I've once again been offered a great opportunity to chase my dream job! I'll be headed to the great state of Wyoming to work for the National Park Service for 5 months this summer.
I'll be a boni-fied park ranger for Fossil Butte National Monument (for more on FOBU check out their NPS page: www.nps.gov/fobu/index.htm )! I'll be leading guided hikes and tours of a truly unique paleontological resource. FOBU showcases some of THE BEST fossilized examples of Eocene aged (52 Million years old!) freshwater organisms and their environment.
FOBU has a small visitor's center near Kemmerer, Wyoming that is packed full of beautiful fossils. Swing by if your interested and I'll tell you all about it!
As for my other hobbies...
I'm packing up all my customizing supplies, fodder bins, figures, tools, and paints... but I don't expect to really get to do a whole lot of customizing. I'll meet up with a few fellow customizers for one weekend though so I know I'll do a little!
I also won't have internet access where I'm staying, but I will have it at the library in town... so about once a week or so I'll log on to check messages and do what I can.
But, like I said, I won't be doing a lot of customs, so don't expect much out of me... If your interested in my work though, feel free to send me a message or comment on my deviations and I'll get back to as many comments as I can!
Thanks for all my followers and fan's that make this hobby so rewarding, but I'm glad one of my other hobbies has turned into a rewarding job (and hopefully a career!)

Devious Journal Entry
I have several items listed on e-bay this week. I will be moving soon and changing jobs, starting my career as a teacher. Unfortunately I won't be getting a pay check for a few months and I'm going to be cutting it close making ends meet... so I'm selling a few things on e-bay, and if anyone is interested in anything from my gallery and offers me the right deal I'm willing to part with other pieces too....
One popular item I hope will sell will be zee captain, snippy and engie figures based on romantically apocalyptic's web comic:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Romantically-Apocalyptic-action-figures-custom-gi-joe-zee-captain-snippy-engie-/1814
everything up for possible sale...
I have no idea who still follows this page, as I've moved most of my posting to my facebook page as it's easier to update and connect with people. Especially since most of what I do is through my cell phone now and DA isn't very compatible...
anyway. I have fallen on hard times this month and will be needing some extra cash to get me out of a huge bind... that means I'm offering practically everything in my collection up for sale. Bear in mind there are a few things I won't, or can't sell, but for most of it, if the offer is good enough, I will consider it.
So, if you don't have facebook message me here on DA if you are interested in any
unemployment...
So previous journal talks about how I am now home, and jobless...
With that being said, I have a little bit of time on my hands... Time to take commissions, and try to make a little money off my hobby. I will be listing some things on e-bay within the next few weeks, but if you have a pay-pal account, you like my work, and would like to work out a commission project shoot me a private message here and let me know what you have in mind. If I have all the parts I think I need we can work out a cool deal, or if I need to get parts from e-bay we can work that out as well.
This is my idea for how this works:
If you have an idea, tell me it.
Home again home again...
jiggity jig...
So I'm back home from being in Wyoming all summer, and even though I took all my hobby supplies I was incredibly busy this summer and only made a few of the hundreds of ideas I wanted to complete this summer. But now I am unemployed! So I have plenty of time...
so expect to start seeing some custom action figures being posted, more and more as the next few weeks progress.
I've also got tons of fossils to work on, prepare, and display. Some fossil based jewelry to work on, as well as many other project ideas. All using fossils from areas of wyoming, utah, and colorado where I was hanging out this summer. Including fossil
