Work continues to be the same game with a lot of the same frustrations. But I'm tired of looking at it/thinking about it so I'm creating another journal with more positive updates on what I've been doing outside of work while I continue to look for another job to stablize that end.

So what else have I been up to? Getting out of the house as much as I can. Appreciating time spent with friends while I try to make new ones at the same time. I've been rather stagnant on that one... and that is something I need to put more effort into. Friends are something you can never have too many of.

I've been very quiet about it, but I'm running for the  mnfurs board of directors. Why have I been so quiet? Because I don't feel that running for the board is about ME. I'm doing it for the COMMUNITY.

I know a fair amount about the working of the machine as it were in part because I have been with the community for a long time. And it's been a very rewarding ride. I don't want a title and I don't think this is about me. If I got elected it would not be my personal goals and vendetta it will be the communitys will that I would uphold.

Also, I consider the current board members as Friends. A few of them are considered to be very close friends. They have provided counselling to me on countless occasions. So a way I am doing this because I want to give something back.

No matter what I want to continue to work with the MNFurs Board of Directors, the MNFurs staff and the community as a TEAM. Because without teamwork and commodary things start falling apart just like they are at work. I have no one at my current job to ask for for help. I have no one I can offer my help to as well which is getting really frustrating here.

But I can still get such support from the  mnfurs community and even the furry community at large, such as Midwest Furfest where I am privelaged to be another team member. I wouldn't trade such commodratey for all the gold pressed latinum in the Ferengi Trade Alliance.
