More news about the Timmy's Eggs	Views: 772
Timmy/Timmina laid 2 more eggs today. It is veterans day - Saturday Nov 10 in Los Angeles. Bri and I went out to Burbank's Noah's Bagels for breakfast. We walked around a street fair there and then came home to get to work - Bri on her blankets and knitted hats, me on website stuff and a quest to track down silver hoops to put in my old piercings which I recently discovered never healed up. I have four in total, two in my left ear, one in my nose, and one in my eye brow. I don't want to bother with the brow. But now that I can work from home I figure it would be fun to have my nose and ear rings back in. When we got home I noticed Timmy had laid another egg. It was too late, she had eaten it (yes she eats them if we don't catch them in time) like I said Timmy will eat anything. Oh well, time to clean the aquarium. It's well over due anyways. I took a shower and when I finished and walked into our bedroom Timmy was floating with all her limbs tucked in. It was a trance like state that I have never seem. I confused her tail for her head for a second because it was dilated and bulging out, and I watched with wonder as an egg shot out and fell to the rocky aquarium floor below her. This time I got it out before she could devour it. And this time I looked up more information on turtle eggs. According to The American Tortoise Rescue Website - the eggs if kept right hatch within 70-77 days. The writer of this page says her friend currently has 64 eggs incubating! What the hell have we gotten ourselves into?

Timmy Lays Eggs	Views: 728
I got a turtle a couple months ago. It's name is Timmy. I spent about 2 months deciding whether or not I should get a turtle. After I was convinced that it wouldn't stink, that I could take care of it, and that it wasn't going to break the bank, it was the day that I realized the turtle at the pet shops name was Timmy that I decided to bring Timmy home. Timmy eats gold fish and turtle pellets. They are messy eaters and since Timmy is an aquatic turtle the food floats in the water and the fish help Timmy eat it. Luckily we got a high powered filter that cleans the water well so we only have to give Timmy fresh water ever couple of weeks. Timmy will eat anything. The way we socialize with Timmy other then petting Timmy and talking to Timmy, is by putting our fingers up to timmy's face and watching Timmy try to eat our fingers. A day or two before Halloween Timmy started laying eggs. I had no idea but Timmy was actually Timmina lady turtle of the rocks. I also call her Tammy sometimes now. We are currently trying to incubate some of Timina's eggs as there is a possibility they will hatch. We hope to have baby Timmies soon :)

Groups	Views: 584
Last night I got burst of motivation and started cranking out the groups section. This is by far the largest build I've ever done completely on my own for Ekaweeka. It involves all sorts of programming I haven't had to do yet. The challenge is so invigorating though. Without hesitation the solutions to each obstacle came to mind immediately. I should get an acknowledgement badge or something. I was trying to explain to the Box Eight guys how programming was very artistic last night.... hahaha well it is, it's making something out of nothing. Only difference is the results are not so much visual as they are giving life to something that had none.

Trying out Item sharring	Views: 694
We've got an item sharring page you may have not noticed it, when you are looking at an ekaweeka item there is a link called "Share This Item" in the top right bar. I'm trying to add a field that lists a hyperlink for fast copy and paste link links. These are great for bloggers or people who want to add a link to their item on another website. Here is a link that was made on the page, lets see if it works! Throw Blanket, By: Lullabee

The Photo System Just Got Better	Views: 693
We just added a new feature that allows you to set a photo in your photo gallery to your profile image. The new profile image change feature unlike before allows you to change without deleting the original profile image. And you do not have to upload the image at the time of setting it as your profile image.
