2021 going into 2022!
Posted 4 years agoAnother long time without any updates, whoops, apologies!
So let's see, things to mention:
I enjoyed myself at MFF 2021! I made lots of new friends, a lot of people recognized my name from YEARS ago. It was a blast, and I hope to do many more conventions.
Now being that I said many years ago, I'm being reminded of, and am greatly sorry for, not posting commissions in years! It's made me very irrelevant but I never stopped getting pictures, I just got very lazy and then the bulk got bigger and bigger. XD So I guess at some point I'm gonna like, MASS DUMP my art? Maybe make 2022 my year of like "Post all this old shit and show people that I'm nuts". If you've known me personally over the years you've probly seen a lot of them, but there's a good chunk of a lot of UNPOSTED stuff from people and I never realized, oops.
Aside from that, things have been going well with the relocation. Illinois is a lot more fun to be around than Montana, and there's a lot more opportunity. I also got hired for the job I was training for during 2020/2021! My education went well, I graduated out of UTI with a 3.7 GPA in the one year fast track program, and then I got a job at a dealership that I've been working since July! It's been nice, I'm learning a lot, and it's so nice to be doing a job I wanted to do for years, and getting paid better than I ever have (All be it still low by comparison to many in my age range and such, but I have to start at zero so).
So all in all, things have been improving! I've met lots of cool new people, I miss some people I can't talk to anymore, may they be restful now, and I'm looking forward to what comes next, might even finally get myself a fursuit after all these years!
So yeah, just a heads up that there may come a dump of art stuff should I find the time and energy to work that in on a couple weekends or something. X3

A 2020 Update and Birthday thing!
Posted 5 years agoWhew I haven't done a journal in some time!
For starters: I've turned 31 today. I've easily spent half my life in this fandom now, and it's been great!
I finally moved out of Montana, got to attend MFF 2019 as my very first furry convention, and manage dto get to Fur Squared 2020 before the virus shut everything down. Had plans for Anthrocon 2020 and MFF 2020 but uh, well yeah. A shame I FINALLY got out to do all this, and then that crazy stuff happens. Those were fun though, I met some great people, and learned what more I wanna do kinda. :3
This year wasn't without downers too though, the world changed and we lost some wonderful people. It's hard for me to not think about one in particular: Sean Blackthorne. He was a wonderful artist and I loved commissioning him, always was so nice to me, and I was hoping 2020 would be the year I would finally maybe get to meet him at the conventions since I could finally go, but alas. My condolences to all his loved ones and I will always remember him dearly.
On a less downer note: As of relocating I've also gone into education! Despite my age, and how much older I am than many students I'm with, I'm now attending Universal Technical Institute! I started back in January actually, but then Covid hit and kinda stunted the process. I just started the online learning and mixed learning for labwork these last 2 weeks. So far it's been mostly fun! I'm excited to learn more about cars and work into becoming a certified automotive technician! So come next year, that goal should be in effect!
I'm not quite where I wanted to be at this age, got a few years late start on things, my younger siblings are much better off than I am and I'm still a bit family bound for living, but crying about it won't solve anything obviously. So I'm gonna work harder at things. Maybe by the time I'm 32 I'll be where I wanted moreso, living on my own somewhere, working in what good lewd fun I can before I get too much older, and just taking more time to actually be myself and get closer to people IRL within the fandom, since I missed out on lot of those chances in the last 8 years.
Anyway, I wanna thank anyone who's stuck around this long with me, you're wonderful people! <3 And a final apology for my lack of posting! I never stopped commissioning people, but there was a lot of crazy stuff happening, paired with my lack of motivation and general laziness, that just stopped me from posting my commissions. I wanna share what I have with everyone, I do! And lots of it is YEARS old now, but yeah, I just never had the drive to start flood posting things. I may have to find a nice alternative to this. But yeah, this pervy Rule 34 cat never stopped,and it's hard to imagine me stopping even in the next 5 to 10 years? I might wind up becoming some creepy older fur who's still way into his porn, but life will tell in time! Maybe I'll find someone okay with all my wacky perverse arts and still accept me as me and wanna still have a family? I dunno. Not exactly my most pressing thought right now, even if my family harp on me and my siblings cause none of us got kids yet. XD
Right, well here's to surviving 2020 and maybe making 2021 that better year~ <3

Been a while, and I'm lucky to be alive!
Posted 9 years agoSo I don't normally post stuff here whoops but a quick life update. Almost got myself killed ugh.
So like…. I’m okay, thank god, but my car is a mess. I recently came into ownership of a Mazda RX-8. It was a fun car, and I do a certain event with it. Today at the event during my last run I lost control and well, I can’t go into too much detail but I can explain what happened.
I hit a curb that lead to a concrete edge of sorts where some plants are planted. I nailed the curb, bounced into that concrete wall as my front bumper corner slammed into it, spun me around AND sent my car onto it’s right side, I saw the view for a brief moment even. Then it slammed back down on it’s wheels and I quickly escaped. The helmets we are required to wear saved me most likely. My airbags did not go off, only the passenger side. I don’t seem to have any injuries, I’m gonna be sore and achy in a bit probly. My car is thrashed right now though. Wheel DESTROYED and the other are unknown. The car is at a shop being evaluated. I don’t really have any money to go about fixing it, even if the frame and engine are okay. We’re gonna check options, but yeah. I have a backup vehicle I can borrow to still get around, but yeah I might be kinda depressed for a while and I’m so mad at myself for this slip. I endangered myself and others, and now it’s gonna cost me. Alas.

Birthday and stuff
Posted 10 years agoOh god it's been a while since I wrote a Journal whoops. So yeah, it's my Birthday and stuff! Gotten to a point where I kinda stop tracking my age, wanna say I've turned 26 now? XD So yeah, another year down and stuff. Should be a pretty casual day, and I'm gonna see if any sexy things show up. XD
Paypal Temporarily Stopped!
Posted 11 years agoSo I have to close the bank account linked to my Paypal today. They are switching ownership at my bank, and the new policies are pretty terrible, but I have another bank to easily swap to that handles my car loan and such. Already have the account I need open and just need to close out and swap over. The problem with this is: Without detailing too heavily here, I basically can't sign in to my paypal through their website on this computer. So Until I find a way to login and edit details, perhaps on another computer, I cannot get the new account information, so until I figure it out, I will not be able to pay for anything like commissions, or try to order things from ebay or Amazon, at least without entering specific card information. Thankfully I think I paid for just about anything I had to last week, so I should be in the clear, but yeah, have to get things closed by today/tomorrow. Bleh. Just a little notice in case, and a reminder to myself as well. XD
Duez got a Wii U!
Posted 11 years agoSo yeah, managed to finally dive for a Wii U, it's been fun for the past weeks here. Mario Kart 8 sold it for me cause I played it at a friends place. XD And yeah, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate as well with friends. So yeah, feel free to add me and stuff, but leave some kinda message so I know who you are! Those are the only two games I have right now, but who knows in the future, might look into Splatoon. XD SSB as well of course, most likely. XD
So yeah, name on there should be Duezthecat, note me on here if you add me, just so I can verify! :3
Also yeah, Mario Kart 8 is loads of fun, I know 'm already kinda losing interest in it, cause that's how Mario Kart is, you play it to death and then only in tidbits with friends, so I need more friends to play with here and there to keep me going while I perv on Yoshi and Bowser and now Larry. XD
As for MH3U, I'm still kinda scrubby at it, but I do what I can. Mostly need help grinding parts right now, and otherwise I'm just derping about with it, but it's been a pretty fun game. :3 I was originally playing on the 3DS but yeah, now with this I can play online and stuff. :3

Valentines and Legos!
Posted 11 years agoSo yeah, Happy Velentines to everyone and stuff. Pretty neutral on the holiday now. It's super commercial and yet still a good way to show you care for people. It doesn't bother me as much as Christmas cause it's not as expected of everyone. YOu can just get some candy, cuddle up, and you're golden. XD So yeah, love or hate the holiday, have a good day with it. I kinda wanna get a picture for it, buuuuut it's really unnecessary, but any excuse to love on some Rule 34. XD Might be fun to find someone on my list with little to no love and give them some, maybe? o: Open to artists with ideas, kehehe. XD
Speaking of love, I guess, saw the Lego Movie with some pals last night. Pretty good movie, I see why it's doing so well, but I do have my little quips with it. I don't wanna say too much to avoid spoilers though. :3 If you can get some friends together and see it, I say go for it. It has some nice humor, lots of internet references I suppose, and it's pretty enjoyable. Also debating this Unikitty thing. A lot of people are loving her, and I'm sorta mid-ground and leaning to liking her, but it would be for some wrong reasons. XD Plus I mean, it's Lego so hmm... seen some neato fanart of her (One by Ajin was very nice) and I did love the "Business Business Business, Numbers, Is this working?" moment. XD So yeah, I dunno, she's cute and all. *Shrug* XD
Anyway, enjoy your Valentines Day and spread some love. ;3

Mewtwo Day?
Posted 11 years agoI randomly was notified that today is, according to some old Pokemon information, Mewtwo's date of birth! 8D So uh, yay Pokemon things, love that Pokemon, even though the view is haflway skewed because of the movies and all. Anyway, show you're love for the Psychic type cat-critter today if you can, I guess! I normally don't do these silly journals, especially with such a long gap in journals, but hey. Wonder if any fun art will show up today? o: I'd love to cuddle up with one myself. <3 Among other things with them hips and those feet. XD
Moving Suggestions
Posted 12 years agoFirst world problems, ahoy!
So I can't take it anymore. My parents are just being pains in my ass, and yes, in some cases I deserve it, I'm lazy at times and there's a lot of shit I don't do it, because I'm just like that. Half the shit I do in my day is BECAUSE of them, because of these shitty dogs, because of this horrible job setup and all the stress my mother is under. She was pushing my buttons again this morning and I just can't take it anymore, I want out. I want out of this horrible, empty state. I want away from these animals I said NO to in the first place, I want some fucking privacy.
So yeah, I want to move, OUT OF STATE and everything. I have a lot of planning to do, but I just cannot take this anymore. I need a REAL job, I need privacy, I don't want to be helping people all the time because my parents know them or want to renovate this shitty old house. So yeah, I know i have a lot to do on the side before I can even go, like A. Figure out where the fuck I want to be!
I have a few things with my car I'd have to warn my insurance and bank about, switch banks from my main one cause it's not on the East Coast, which is where I'm thinking of maybe going. I have some other little things to tie up and many things to prep, like calling ahead once I know where I'm going for a good place to stay, and getting job interviews lined up before I even hit the road. It would be nice to have a job waiting for me when I get there, but yeah, a little too hopeful methinks.
It would be nice to live on my own, but I know times are tight, and with my car payments in addition, yeah, I may have to live with someone, which I'm willing to do so long as we both work steady jobs.
So far after rummaging through climate items and some other suggestions, I looked into possible West Virginia or Vermont for now. Both have a good amount of rain and I REALLY wanna live somewhere where it rains a lot. I know many people will list cities from that top 12 list or whatever, but MANY of those are Southern, and I won't go to the South. WV is close enough as is. I can't STAND warm climates as much, heat kills me, and humidity is a nightmare too. I'm from Montana, so I'm used to very dry and cold climate. I know those other two states are more humid and warm, but they still have good col spots and way more rain.
I also wanted to go east coast because many furs and people I know live more on that side. All the cons tend to happen over there too. Yeah, there's California and Washington over here, but both are a bit more pricey to live in, or so I think. California is too mixed up for me to survive in anyway, plus that gun law. I also need somewhere quiet, I still wanna live in a city, bigger than here, but I need quiet times so I can finally try to work on a Voice Acting portfolio and such. I could never work on it here because of all the noise, ESPECIALLY the dogs running around. Which is another thing, NO ANIMALS. I can't take it anymore. All these fucking MESSES, all the animal watching, having to drop everything to make sure a pooch doesn't choke on something. I'm so FUCKING TIRED OF IT. We've had dogs for most of our lives here in Montana, and cats on the side, among many other rodents and such. I just don't wanna deal with it anymore. They are HUGE money sinks, too.
So yeah, I just wanna get out there, socialize more, be closer to like minded people, get away from my family for a bit, get a decent job that might actually lead to something else, work on that voice acting to try and work it into a career, even though soon that may be a dead industry, who knows. I don't need a lot, I don't want to SPEND a lot either. I just want some privacy, some space, I wanna go meet people without the feeling I'm half my age because my parents are looming over my shoulder. I Appreciate they let me live with them for so long, I do! They took great care of me and let me stay 6 more years than most people would with their kids. I also owe them for this job I have right now but things have just gone SO downhill in the last 2 years. All this bullshit is piling up and I need a good change of scenery.
There are a few other things I could go into, but well, it's mostly personal things I need to go over before I plan a move. Not to mention, it's going into Winter time soon, which is a PAIN to move in from Montana, and I dunno how it is elsewhere, but moving in the cold is annoying and frustrating. I may have to tough this out for 3 more months, make it through Christmas and all that, and the maybe around February try to move my butt out of here or something. We'll see how long my patience lasts, but yeah, I'm open to suggestions for states, cities, all that. It'd be nice to try and keep up with hobbies, but all I have is Warhammer 40K, which is annoying me at this time, my video gaming, my car (which I shouldn't probly be racing if I need it day to day), and maybe a few other tiny things. I like to socialize so meeting other furs and such around me would be good too. A chance to make new friends and all that. since all my local ones moved away
So yeah, any advice on moving and such would be appreciated, and state or city locations would be very appreciated. Since I don't live near any of those states, I have no idea what the culture is like and such. I don't know what's dangerous, what's good, a lot fo real world things, really. XD So anything people can offer I'm happy to take. This state will drive you nuts, I swear.

Barfday!
Posted 12 years agoYeah, today is the day I age another year. I am now 24! It's a rather random number. XD Just derping around, hanging with friends later, working for the morning at least. So bleh, just another day really. :3
Upcoming whatever
Posted 12 years agoNothing really important, just some stuff I felt like typing out as reminders and just random updates for myself and anyone whom cares. :3 Also, really quick as it was brought to my attention recently; I apologize for my lack of uploads. I just kinda fell off of it, and when my computers were all dead that didn't help either. So uh, I may just do a dropbox full of all my commissions or something? (Although any that were said to never share, I won't) I doubt anyone wants a flood of like, HUNDREDS (no joke) of images I've commissioned in the last 2-3 years. I'm such a whore. XD A good 80% get uploaded by the artist though, so yeah.
So uh, on Tuesday I'm taking my car in to get the brakes done up, almost had nothing left! Everything on this car is more than likely stock from day 1. Thankfully I did the tires and wheels as is, so the brakes are coming up, I replaced my filter with a more expensive, washable K+N filter, so that's neat. Also getting a Discord vinyl in to slap on my back window for a little personality. XD I wonder, does anyone on FA maybe do custom vinyls? Also, this is all necessary not only for standard maintenance, but for that Autocross event I do. The next race I'm going to is on the 25th, and I'm eager to go again. The only thing I need to check for right now otherwise is potentially changing my muffler/tailpipe. It's not NEEDED, but I wanted to change the tip and my engine really doesn't push out enough power to dive on a 2.5 inch pipe, and most inlets are just that! Curse my 2 inch exhaust sometimes. XD
Speaking of monthly events, my Birthday will be 4 days before that! August 21st where I plan to... work and then game I guess? XD We'll see, my mothers' is the day before mine, so I gotta see what they have planned too. Also, the 20th should be
lancer_buck birthday too! Send him loves! o:
And uh, I guess that's it! Lots of things have gone on, most of which I just kinda meh about. I'm getting really tired of all the Pokemon leaks. Stop it, Japan! I: < There are games I may want in the future though, but really I should keep looking into moving somewhere that isn't this boring old state. It's calm but I'm kinda just losing my mind without common minds and cool people to hang with, plus cons being so far (and thus expensive) to get to. Open to ideas! I know a lot more people on the east coast, so I was thinking I may plop myself around the middle in West Virginia? Though I don't actually know anyone in that state specifically. XD
So uh, on Tuesday I'm taking my car in to get the brakes done up, almost had nothing left! Everything on this car is more than likely stock from day 1. Thankfully I did the tires and wheels as is, so the brakes are coming up, I replaced my filter with a more expensive, washable K+N filter, so that's neat.

Duez in local Autocross!
Posted 12 years agoOkay so, on Sunday the 7th of July here, I went to a local racing group I had learned about, sponsored by the SCCA and such. They hold an Autocross event in my city now and then, and I had no idea until now! So I checked, saw my car was eligible, and dived at the chance to push it! It was great fun and things went relatively smooth. My car had no problems in it and now I have the results from the race! :3 I’m still waiting for images and the two recorded videos they let me take (I didn’t even ask, the one guy just came up and asked if it was okay to mount the camera on and record two of my laps. They weren’t my best but they were my smoothest). BUT in the meantime, here is the official page of race results. My car is located in the “HS" class, the car is a “2008 Dodge Avenger" and my name will be “Dennis Dadej" in there.

Duez and his Avenger!
Posted 12 years agoSo like, yeah, some of you may know I bought a car like, 3 years ago and have been using it since. WELL there just s happened to be a racing event where I live (how did I miss this?) and I finally got to go to one today! And oooooh my fucking god, I can push my car WAY harder than I thought. XD Fuuuck I had so much fun. I managed to get a sunburn because of the "work help" half of it (Stand and make sure when other racers hit cones) but hey, for 15 bucks, I am not complaining. <3 I got to just learn so many things and pushed my car pretty hard, and it just took it amazingly. o: New rims and tires worked GREAT.
The group said the videos should be uploaded to Youtube at some point, so when I have the links, I shall leave theme here, cause they let me borrow it for two of my better laps and yeah. All in all, in my class I placed 2nd, beaten by an older Mini Cooper (Nimble as fuck). My best time came to 68.9something. (With one penalty cone I omnom'd, 66.9 otherwise), which was good considering I started at 92-ish seconds, and dropped to 75 like, right after that. XD So yeah. :3 Had fun, will see when I can get those vids, and love my car all the more. <3 Not bad for my first time either. 8D Lots of people seemed pretty impressed I suppose.

Derp and Father's Day, I suppose!
Posted 12 years agoThanks to all the dads for creating all my awesome friends, I suppose! :3 Although TBH I really hate these kind of days. Just because certain "holidays" like this force you into gift getting sometimes, and they are like "YOU BEST BE GRATEFUL!" and I'm like, "I'm grateful every day!" Always love my folks, even if they do obviously get on my nerves at times. XD
Also a good day I suppose to look into DILFs and such in the Rule 34 areas! Only ones I know of from my list are Sarmoti, Rafael (From Rio) and Blu... too?, Scar technically, uh... Bowser?, and uh, I guess also Hank Reiss, the Wereskag from the first Borderlands in the Zombie DLC, I believe he was a father before he converted! o:
Anyway, that's all I got there! Otherwise uh, not much going on, looking into spending money on some rims and tires for my car cause it kinda needs them, and pony stuff is all over the place right now cause our local group just got bigger, and the new movie is coming out and I don't really care for it, but if the group goes, I'll probly tag along for the derp of it all, and so I can have a valid, fair opinion about how much I'll probly dislike it. XD

Out and about in Chicago
Posted 12 years agoOkay, this journal will get updated later with the information in full, but it appears we will be going to Woodfield Mall at some point. I'll put a time in here, but I should definitely be there! :3 I suspect around 3pm, I guess? Anyway, I'm wearing a yellow Angry Beavers shirt today! :3 Should be wicked easy to spot me. I'll try to have my badge on me as well. :3 I walk around with a leather satchel bag. If you miss me, I'd be surprised. XD
Okay, update from phone. Heading there now. Like I thought around 3. Will be there maybe 2 hours or so? Come say hi!

Duez is in Chicago
Posted 12 years agoSo yeah,we made it here! Travel wasn't too bad and now I am residing with family in Chicago. :3 I'll try to figure out what area I'm more in, but I really haven't made any plans with anyone, so yeah. I may have to go message a bunch of Chicago furs or something. XD I will mention when I go out to malls and stuff too, and if you'd like ,I'll be trying to keep my location updated on Twitter! You can find that here: https://twitter.com/DuezChattyCat
Otherwise, yeah, only got the plan to see the new Fast and Furious on the 24th, will update what theater and time I'm going at! And I can only really make plans for Tuesday-Friday, kinda. The next week is reserved for a lot of family, but we shall see!

So far so good?
Posted 12 years agoAlrighty, made it to our first stop here in South Dakota. Things have gone fairly smoothly so far thankfully, though I am already getting a touch irritated with the family. XD Alas, it always happens, we all have something we hate about each other while traveling. : P So yeah, at the hotel while everyone else checks out the big heads. I'm already kinda dreading getting to Chicago and having nothing planned and just being stuck being bored the whole time. XD Anyway, time to relax while I can, MAYBE get some sleep tonight, and then off to the road we go again.
Chicago Bound
Posted 12 years agoYeah, I leave apparently at 8am tomorrow morning with my family. We're driving for basically 2 days and then we should get to Chicago or something. I didn't really get to arrange anything. It's really hard to do in such a big state without knowing people or having an event. ;_; Plus I was kinda lazy. It doesn't help that my entire family is skeptic of meeting online folks, so yeah. XD
So yeah, note me if you do live in the city somewhere, or maybe nearby. I'm not sure where I can or what i can do since I've barely been there before and just know my family so yeah. I'll be trying to hang out at malls and will be picking a movie theater to go see that new Fast and Furious movie on Friday the 24th. Beyond that I really don't have plans, and I have from that Monday - Friday to myself, kinda sorta, before the next week has me busy with family things and then getting back home.
It'd be great to meet some more furs or pony people, and artists would be awesome too. <3 So yeah uh, I may go and bother the Illinoisfurs channel for assistance, but I can't really arrange anything, it kinda has to be set up for me in a safe environment, so bleh. D: Anyway, gonna just LOVE being trapped in a vehicle with family and having to stay at two hotels both ways. XD SIGH. : P

Chicago days and update
Posted 12 years agoOkay, so I got much more official days for when I will be in Chicago. Even if I knew my exact location there, I would not give it out publically, as I am not familiar with Chicago as is, and my family would not appreciate it. Anyway, I will be in Chicago from May 17th to May 31st. During the 20th to 24th my days are fairly open. I'd like to make use of these days and meet some people while I can. Please feel free to note me if you could do something. Most I can do for now is meet people at certain malls or other public places. Remember I am not familiar with the area, the car I will be using is not mine, and I need to be back at the home at a reasonable hour. More to come soon!
Chicago plans, derp!
Posted 12 years agoSo I'm still getting exact dates, but I should wind up in Chicago around like, May 20th, and I'm there till at least the 28th, I think? Might be longer than that, I forget. It's for my parents anniversary, and for several other things as well, so most days are kinda packed with family involved things. BUT I may get like, 2 or 3 days to use up to myself, and since I'd like to be as social as possible with it, I really want to make a MUCH better effort than the last time I visited, so I can meet some furs or whatever while I'm there! I'll be working out plans, but so far a major one is to try and hit a big IMAX theater or something for the new Fast and Furious on the release day (may 24th). We'll see if I can even do that much. XD Otherwise, I may try to get days where I can be dropped off at one of the malls, easy to meet up and find people there, right? XD I'll try to post what days and times I'll be there, maybe I'll just use the twitter account for that? o: I know it's not a whole lot of time but if anyone can try to make it to these things I try to set up, that'd be great, it'll help dealing with the family too. I'm pretty separated from them since I live in Montana with my folks, while the entirety of our other family lives in Chicago. XD So we don't share much in common these days.
So yeah, if anyone down there has ideas or ways I can meet them, preferably in public as to not offput my family and keep things safe of course, I'd appreciate input and potential scheduling out of days. Like I said, nothing is concrete yet, I'll have most of the details once I actually GET to Chicago. XD I will most of the time need to rely on others in the family for rides, as I won't really have my OWN vehicle and I dare not attempt to drive since I'm not familiar with the roads there. XD Walking doesn't hurt me too much so long as it's within 2 miles or something! XD So yeah, I'll be notifying the Illinoisfurs account as well, see if they can help a bit too. :3

Posted 12 years agoOkay just late at night, feel like doing a quick update on things.
Mainly that bot is still lingering, my father just got home last night, but yeah, lots of stuff he needs to tend to so it'll be a while, but we both know we need to look into finding a fix for this bot. It doesn't seem to do anything however, it does leave me this announcement to make temporarily, unless I find a way to fix this issue as well:
I am unable to login to my Paypal. I am not sure why but when I try to sign in, it just sits there... and loads... and loads... and it's very annoying. It's the only thing acting up lately and I don't know why. Does Chrome not get along with Paypal all of a sudden? Or is it that bot maybe?
Anyway, yeah, so that's happening which means I cannot really get any commissions (1st world problems) and just, bleh, it's like a hobby for me so having it shut down like that is a pest. I'll manage though. maybe it'll give me time to finish up what's left and try to organize some shit. XD
Now for the other part, sort of a lavish thing but: After recieving my tax refund, I can get some new tires (almost bald on my current) for my car, so okay, good fine, however, I have silly plastic covers on mine, and was thinking of getting rims instead, still trying to pick some but that's a COSTLY random expenditure for something you don't really need on your car. (Unless someone can tell me if rims are better for your car in some strange way) Although that would also cost an additional alignment charge, and I DO need to replace my struts at some point, so yeah, it could come to a costly bill, which is okay just... should I? Or should I stick to my sort of plan and save my money still, to move to another state and such? XD Also all that stuff means I keep my car for good, so I could paint it up and maybe tune it in the future or something. Just some ideas.

It's around that time again
Posted 12 years agoWhere I get a random viral issue that's so silly! XD
Okay so, from what we can gather... we've been watching two kids for a friend of ours, and already aside from being a slight pain in the ass, ONE of them in 13 and has a laptop. Okay, no biggy. HOWEVER, I managed to get a look at it after two of our local computers got infected and my god, Norton, issues all over the place, slow processing, yeah, that computer is fucked to all high hell. He also mentioned something about hosting a game server and port 80 access, kinda odd he knows about that, or so m father mentions, but we told him not to do anything. My father should not have let him on the network, just the internet guest account because... NOW two of the computers have a bot infestation. If we try to use our cleaning program, it works TOO well, and keep nuking this super replicating bot, which is deep rooted into many system files, and apparently when it's cleaning, it's almost deleting those files? Soooo I had a lovely time trying to fix my PC after that, which I did manage, but I'm sure this bot is already balls deep in my PC and taking all kinds of info and using me as a hub for crazy shit :/ So if you get anything strange from me, do let me know! Also check with me if you get anything anyway, it may not be safe!
I wish i was smarter to help fix this, but I have no clue what to do. :/ I think it's also messing with my booting in, the last time or two the shutdown worked, and updates went, but I still had to tell the computer to start up normally and such, so it acts like it shutdown wrong I guess? Anyway, just a note that I may not be as active or may be computerless soon if this keeps up. I could probly afford a new PC however that bot is probly rummaging in our router now, so until my father gets home (yeah, there's the kicker, this all happened RIGHT before he had to take off for an important out of state engagement for his military job) I cannot do much. I will definitely be changing all my password information once this DOES get fixed, but until then I'm gonna be stuck botted a while. It doesn't seem to do anything YET, I haven't taken any big processing hits or whatnot, but yeah, hmm. I'm sure my computer will self destruct eventually, knowing my luck with this. XD
I hate kids. :B

Random update thing and Porsches!
Posted 12 years agoBluh, so I woke up early this morning and had nothing to do before work after playing some Horizon and testing the 512 TR they threw in and tuning some of my other cars. (That game is too fun sometimes) And yeah, decided I'd go through my submissions folder, which was at 5000, due to multiple reasons, starting from a vacation I took to Reno for 2 weeks with a friend without a computer, so it stacked up to 500, then I lost two computers after each other, letting the number jump to 1500, and from there I just tried to maintain and managed that for like, 2 years. SO I took a few hours this morning and yeah, downsized that huge number to 1700. I'll still have to go through all that, save and whatnot, but better than that huge number. XD Kinda gets me some motivation to maybe start flooding the place with posts of lots of commissions I really love that I've gotten in the 2 or so years I haven't posting much of anything.
Speaking of Forza games and cars, I did shell out for that Porsche pack in 4 a while ago, so worth it even if I just drive my one car. Wish I coulda just bought the car, and not the entire pack, but the royalties for EA just are a bitch. : P Anyway, after all that, I got to pondering what it would cost to find my kinda model and such, and see the costs. The car is like, double the cost of my current one normally, though the insurance is a little lower, which is odd to me. Going from a 4 door Sedan to a 2 door Coupe and Dodge to Porsche... you'd think it would like, DOUBLE. XD I don't get insurance sometimes, or the car market. D: Anyway, yeah, just felt like randomly sharing that. Sadly the cars are very far from me and I really could not afford them. But I can dream. <3
