I keep checking the 10 day forcast and I don't know when I'll be able to get my GBB shipped. It's paid for, so the suggestion some have made about shopping for a T closer to home won't work. Plus, I've really got my heart set on this species. So....I guess I need to be patient. Sheesh--one of the reasons I live in Texas is we barely have any winter! Now we have to have winter weather when I least desire it. I may have to get the seller to send me a pic, just so I can sigh over it.

Name wise, I'm leaning towards Dali or Picasso

I'm in the same boat with my A. versicolors. Not that it's too cold in San Diego{D {D , but that it's too cold where the seller lives. Remember, that in some situations patience isn't only a virtue, it's better than giving yourself an ulcer fretting (or even worse, having an animal die in transit :eek: ). Hope you get yours soon.

Cheers,
Jen

Yeah, it's like waiting for Christmas. If you open your gifts too early you can be disappointed. (BTW Jen - I JUST found the spell check button) ;)

I'm spoiled. It doesn't usually stay cold for too long of a stretch here so when it does I'm miserable. My husband almost got transferred to Ohio once, I said "I'll see ya in the summer - I'll stay here in winter!"

I had to put off shipping out 2 mm purpureas this week. Kinda sucks. I hope it's warmer next week.

Yeah, the only bright spot is we might not have school tomorrow because they're expecting ice & sleet tonight! I sound as bad as the students! :p

If I get a day off, I'll work on my OTHER hobby - scrapbooking.

I hear you there Waldo! Negative wind chills almost make my dogs want to cross their legs and wait a while. LOL.

Name-wise, I like Picasso for a GBB.

I was quite dismayed this morning when the thermometer thingy in my car today said it was 1*F. Yes, one. On top of that, my heater blower has been acting squirrely for the past few weeks, so I went half the ride to work with no heat. :(
It's supposed to warm up here this weekend, it might actually get above 30*! >gasp<

Will this help tide you over or does it make it worse?



Sorry if I made it worse...

We have huge waterfalls that are 100% frozen right now and that happens about once every 15 years! Central and eastern Oregon has been waking up to -11-21 degree weather with a - 25+ windhchill. So we are feeling it here too in the Northwest.

Yeah, I'm leaning towards Picasso too, then if she molts out female - Cassie

If I name it Dali - people will be like Dolly?? What? Doesn't look like a Dolly to me!
