I am! I've been planning on going for months! And, I have the nice short ride on the max to get there... Seeing as I live 2 miles away.

As much as I would like to go, I have no extra cash as rent has me by the Cajones this month. Sad too, cause I am one max stop away, not that my car could not make a 1\2 mile trip.

Lucky dude... I would jump for a boehemi sling or two, I like to start small with mine... But, I am moving in a couple of weeks so I am not allowed to get any more pets until I am settled in the new place. And, I'm supposed to be saving for a car-ishness automaton driving machine thingy.There was a small display right next to Alex and tarantulas.com..........

I did get a Nhandu chromatus, Citharischius crawshayi, Holothele incei, and a Haplopelma schmidti (golden color phase). They are all slings, ranging from ultra-tiny to about the size of a quarter - sized in the order listed smallest to biggest. Mike (IHeartMantids) bought them for me. He also got me two sundews and himself a (hopefully) gravid Heterometrus sp.
