The axe man cometh
Posted 17 years agoHi friends,
due to the fact that I am not visiting this site nearly as much as I used to, I will be un-watching a few people in order to keep the submission count down for the rare times I do come by. Please take no offense if I axe you!

All is quiet
Posted 17 years agoI'm going to be visiting this site quite a bit less than I used to, at least for a couple of months. I'm fine, of course, just need to focus my attention on other things for a little while.
On Borrowed Time
Posted 17 years agoHi,
Not much to say right now, or at least I dare not try... I have no power at the moment and have only a flakey generator keeping me online.
Yeah, Ike kicked my power to the curb. It's been... 9 days? Really? Damn that sucks. Weekdays without power are passable, but WEEKENDS?
I wish I had cool air and hot meals again.

JULY 2008 NEVER FORGET
Posted 17 years agoI survived the FA server crash!
If only barely.
The site is still a little slow, I'm sure every fur and their dog is hitting it hard. I'm glad to have it back, pity it took a month, but hopefully it is now fairly crash proof.
See everyone around!

OBLIGATORY PAGEVIEW MILESTONE JOURNAL!
Posted 17 years agoHey, all the kool kids are doing it...
So! 200 Pageviews! 4 Watchers! It only took 5 months... >.>
Thats kinda slow, but maybe it not so bad, considering I never submit any actual works, and only look at others and occasionally comment. I can't help but wonder who the 200 people were? What did they think of my page? Of me?
Thanks to everyone who views this entry for stopping by my unknown little corner!

Envy
Posted 17 years agoEnvy is a terrible emotion. The average person has a lot of nice things. But they always want more.
I'm envious of people who are just born with the creative knack. They are able to write interesting stories or draw splendid works of art, and only while half paying attention to what they are working on. I don't draw, or write, but some people here are so prolific with thier works it is always amazing to me, that they have the ideas, the talent, and the time to create so much. I *do* have an engineering knack, so I'm able to do a lot of work and improvments in my own right, but it's a lot more boring than weaving new worlds and people with your pen.
I'm also envious of people who are able to find love with ease. That is another thing that eludes me.

Nothing going on here...
Posted 17 years agoBut my LJ has a few new entries. I don't post much on FA journal but if you want to know more about me check out the link below.
Participation
Posted 17 years agoThought I would take 10 seconds to 'kirbify' my icon as part of Dragoneer's kirbification initiative. You like?
...No? ...What do you mean it doesnt look like kirby!?
My first participation in icon meme.
(New icon brought to you by Paint.net 3.3... the poor mans photoshop)

Absorbing the furry culture
Posted 17 years agoA while back I decided I needed to break out of my shell and disrupt my routine, by being more active around FA. I'm happy to report that my campaign has been going well. I'm branching out into new areas and meeting new people. So far I've proofread stories, edited a photo or two, made an effort to give more comments and generally been friendly to everyone I converse with. I've watched more people which means more and more messages everytime I log in, like little presents waiting for me. So many people willing to share thier artwork, thier thoughts and dreams with everyone, for free. What other website has such a friendly and creative atmosphere? If you refreshed the homepage once a minute it would be different every time, which says a lot about the prolific nature of the furry community. Furries may be a diverse bunch, but still we all get along so well. It's somewhat remarkable that there are some people who dislike us. But I digress!
Anyway, if anyone needs any help with anything they are working on I am accepting requests. I enjoy giving constructive criticism or diving in to help. My offer stands as far as proofing any stories you have going, and maybe even some light photo editing, time permitting. Or if anyone has any questions for me whatsoever, I *LOVE* answering questions. Gold stars for originality! Or if you have one of those quizzy meme things post it for me!
Well, RL is calling, so I must tend to other things.
Hoping to meet you, in the flesh... I will remain your host:
Commander Xander.
*Hugs*

Pfft... blew it.
Posted 17 years agoWell, it was a good idea, anyway.
I was going to post a journal this morning and say that I had "Come to my senses" and was leaving the furry fandom forever. Take care of my neopets for me, whole nine yards. But... got too busy and forgot~
But no, once a furry, always a furry. Hope everyone had a good, fun, April Fools day!

Posted 18 years agoHi.
I wish I had something profound to say, but I don't.
I'm actually quite a bit boring. But anyways, I guess I'll tell a little about me while I'm here.
So... I live in TX,USA. It's safe to assume I'm a furry if I am on this website. But I'm a bit new to the world of fur, only really finding out about it within the past year. I'm in my 20's, and I currently attend college. I'm a bit of a computer maven.
I don't draw, or write stories, or sculpt, or animate... I guess you could say I'm not so much the creative type. But I do enjoy the fruits of others.
If you have any questions let me know, otherwise thats all I've got...
You can continue to read my journals over @ LJ. I update more often there, but most posts are pretty boring.
