Christmas Break

Hey there, Hi there, Ho Ho Ho there.

So here I am on my Christmas break.  This is the slowest time of the year for the Reptile Parties business.  In fact we only have 2 shows between now and the new year.  One today and one on December 30th.

As a result, holiday.  I haven't had a Christmas break like this since I was in school.  2 weeks off to do absolutely nothing.  Part of me is glad, who wouldn't be, I can catch up on some TV, really make a dent in my Star Trek: The Next Generation rematch, start working out a bit more.  The flip side is that I am also not making any money during this time period.  Means that I can't go out and buy things, so it becomes more like when I was in school.

I was able to make an interesting deal the other day.  I found an add on Kijii where a guy was looking for any used Apple TV 2.  He would either pay $200 for the unit (which was $100 when I bought it) or he would purchase a new Apple TV 3 and give you $60 cash as well.  Turns out that people will pay $300 for a "jailbroken" version of the Apple TV 2 and his supply from the US had dried up.  Hell, I will take a device upgrade and a bit of cash.  I don't know the first thing about jailbreaking devices and as long as it plays netflix and the shows I stream from my laptop, I couldn't care less.

All in all things are good.  There is a big announcement coming from Reptile Parties in the new year that I wish I could talk about as it is heavily on my mind and will be taking up 90% of my time.  However, I have agreed to keep things to myself until everything is finalized.

In the meantime, I will just care for my animals and bide my time.

Merry Christmas everyone and have an incredible New Year.

Jeremy
