I realized that, with the previous journal - and submissions - nearing 3 years of age, I should really probably update this so people don't assume I vacated the community ages ago.

What is there to update on? Quite a lot.

I've graduated, and now I'm currently employed... as a network analyst. It's not the most glamorous job, but it pays surprisingly well, and I'm hoping to be loan-free shortly. The only issue is the awful schedule - I work late, very late, and currently have an amazing 40-60 minute commute. It's not unusual for me to have days where I essentially wake up, drive, work, come home, and sleep. But, I'm spending my days off looking for places in Calgary - aiming for May, or June, to move a bit closer to my work.

When I can be, I still hop onto SL now and then, mostly on my days off from work. In between this journal and the last, there's been something called the Aventity Shark released, so I've obviously called off my plans to get into the avatar business - I'm just idly working on my own custom mesh avatar instead. Right now just about all of my work in that area is guns, guns, and more guns, which really wouldn't fit in FA's AUP to my knowledge.

I'm planning - as in definite, barring emergencies / cosmic events - to attend AnthroCon this year. I did go last year, and much like then, I will be spending pretty much all of it with my fiance  aryte. I was a bit shell-shocked at the last one - family didn't really help - so I'm hoping I'll get to do a bit more at this one.

I'm also planning to update this page more often. Odds are I won't upload my commissions - they're pretty much all readily available in my Favorites instead, linking you directly to the artist so you can fav/watch them instead.
