General | Posted 7 years agoHey there watchers! Hopefully you all had a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year to you all!
Figure I go ahead and write another update journal here for those wondering what has been up with me!
To put it forward. Mostly just work and sleep and repeat and etc etc. But work in general has been very well since starting there six months ago. Personal life has been making slow recoveries, but no signs of loosing stability. Financial wise, Greatly recovering, no signs of downfall.
Overall things have been rather quiet for me since I came back home from Georgia. Been taking day by day to work on myself and to just better myself overall as a person. So not really much to update lifewise to you all. But I just want to tell you all that I'm doing just alright. No bad news to report or anything.
And if anyone is interested. I started doing Twitch streaming, which I do usually on Friday's through Sundays at 6PM PST! So if you ever have the free time to check out a show. The link is right here
https://www.twitch.tv/socalshepherd
I'm also making plans to attend AC this year. Something I keep putting on the backburner for too long! Along with plans to go to MFF
That's pretty much all I gotta say to everyone! Hope you all have been well yourselves!

UPDATE: 8/12/18
General | Posted 7 years ago(I'm pretty crappy when it comes to frequently updating this dusty journal.)
Hello and good day to whoever is concerns to read this journal!
I figured it would be ideal to break the silence on my profile here as life obviously got in the way to do so to update my FA promptly.
It's been about a solid 3 months since I moved back home to Southern California and things for myself have been improving for the better. Within a month off, I've been able to secure a pretty well paying job at a sheet metal shop in LA that specializes in manufacturing parts for major aircraft companies. It's been a lot of hours working, but it's been doing me a lot of good for myself despite from working the shitty food service jobs that I've been working for when I was living in Georgia for the past 5 years. The move for sure did me a lot of good so far, yet I find it difficult still to find a solid set of friends from the ones I developed living back in the South. All in good time. But the pro of working the long hours is the ability to acuminate a solid savings in case shit ever hits the fan. So it's nice to have that kind of security for once.
With the extra income. you might expect a bit more content on my FA over time. But the main goal is shooting down the debt from the past 5 years in hopes for a more solid score and use that as a advantage to get a place of my own out here in California.
A lot has been crossing my mind. the 5 years living out on my own has done me a lot of good for myself as a person. Yet I still this numbness from the mistakes I have done while out on my own. But I'm doing my overall best to leave what is in the past in the past and look forward to get myself a much more secure future for myself.
for the record. Things have been well. But there is always room for them to get better. No point in rushing things, it will only cause a lot more damage than I have done for the duration of my time in the south. It's a new chapter, and I prefer not to make too many mistakes doing so.
To those from Atlanta reading this. I'll come back for FWA
Be honest I miss you all. And I look forward to coming back.
Be easy and take care of yourselves.
With love

Post FWA: 1 Month Later
General | Posted 7 years agoI wasn't able to do a post FWA journal since my other computer craped out on me. So a month late is better than never.
Despite all of the major fears and negative vibes I was catching before FWA this year. I'm honestly glad I decided to after all. It was really great to see all of my friends old and new since I've gone to the con since 2014. It was much more refreshing since I was able to see some new pals I met during TFF earlier this year. I was able to put aside a personal grudge I held against someone this year at the con. This FWA has been stellar and I cannot wait to return next year for 2019.
As I write this a month later. Post con has not been kind to me sadly.
A few weeks later. Me and my fiancé have decided to end our relationship after 5 years. As the time went on. I decided to call it an end as I don't want this to spiral much more downward to something more nasty. I got over the fact our relationship is over. But It was for the best not to continue to go on. As of this journal. I will be moving back home to Southern California. 5 years in Atlanta has been great while it lasted. I met so many good people along with building some good work experience as I lived here that I will gladly be taking back with me to the west.
By the time I go back home to California. I'm going to take an entire month to catch up with family and friends I left behind 5 years ago in what I thought would of been a great new life. I will also be focusing on getting my credit repaired from the scenarios I faced to stay afloat and a roof over my head while I lived in Atlanta. I'm more than likely going to be going back to school to learn a good trade and get my shit together once and for all.
Personally. I want to thank
He was basically one of the only few who looked out for me as things started to fall apart down here for me and slapped some sense when I was just about to give up.
I don't know what the hell will be the fate of me at this time. But I can only say I'll just have to find out.
SEE YOU ON THE WEST COAST FOLKS!

TFF 2018 Wrap Up
General | Posted 8 years agoAnother incredible weekend has come to a close my friends! And what way to spend it in Dallas for TFF 2018 and I got to say it's been one of the best I've been to in a while!
This was the first time I've stepped foot in Dallas. Along with the con I did get to go site seeing around the city along with making some new friends, seeing some old ones as well! Before the con it was a dreadful 2 weeks before making the trip. I've decided to leave the entirely crappy world of food service and decided to go and drive for Lyft full time to allow me a flexible schedule to hopefully startup a business of my own from home, along with hopefully building up a audience for YouTube. I'm quite nervous with this switch of methods of work, but I feel like I'm more cut up for better things than just be some tool for people to verbally abuse if their order wasn't right or they're just straight up having a complete shit day.
Least to say the most. Spending a whole week in Dallas was a much needed recharge from the real world. My original plan was ANE. But a majority of people tell me TFF was much more worth to check it out. So I jumped ship and went there. BEST DECISION EVER!
As of this journal. I still have my usual holes to climb out and I'm doing my best to get out of them with a smile on my face. Seeing everyone at TFF really made this something I'll remember for the rest of my life!
I will for sure being coming back next year for TFF. It's a very well run hotel and it's coming close to taking FWA as the 4th largest with TFF behind them!
I will keep you all updated as more time passes when my next con will be!
Until next time my friends!
Be easy!

Still Putting The Pieces Together
General | Posted 8 years agoGreetings everyone! I figured I go ahead and update this dusty journal as I update some things on my old steam account. (Yes! I sort of started getting into PC gaming to diverse myself from always playing PS4.)
I dunno if a few of you may remember an old post when I was evicted from my apartment a year ago. We finally managed to get a house away from the apartment life. It's a good step up from putting the pieces together and I also have been working a pretty decent restaurant job up in North Atlanta. So far things are starting to look up for the entire moment. But pieces from my self destructive behavior from 2 years ago are still being put back together. Currently with using public transportation it usually takes 3 to 4 hours to get to and back home from work which is putting a major strain on me to just try and get home.
Right now I'm attempting to put money aside to at least get another vehicle. The little gold Toyota did it's justice while the engine lasted. But learn from your own dumb mistakes I suppose.
While I have some debt on my record from the apartment. I decided that I'll most likely be completely done when it comes to conventions for the remainder of this year. I might try and swing for MFF this year but not completely confirmed. I want to least try and save up for get something cheap when it comes for a car. So far it's been a challenge but I'm doing whatever I can to try and get my life put back together from my stupid decisions after 2 years.
As those years passed. Few people have moved on to associate with me as for those who stayed by my side during those dark days. I want to personally thank you for whatever support you have given me. I'm doing everything in my current power to get everything back to what it was two years ago.

FWA 2017: One Week Later
General | Posted 8 years agoAnd so ends yet another exciting weekend of good times, catching up with old friends, acquainting myself with new faces along the mix of the past 5 days I've spent at the Marriot. I honestly have no words to describe this weekend. But it was one of the most amazing weekends I've ever had in the last 2 years.
I have managed to make a complete breakthrough this convention. That it has finally give me the motivation to finally get myself back up on my feet to do better for myself and move on from the darkness that had happened 2 years ago. Sure the damage has been done, yet it's not too late to go back and pick up the pieces. This weekend literately has showed how much people care and support me. I'm quite an extroverted person. Thanks to the amazing people I've met this year. They have helped me to become less judging towards people I've never talked to. I also managed to meet a lot of pretty sweet people this year from FA. Including
fek and his very loving boyfriend 
sochi We spent Sunday at the High Velocity along with another furs for a few drinks, laughing and talking up a storm was a major highlight of the convention.
Not including my stupid stunt on Friday night where I started the "Take On Me" Conga line on the lower level of the Marquis with other suiters. Another good highlight of the weekend.
Yet again I did run into a lot of you that I talked to on Telegram. Unfortunately being a quick brief hello and a hug in the elevator. It was still great to see the people behind the fursona in person! Just wish there was more time to sit down and chat! So many people. So little time!
Another amazing highlight of the con was meeting
faar and seeing 
kai_yeena For the first time where we hit up the dance floor on the night of the dead dog dance. Making up these stupid dance moves revolving around making soup and being processed by demons! That was another good highlight of the con!
As for the convention itself. Since moving down to Atlanta in 2013 and attending it for the first time in 2014 until now. I'm quite amazed at the hard work the director and the staff made this convention grow very quickly over the 3 years of attending. Making it one of the best conventions to attend in the southern area. (That's my opinion of course! I've yet to attend TFF! Yet heard high things about it!) Truly an amazing event for the local community and to all those traveling to make it one to remember every year! It is always a great pleasure seeing you all there every year! Speaking of conventions. I've begin to start developing a YouTube channel series where I'll be making convention videos of any con I attend. Which will include interviews with random convention goers, directors, the works! Guess you can kind of call it a coverage kind of series. But stay tuned for when that will be available!
As of right now. I'm still working around to getting my life together. Sure right now it's tough. But after this weekend, I'm glad to finally let go of the grudge I held onto for the past 2 years. Now it's on to bigger and better things!
As for my next adventures! I will be attending a brand new convention on the 29th of this month down in Pensacola, Florida. (Which had exceeded it's 150 registration mark.)
Emerald Fur Con will be my next convention where I'll be hosting my very first panel on Photography in partnership with
ShuneWolf And I also believe that will be the very first convention I'll be covering for my brand new YouTube series!
FURSONACON
Norfolk, Virginia
This will also be my first time attending this convention.
PhilpeWolf will be tagging along with me as this will also be his first convention and I actually convinced him to check one out. So might as off start him off somewhere! Looking forward to checking this one out as well with a good close friend of mine!
That's about it for this journal everyone! I thank each and everyone of you that I had ran into over the weekend and online numerous times inside of the computer or outside! You really help make my life one worth living for! <3
Peace out to you all!

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/Updates
General | Posted 9 years agoHey, Everyone!
I would like to express my warm wishes to everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to every one of my followers and friends on here! You all mean a lot to me and hope the Holiday season has been treating you all very well!
I know I haven't been keeping up with the journal system on here as of late. But mainly because of being caught up with the new job, which has been going strong for a good 4 months with some very good pay. Still paying off the debt from the last apartment I was living on, hopefully, I'll find a place of my own soon, but living with my buddy and others has been doing well for me. As I sit here with a fresh cup of coffee and reflect on what terrible events that had come through this year, I've quickly picked myself back up into the right track. Talking with one of my close friends evilfawx Had really made me think of the poison that had plagued me for a good year. I realized I was entirely at fault for that to happen and decided to just live with it and learn from it. Despite it destroying an acquaintanceship.
As for my personal writing. I've been poking at that when I have the free time. I'll try and find some time to finish up some projects and have them posted on my profile when I can get to it. Again, work is seriously kicking my ass right now! XD
CONVENTIONS
As of this journal log: FWA 2017 is currently my only convention planned for the 2017 year. If any other conventions are added to the year. Please refer to the convention panel located on the profile bio section to learn more on my docketed convention plans.
This year really has been a tough one to everyone from what I can see. But now we are coming to a close and it's time to just reflect on the good and not just the bad that had happened. Best we can do is take them as lessons. Which is what I'm intending to do to better myself as a person. But a majority of you all.
Thank you very much to all those who stood behind me through good and bad this year and beyond before. Heres to a bright and successful 2017!
Regards
- Danny/Agent SoCal Shepherd

Life Update and What Not
General | Posted 9 years agoTo say the least, things right now could be better. Yet there have been improvements, ups and downs and the usual bullshit. But I don't like to spill my thoughts onto a digital journal for everyone to see and possibly judge me. But it's something right now I want to get off of my chest.
As of lately. We were evicted from our apartment in this last week, not a fault to ours and my current events of unemployment, It was mostly the apartment management's fault as they claimed they "LOST" our rent. Using that term very loose. I'm looking at the situation in a more positive matter as our personal belongings have been successfully locked in a storage unit, My fursuit is safe at my friend's place until I can get myself back on my feet. Worst case scenario I'd end up outside in the streets with no possible communication to the outside world or anywhere in between. Mostly a lone wolf on the prowl for better to come. But that worst case scenario has not happened.
As for personal employment, I have been working for a startup restaurant in the John's Creek area in Georgia and hopefully whatever money comes through will be used to get myself back on my feet and pay off any debts I owe to credit lenders and the what not's.
To those I have shared the news personally on Telegram, I personally thank you for your personal concerns regarding mine, and Fiancee's safety and regards to our personal belongings and moral. We are safe until we can acquire a new place to stay.
As for another personal matter of my recent acts of self destruction from events a year ago. I'm still getting over that.
I'm safe. I'm in good hands of a very close friend.
Thank you.....

YouTube Progress + Other Updates!
General | Posted 9 years agoThe past couple of weeks has been somewhat rough. A few may have known, I recently left my job at the airport for various reasons. The first week after leaving was rather a tough one. I've been questioning myself for what I want to do with myself in life. With the majority of the extra spare time, hanging out with friends outside of the internet which I never got a chance to do so in the first place. I've also managed to try and get my YouTube channel back into the works.
With the spare time. I managed to successfully upload 4 episodes of myself playing OUTLAST on the PS4 and most likely want to make YouTubing a full-time thing for myself. For about 8 years now, I've always enjoyed the challenge of editing videos and other stuff together. It beats the challenge of having people yell at me to get food out in a timely manner while I was working at the airport. (Currently, I'm still trying to find some steady work just to try and help out with the bills and what not.)
Just to help the time pass by while I find some steady work. I decided it was the best thing to keep myself busy by playing some games and recording myself, along with some friends of mine while we both react to whatever the hell happens while I play these.
It's been about since 2013 if I can remember doing YouTubing a long time ago. It was a fun hobby I had while living back in California and enjoyed the fun of getting out of it. Since major depression struck me, I closed the whole project down.
Today. Since it has been two weeks of being out of work. I figured I try to give YouTube another shot! Instead of making the silly little short movies I did back in California, I want to throw in some gaming videos into the mix. Not wanting to focus on gaming as a majority of the subject of the channel. But, just whatever else pops into my head that might be good to put up there.
If anyone is willingly interested to check out the channel. The link will be on the bottom of this journal.
But going into my second week being jobless. It's honestly not doing as much damage to who I am as a living being. But it's kind of opening up new doors for what I want to do with myself in life.
As of now. I've been giving writing a little break. I'll have some more chapters of the Red Shepherd upload. Along with another story I stared to work on that takes place after the Red Shepherd.
Until than everyone! Take care of yourselves!

Q&A Video
General | Posted 9 years agoAs I'm sitting here, waiting to hear back from my boss for my background check to clear to get back to work.
Since I'm slowly getting around to starting a YouTube channel here with me playing games and other random stuff. I feel like doing a Q&A video. If you got questions, I got answers that I'll reveal in a little quick video. So ask a dude who pretends to be a secret military agent with a blue mohawk whatever he wants!

24 years alive.
General | Posted 9 years agoTomorrow will mark the day I'll be walking this earth for 24 years. As to what I think to where I am in life right now. I'm content, but not fully 100 happy with where I am. As for where I work it's not something I want to do for the rest of my days, and I want to do something that will secure my future for good. But with such little time and money, and battling spells of depression. I haven't fond to better myself because of these reasons. It's been a week after FWA and the transition back into the real world has been quite a rough start. Yet I'm doing my best to fight through it. And as for convention going. AnthroCon 2016 will be my next con! So hopefully I'll see you guys there!
And that's about it for this journal.
Laterz!

FWA 2016 Wrap Up!
General | Posted 9 years agoThere is so much to talk about how energetic everything was at FWA this year I don't even know where to begin! I would want to say it was the best FWA I've been to in 2 years since going there! I have met a majority of you guys on FA here and I was surprised with how many I met here. It was great seeing you all! Face old and new! Everything there was incredible. A major improvement from my experience last year! But a door I wanted to close was left open. But I think it's best to leave that situation for good and stick with those who want to be around me!
Thanks so much for a great time! I will see you all most likely at MFF!

Venting
General | Posted 10 years agoLately the past two weeks, I've come to questioning who really wants to be by my side, and who really cares about me. I'm not gonna try and get deep into details about how I have been feeling. It felt like I was just recently lead on by somebody under a false ideal to not have my feelings hurt.
I will not be including any names in the hopes to not stir up any trouble with this person.
We all have different categories after some strict research this morning. Turns out I have a ENFP type of personality.
Reasons for it, despite the bad people do. I still see the good in them. Sure I'm still hurt from what happened. But lets keep it in the past. I'm trying whatever possible to move on from it.

Post-California Trip
General | Posted 10 years agoAfter 2 years of living in Georgia. I have decided to take a trip back home to see my family and others for a fun weekend!
I have to say I got more than I was expecting from a great trip back home after 2 years. It majorly cured my homesickness for good! I flew out early in the morning from ATL and landed around 8 at LAX on their time system. Spend the first 3 days hanging out with my family catching up with what was going on with their lives since I have left. Friday we went to catch a dodger game for old time sakes. Dodgers destroyed the cubs 4 to 1 which was awesome to see after not being at a game for years.
Early Saturday morning I drove down to Orange County to meet up with
Rahyr to spend a weekend at DisneyLand and explore around the Anaheim. Little was I surprised the SoCal Furries were also hosting a bon fire over at Huntington Beach. Decided to check that out and got to know some of the SoCal furs out there for the first time. Along with meeting with other SoCal furs I wanted to meet in person that I cannot list cause there were so many!
I want to thank those I met while I was out there! You made this trip very special for me. <3

Writing
General | Posted 10 years agoAs of late. I have found myself to be stuck in my own thoughts of what tends to be these badass secret agent scenarios and what not. So after a few years of having a break. I finally got back to start writing again!
As of now I'm writing something about my fursona on a top secret mission back in Los Angeles. I also got my friend Rahyr as my partner in the story with it!
It contains some usual drama, comic relief, a little naughty stuff. Not to an extreme of course. But I really hope you guys will enjoy whats to come to it,
If you haven't read chapter 1. Here it is!

Possibly might be moving back home.
General | Posted 10 years agoIt has been going across my mind for a good few weeks since I started talking to some of the furs back in California. And looking at my own personal place in life right now. I came to Georgia to try and get myself a better future. It managed to get me my own apartment but at the same time my current job and mate's job is hardly getting by and I'm starting to get tired of it.
Sure my life out here is pretty much started but it's just not worth not eating every single day cause of the wages I'm earning and without any proper training in any of the fields I'm in right now.
I miss my family. I miss everything about back home. It's really affecting the way I'm performing at work. I want to go back home to fix myself for a better future. Even if its to destroy everything I built from the ground up here.
To all those in Georgia I've met. You are all great. I'm sorry.
Most of all. I'm sorry Courtney.
If I make this decision. It's not everyone. It's me...
