather dry.) Hope you all enjoyed yours.

Tis less than 3 weeks till Christmas break, and I can't wait till it starts snowing so I can try taking some pics of it! (that is, not to mention that there is the possibility of canceling school because of the snow.) Also, my friends and I are going to have a Lord of the Rings extended edition marathon during break. (The 3rd extended edition comes out December 14th. You can see the preview at [link] .)

I truly appreciate all the support that you gave me on my series, "Tales of the Fat Squirrel." It truly enlightens me to know that you found them just as amusing as I did. I have several more pics of the Fat Squirrel, but I probably will not post all of them up.

a dilemna... thoughts appreciated - There are a few of the squirrel pictures that I would want to enter into some competitions outside and in deviant art. (I have not ran across any competitions inside deviant art yet.) Some competitions do not allow pics that have already previously been submitted. Thus, I am torn between sharing them with you now and keeping them for possible later competitions.
