Okay, I really hope all those links worked!

So, I'm still in the quest for a laptop, but things are looking up! My grandma got me some tack supplies for my birthday and I've already made a jumping set and a Dressage set. So, yeah, uh, I'm 15!!! Yay! We didn't really have a party, but we went up to see my cousin and that was lots of fun! So, doing pretty good!

Hey campers! Uh, well, I'm still alive!!!! Anyway, I thought that it might be time for a new journal, sooooo, here it is!

I've been getting really excited about Model Horse Live showing. There's a show comming up in march. The Nebraska Horse Expo is going to hold a live show, annnnd, if I can cinvince my parents to take me, I'll be there! Is anyone else going? I'm pretty sure that most of you (My Amazing friends!) don't live in Nebraska, but thought I'd ask. Aside from being really excited, I'm also kinda scared. I've never been to a live show before, and I'm afraid that my models will like totally lose or I'll mess up and make somebody mad...Anyway, I'll be taking my Fantasy Armor Set (I added a few more details to make it better) along with a few other models....So, yeah. Any tips? I still don't have a laptop, but, if God wants me to have a laptop, then nothing in this world can stop me from getting one, if he doesn't, then no ammount of crying on my part will make any diffrence. Although crying my heart out does invoke great sympathy, and cookies...

As for the person who was stealing my photos for YouTube, I'm pretty sure she/he took them all down, but if you do see ANY of my photos on other sites, please tell me cause they're probably stolen! Arg! The horror!!!

As for Model Horse Photos, I've got an idea for a new Holloween photo. I'm stil having a few problems with getting some tiny leaves for my models, but I'm hopeful. Oooooh annnnddd, October 31st is my birthday! *wink, wink, nudge, nudge* I'll be 15 yaaaaayyyy!!! I can get my learner's permit to drive the family minivan! Yay me! On another note, I finally perfected my englisg saddle pattern and ordered a bunch of leather (Grandma's birthday gift to me, bless her kind soul!) but, to my horror, most of it is out of stock! So, I'm back to looking for more places where I can buy leather.

So, thanks for sticking with me guys!

Rock On!!!!!

WEll, my life has reached an ALL TIME LOW. Just a few days ago, my MP3 player was KIA (Oooohh, the horror!) so now I have no music. Because I'm broke, I can't buy a new one...So, now I'm computer-less and music-less. Ooooohhhh whhhhyyy!?

Also, it's come to my attention (Thank you ) that some poeple have been stealing my photos to make videos for YouTube. They didn't even ask me or freaking give me credit! They didn't make those photos, I did! They didn't slave over a piece of leather for three days to make a saddle, they didn't go out when it was three below, lay in the freaking snow with a camera and a model horse and take photos! They didn't go out when it's 110 in the summer, walk a mile over hills and rough dry ground with a very heavy backpack full of model horses, or go out when it's raining cats and dogs, walk a mile and lay in the mud for thirty minutes!!! I'm sorry, but I'm really pissed! I contacted the person who stole my art (she used them in three videos) and demanded that she take them down. She removed the three, but just found another! ARG!!! What sucks the most, is that if people are stealing them to make videos, then what else are they using them for? The thought that someone might be using one of MY PHOTOS for photo showing makes me sick! So, I don't know what to do... I hate "water marks" but I don't know if there's any other way to stop this. Those photos are copyrighted to me, how can people have the nurve to steal them?

Anyway, thanks to my friends who I KNOW would never steal from me. Thanks to for letting me know, you rock girl! Also, if you see any of my photos on any other sites, they're probably stolen, please, pleas tell me.

Thanks!

Hey guys! (Yes! I'm in a better mood!) As you all know, my computer is dead and I've been forced to endure the horrors of the library! Ahhhh!! Well after some weeping and crying and, um, crying I came up with a plan!!! I'm selling some of my tack to raise money for a laptop! So, now's your chance to own a beautiful piece of tack made by the amazing CatWink? (Do I sound like a used car salesman? Good.) Sooooo, you can get some nice stuff for your Breyer horses and help me out too! So, yeah! I'll be posting some photos of them here on dA shortly!

Right now I'm selling a bridle with braided reins:

I'm selling all of em on eBay. You don't have to bid if you don't want to, I'd be very happy if ya just checked em out and made the pretty view counter go up! Those three are all I have up for now, but, if I can get into Hobby Lobby, I'll see if I can get some more leather to make an english saddle and some more halters and bridles!

Thank you all for sticking with me this long! You guys are great!!! Now! Now is the time to take up arms and join the fight to resserect CatWink!!! *grabs the foam sword and stands upon a table* Fight! Fight now! We shall have victory-er, a laptop!!! *foam table collapses and Sarah goes falling down to nail the fish tank, taking a wall painting with her. *bloody hand sticks up holding broken foam sword* I'm okay!!!!

Thanks guys!

Hey! Um, friends? Okay, might as well say it, I feel like I’ve abandoned you! Not my fault though. Read on dear followers!

Warning!

This is the start of a major rant about the horrors of my life, if you don’t want to read it, it’s okay with me! Now! Have a cookie!!!

Bessy(my computer) is alive. Now before you get all jumpy, I have to tell you that there is pretty much no way I can get internet out here!!! They discontinued our dialup about three months ago and we’re too far out to get high speed so I am completely screwed. Yup, screwed! Now, on to the more woes of my life. Bessy was alive, yes, was. She’s dead again, actually, she died about an hour ago when I was writing an SGA fanfic. Oooooh, woe is me! So not only did I lose the work on my fic, but I lost Bessy too. But, after she died the first time, I’ve gotten quite backup happy, so nothing was lost except for a few SGA screenshots. Speaking of Stargate Atlantis, I just finished watching the last of the fifth season (got the boxset at Wallmart) and now am crying in my fruit loops. The greatest show ever made, killed for 90210 In Space, AKA Stargate Universe. *spits on universe’s name*. Oooooh, and yes, I must tell you about the other wonders of my now dead desktop. The screen is blue, well not blue blue, just blue tinted so I have no idea what any colors are at all, uh, the front USB port is dead so I have to get down on my hands and knees and go digging for a rear port, Oh! And recently, my SD card port died too! So I can’t even look at my horse photos!!
Ohhhhhh! Woe is me!! Also, aside from the Motherboard frying, I think the video card was going too! You see, I don’t play many computer games, in fact the only one I have on my hard drive aside from Black Hawk Down (good game) is The Sims2. And you guessed it! I can’t even play that either because the damn thing dies after about ten minutes! Arg!!! It can’t even handle my screen saver which is a replica of the Atlantis mainframe screen!!! And it was so cool!!!! So here I sit, one window at the petition to save Atlantis and the other on dA, writing this. There’s an old guy who keeps farting to my left and a teenaged girl who just CANT put down her cellphone to my right. I hate the library…I can’t even read my SGA fanfics because their content filter blocks Fanfiction.net!!!! I found the laptop that I want, but it’s 500 bucks, so don’t expect that to happen anytime soon, considering the fact that I don’t have a job. I know my parents would get me one if they could, but at the time, shelling out 500 to get me a computer is out of the question. Another woe of this month, is that the Stargate Atlantis book that I ordered, Brimstone, was supposed to come out on july 3rd, but it’s been bumped ahead to January 6th! January! Of next year!!! So yeah, welcome to my life!!!Whhhhhhhyyyyyyyy!?!?!


Okay, end of rant. If you’ve stuck with it this long, than I have new found respect for you.

Okay, um, well I guess my life isn’t as bad as it could be…I finally got my own e-mail account! Yay me!! Catwink42@yahoo.com I also joined a few SGA fansites and am still photographing me model horses! I’m in the process of sewing a camouflage skirt to wear with my combat boots…Yes, I’m strange…I also love P-90s and M-60! Huzzah for machineguns! I’m working on my first really long Stargate Atlantis fanfic. I’ve got around thirty thousand words down so far, so, maybe if I do in fact finish it, I’ll post it. And right now I have about 300 messages to answer. I’ll do my best to answer as many ass I can, but I’ve only got about thirty minutes left before I get kicked off… I also wanted to thank you guys for not giving up on me, even though I am now reduced to a internet -less puddle of tears…You guys are awesome!!!:headbang; I just wanted you to know that every comment and fave means a lot to me. *pats heart* Thanks…Yeah…I need a cookie. *walks off in search of cookie* *looks back at the kid that’s eyeing my computer* Noooooo!!!! You shall not have it!!!
