Life Update - October 13, 2015
10 years ago
Well, fall is in full swing here in Ohio...the leaves are starting to turn, the weather is starting to turn colder, and the days are (depressingly) getting shorter and shorter. Ah well, such as the season.
As for myself, I'm holding my own as much as I can. I still haven't found full-time employment, but for the past couple of months I've had a temp assignment. For the past couple of months, I've been busier than I had been between all of March and July, so even though I can't be guaranteed a full 40-hour week, it's still much MUCH better than nothing at all. The end point of the assignment is drawing near, though, which means that I'll be doubling down on my job search...hopefully this assignment can be a good step-off point. We'll see.
FurConsin recently took place, and from all accounts it was a pretty successful event. I wish I could've been there with all of the fur friends I made during my time in Wisconsin, but unfortunately it wasn't to be. I hope everyone had a great time...and congratulations to Aetus and his mate Colin, who got married AT this year's FurConsin!
Seeing news of that event on my social media got me to thinking about my time there. Honestly, my mind is still in a jumble about the whole thing, and it's probably better that I don't go into the details here...but I'm putting the blame for the fallout completely on my shoulders. I did too many things wrong, didn't do enough things right, and basically shoved everyone in my life away in the last three months I was there. Had it been me, I would've kicked myself out the day things fell apart...but that's just me.
Thinking back on that period of time, it's made me realize that I've REALLY let myself go. I need to start focusing on keeping my self engaged in life, and making myself happy...because it's obvious by now that I'm incapable of making anyone else happy, and probably never will make anyone else happy. It's a depressing thought, but with my track record, I'm coming to realize it's probably the truth.
I sincerely hope that one day I'm proven wrong...
At any rate, I hope that your autumn time is going well...keep living, enjoy the season, and may the rest of the year be a great time for you.
Later,
Colin
