I want to make a new fursuit...
Posted 6 years ago... and I want it to become work related.
That's a challenge. I know that husky ain't exactly a fire dog, but that's my fursona so I'll stick with that. I want to use the logo of the safety region as a "spot" on my back. Here's a link:
https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_image.....1/Z_sPB8Mx.jpg
I'll keep the name that has been given to me by my colleagues: Lurch.
I will probably make a foam fireman's helmet with some added details like flashers (not sure how that should go, though).
...and I need to make a duct tape dummy. With me being over 2 meters, that's gonna be a LOT of duct tape!
Hopefully next year I can go to our Open Doors Day in fursuit.

Contract signed!
Posted 6 years agoBey bey idiot farm, hello useful job!
Yesterday I signed my contract with the VRK (VeiligheidsRegio Kennemerland, or SafetyRegion Kennemerland). The contract is set for three years. My new chief told me she'll do everything in her power to find funds to keep me after those three years. In the event that that is not possible, I can always return to the idiot farm.
I just hope that will never happen...

Boop, two more hospital visits!
Posted 7 years agoOne unplanned, one planned. Yikes.
So on Sunday I had my foot checked in the hospital because the wound on my foot decided to give me pain like there was no tomorrow. The doctor prescribed me Diclofenac. It helps, thankfully. It also enabled me to get a good night sleep.
Today I have gone to the hospital to have those arteries fixed/burned. They used local anesthetic to numb it, unfortunately the anesthetic hurt the most. Fancy that. My right leg was the most sensitive (I thought my left leg would give me hell as that has the most scars on it) and after they were done with the needle torture it felt like 10 kilos (22 lbs) of lead. The burning was done quickly, 2 to 3 minutes per leg. My left leg was easier to numb (but still hecka painful).
So then the question was: how the heck do I get home. They had told me beforehand that I wasn't allowed to drive home. After the procedure they told me why. Say I drove home and I got into a car accident, the insurance might hear I just got from the hospital and they might not be willing to pay for damages. That was it.
I got a cup of coffee, the nurse wrapped my legs in bandages against the leaking fluids (that's freaky btw, seeing water drip out of your leg!), I put my clothes back on and just walked home. I need to keep the stockings on for 48 hours and then about two more weeks for my old compression socks. And then the latter can go into the bin.
Finally!

Here's to another round of hospital visits
Posted 7 years agoDrink up!
Last year my left foot started to develop a little nick below the ankle. The was a odd white spot there and it hurt.
I went to the doctor, she send me to a dermatologist.
The dermatologist scheduled me for an ultrasound examination.
The guy doing the examination told me the return valves in my legs aren't functioning the way they should, but it could be dealt with.
A call back from the dermatologist confirmed that. They also set me up for a meeting with a surgeon.
The surgeon explained to me that they can use a laser to close the broken vein. And yes, the body has deeper veins that can take over the function.
So now I'm scheduled to have surgery on the 5th of February. I'll be wearing my stockings for a few weeks more after that, but after those few weeks it's bey bey compression stockings!

German Comin Con Dortmund
Posted 7 years agoSo on Saturday I went to Germany once again. Off to see 2 Gryphon again, who was doing a book signing there.
The way to the con was interesting. A lot of roadworks, curses, the usual.
The con itself was a BLAST. Finding 2 wasn't easy as they had him tucked away in an unmarked corner of the con. It was good to see him again, though.
So, what did I see over there? Well, I saw a lot of Star Wars characters, a couple of Doctor Who characters, A steampunk Stormtrooper, a steampunk Borg, one Firefly character (Jane), a ton of anime characters that I cannot name because I simply do not know who they represented, five fursuiters and one Eosfoxx (thanks for the autographed art!).
In the end both my hips were hurting, as well as my neck and my knees.
The way back send me all over Dortmund while the con is pretty much located at the end of the freeway. Thank you GPS, you're a letdown once again.
Was it worth all the trouble? Yeah, I think so, but next time I'll probably take the train.

Rest In Piece Stan Lee
Posted 7 years agoStan Lee, the Marvel Comics legend who co-created some of its most famous heroes like Spider-Man, Iron Man, and the Fantastic Four, died Monday in Los Angeles at the age of 95.
95. Damn, I'd sign up for that age! At least he stuck around for a while. Thanks for the movies, Stan!

Opportunity comes a'knocking!
Posted 7 years agoSo, those of you who know me a bit know that I'm working at a fire station, as jack-of-all-trades. That means I do jobs like making coffee to small repairs to cleaning the main hall and washing firetrucks. To those who didn't... well now you know!
So, coming Wednesday, if weather permits, I will be getting into the basket of our ladder truck and hopefully I'll be going up to 30 meters. I imagine this will be awesome and somewhat scary. I'll be taking my photo camera and my GoPro with me.
I hope to upload some pictures of my experience later this week! In the mean time, you can look at my Youtube channel and see some videos that I made with my old Nokia of firetrucks departing from the station in a hurry!

Emotions
Posted 7 years agoFunny how my girl always counters me "I'm lonely" when I'm angry at her, even if it was her to cause the anger in the first place. I'm still not sure how female logic works. I'll probably never find that out. I never had that problem around guys...
I sometimes miss the time that I had a boyfriend. Pity it didn't work out...

Awkward job!
Posted 8 years agoSo, this week I got sent to a hotel where my head was literally scraping the ceiling everywhere I went. The ceilings in the hallways were 2,10 meters high and since I'm 2,08 meters and the soles of my boots add another 2 centimeters... You get the idea I think.
The job was staffing the technical and repair department, but it also meant walking 8 to 10 kilometers every day. Which is, when you have to slalom between the smoke detectors and emergency exit signs rather awkward.
This hotel was the biggest hotel of the Benelux (or so I'm told). the hotel has close to a 1,000 rooms but don't expect anything too fancy. And don't expect high ceilings in the rooms either.
The room have a hallway where, if I would stretch my back my head would dislodge a ceiling tile.
So beware: if you ever travel to Schiphol and you have to stay at a hotel that was named after a bird: I hope you're shorter than 2,00 meters. Because if not, this hotel might give you a headache! (In more ways than one.)

Rest In Peace Marloes
Posted 8 years agoThis morning I checked on my pets only to find Marloes in an awkward position in the little log shelter and Tommy huddled up against her and I couldn't coax him out. So I lifted the little shelter and found out Marloes had passed away.
Sigh. My little shorthair critter is no more. She wasn't ill that I know of and she was still feisty two days ago when she nibbled my fingers.
I've already called a friend from the shelter. He said they had lost three guineas as well. There's no suitable female present at the shelter yet, but they're going to keep their eyes open for a new mate for Tommy.

Posted 8 years agoIt's my 40th birthday today. I've been on this dirtball for FOUR DECADES. *sobs*
My holiday (aka my booze run) (update 1)
Posted 8 years agoSoooo I today I came home from a much needed holiday. 2 nights in Mainz en 5 nights in Luxembourg. No Skype, two very brief logins in SL to check my messages and no phone calls. I had a blast and my girl as well. My girl wanted to see the opera Mathis der Mahler (Mathis the painter) which bored me about 3/4 of the way to the point I missed about half an hour in total.
Mainz is an interesting city. I made some nice pictures of the city, I snapped some shorts of a very old aircraft that had 3 engines and we had some wonderful WONDERFUL food. And I've been drunk every day. We scored 3 bottles of booze over there. It's DIRT CHEAP over there.
On towards Luxembourg. I've been drunk every day and I've been swimming almost every day. We scored 5 more bottles of booze, one of those will go to a very good friend of mine who took care of the pets while we were out partying abroad.
So there are a few things I can score on my checklist:
Getting drunk. CHECK, every evening.
Getting hung over. CHECK, almost every morning.
Getting booze. CHECK, 8 bottles in total.
Taking the estimated between 200 and 600 pictures. CHECK, I got over 300.
Driving 190 km/h. CHECK, surprisingly my one liter engine didn't go kaboom...
Driving 200 km/h. NO CHECK, didn't get enough downhill time on the Autobahn to achieve that.
Acquire more commemorative coins. CHECK, we've been to a museum where they sold two coins.
Make videos. CHECK, over 25GBs of videos were shot during this holiday.
Update 1:
Found two more bottles of booze in luggage, making 10 in total now.

Another operation survived! (this is getting annoying!)
Posted 8 years agoSo today the stitches came out, only for the doc to discover a hematoma underneath. So he dug most of the old blood out and added a new stitch over the hole. Now again, blood started flowing, but not from the hole of the hematoma. No, this time it was from the first hole of the stitch...
So the doc added some more small bandages and one big one on top. He then gave me instructions to not move my head too much for the coming SEVEN DAYS. Oh come on! How in the hell can I move around like that??? I had made plans for this week and for this weekend. I guess I need to drop those AGAIN.
This is NOT what I took the week off for. FML.

Another operation survived! (Don't read while eating!)
Posted 8 years agoSo today I got a little bump removed from my neck. It was scheduled for removal last Monday, but since the last time the doctor had observed it, it had grown a bit, so the doc figured he needed more than the scheduled 20 minutes. Six months will do that. So today it finally got removed. The doctor estimated it would take 30 minutes but it actually too two doctors 30 minutes.
So what got removed? A sebaceous gland that had grown under the skin and had grown to the point of becoming a nuisance. So I got 5 injections of lidocaine in total followed by some cutting and digging. Literally, the bugger had grown quite deep. How big was it? Drop shaped, about 2 centimeters long and at the top about a centimeter across. I got five stitches of it as well.
I didn't take a picture, one look at it was enough for me to got "Holy sh*t" and "Yeah you can toss the bugger alright".
So now the lido is starting the wear off and I'm getting this odd, pulling feeling in my neck. Next Thursday the stitches will be removed.

Sick, part two
Posted 8 years agoSo this evening I got something stuck in my eye. Behind the upper eyelid was my guess, I've had that before. But this time my eye reacted rather badly. Gunk started oozing out of it. I had seen small white threads before, they always remove small debris, but this time there were chunks coming out...?
So I had a short trip to the emergency room of my local hospital (at least one of you should be familiar with this story as you've been there with me before). So while I was in the waiting room I pulled out this GLOB that had a mall hair in it. That might have been the problem. But I want to see the doctor who told me the surface of my eye was damaged to the point there was pus coming out of it. OW!
So I cleared my eye and they added a lot of ointment to my rather sore eye and patched it shut. Had it been black you could call me a pirate. So now on top on the flu I've lost depth perception.
Arrrrr.

Sick
Posted 8 years agoSo yesterday I had to take a hot shower in which the first ten minutes were of me shivering in COLD. So last night I've been tossing and turning and waking up about every 15 minutes or so until I finally got up at four in the morning...
I've called work and told them I'm sick, I called the doctor, his assistant called me back, I called them back after I managed to get a temperature reading and it's now clear. I have the flu. This sucks.

Rest In Pieces, America
Posted 9 years agoSo Donald Trump won. Wow. I'm amazed that the Americans chose for a racist, bigoted idiot. Why do I call him that? Well, I didn't see much of the elections or the propaganda before that, but my Twitter timeline is getting overwhelmed by racist pictures reported by people.
I'm glad my girl is living with me here. She won't have any gun toting racist white dickheads chasing her trying to harm her. I'm glad we live in Holland. Granted the country has its problems, but at least it's not the US.
I can't help feeling sorry for those who didn't want Trump. And I can see people fleeing the country. I guess that wall Trump wants to build isn't to keep the Mexicans out, but the Americans in. Maybe he can ask the Germans the recipe for really strong concrete, since they had some experience with building walls (sorry for the pun, but I'm being sarcastic here!).
For those that want to come to Europe, I'm sure there's room for you guys. Just leave the guns behind.

Kenny Baker, The Actor Who Brought R2-D2 to Life, Dies at 83
Posted 9 years agoQuoted from here:
http://io9.gizmodo.com/kenny-baker-.....ies-1785245979
Kenny Baker, the man who played R2-D2 in the Star Wars films has died at the age of 83, after battling a long illness.
As reported by The Guardian, Baker first became famous in 1977 for playing the lovable robot in Star Wars IV: A New Hope. Even though he was a robot, R2-D2 quickly became one of the most, well, human characters in the films. Baker, who was less than four feet tall, reprised the character in The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and all the prequel films.
Baker even returned for The Force Awakens as a consultant, despite his ailing health. While he appeared at a European red carpet for the film, he wasn’t able to attend the premiere in L.A. His niece, Abigail Shield, said Baker was luckily able to see George Lucas when he visited Manchester.
Baker is also known for appearances in beloved 80s films like The Goonies, Time Bandits, and Flash Gordon.
Shield told The Guardian, “It was expected, but it’s sad nonetheless. He had a very long and fulfilled life. He brought lots of happiness to people and we’ll be celebrating the fact that he was well loved throughout the world. We’re all very proud of what he achieved in his lifetime.”
Sigh... :(

So today gave me a black smear on my clean sheet
Posted 9 years agoI got my first official warning from work. I had a talk with my team leader and his manager and they reprimanded me on my actions yesterday. I told them my arguments AND the remarks my doctor told me and they just wiped the whole lot under the table. Not important, THEIR word is the law.
Yeah. We'll see about that...
[Edit] I've send a message to the trade union with the story, see what kind of advise they can give me.

A little off my heart
Posted 9 years agoSo, why is it that you CAN'T take your relationship problems with you to work? I had a bit of a fall out with my girl this morning. I think on average one "Good morning" in the morning between me waking up and leaving for work is a bit meager, so I finally got a bit peeved about that this morning. We exchanged a few words and I left rather angry.
A couple hours later at work the tears finally came and quite frankly I was ready to get it over with. Life, I mean. Just give me a rope and 10 minutes of silence... That would have been enough. Too bad for the one finding me, though. But I had a chat with a co-worker and he cheered me up, but he had also called my team leader. And that was a mistake.
Team leaders should be just that. Leaders. Not social construction workers. My coworkers cheered me up, my team leader burned me right down, telling me to "man up and get back to work". How in the HELL am I going to get back to work when my head is filled with sorrow?
He gave me the look of misunderstanding, then I told him "I hereby call in sick." "I don't accept that." "Fine, write me a few hours." "I'm not gonna do that either." I then shrugged it off, walked away and said "Suit yourself, I'm out of here!" I left in anger and drove straight home.
My girlfriend got an earful, she got angry at me and started complaining about the lack of shelving again. "I have nowhere to put my clothes!" Yeah, that's when my lid blew off and left a dent in the ceiling. It's nice to have money in this world, but the way my paycheck is set up I'm paid LESS than minimum wage. I'll be happy if there's ANYTHING left at the end of the month. And with TWO hungry mouths to fill, that ain't easy. So that's what silenced her. Money is an issue, always has been.
I've called my doctor, I like to see a psychologist. They'll call me back.
My team leader called me, he wants to have a chat with me tomorrow. I don't know what it'll bring, but if he starts complaining I'm gonna ask to see HIS boss. Arrogant prick.

"Furries are a very strange "cult" that enjoy dressing up as animals and engaging in sexual intercourse while still wearing their animal costumes, with definitely should be considered zoophilia. Imagine if the cult dressed up as babies and little kids instead and had sexual intercourse with each other, that would be considered a form of pedophelia. It's disgusting and needs to stop NOW."

-I really can't remember joining a cult. Also, why are they changing the subject to babies? I'm not sure I want to meet that Aussie...

I quote:
Class all furry activities as ZoophiliaFurries are individuals with a sexual attraction to animals. Currently it is only illegal to actually perform the act of sex on an animal. While in some states pornographic material of actual animals is illegal in some it is not. All cartoon images/videos of pornographic animals are not illegal. this needs to be changed. It is disgusting and immoral.So apparently someone wants to have congress look at furries and ban the lot because we all like to fuck animals. Right. Now, here's a little snippet from the comments and MY vision on that.
