Get out there and buy all that extra chocolate tommorrow stat!

That I'm still looking for someplace to park my bags.

Since my temp job ended, I'm back looking for a new one.. And I don't currently have a good reason to continue squatting with my parents for the sake of it's proximity.

I moved back in with my folks as an emergency backup plan. I don't really want to get into all the details but I'll just say it was begrudging and we don't get along very well.

I'll hear out anyone happily, and I have money to pay rent and buy food for a few months (or hell I'll even do indentured-artist slavery, but I'm not really wonderful) but since I don't own a real car I can't travel very far. But like I said I'm proud to do my part and would pay for gas if a willing party would help me transport my 3 or 4 boxes of meager possessions using their vehicle.

Other than that I hope everyone's kicking off the new year well and staying flu-free.

So I had some fun, maybe too much fun. This year wasn't all that great, so I'm hoping that next year will be more enjoyable. until next time, peeples.

My phone is broken, so I'll say Merry Christmas here since I can't say it on a personal basis. Adding a new phone to my wish list at the last second.

EDIT: woooo It's still under Warranty, should be back in action within a week.

On November 6, 2012...



Someone actually factually hired me!

I felt ill the evening after my slots filled and couldn't get any work done, so that's why I haven't been in communication distance the last few days. Rest assured though I'm doing much better now and commissions will resume tomorrow, (albeit be unfortunately a little behind schedule.) I hope this won't be too much of an inconvenience to anyone.

EDIT: DOH Please COMMENT HERE if you want to reserve a slot.

My budget is a little tight, so I'll be opening a few slots, specifically, three slots. These will be first come first serve, and should be turned over rather quickly.

I am open for all of the following, but only for a total of three slots for now.
-Bust icons, shoulders and up. ($5)
-inked lineart. ($10)
-inked lineart with flat colors ($15)

please take a look at my Terms and conditions as well: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3936197/

Slot1:  Tohri , [2 colored]

slot2:  DominikTheDrake [To be determined]

slot3:  catso [Icon]

These are my T&C
I know there's a lot here but please at least read the first two sets of bullets.

**
What I'll draw:
I'll draw almost anything SFW, but my specialties include inflation or Chubby figures. I won't take commissions for water-sports, scat, slob, or anythingthing pornographic. Technically speaking I don't have anything against gore or violence, but my experience with extreme gore is limited.

**
Turnover time and protocol:
I take my work very seriously and maintain a professional stance. I can be contacted at any time for a status update. If you have a certain time you need a project finished by I'll attempt to meet you on it, but generally I work in the order recieved.

-When I reach a point of roughs in the commission process, I will sent these roughs to the customer for review. They will be able to request small alterations, and will be requested to pay at this time. After payment has been received I will complete the finishing touches and send the high resolution version of the commission.
*I accept paypal generally and payment in USD, but if you'd like to give me your business and want to pay with an alternate method let me know in advance and we can discuss it.

-I require at least one character reference, I can not work from text only documents. I can do "something like this" to a degree though assuming there is a visual aid to go by.

-If I believe I can not reasonably satisfy the customer I will decline to finish commission and formally apologize. because payment is made near the end of my production cycles, anything paid for will always be finished.

-Sorry people with giant wingspans, I charge a 4 dollar wingtax for wings that /look/ capable of flight. They're kind of a hassle to draw and extend the amount of time the piece will take.

**anything else
Rights and usage:
Some folks have differing views about this sort of thing, but I'm pretty straightforward about usage.
- if you paid me for it, you can post it anywhere you please, ask to keep it private, or anything you well please besides claim creative right
I'm providing a service, I'm not going to jerk paying customers around telling them what they can and can't do.. because the only thing you can't do is say you made my product, or attempt to resell it without consulting me first. If you buy an ink from me you can color it yourself and upload it without consulting me I wont fuss in the least.

**
Have a question?: Ask me, I won't bite your fingers off. While I don't really want to be heckled with on the prices, if you only want to buy 5 dollars worth of icon from me I'll work with you, but it will be rougher and less finished than the 10 dollar one. Likewise I won't do an icon that contains half the character's body and gesturing arms, but I can do a bust and prepare it to also be used like an icon.

bottom line, When in doubt: ask about anything you are unsure of on. Generally the only thing I'm busy with is my poor health and I have time to spare for clarifying any gray areas.

I have the house to myself for a whole week,

I have a second interview lined up on Monday,

A contract "loophole" allowed me to upgrade to a smartphone at no extra cost of a data plan, (but a malfunction caused me to loose all my old contacts and pictures bluh)

and I have lots of delicious food and an empty kitchen to cook it in.


Life is good sometimes <3

My present to myself, good fun! Can't help but think the Monk looked like Tenzin from 'Legend of Korra' though.

Thanks again to everyone who turned up to wish me a happy birthday, it really helped raise my spirits even though I was sick!

YES It's my birthday, thanks to everyone who has already been giving me well wishes wince 1 am this morning x3

In the traditional American way of celebrating the 21st; I will go buy beer. I will not be following the local southern tradition of buying a handgun and combining it with the beer :B

AC was a blast, I'm glad I went. I met lots of old friends as well as made some new friends.. for a full monologue of as much of the experience as I can remember(and speak about in public) you can check my tumblr: http://dumbpurpledragon.tumblr.com/.....utshell-ramble

[edit] TUESDAY Night I'll be getting on my bus to AC, so this will be mostly the end of my activity on FA until I come back. I'm about to contradict that, because I'll have my laptop with me, but for the most part I wont be around. All that being said, a note on FA is still the best way to get in touch with me if my attention was actually needed.

This will be my first trip to the state and to the con, so I'm hoping it will be both memorable and enjoyable.
If anyone needs me I'll be keeping  CupcakeCreature and  rackkesque company. (And apparently being mischievous with  Karosu)

It's bacon, I need say no more.

I really appreciate everyone getting on the watch and trying to spread the news about my misfortune situation, but I don't want there to be any more worry than need be.

I'm going to temporarily bunk in a spare room my parents' have. it won't be the most private, but it will get me the freshened air I need, among other things.

I found out my state has it's own forum linked from FA that I'll look into it in my own spare time as I can. There might not be any furry friends within 30 miles or so, but there is family that loves me, whom I can fall back on(Even if I'd rather fall someplace more private xD) I'll keep on the search, but I hate to keep people worked up.

I extend thanks to everyone who cared for me, and particularly for  Darcin7 ,  decker and  zedex for trying to raise awareness. If nothing else my spirits were lifted by the outcry of compassion, but now It'll be up to be to plan from here on out.

Thanks again for all the support, I'll do my best to sort everything out.

[EDIT]: Journal pimping? X3 you guys are too kind you're gonna kill me. If nothing turns up I know I can get refuge from my parents too. If anything at all comes up I'll be sure to update so that no undue worry is caused. I hate people worrying as it is.


I kind of hate to ask again.. But is there anyone out here in the East Tennessee area, and moreso anyone in the area who might be interested in getting to know me for purposes of rooming.

This isn't a I'm-homeless-emergency. I am having a number of frustrations with my current lodging, and it would probably be better for my health is I could get out of a dusty 1890s termite infested house. I haven't been in good health lately, and my health has been in decline. I'm not asking for to freeload, or act without explanation.

If anyone watching me is, or knows someone from the East Tennessee area who might be around this area and interested, I'd be grateful to get in touch.

I live close to Johnson city, an area south not too far of the Bristol Motor Speed way.
Thanks for reading.

I have a tumblr now too. I'll start posting lame doodles unworthy of FA there, and assorted things that I think are lulzy or cool..

EDIT: and it is http://dumbpurpledragon.tumblr.com/

And my shouts went away, Dag nabbit dammit!

All the cool kids are getting tanked.

Gonna go do it. bll peeps, after Christmas.

I'm not much of a morning person weh.

9/11/01

Never forget.

I'm old today.

My rope is getting pretty short, my living arrangements are probably going to collapse at the end of the summer, and it's rightly been the source of much panic and a drain on energy and inspiration.

I've seen the fandom do some pretty amazing things, and so I ask: Are there any East Tennessee Furs that would like to take in a dum purple dragon to help pay the rent? I'm excellent with computers, friendly with others, and the only thing that's below my dignity is being homeless : \

I'm currently on the search for a paying job, but I have a fair amount of money already saved up so I'm not asking someone to pamper me, just a roof over my head and someplace to set up some of my things. I only have a few boxes full in all.

Pats on the head are nice sometimes, but that is NOT what I need right now. I need help, and I'm not too big to admit it. I also ask that people who live outside the state of Tennessee ( I live in east Tennessee), please don't try to offer me vacancy unless you'd be willing to help move me, because my Scooter can't get me past highways. : (

I'll remain optimistic, and check back later. If you feel like it's right spread the word of my troubles and maybe someone who can help will hear me.
