-Landis F

Sorry for the delay about my AC '12 recap, been sick since I got home, it might be some type of summer cold, but alot of people I know are sick too, maybe its a global conspiracy or something. anyway, where should I begin...

Thanks to  orion-j for helping me with the room, thank you very much!

I met and hung out with some amazing furs (If I forgot your name, I do apologize, trying to remember everyone)  blimpwolf,  captainfurry,  raccoondrew,  unit52,  kibayoukai,  zorrofeta,  jouva,  ozkangaroo,  macroceli,  woods,  jankcoon,  nickwolf,  flir,  dingoroo,  hypr,  delako,  TomxWolf,  fennechelix,  OwenRattus,  frozenflame,  fwoomp,  lilifox,  bangabear,  gillpanda,  dmk,  crashmccloud,  dragoneer,  sciggles, and many, many, many more.

It was a amazing weekend, full of discovery and wonderment, plus some amazing food (except that diner, I think it was called harlon's or something, way too greasy).

Next time, I'm thinking about taking a train, the ride up was nice, although the ride home, my suitcase will never be the same :( fursuit case is ok!

Now, a announcement, give much thought, I have decided to move to a newer account. I figured to retire the  fji1 name. My new account is landisf remember, the "f" stands for fat, or fusky, or whatever. So, new account landisf all of my newer stuff will be there soon. still trying to get feeling better.

Thank you everyone!

Well, after a week of actually having some time off to chill out and get things done, here is a update of whats going on.

I got Max Payne 3 for the 360 and I'm liking it, then again I like film noir stuff. I decided to make a crew for the multiplayer, and if you want to join my crew, message me and I will invite you to be part of my crew (and those crews can be in gta 5)

I got bored one day and decided to make a sushi pyramid, here is my result: http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/.....5/photoqbf.jpg
I won't post it here, because I didn't make the sushi, a friend of mine did, all I did was construct it. Funny thing, 2 seconds after i took the picture, it fell apart, the rice wasn't sticky enough.

So, AC is about 3-4 weeks away and this will be another first for me, because this is actually the first time I have flown on plane, since i was about 7 years old. I'm happy yet, not ready for it, but like my brother said to me, "just roll with it, you will do fine"

Something got me to thinking, on july 25th of this year, it will be my 5th year with my work, and I can't believe I've been there that long. but also, this year, I have worked in retail for about 10 years. But if I could change time and rearrange things, I would do it, but then again, I'm actually happy where I am at.

Time does fly, and well, enjoy every minute of it.

cookies are awesome.

Well, I haven't done a update journal in a good amount of time, so here we go.

One, I'm going to AC, just got the flight stuff today, I've been putting it off for a good amount of time, because I've been a bit scared about it, but I finally said, lets do it, and I got it done. Thank you for everyone that helped me get where I need to go :3

Two: Work...lets skip it, because it sucks.

Three: I've been having a bit of health scare, and well, I'm trying to take care of it. most of it has been stress issues and well, I do have a stress problem, so I'm trying to ease it out and get better. one step at a time.

Four: Creative spark is slowly coming back.

Thank you everyone, for everything. I hope I get to chat more with everyone soonish.

Take care,
-Landis f

Heya everyone,

Here is my problem in a nutshell: I have never booked a flight in my life, and well, I'm a bit worried and a bit clueless on what to do.

So, I need help/guidance on what to do, what websites are the best (and won't screw me over) to get my flight tickets, transportation to the hotels, baggage and suit stuff, etc.

Thanks everyone and I hope I will see you there.

:)

Heyo everyone,

I have a weird question, since con season is coming up and I kinda don't want to drive long distances, what airline do you use the most and is the most friendly?

Also, since I will bringing a suit, what type of suitcases or containers should I get?

I just want to have all of my bases covered.

Thanks!

-Landis F.

Merry christmas to you and everyone! May the new year bring awesome stuff to ya!

I just now realize that I haven't updated my journal in two months, time goes fast sometimes.

well, here's is what happening lately:

survived another black friday (yay) just working those holiday hours.

playing games, alot, although I would like to chat more, but I'm extremely shy about it.

enjoying those holiday treats and delicious sweets.

other than that, not much is really happening, which is good.

hope everyone has a great day, no matter what day it is!

A couple of days ago, I got my full suit from  kilcodo and it fits! It's comfy and awesome! Thank you once again :)

Got a small cheesecake for my bday, a strawberry flavored one ^^ it's so good.

time to go, see everyone later.

It's late September, it's getting colder, and the fall/winter releases has begun. Need to play more games and not just watch netflix all of the time (although I've been watching more Sgt. Frog than anything)

Gonna be another year older, and all I want to do is to relax, go out for a sushi dinner and a movie (mostly see lion king 3d), that's all about it, just keep it calm and simple, and maybe some pie (key lime, anything with chocolate, or peanut butter)

I'm thinking about taking a vacation and visit some friends (besides AC), one place I do wanna go is Florida or NYC, and also go to at least a WWE pay-per-view event.

Things are still going ok here, new place jitters.

have fun everyone.

Heyo,

Well, I'm done moving and living into my new apartment. got my cable and everything hooked up and ready to go.

My xbox live and PSN gamertag are:
(xbox) kiba ichi
(psn) kiba_ichi
,and hope to challenge ya in some gaming or just watch netflix.

question, for some reason, on PSN, i'm keep getting DNS errors, yet my router is right next to the ps3, so i don't know why it kicked me out of playing some games, does anyone know what to do? (i have a linksys N router model e1000, if that helps)

Have a awesome day everyone.

Hello everyone.

On Thursday, I'm moving to my new place (with my brother, it's right near my work) and well, I wont have internet from the 31st to when i get everything all set up. And yep, I will finally have cable, so I can do all of the wonderful stuff I couldn't do, thanks to a bandwidth cap. However, if you want to get up with me during my move, email and txt will work, along with AIM mobile. I can't wait for this move, I think I am ready, still a bit scared/nervous about it.

On the side of cooking, I want to learn how to make BBQ, like shredded beef/pork, etc...where is a good website I can get some really good recipes?

I will have PSN and XBOX LIVE up and running when i get done with the move, so hopefully you will see me more often.

I hope everyone is safe and sound during the crazy events of this past week (earthquake plus hurricane).

Take care,
-landis f.

You know I could say something witty here, but meh, alot of things have been happening, but let me get to the biggest news of them all...

I'M MOVING.

that's right, I'm moving away from the parents home, to a new apartment where I will be living with my brother and his GF. the cool thing is that the place is about 5 minutes away from my work, but I'm still gonna drive there, roads are scary.

which bring me to my second point...

I WILL BE GETTING CABLE INTERNET

you don't know how long I have waited, and how much joking I get from work about it. when we get everything squared away, I will be getting comcast (which if anyone can help me out getting a good bundle, I need mostly internet and tv, that's it, nothing too fancy)
in the new place. and when I do, guess what I would be getting to play...

PSN AND XBOX LIVE

so if you like to add me to your list and suggest some games to play, let me know.

(and yes, my brother is cool about me suiting)

the move in date is sept 1st, so that week, I will be turning off my previous internet, but you can contact me through AIM (it goes to my cell) or my cell (just txt only)

(the reason why I am so happy about moving...it's my 1st time, and well, it's about time.)

that's pretty much about it. time to go grab some food, and enjoy the day.

In the immortal words of the road warriors "What A Rush!"

the week started bad for me because of some work stuff happening, causing me to be faint and not feeling well, I was afraid it was going to carry over to my trip, which in the beginning it did, but by the weekend, it went away.

I wore my suit not much on friday, because i was so shy about it (I'm still shy, like extremely shy) but by saturday, I did wear it in the parade and alot more, still got to be more energetic about it, I'm just a shy husky.

I have to thank alot of furs for making this weekend so special to me, so I'm gonna to try my best to list, so here we go.  theneonknight,  larus (extra special thanks to larus, he saved my sanity and my day)  dayken,  rangethebeagle, &  woods (extremely fun roommates, so much squish and katamari, and apparently to woods, I can answer my calls and open doors in my sleep)  blimpwolf &  captainfurry (the best ever, I can not thank you guys enough for everything, it was so fantastic! Thank you so, so, so, so very much ^^)  dmk (I'm glad you liked the burrito), orion-j (thank you for letting me store the suit during the con, thank you so much)  raccoondrew,  frozenflame,  zorrofeta,  gillpanda,  bangabear,  kazecat,  nickwolf,  odendo,  nemo, and extra special thanks to  kilcodo for making my partial, thank you very much. Thanks to everyone I met during this weekend, all of you are very extra special!


This trip was a experience and a learning lesson for me.

Thank you everybody,
-Landis F (and apparently, the F now stands for fatty, blame  rangethebeagle for that)

Yep, I'm going, can't wait.

Plus, I'm gonna suit up this year, still shy about it.

Can't wait to see everyone!

hey all,

I need some help, I got a couple of images i want to get laminated for a badge, however, what places do anyone recommend?

also, if anyone has a lamination machine, let me know.

thanks ^^

Wow, thank you everyone who commented or fav my pictures, you really help build up my confidence.

I'm still extremely shy, but with time, I shall overcome!

nothing much on the front here, I got a new promotion at work, I'm a Assistant Manger now, and transferred to a new store.

*hugs everyone*

I hope everyone has a good day/week/month/year and thank you :)

-landis f

 theneonknight got a room for AC, but no roomies, go to his page and note him about the room, he will help you out if you need a room for AC.

Thanks

Dumb question, but does anyone have a lamination machine, and if you do, can you laminate a few badge pics for me, I got enough lanyards, and I will pay you for doing them. Or if someone can help me pick out a good lamination machine to get under 30 bucks (i checked on amazon, but i don't know which ones are good).

I don't wanna take it to a store to get it laminated, because I don't want to raise questions.

Thanks ^^

Just wanna give a quick update on whats been going on.

a couple of weekends ago, I had to attend a funeral and a wedding and work a pokemon event in the same weekend. it was sad, fun, don't like much beer, and know how to cheat some wifi spots around the mall to get free mystery gifts.

lately, just been depressed on and off, I know it could be something seasonal, but my moods have been teetering, so I'm trying to look on the good side of things.

I think i need to be open more, just more outgoing and don't care about what people might say.

thanks to upcoming things at work, my vacation time is now in june, and yep, my vacation is AC weekend, so I hope I get to see everyone again, and hopefully a few surprises in store.


that's all for now, and please help others.

wow, I haven't updated since the holidays, so...how is everyone?

lately, things here been like a roller coaster, up and screaming down. hopefully the ride will slow down come February.


I hung out with  larus today, we went to a chinese buffet and just talked. it was well worth it ^^

I've been trying to get some asian recipes to make. mostly if it has beef or chicken in it, I'm not trying to make sushi, trust me :P if anyone has ideas where to get them, let me know :)

well, I hope everyone has a great month, and hopefully NO MORE SNOW!

From this fat husky to you, have a wonderful, safe, and non crazy Merry Christmas or merry festivis or the feast of alvis, or whatever you wanna celebrate


You all rock, No matter what!
