My friend Poprock has two fursuit head spot open for commission and wants them filled. She does VERY good work and i would highly recommend her anytime.

Seems some little butthurt person is going around reporting some of my pictures because they violate the AUP in one form or another. While Given a description of the AUP and it talks nothing about poses or the like I will be taking some of the pictures down. If whoever is reporting these images wants to come forth and have a grown up discussion instead of just running and crying to the admins, I will be here.

P.S. This is to anyone that has a problem with my pictures. If you do not like what I post, then do not look at them.

Derp moment fixed. Thank you Firefox for remembering field inputs.

Well my FB account finally got disabled for "no real name". Just name a new one. Please add me at some point.

I know this is something that has been going on for a while but now it has gotten to the point that is bugs the hell out of me. What I am talking about is "One-sided Stories"

Most of these crop up in Journals here on FA and many posts on Facebook. It is my personal belief that when you give only one side of a situation you were a part of it is the same thing as lying to everyone who sees it. You are basically are just a pity whore and want attention on your in a positive light. No I am not directing this at one person but just the group in general knows as "Drama Whores".

These "Drama Whores" are the types that cause a situation to go bad in one form or another and then cry about it later. This is s habit that should not be promoted or rewarded yet it happens daily. Their friends and family stand right behind them and promote the behavior instead of making the person look in a mirror and see how fucked up they are. Even when all evidence points to them being fucked up.

I do my best to stay out of situation like this but when it happens to my friends I cannot help but try and look at all sides of what is going on. A lot of times I do understand why the "Drama Whore" is doing what they do. I do not like it one bit and I do not encourage it but I do understand. It is a weird feeling having insight like that at times.

Honestly though. If you are the type of person to blindly support someone without knowing the full story, you are fooling yourself. If you were really their friend you would point out what is wrong with the situation and help them become a better person or "furson" if you will. If they are not willing to admit they fucked up and point fingers back at you, then they are not a good friend themselves.

Again, this journal is not directed at anyone. The simple fact I am posting this is just to get the bullshit off my chest. I do not want people asking me if it was directed at them.

So....this actually happened and gave me the O_o face.

I was washing the dishes and had one of my ferrets come over and start sniffing my leg. I lift it up and she pokes her head inside the leg. I lift my leg up and she crawls up the way up to my butt. It got my laughing so hard but thankfully she turned around and crawled right back out.

Still a weird feeling.

This journal may get a bit long but bare with me. There are going to be a lot of personal thoughts in this one.

Life has been insane for myself these last few months. Between job hunting, getting behind in bills, and a few other things.

First off, stress is something we experience everyday in one fashion or another. Whether we know it or not. There are also two different types of stress, the good tand the bad. Good stress usually leads to something happy in the end. Whether it is planning a wedding, going to school, or anything else that will have a positive outcome. Some people don't see it though and only think about that exact moment. They don't try and look further to see that all that hard work does pay off. What they also don't realize though is that that stress is adding to their ability to handle the bad stress when it comes around. As we go through life and age we slowly become more and more resilient to stress and learn how to deal with it from previous encounters.

When the bad stress does come around it usually is something that has no real good outcome. It can be thinks like a car breaking down, losing your job, or a loss in one fashion or another. These types of stress tend to be more severe and hard to handle, for anyone. Only after having experienced it before are we able to know how to handle it and even then the reaction is what you think it would be. Typical reaction include sadness, depression, crying, maybe even to the point of feeling sick. None of these are bad to feel while it is happening. These are normal and should not be avoided by some other means such as drinking, taking drugs, or doing reckless things. While things may not be what we expect we need to keep in mind though that it is not the end of the world. Yes, there has just been a major change in life but it is nothing that someone cannot handle. Cars can be replaced, jobs can be found, and memories of the good times live on.

We are never alone in life when things happen. We have family and we have friends. They are there for us to lean on, for us to talk to. They are there for support and are always willing to help. We cannot be afraid to reach out and talk to them, to get their insight and opinions of the situation. We tend to not look at all points of view and only look at ours. They can offer wisdom and knowledge that we may not have though of. We do not always think clearly in touch situations. Our brains tend to overload and we get stuck in one frame of mind.

We all deal with stress everyday. Sometimes a lot more of it hits and we break down. Just takes time to recover and get back into the swing of things.

Again, these are just my opinions and I do not expect people to think as I do. Good input is encouraged though and anything negative will be deleted.

First off let me Thank everyone who did ask around for a room for me. One has been located and set up. Thank you all again.

Now onto what is the real topic.

Something actually got me thinking about this community a bit more. Not FA, but furries in general.

Someone I know posted up a video on Youtube that is of her Kigurumi character that is a Panda. She wearing a black and white zentai like suit that has no fur. The mask itself is is very panda looking. Yet some little jerk-off thought it would be smart to complain about how the word "fursuit" and "furry" should of been removed from the tags as it was not how most of us picture a fursuit.

I can understand the reasoning to a degree, but in the end I keep questioning "why?"

Why does it matter if the suit actually has fur or not. Some people don't like a traditional fursuit but to me anything that is a suit of a furry characters can be labeled as a fursuit. Who cares if it doesn't have the fake fur? Seriously. This is how she wants to express herself and we should respect that.

I guess I am looking for more input though. What do you all consider to be a "fursuit"? Does it need fur? Please tell me your thoughts on this subject.

Once again Anthrocon is coming up and I am in a bit of a bind. While I can afford to go I have not had time to look for a room. Now is that time. I am putting this out there in hopes of finding a room or 2. Would be nice to have 1 room for two people but 2 separate rooms are fine as well. Beggars cannot be choosers at this point.

If anyone knows someone with some free space in there room for 1-2 people and 2 suits it would be amazing. A bed is not needed, just enough room for a body or two and room for a couple of suits. So spread the word and I give you all my thanks for at least reading this.

Most of it seems correct.

So yeah. Worked outside today watching power line guys cut down old cable while I took care of the little traffic there was. I thought it was rather neat that that the more I work outside the more I see life coming back in this nice weather.

Today I saw my first frog of the season. He went hopping across the road and stopped in the tire marks of a car that had just past. I walked over and gave him a small nudge with my boot and he got to the other side with safety. I did get a good chuckle out of watching how he bounded over a set of rail road tracks. No idea why I found it amusing but it was.

Once home  LuckyChance02 and I got outside and raked up some dead leaves around where there is already flowers in full bloom. Clear the area to let more sun hit the soil and hopefully bring about more beautiful plants.

Well I have had Tiffany for a while now and already the feet are falling apart. I think I am going to be needing new ones, and soon. These are not outdoor feet, not sure if I had requested they were at the time. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knew of good makers that had spots available for just feet and MAYBE hands if I like how they do the design.

I know I don't make journals often but I think this is something that needs to be put out there. While most of us sit around and browse for porn, watch music videos, listen to music, or look at ANYTHING that has been copied to another sight, think about what it would be like if SOPA/PIPA was allowed to pass. You could not enjoy your favorite music, movies, TV shows, or games.

I am putting a link up that is one small step to helping to fight against SOPA/PIPA and only requires 4 small pieces of information for you, the internet user. Just think about how you have that video on youtube that uses a famous song to add emotion or for laughs. Go to the link and add your name. Please.

We are getting ready to head down to FF in a bit, after a bit of packing. originally I was only going to bring the one suit but  djravi is missing her suit so I am letting her use Tiffany as a partial. Seems to be a bit big on her but it will work. I however will still be doing a ton of suiting inside Chainer and hope to see a lot of people I know from here an Facebook.

Should be an interesting drive. First down to Pittsfield, Mass. to pick up a costume for someone then one over to Cromwell to get all set up until Sunday evening when we take off and head back home.

So recently I have had it in my mind to try and make my own body suit, Nothing fancy but something that is a bit more form fitting. I know the type of material I want to use but I have no idea where to order it from.

And that is where I am stuck. I have been looking online with no luck. I am looking for a stretchy type fur kinda like the same stuff  Winfox uses for her suits. I have asked her and she buys her stuff local and really couldn't help me.

Does anyone out there know of this type of fabric or know of someone who knows where to buy this stuff? If so please send me a note or leave a comment below. Thank you. ^_^

1. You can ONLY answer Yes or No.

2. You are NOT ALLOWED to explain ANYTHING unless someone messages/comments you and asks. And believe me, the temptation to explain some of these will be overwhelming... things are not exactly as they seem.

3. It is harder than it looks, but NO explanations!!! You will want to... but don't!!!

As the title says my close friend  DJRavi needs a bit of help. FurFright is coming up quickly and she has no money right now. She wants to go badly and really only needs the room as a place to sleep and shower. Not much else. I know the no money thing is a bit of a turn off but she is a wonderful girl and very fun to talk to and to get to know.

If you think you can help out and just give her a spot on the floor to curl up on then leave either myself or her a message. Thank you all in advance.

Quiz here: http://www.signalpatterns.com/psych_central/


Calm

You rarely become irritated, generally accept people as they are, take things as they come, and feel relaxed in most situations.

You do not let a minor annoyance escalate to a confrontation. You don't regularly snap at those around you or fly off the handle with little provocation.

Friendly

You would rather hang out with others than spend time alone, and you'd far rather be doing something with your friends than just sitting around. You're happy in a crowded room, club, stadium, or auditorium.

You're not a private person who is ill at ease in a group; you don't view excessive socializing as a waste of time.

Optimistic

You are a "glass half-full" kind of person, always on the lookout for the silver lining. Your happiness is contagious, which is why others like to be around you.

You do not feel that the world is an intrinsically depressing place; you are not the kind of "realist" who thinks that only fools find joy in life.

Steady

You are a reasonable kind of person; no one would describe you as a loose cannon. Even when everyone around you is losing it, you can be counted on to keep your cool and offer calm guidance.

You do not regularly get bowled over by your emotions, nor do you make a point of showing everyone exactly what you're feeling.

Accessible

You're comfortable expressing yourself in words and actions, with no self-censorship. You believe that if someone doesn't like what they see it's not your problem, but theirs. A high score on the "accessible" trait suggests that you have a lot of friends, socialize often, and enjoy rap/hip-hop music.

You don't see the need to keep your thoughts to yourself, or to have a zone of privacy that encompasses only yourself and a small circle of friends and relatives.

Poised

You tend to feel at home wherever you find yourself, even in unfamiliar settings, with new people. It takes a lot to rattle you, and when rattled you recover quickly and gracefully.

You are usually not self-conscious or nervous when you're in an unfamiliar environment or with people you don't know.

Warm

You have a genuine interest in other people. You're a natural host, and are always thinking about how you can increase the happiness of those around you. When friends have problems or are in trouble, you're usually the first person they turn to for aid and comfort. Scoring high on the "warm" trait suggests that you are among those who enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about charitable work, helping others, and making the world a better place.

You don't always say exactly what you're thinking; you don't like the idea of causing anyone pain because of your criticism.

Understanding

You are willing to take the time to find out what's going on with other people, especially if they're in distress. You're a good listener, you don't criticize, and you offer unbiased, respectful, honest advice when it's requested. With a high score on the "understanding" trait, it is likely that you are enthusiastic about charitable work, helping others, and making the world a better place.

You don't feel the need to impose your standards on others or say things that, even though true, cause pain.

Empathetic

You are in touch with your own feelings, which helps put you in touch with the feelings of others.

You don't buy the logic that your happiness comes ahead of everyone else's because unless you're happy you're incapable of making anyone else happy.

Prudent

You look before you leap, think before you act, consider what you're about to say before you open your mouth to speak; that's why you rarely have to eat your words.

You usually don't get excited easily or blurt out the first thing that comes to mind without considering the consequences.

ATTENTION SKIERS AND SNOWBOARDERS!!!

Myself and some of the Vermont furries have discussed about hosting a ski & snowboard trip in Vermont this coming winter season. Mark your calendars for January 13th to 15th for the trip. We will be going to Okemo Mountain Resort in Ludlow, VT. Right now I'm getting a preliminary headcount to see how many are interested in going on the trip. So if you are interested, please comment below answering the following questions:

Are you interesting on going on the trip?
Do you ski or snowboard?
How experienced are you (beginner, intermediate, expert)?
Do you need ski or snowboard lessons?
Would you need lodging for the trip?
Which days (Jan 13th-15th) would you be skiing or snowboarding?
What will be your transportation method?
Do you have a fursuit?
Do you have any other preference for a mountain to ski or snowboard on?
and do you have any other comments to make?

I'll post more information (like prices and lodging) once I get an idea on how many people are interested.

I know I should of done this earlier but I was lazy. ANYWAY!

August 27th, which is a saturday, I will be hosting a VT furmeet in Rutland Vermont. I still have yet to pick a place to eat so any suggestions are welcome.

We will meet up around 2, have a nice lunch then head over to the Lazer tag place and play a few rounds.

Fursuits are welcome but with the enclosed space, low lighting, and lots of movement I would not recommend wearing one to play.

I will be posting up rates and such when I call the place tomorrow and get more details. but just to be on the safe side. BRING CASH!!!!!
