Posted 14 years agoMy rebuilt cylinder head for my car comes in tomorrow, so hopefully I'll be back on the road this week! Being out of work for almost a month is not fun, especially when next month is going to hurt.
I WILL be reclaiming my old head and examining it for damage and wear, and making sure that the shop wasn't trying to pull a fast one on me. I'm a returning customer, so they shouldn't be trying to sell me what I don't need.

Every story has two sides.
Posted 14 years agoBut it seems like most people just got one.
If you've been hearing things about me that make me out to be some kind of demon, chances are it's only a half-truth. Yes, I did some pretty nasty things during my emotional breakdown, but the other party in question is not innocent either.
If you've heard things about me, come to me directly. Don't ask other people about it. Get the truth from the source, and not secondhand rumors, and I'll give you the whole truth. Those who have known me long before this happened should know me better than that.
Unlike SOME people, I can take care of my own shit. I'm an adult and can handle my own problems. I don't need others stepping in for me.

Posted 14 years agoIt sucks. Especially when it's been going on for months over various things.
This pretty much totally describes how I am right now: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y9.....2988919900.png
Just replace "Relationship" with "Friendship."

manathevixenCorvallis area furs: Movie night this weekend?
Posted 14 years agoSince Kat and I are stranded because the car needs a new head, why not make the most of it with a movie night?
Bring movies, games, whatever! We've got a good sized living room and even crash space for those who need it.
RULES: The walls are pretty thin, so after 10 PM we need to keep things on the quiet side. NO ALCOHOL, PLEASE!
EDIT: Since the tattoo party is on Saturday, we'll do this on Sunday night. Just show up around 4-5ish!

So many memories...
Posted 14 years agoI'm not one to hold grudges. I forgive and forget, often more quickly than most. I remember the good times, and let go of the bad. It's just who I am.
But lately, this hasn't been working out all that well for me. With so many regrets over the last month, and no way to make up for the mistakes I've made, it's really been weighing down on me. I'll naturally do everything in my power to right the wrongs I do, but in this situation, it just kept backfiring on me.
They say it's easiest to get over someone if you get rid of everything that reminds you of that person. For me, that just isn't possible, unless I sell everything I own, and move to a new location, and completely change my life. Nearly everything around me carries memories.
Lately, I've been looking back rather fondly on those memories, remembering all the good times we had. I can quickly list off exactly what happened when we were having great times, but it takes a lot of effort to remember the bad.
Unfortunately for her, she's been having a lot of ongoing problems not involving me, but this causes those negative feelings to remain in place for much longer. I've also been told that she's not one to let go of things for a while, and it took her three months before she could speak with another friend after a fight they had. Although it's much easier to get away from someone when they're on the internet, we know one another in real life, have many of the same friends, and attend the same meets. So while I've already forgiven her for anything she's done wrong, and already began to forget the bad things that have happened, it's all still very fresh for others.
Until more time passes, all I can do is just try to keep myself occupied while conflicting thoughts and hopes run through my mind. Some close to her say that it's fully possible to start over after more time has passed, while others say there's no hope at all. Only time will tell who is right. Until then, I'll need to find a way to live with my regrets and distract myself from missing her so much.

Well, shit. Car's fucked. Maybe.
Posted 14 years agoI tried to change the water pump myself some time ago, and ended up putting everything back together because I didn't have the right equipment to remove the crank pulley. Apparently I messed up the cam timing, bumping it too far advanced, when I put it back together.
This resulted in detonation under load, but I was driving very softly anyway, so I could keep it under control. I had an appointment Thursday morning of last week to get the water pump replaced and reset the timing.
BUT.
The timing belt BROKE on Wednesday, leaving Kat and I to push the car home, with some help from various locals.
Fast forward to today and the shop finally gets to my car, they get the new pump in and belt on, but there's zero compression.
So, something's really fucked up in the engine. Whether it's blown pistons or valves, I don't know, but it's zero all around. I may either need a new head or an entire new engine.
So tomorrow, I'll be going down to talk to them, rip the head off, and see what it looks like underneath it. Hopefully it's not too bad, because this is putting us under serious financial strain. All the bills are paid for this month, and we have enough food, but without the car, we can't even get to work, so next month's checks are going to be pretty small, again.
Edit: ... Or, as my friend
diamondwulf suggested, it could be something as stupid simple as the cam being turned 180*. Which totally makes sense.

Posted 14 years agoI finally sold my first car, a 1991 Ford Tempo, for $750. Last month's paychecks sucked, and I needed to sell the car to pay back my mother-in-law the $300 we borrowed to pay the bills, as well as pay for some repairs for my other car, a 1996 Ford Aspire.
But as soon as I sold the Tempo, the Aspire was getting worse, and needed immediate attention. I ended up missing work over the last weekend because of parts coming in late causing me to miss an appointment. But on Monday, I got my CV axles replaced at the cost of about $270.
I've been battling a coolant leak for a while now, and got the lower hose to stop dripping. But the water pump started leaking pretty bad. However, as long as I topped off the coolant before I drive, I could get to work and back. I tried to replace the pump myself, but I discovered I needed more tools than what I had, and it's too big of a job to get away with at my apartment (you're not supposed to work on your cars, but I do anyway). I apparently didn't set the cam gear back right, and it was slightly off, resulting in detonation under load. It was liveable, as long as I drive really softly.
But yesterday, it just up and quit on me, giving me a trouble code for the camshaft position sensor. We had to get pushed most of the way back to Lebanon, and pushed it ourselves a lot of the way to the local shop, where I was already going to have the water pump replaced. Again, we're missing work, and I'd love to have the Tempo back right now... ><
So, we're stuck at home until the car is fixed, and no word yet as to when it'll be ready, since the shop is pretty busy.

Just to make things ABSOLUTELY clear.
Posted 14 years agoSince I've already been called an asshole on Skype about a matter I have no part in, I decided to bring this out in the open. Obviously, no names are being used, since only those who already know what's going on need to know.
My fursuit maker has some personal problems with my former friend. This is totally unrelated to me. It has to do with things my former friend has done herself and my fursuit maker's ex-mate's actions. I am not responsible for the actions of my fursuit maker.
Please, do NOT come to me and insult me over matters that I have no part in.

Petition to Restore Protections for Endangered Wolves
Posted 14 years agohttp://www.change.org/petitions/res.....angered-wolves
I finally got the motivation to get up and actually make the petition to repeal a budget rider that stripped wolves of their Endangered status and has allowed wolves to be hunted and killed in places like Idaho and Montana.
Please sign it and spread the word!

I just want to be forgiven...
Posted 14 years ago... for the simple fact that I'm human, and I had a full-blown mental breakdown. Yes, I did a lot of terrible things, but I wasn't me. Many of the things I did were things I would NEVER, EVER do, and will never do again.
I can understand if those involved no longer want to be friends. I don't really blame them. But what I would really like is to just hear from them that they understand what I went through, understand that I totally lost control, and forgive me for my mistakes.
I'm not one to hold grudges. I forgive people for their wrongs. I've completely forgiven my old friend for anything she's ever done wrong to me, and I'd at least like the same in return. When my ex-fiancee ended our two-year relationship, and informed me she wasn't really serious about it, I was devastated. But we still talked about things, what went wrong, what we felt, and we walked away as friends.
When I realized what happened, I was overcome with intense feelings of guilt and regret, as the full weight of the situation bore down on me. Those who are still my friends I've already talked to about my breakdown, what led to it, and how absolutely horrible I feel. Otherwise, I talked about it in my other journal.
I sincerely hope that time can heal what has happened, but for one of you, I fear that no amount of time will ever heal the pain I've caused you. I offer you my deepest and most sincere apologies, and hope you know that I don't bear any ill will towards you, and understand fully if we can never be friends again. All I ask is that you let me know if you can forgive me.

It's hard to forget about someone...
Posted 14 years ago... When everything around you carries a memory.
I've had a full-blown breakdown. And I need help...
Posted 14 years ago;_;
I snapped.
Posted 14 years agoFor three months, I spent my life in a fantasy world, completely intoxicated by raw emotions. I met someone, and fell deeply in love. It was the happiest time of my life. But it just wasn't real. It nearly ended badly, when both her and my wife were about to leave me, but I snapped awake and realized what I've done.
For the next three months, my emotions swung wildly back and forth, between realizing how I've abandoned my wife to chase after someone that isn't interested, and willing to give anything to be with her.
At the end of those months, I just wanted it to end. I was tired of swinging back and forth, trapped on a ride I didn't want to be on. Trapping those around me on that same ride. I just wanted it to be over.
But I didn't want it to end this way.
Somehow, somewhere, I started growing unstable. I lashed out for stupid reasons. I blamed others for my own troubles. And from there, it all fell out of control. In some form of rage, the love I had for her turned to hate. Hatred of everything I've done, of everything I was doing. Hatred of my instability. I just wanted it to fucking end. In the back of my mind I was looking for reasons to fight. Something to give me an excuse to release my frustrations. Something to just stop this vicious cycle.
And in that rage, I hurt everyone around me. Nobody deserved any of it. My actions were uncalled for, wrong, and hurtful. I have done irreparable damage to those I cared most about. I snapped.
... I could have written a chapter into a book with what was going through my mind half an hour ago, when I was overcome by tears, nearly vomiting from everything just overwhelming me at once. My wife and I were watching a movie, and I couldn't help but remember cuddling with my old friend. I missed her warmth, softness, and the wonderful sense of comfort I'd get just by being near her. And then I though, "What the fuck have I done?" I took the best friendship I ever had, and I destroyed it in some form of insane rage. Then I thought about how I "loved" her, even though her heart belongs to another, and that I hold my wife's heart in my hands. And I wondered how the fuck can I get her out of my mind.
For nearly seven months, this unhealthy obsession consumed me, and my subconscious took over and ended it for me, in the worst way imaginable.
To everyone involved, and those who know those involved, I'm deeply sorry. I can't change what I've done. I've caused nothing but pain to you all.
So it's best that I leave.
No internet, no IMs, no FA, no meets... Nothing. I'll leave you all alone. Until my emotions finally settle down, I should just stay the fuck away from everyone before I hurt anyone else further.

Posted 14 years agoTAGGED! 11 questions meme!
Posted 14 years agoTagged by 
barkwoof XD
My questions to YOU are:
1.) Steak or Lobster?
I freakin' loves me a steak, but I rarely ever have lobster, so I'd probably go for the seafood if given the choice. XD But if I'm buying, steak for sure. FUCKIN' RARE, BABY.
2.) What's your favorite idea? (Mine is being creative!) *If you get this reference, then you win
DEEEAAAAATH *eats a pie made from internal organs* XD
But I'd have to say the idea that the Earth does not belong to us, but that we belong to the Earth.
3.) What's the weirdest dream you've had? (Or weirdest sex dream? :B)
I'd have to say the weirdest part of a dream I've ever had involved 6 or 7 winged Spider-Mans slowly flying by and waving at me in unison. I consciously said aloud in my dream, "Now that's the weirdest thing I've ever seen."
4.) What's your favorite animal?
Wolves, of course. XD
5.) What's your favorite kind of food (Italian, Indian, Mexican, etc)?
I actually don't think I can pin down a favorite kind. Having worked in foodservice for nearly a decade, I've been around a ton of different types and appreciate all of their distinct flavors.
6.) What's your favorite T.V. show?
I don't watch TV! XD
7.) Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?
Oh, was that the last one..? Sorry.
8.) What kind of chocolate do you like best?
I've really started liking dark chocolate. But my absolute favorite is chocolate with pieces of bacon in it.
9.) CAN YOU SEE ALL THE COLORS?!
THE COLORS, DUKE, THE COLORS!!!!
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon,
or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
10.) Can you SING?
Not very well. XD
11.) Can you DANCE?
Maybe if I tried. lol

Idea. Would anyone buy art fingerboards? (Mini-skateboards)
Posted 14 years ago
theburningdonut already makes some awesome art stakeboards, but I was curious to see if anyone would be interested in fingerboards with furry-themed sketches. :)I'd be getting high-quality, handmade fingerboards, made from actual wood, so they literally are a mini skateboard, unlike the cheap plastic Tech Decks.
Something like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Complete-Wo.....item3a6aaa7bf5

ALL OREGON FURS: READ NOW!
Posted 14 years agoI just got this in my email inbox:
If there ever was a time to get fired up, this is it.
Following the lead of more than a dozen states across the country, anti-choice extremists have filed a so-called “personhood” amendment to the Oregon Constitution that would have far-reaching consequences for women and families across the state. Our opponents have turned in the first 1,000 signatures toward placing this dangerous, divisive measure on the November 2012 ballot.
As written, Initiative Petition 22 would prohibit abortion services or any other “action” that denies “life” to a “person.” The proposal defines “person” to include all human beings, “at every stage of biological development, including fertilization.” The only exception is for “death-penalty murderers.”
If passed, IP 22 would:
Impose an absolute ban on abortion, even in cases of rape and incest.
Deny access to many birth control services and supplies, including birth control pills.
Restrict the availability of certain fertility and miscarriage treatments.
Prohibit the donation of fertilized eggs for stem cell research.
Limit end-of-life options, undermining Oregon’s Death with Dignity laws.
Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon is fighting on every front to keep anti-choice language out of the Oregon Constitution. We need your help. Our legal team is filing challenges in the Oregon Supreme Court to make sure that voters have accurate information about IP 22, and we are already putting a campaign in place to defeat this measure should it make the ballot.
Your donation TODAY is critical to our efforts. Every dollar goes toward fighting to preserve a woman’s right to choose here in Oregon. Please, click here to keep us on the frontlines in the fight of our lives.
Tell everyone you know to avoid signing IP22! This is an outright assault on women's rights, our freedom to make our own choices, and a direct violation of the United States Constitution. There is no reason for this petition beyond religiously motivated beliefs which have absolutely no place in our government.
STOP INITIATIVE PETITION 22 NOW!

♫ I won't fight another battle, I won't take this anymore
Posted 14 years agoLived in a nightmare never woke up
Searched for peace without result
Waited for changes that never came
Just another war and I got the blame
I don't wanna live in your cold world
I don't wanna hear your evil words
Find another one who plays your game
I'm sure everything will be the same
I won't fight another battle
I won't take this anymore
I won't give you any reasons
To not walk out through that door
No moments left of calm silence here
My hope is long gone don't you come near
No more strength to argue again
To your disappointment I won't show any fear
I don't wanna live in your cold world
I don't wanna hear your evil words
Find another one who plays your game
I'm sure everything will be the same
I won't fight another battle
I won't take this anymore
I won't give you any reasons
To not walk out through that door...

Well, any last hopes I had of ever having a relationship with Nighty died yesterday. We ended up talking about some stuff yesterday, and of course, whenever that happens, both of us have that push first reaction, and we end up bickering and saying things we don't really mean.
After that, I came to realize a few things. Even though I swore up and down that I knew we could have a lasting relationship, it just won't work out with us both being dominant. One of us would have to give, and we'd probably end up in a really nasty fight before one of us submits to the other. Even though she's everything I've ever been attracted to, and even though I match nearly all of her requirements for a mate, it just wouldn't work out because we'd clash. In bed, sure, we both fantasize about being dominated, but in a relationship, we'd go crazy.
It's been nearly six months since it all began. I fell in love with her the day I met her, and I thought she was the one. I was only half right; she's the perfect girl for me, but I'm not the one for her. For the first three months, I was stuck in a daydream, half-consciously courting her, and treating her just like I would a potential mate. At first, she was responding, which only fed the fire. After the novelty wore off, she no longer held interest, but by that time my head was so far up in the clouds that it didn't matter. Nothing really mattered. Just as long as I was around her, I didn't care about anything else, not even my own wife. And it took the threat of Nighty cutting off our friendship to get me to wake up out of that.
I spent a good while kicking myself in the ass for the crap I pulled, and mulled over the events that passed. Not only was I about an hour away from killing my marriage, but I also nearly killed the best friendship I've ever had.
Those first three months held some of the happiest times of my life. Especially the first time I brought her over for dinner and a movie, I was laying my head on her chest, and could hear her heartbeat. Add her arm over my shoulder, and I was in paradise. The world could have ended and I wouldn't have cared. Another day we were laying down on my couch, cuddling, and as my arms were around her, she was holding onto my arms. I ended up using my toes to work my laptop because I didn't want her to let go of me. During that time, all of my worries, stresses, frustrations, etc. were gone. I was truly happy. I didn't want that to end. But, it was at the expense of those around me.
The next three months have been rather rough. I'd go from accepting that she doesn't want me, to willing to give everything I have to be with her, then fall into depression because I can't, and I'd just go through this cycle over and over and over. I grew tired of it. I wanted it to end. But my heart just kept holding on to any last shred of hope, any sign at all that maybe someday we could be together. I fought and fought to try to find a way to get myself to let her go without saying goodbye. I promised that I wouldn't be another repeat of her past, and cut ties because she won't be with me. I refuse to break that promise.
Slowly, my hopes started falling, one by one, usually taking her and I fighting to get rid of, and me breaking down in tears. Until yesterday, I only had one last hope- Time. I thought that maybe in time, she'd realize how much I care about her, that I fit all of her criteria for a mate, that she's the perfect match for me. That last hope fell when I realized its foundation was false. No amount of time will fix the problem that we'd just clash because we're both very dominant.
Now, all that's left is that I still love her. She's an amazing young woman, extremely attractive, kind, very patient, and an extremely talented artist. I'm very lucky to be able to call her my friend. My best friend. The one I know I can turn to if I need support, someone to talk to, or just to waste time with.
Now, it's time to rebuild. I need to reclaim my heart and give it back to the one that actually wants it. I need to reconnect with my mate, and restore what we had before. Nighty will always have a special place in my heart, and will always hold my affections, but it's getting too tiring allowing my entire heart to run away to her. I'm not going to fight any more battles. From now on, my heart is on a leash. TAKE IT, BITCH! :P
