Yet another year.
Posted 8 years agoIt's 2017. And as much as I'd like to mope about what the last year has done to me (among others) I'm not going to.
Instead, here's to 2017!
A year for me to get my skills out there and start making more of a difference than the under-selling children's books my name is tied to.
To the new year.
:{>
And may the Force be with you, always.

Returning after a stupidly long Hiatus.
Posted 9 years agoSo. It's past midnight, which means my brain's not as fresh as it will be in the morning. That said, I am back, and will be posting some recent work over the next day or so as well as giving a better description to my absence.
Rock on all you groovy people's.
:{>
P.S., 6k submissions took a long while to trawl through. Well worth it though.

Four of Forty (Rant)
Posted 11 years agoDisclaimer: I avoid writing journals not because I don't like writing them, but being a stay at home dad I have very little to actually say. That said, this writing is just a vent. I need to get it down, I need to let it out.
Friday was my 30th birthday. I didn't want anything big, no surprise party or paintball game or anything like that. I just wanted to relax. My sister decided she would take over my proper party and asked me to give her the names of some people to invite - seven in the end - to a 'thing' on Saturday. That was two months ago, and all confirmed.
Now, I am a bit of a social person, and I had built up quite the collection of friends and acquaintances (and a couple of enemies). So I decided that I would head to the pub on the Thursday before my birthday and invite everyone I knew to be within a days drive; this turned out to be well over thirty people. I sent the invites a fortnight prior, had several people confirm and only a couple say they couldn't make it.
So yeah, come Thursday night I'm sitting on a barstool, it's an hour after The invite said and two since I turned up. I was staring at my third pint and fourth coaster-come-confetti when FINALLY someone shows. We sit and chat about old times before a second person turns up an hour or so later. That was it. Midnight arrived and the four of us (boyfriend of the first to arrive also showed) decided to call it a night. Six hours I waited, but at least the live band was good.
Friday was average; an incredibly screamy one year old dashed the possibility of having a headache-free birthday. But he's One. I can't fault him for being pissed that his body hates him for pushing teeth through skin and the frustration of being strong enough to stand but not coordinated enough to walk. I was also informed late that afternoon that Saturday required Steampunk costumes. Now, I already have steampunk stuff coming outta my ears, but my partner, not so much. The last few hours of shopping hours were spent with us shooting from store to store - baby in tow - trying to find a dress she likes. No luck. With stores closing and my headache having evolved into a Migraine we head home.
Saturday. Saturday destroyed me. I turned up to the gathering in my steampunk gear, my lady in her last-minute attempt and my son in a groovy little vest and dress pants; everything else pulled off in the car and I was happy to let it stay there than risk another screamy day. My mother, father and sister were there - and in costume no less - but my friends? My good friends who were the people I was really looking forward to seeing? The people whom I didn't hesitate saying 'these are the people I want to see on my birthday? There were two. Neither were in costume; not a requirement, but I know both of them had enough stuff to actually pull it off even half-assed.
To my family's credit, nobody went off on the usual tangent of "what are you doing with your life" or any of that same old crap. And it was an okay soirée. My sister even organised with quite a few Facebook friends to make a video congratulating me on my 30th. She even found my 6th grade teacher from when I was in the US 19 years back and had her film a bit. I know my family love me, and I am grateful for the effort they all put in, but I just feel a bit let down.
Four of forty. That's how many showed up in total between two parties. Four. I can't help but think that somehow I have burned more bridges than I was aware of, have lost friends without realising it. And thus come the thoughts of why. I just wonder why people didn't show up. And I know I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, in fact I think knowing that is making the battle in my mind far far worse. I'll get over it eventually, it just hurts.

The Fantastical Creations of Dr. Ted
Posted 12 years agoA few years back I was taking part in a Role Playing game of my friend's devising, called Fate; this particular campaign seeing me play as the 'mad scientist' Dr. Ted. Dr. Ted was in fact a sorcerer, though his knowledge of medicine and biology was phenomenal. His method of casting was somewhat unorthodox; having bound various creatures to marbles, he would throw the glass spheres against the ground causing the bindings to be broken and the creature to be summoned at that point.
As he was useless in a fistfight, it became necessary for him to carry his marbles around while grouped with the somewhat trigger happy crowd he happened to be dragged across the universe with. Screams of "I've lost my marbles!" We're frequent, with the average passer-by unaware of the grave danger that particular phrase entailed.
The creatures linked to this description were all created with the sole purpose of being used in the campaign, and although some were used quite often, others were not.
Enjoy.

Another Day Has Dawned
Posted 12 years agoHappy New Year all you groovy furs out there. May the gods smile upon you, granting fun and sexy times throughout the new year and beyond.
Be awesome, rock on, and stay groovy.
:{>
Be awesome, rock on, and stay groovy.
:{>
Start it off with a bang!
Posted 12 years agoI've had this account for a while now, yet its only been in the last month that I've actually bothered with it. Silly I know, but that's what you get when your insane.
So as a long overdue icebreaker, I thought I'd post something pinched from a friends journal. Lucky, you are pretty much the reason I've actually started posting stuff on here, so here's to you. :{>
Scratchings on the Wall
Stolen from zanner via luckychance02
When was the last time you cried? Watching Les Miserables on opening day.
Have you ever faked sick? Yep. Swallowed a whole cigarette to make it look real then asked to go home before throwing up on my boss' shoes.
What was the last lie you said? These meatballs are delicious (when you're staying with someone a few thousand miles from home, you don't insult their cooking)
Have you ever cried during a movie? Only a few times, the most recent being Les Miserables.
Have you ever danced in the rain? Yes
Have you ever been drunk? Not physically possible/practical. Stupid genetic disorder manifesting in high tolerance of drugs.
What is your full name? Ben Smith Whatley.
What is your blood-type? I should probably find that out at some point. Having lived in the UK for a while during a certain time I'm not allowed to give blood, so its never really come up.
Have you ever been in a car accident? Yes. And I still maintain it wasn't my fault.
How old were you when you received your first kiss? 13, and I remember it well.
Who was your first kiss? Beth. I have fond memories of when we were together. Good times.
Have you ever had an online relationship? Technically yes.
Have you ever been rejected by a crush? Multiple times.
What is your favorite sport to play? Kayaking, though soccer and volleyball come close.
Have you ever made a prank phone call? Maybe once, a long time ago.
Is there anything that you have done that you regret? Move to Canberra. Most if not all of my problems in life stem from that decision, and I would go back to change it because although its made me who I am today, I'm not happy with who I've become. Time machine? Yes please.
What do you want to be when you grow up? I have no intents of Growing Up. However, if one requires an answer then CGI Rigger.
What is your political persuasion? I vote for the lesser of two evils.
Do you believe in g-d? My beliefs are a little more... Pratchettarian.
Do you believe in love at first sight? I am a romantic at heart, but through my life I have never witnessed such a thing. So, alas, no I don't.
Do you believe in karma? Unfortunately yes. I'm paying for stuff that I've done, and stuff I will do. It had just better be worth it in the end or some deity's gonna get a damn good beating when I kick the bucket.
Who was your first crush? Celebrity crush= Cameron Diaz, RL Crush= Cassiopoeia Galfas
Who do you have a crush on? On this site? In the world? Be more specific! Otherwise, Denisse Valenzuela. I don't have a chance in hell.
How would you describe yourself? I have sat staring at this question for a while now, and if I were to completely truthful, I am a mask. My real self is pushed out of sight where no one can see, replaced with a form that is acceptable to others. The hidden side is not malevolent, just odd; more odd than even a Fur could handle (trust me on this).
What are you afraid of? Above all else needles. Second to that; rejection and bottomless ocean.
What does your screen name mean? The most neutral colour in the world, able to blend with pretty much anything. Also the colour of pre iMac computers.
What person do you trust the most? Hah, trust. If I have to give an answer, probably Kitten. She knows more about me than anyone else alive with the possible exception of my parents.
Who was your first boyfriend/girlfriend? Beth Loiselle.
What is the best compliment you have ever received? "If you didn't feel like my brother I'd sleep with you" - big crush I had on a girl at Uni.
What is the meanest thing anyone has said about you? "If you didn't feel like my brother I'd sleep with you"
What is the longest crush/relationship you have had? 5 year relationship.
What is your greatest strength? Dogged determination. It will get done dammit come hell or high water.
What is your greatest weakness? I cannot stand Bullies. This gets me into more trouble than anything else; I have already quit two reasonable jobs because of this (management)
What is your perfect pizza? Standard dough with a cheesy crust; BBQ base; mozzarella and aged cheddar mix; caramelised onions, mushroom and bacon; diced chicken.
What is your first thought when waking up in the morning? Too early. Five more minutes
What is your first thought before you go to bed? First thought; damn blankets are tangled again...
What college do you want to/did go to? Australian National University, where I completed a Bachelors with honours in Photomedia.
Do you get along with your family? For the most part, Christmas is always a tad intense; glad I'm on another continent for it.
Do you play any instruments? Learning Electric Bass and Slide guitar, used to play Clarinet.
What kind of music do you like? Blues, 70s rock, pretty much anything bar Gangsta Rap.
Would you ever get a tattoo? Yes, I have two; one on each wrist. Left is a Bear Paw, right is :{>
How many piercings do you have? None
Who makes you laugh? Schadenfreude is a bitch, so pretty much everyone. However Billy Connolly, Eddie Izzard, Steve Martin and Monty Python top the list.
Who would you want to be tied to for 24hours? What an odd question. It depends on how we'd be tied ;p
Have you ever seen a dead body? Yes. And do not care to again.
Do you have a celebrity crush? Kate Winslett
What is one thing scientists should invent? Fusion Engine.
Have you ever broken a bone? Yep. Skull cracked, Patella shattered and broke a big toe bone on my right foot when I dropped a car on it.
What happens after you die? Things I cannot possibly describe, but eventually reincarnation is in the cards.
Do you watch or read the news? Sometimes, it generally gets too depressing so I change channel.
What stereotype would you label yourself as being? Berserker trapped in a nerds body. Incredible Hulk style.
Would your friends agree with that stereotype label? Yep. Especially those that have seen me annoyed. You wouldn't like me when I'm annoyed...
If you could change your name, what would you change it to? Reginald. Such a wonderfully upperclass name.
If you could go back in time to one point in your life, what point would you choose? August 22 1995. We were flying from Australia to the US. That night my sister almost dies of suffocation, so I would help prevent that. Afterwards I make lots of bad decisions, that I feel I'd be a better person if I'd never made them.
If you could change anything about yourself, what would you change? Lose weight and possibly get a lobotomy.
Have you ever gone skinny dipping? Yes
Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves? Yes, but its a very rare occurrence.
What do you want your friends to think about you? Good listener, hard worker friendly and good hugs.
Have you ever bitten someone? Yes. Who where and why are my little secret.
Have you ever stolen anything? Yes, I have quite the nefarious past.
Do you make wishes on shooting stars? Yep, even though they never come true I still do.
If you could go back and change one day, what would it be? I said one sentence one night that changed my life for the worse. I would not say it.
Do you remember your dreams? I don't dream. Nightmares happen occasionally and I remember those in vivid detail. It's a long story.
Have you ever been in love? Unfortunately yes
Are you a morning person or a night person? Very much a night.

Do you say meaner things to your friends or your enemies? Meaner to my friends, in jest.
Have you ever cheated on your bf/gf? No comment.

Have you ever written a love letter? Yes
Have you ever attempted suicide? I tried to hang myself but the crossbeam broke.
Have you ever been in a fistfight? When I was younger.
Do you have any hidden talents? Plenty, but people have to ask really nice to see them.
What is one thing you want me to know about you? You? Who is you? The Internet? Do I really want the Internet to know anything about me not already listed? Okay, obscure... obscure... I know; I once was in a downhill skiing competition for high school and went down the run in boar dies and a Hawaiian shirt to get the psychological advantage. It worked.
Do you usually prefer books or movies? Books as they enable my uncontrollable imagination to have a little more free reign.
Who is your favorite person to talk to? Kitten; there is nothing hidden, no secret agendas, just chatting.
Would you ever have sex before marriage? Yep, and I plan to keep doing so.
Who do you talk to most on the phone? Parents. Everything else is texting.
Do you prefer British or American spelling of words? British, or course.
Have you ever gotten detention? Yes. A few times, mostly for being a smart arse.

Have you ever been on a diet? Yes
Would you ever date someone younger than you? Yes.
Is your best friend a virgin? No

Have you ever cut yourself on purpose? No
Have you ever wanted to murder someone? Wanted to, only once. Thought about? Often
Have you ever hated someone? Unfortunately yes.
Do you prefer talking on the phone or online? Online allows video much easier then on the phone, and I like to see people I'm talking to.
Do you consider yourself popular? No, but I consider myself well known. Lets call it infamy.
Would you ever tell the person you have a crush on that you like them? Did once, never again.
Have you ever had a crush on an enemy? Yes. It was very confusing.
Have you ever had a crush on a best friend? Yes, but she's married.
What is your favorite book? The Lost Thing
Do you have a collection of anything? Collection; not exactly. I have lots of stuff, but no real collection.
Are you happy with the person you are becoming? The person I am; no. The person I'm becoming is better, but still not happy.
Are you a different person now then you were 5 years ago? Yes
What do you see yourself as being in 5 years from now? This is a loaded question, as hopes versus reality are different. Where I hope to see myself is working for a CGFX company as a Rigger. Where I realistically see myself is going from shitty job to shitty job.
Are you happy with the life you have? No. Gimme that time machine.
So as a long overdue icebreaker, I thought I'd post something pinched from a friends journal. Lucky, you are pretty much the reason I've actually started posting stuff on here, so here's to you. :{>

Have you ever gotten detention? Yes. A few times, mostly for being a smart arse.
