Something is wrong with my daughter
« on: June 06, 2012, 08:28:15 PM »
She went to a store we have in downtown Austin called Oddities. She bought some ducklings...dead ducklings.

She named them Loki and Thor. She is going to make helmets for them.

Haha! I simply do not know how to respond to this. It's not often that I am speechless. They're real? Any other strange behaviors you're noticing of the young one? :rotf:

She has always been an odd one.  She found a dead lizard the other day. She brought it home and wanted to "articulate" it. So she soaked it in peroxide but once all the skin and stuff was off it she figured out that it was too small to "articulate".

By the way, she isn't odd as in killing small pets or anything. She isn't going to become a serial killer.  :p

So one will be a Loki Duck and the other one will be a Thor loser?    :whistling:

Don't feel too bad, BEG. Yesterday I was working out at the physical therapy place. My PT had just returned from Europe with a trip with his mom and brother.

I asked how the trip went. He said that his brother's luggage never arrived. They were all upset. Seems mommy was in a container---her ashes, that is. I wasn't sure how to take it. He said his mom was so sick, but had always wanted to go to England and Ireland, so they decided to take mommy in a vase with them. And she was lost. Eeeek

How about getting her a nice entomologist's kit? Sounds like she'd enjoy that. All kidding aside, she might have a talent and bent toward the biological sciences to be encouraged--not in any extreme, overparenting way, just by getting her the right tools and turning her loose.

How old is she, Helmets may be a good way to go, and unusual as some people look for the different and unexpected.

Actually the interest in taxidermy go back hundreds of years.   It has become an art and very profitable business.

Any of you deer hunters out there had to pay to get a deer head mounted for display in your home ????  Anyone know the cost of having just a fish preserved from big mouth Bass to Sword fish ???

Teddy Roosevelt became an expert on taxidermy in his youth and so was ---As I heard, George Washington----

The interest in taxidermy may lead your daughter into a medical field, art, or the field of Veterinarians.

So your daughter may if young loose interest in dead animals, this may be just a one time thing for her.

Don't panic here, for the youths interests come and go, some may be just a whimsy as putting hats on dead ducks.

She has shown interest in taxidermy but not seriously. I always felt she would make a great vet because she shows a huge interest in animals and not afraid to handle anything from snakes to large dogs and is rather good in biology. She will mess with the growths on our older dog and pick off tick/fleas if they happen to have any. In class she was not squeamish when having to dissect animals.

She doesn't seem interested in the whole vet thing though. Instead she is going to college (Ringling) for game design.

Ringling is a great school. Sarasota is a nice town (I grew up there), but Ringling isn't necessarily in the best part. I'm sure SLW would be better at telling you what's up with the area nowadays.
