Iristigress

Hi Kaitlyn! I'm Iris, and welcome back to Neopets! I just started playing again myself after a long time away... it has a way of sucking you back in, doesn't it? :D

That's cool that you're working towards the Book Award. I hope you get it. :)

I think my favorite Lost character is Hurley! He's just so sweet, and I love how things end for him. (I won't spoil it if you haven't seen the whole series yet.) I also really like Sayid, Sun, and Sawyer. Sayid kicks some serious butt, Sun is just awesome, and Sawyer goes through a real transformation on the island.

I'm a Pisces... I don't really believe in the daily horoscope predictions in the newspapers, but I do think there is a little something behind the idea that the time of your birth determines at least part of your personality.

Rainbow cupcake?! *nabs it* Mine.

The garland is pretty too.

Thanks for the heads up. <3

I'd rather hear cat stories than some of the other things people find to talk about... I am owned by 2 kitties myself, and I love them. <3

Also, that's awesome that you're studying game programming! My husband is a huge gamer.

Hi and welcome! :) I hope you can get the avatar soon... I really hate those random avatars so much-- there are a bunch that I STILL don't have, so I feel your pain.

Hi Ben! :) Nice to see another Neopets fan here. And I love Lost too! :)

Hi Mouch! :) Nice to see another Neopets oldbie around... I love the name Stella Luna for your kitty, she sounds gorgeous!

Hey Lux! Nice to meet you and welcome to the boards. :)

Hey Ashby! Welcome back to the forums. Whereabouts in Ohio do you live? I used to live in Northeast Ohio a few years ago. Now I live in Massachusetts.

Hi, I'm Iris... it's nice to meet you! I like your icon-- yay for ponies! :)

Hi and welcome to the Forum! I'm pretty new myself, but everyone here has been very nice. :)

Neither color is my cup of tea, but I do like the design of the Wraith one...

Aww, thanks you guy! <3 I finished the Faerie Ixi. It's kind of last minute, but I hope it gets in-- it looks like they haven't put up the Ixi pictures yet, so maybe I'll get lucky!

My favorite part of summer is the flea markets and yard sales! I love looking for cool old stuff from childhood like video games, toys, etc. I hoard whatever I find over the summer and then sell it on eBay once Christmas season hits for way more than I paid. :D I've had a good year so far, with several boxes and bags already filled.

I'm also working on a series of stories/art about Iris, the little tiger character in my avatar. It's kind of like a comic or graphic novel, but not exactly.  I'm hoping to have something to show for it by fall, if all goes well.

Well, drat! I just got back into playing again after taking a few weeks off... go figure! >_<

Was it only available yesterday? Nothing is showing up for me, so I guess I missed it. :(

Huh, that's weird... it worked for me just fine a few minutes ago. You have to look for it on the center of the page-- it's the first item mixed in with a bunch of other NC items.

Yeah, my Neofriends thingie never works either... anyway, welcome to TDN! I just recently joined here myself but everyone here has been very nice. :)

Oooh, that's a good idea... I will sit on it until the Faerie Festival for sure. :) I'm working on a Faerie Ixi for Ixi Day... I tend to draw a lot of Faerie pets-- I'm such a girl! LOL.

Nice! I always wanted to learn how to do animation. I absolutely love Disney/Pixar movies, and Studio Ghibli... :)

I have a female Zombie Zafara named Pumbled up for adoption! No trades, sorry... I have all the pets I want at the moment. :) Info is in the lookup:

This is one avatar I still don't have! It seems like it would be so easy to get, but nada. Anyway, my user name is emilyfarie if anyone wants to send me some NM. :)

How... long... it... takes... to... do... anything... worth... doing...

Seriously, glaciers move faster. For example, I've been training my pet Skyperch daily for months now, and he STILL hasn't even hit Level 50 yet!

And don't even get me started on the Stock Market.

I collect Faerie Petpets! Either ones from the Faerie Shop, or ones painted Faerie... but I don't have anything rare.

I only hoarded until I got the SDB avatar, but now I run a tight ship! I still don't have the Rubbish avatar, but I doubt I'll EVER get that one.

I have a few things I'm saving for a rainy day, or gifts from friends, that kind of thing, but most of what I get, I just sell on. I don't see the sense in keeping a bunch of stuff rotting in there for all eternity.
