Otter Ott Bitch Fest 2013 (and things)
12 years ago
I rarely make journals on FA. I dislike doing so. Mainly because you can't filter between art submissions and journal submissions with FA. There are some people I want to follow because I enjoy their art - however, as horrible as this sounds, I don't really care about them buying a new bike or going to a con - I like their art and that is that. Likewise, I have friends whom I'd love to be able to follow their journals.. but they get lost in the sea of "STREAM NOW" or "HELP ME I'M BROKE AGAIN" posts from the ton of people I watch for my fappy times. ANYWAY..
Life has been interesting these past few years. I've lost a good job, lived a crazy-ass life-style in a very communal apartment with some awesome people, moved to and lived/worked on an island for a month, nearly been homeless, went through a rough break-up, made and lost new friends, and I am still ticking onward.
Currently I'm trying to hammer down a job with Staples in their Copy and Print department (I've done the work previously and really loved it). It seems to be going through, albeit really slowly. Webbed fingers are crossed.
I live in an apartment with several other people. My ex
threerandomwords, and a straight non-furry couple. We recently booted a 5th roommate to the curb for lack of personal hygiene and a general lack of caring rather or not anything near him was clean. To give a rough impression of him, you'd wish him a good morning and usually get a "yup" in response. He had a bedroom, but usually slept on the couch in the livingroom. We scolded him over this countless times, but he usually only worked for a few days time. He'd bath about once a month, so stank something horrible. Was the type of situation where you didn't want to bring people around because you were ashamed of him. He is finally gone, though. woot woot. Now we have to deal with the house female never cleaning up after herself when she cooks. She has this mentality that if she cooks food (even if it isn't for any of us), then she shouldn't have to clean. She recently left a half-used stick of butter with the butter knife still in it for over 24 hours before I finally put it back in the fridge. Disgusting. Needless to say, i want out of this situation.
Oh, and to top it off. Now that Lutris and I are no longer an object, I'd like a room of my own, right? There is a vacancy with the messy roommate having just been booted, so this shouldn't have been an issue. Apparently the couple picked out a new roommate and agreed to let him move in without even consulting Lutris or myself. So not only do I not get the free room, despite me having lived here for two years, I don't even get a say on rather I want this new person moving in or not. Joy beyond joys. BUT they're at least going to give me my own bedroom. I get the room with the roof that leaks when it rains. YAY!
There is a good bit more I could bitch about, but I feel as if I've summed it up fairly well already. So I'll just leave it at that.

Have you looked on Pounced? Many times furs seem to be looking for room mates and not just relationships. Another furry site that offers classified (roommates and other things) is Furry2Furry. Do you need/want to stay in the same geographical area or town?
I also wish you the very best of luck in your employment search and hope that the Staple job pans out for you. *hugs*
I hope I haven't seem like a lost friend despite the lack of communication. I still think about you now and then between all the things I deal with regularly. I don't think we could ever be as close as we used to be. I'm not saying that because I wish for it to be so, but simply because the paths each of us have gone down that have caused that to be the case. Still, I think there is room for the occasional catch up like this. But life is amusing and can sometimes even turn that around, where people you once thought you'd never hear from have become part of your life again.
I think that's all for now. Perhaps other opportunities will arise, perhaps they will not. Whatever the case may be with that, I hope life continues to share its gift with you in the more positive direction.
also, i just kinda found you on twitter [though i am moving to the east coast soon], so, don't mind me
