A Whooole New Woooooooooooooooooooooorld

ALRIGHT IT'S BEEN A WHILE. But I'm back, baby. And the reason for this start-and-stop in my life?
I GOT A JOB!
Like, an honest to goodness I'm-doing-animation-to-feed-and-house-myself job. For now I'd like to not say too much about it, more because I'd rather not forcibly associate my accounts and stuff with them than for any sorta personal reservations I have (as if I'm important enough for said association to matter at all, but still). But it's TV animation, and it's a show that I think is gonna be a lot of fun for me to work on. I know I'm being such a tease and I'm sorry fer that but as of now that's what I feel comfy sharing.
Anyways, it was a pretty short notice offer, so the past three or four weeks have just been me trying to find housing and pack up my life so I could become a permanent California resident. All that's basically' outta the way now, just a few loose ends to tie up, an' now I just have one more day of emotionally exploding inside myself until I go to my first day on the job on Monday. Life's mine to live now, my choices, my responsibilities, all that jazz -- adapting has been crazy and I'm super excited and terrified and disbelieving and happy all at the same time. I really didn't expect that I'd be back here so soon after school ended, I thought I'd hafta be job hunting for a solid year. I'm so grateful for everything right now.
Aaanyways, so what now? Before I mentioned I wanted to be predominantly a 3D artist; CG's definitely not out the window, but I realize one of my huge motivations for that was I didn't think I was gonna find a job with my current skill set very easily. I do wanna learn 3D, modelling, rigging, materials, animating, lighting, everything. But I'm gonna just take it slow and do what I feel like now that I know I can support myself (for now, at least)!
And something else! I really want to actually start telling stories with my work. There's a lot of reasons why I've never finished a comic or a personal animation, but I'm sayin' here an' now that I'm done with all those reasons. I'm just gonna make what's fun and let things flow. I just finished the first strip of a comic I wanna make, basically just a silly journal of mine.
AND ONE MORE THING. I wanna be more social in the fandom. I can sorta have money now, which means maybe I can sorta go to some conventions or something. Furries is so fun for me guys, let's be animal friends.
This is already crazy long. Life is crazy. I think this is everything though. Lookin' forward to the future!
