Posted 8 years agoHa ha you didn't think to see me here... did ya? Well the Internet still works so welcome back.
Hard work has taught me well. It's put hair on my chest and let me see who deserves my attention and loving care. I think I lost count how many years I've been in this nutty fandom but I think it's about 4 years. I think it goes without saying that you see a little of everything in this lovely little sub-culture. The good, the bad, the ugly, the stuff we don't even want to mention, and the usual that isn't so weird after all. I am stating the obvious too soon? Well, that's because we all can relate somewhere on this level. That is foundation after all, trying to feel welcome and respected.
Between all the madness of life comes all the responsibilities of being an adult. That's the person to hold the roof up on the house and to keep everything in check. It's also to be the person there for your spouse when she needs you most. Time is something we all never have enough of. I could spend an eternity with my spouse..because she deserves it and I'm wise enough to recognize it.
It also goes without saying that I'm really tired of how immature some people get these days. It seems like people will make a lot of noise when you have things that they don't have. i.e. hatters gonna hate. (nowadays saying of the expression) I work hard and that is why I am at the level where I'm at. The sky is the limit on what we all can do but it is completely unnecessary to scream, swear and act like a complete child online. I mean really, come say it to my face if you have a problem..if you have a problem with me. Before you do though, stop and think about all things I have to juggle in my life. I run a business, I sell things, I make sure the product reaches it's destination, I keep the customer(s) happy, I try to keep the home front in check, I try to keep myself in check, this list goes on so don't let me start to bore you. I really don't care if some certain people have a beef with me. You have your own problems and I have mine. Just don't piss me off and make more noise. Go back where you came from if you want to be a complete shit head. Enough said.
So it's July and that means Anthrocon is in our rear view mirror. This was my fourth one..and I found it rather disappointing. There was some word that someone retired from the year prior and I wonder if that had something to do with it. The panel selection was rather 'lack-luster' and some reason the local liquor store found it necessary to be closed during the convention weekend for renovation... yeah. I mean liquor off a pallet is good enough for me. That's how it is at Sam's club and Aldi's wine selection. Am I excited for Megaplex? Not so much... to me it's drama breeding ground of the locals duking out their nonsense. I'm looking forward to passed it so we all can go back to work and our normal lives. That's my opinion and I know your's probably differs..and that is fine too.
I really don't have a lot more to say for now. I know I'm fortunate for the some of the people in my life that will almost do anything for me.. and you know who you are. Love you Tiffany..and the other close friends I think highly of..you guys mean way more than you realize to me.
Cheers folks. Be safe and be nice to each other out there.

Badges $15 Hand drawn
Posted 8 years agoHey guys I'm taking commissions for badges. They're $15 with shipping and handling. Examples are in my submissions :)
Moving forward
Posted 9 years agoWhat's good peeps and fuzzier alike? I moved, worked hard and then some. But wait! there's more.. well not a whole lot more to be honest. I'm still working almost 8 days a week and doing my things to pay those bills. The lights are on and that's what's important :)
All in all, I made some decisions for the better and I'm feeling quite content with myself. Sometimes you just gotta pull the bandaid all the way off in one shot to feel the effect. Anywho... I had to cut someone out of my life that was clearly just a drag on my inner self from reaching any sort of true happiness. I am somewhat of a sad individual to begin with but I blame that partially on my work/career which seems that the majority of people wouldn't quite understand the effect towards myself. But that's okay, and I don't hold that against anyone. In the meantime, I haven't felt this good in a long time so I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts. Cheers animals

Don't get caught in my wake
Posted 9 years agoGeez ok. This year is gonna get crazy and I gotta take command of it before time slips away. What does that mean? Well, that means resolving issues that don't wanna fix themselves, or the obvious things that only hold me back from proceeding. I'm moving very soon to Marion county Florida. So shout out to the Northern FL furs, let's get to know each other. 2016 is also going to be one of those years where I'm really making decisions that will effect me in the long run. I don't really look forward to many of the things and decisions I'm facing, but I know I gotta take a grip and just get things over and done with. Sitting around will not make progress, this is a valuable lesson for everyone. Hope everyone has started this year on the right foot and if anyone needs some simple advice, drop me a line. Cheers furries
2016
Posted 9 years agoHey everyfur! Just want to wish everyone success and best of luck in 2016. Remember to work hard so we can play hard! Happy New Year ^.^
Just sit back and watch
Posted 9 years agoWhat's good furries? You really feel the momentum come back and slap you when you just stop what you're doing. At least that's how it's been for me lately. It gets very frustrating to work on goals when things get hazy and unwilling in between, those of you who know me well know what I'm talking about. It is also very frustrating putting all your effort into things and not getting any results for rewarding your hard work....but that's a no brainer, and I know many of you experience that time to time. Simple "Thank you's" don't cut the cake--sometimes. Perhaps placing too much effort on finding what completes me is the root of being miserable, since obviously your trying to run from it. All I can do is sit back now and continue what I do best; help others who deserve it. I'm 29 next month..don't really look forward to get any older. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and share some moments with the ones you love. Keep your muzzle clean peeps ^^
Year is coming to a close
Posted 10 years agoHey everyone. It's happened again, the year has passed us by and that means 2016 is just moments away. I am beyond tired right now. The last 3 months has drained me after moving my business, dealing with a crap landlord, ongoing relationship issues, the ongoing struggle to sell things, and the usual. MFF is coming up, be sure to say hi and get a photo with me.
Another Day in Florida
Posted 10 years agoHeya peeps and fuzzier alike. I'm really glad that the summer is slowly coming to a close and really looking forward to MFF on the horizon. This year will be special on it's own since it will be Stealth's first time to appear in Chicago. Not to mention all the awesome people traveling along with me :D But all seriousness, my back still bugs me once in a while, my job reminds me that I'm still alive and I tend to help all those who deserve my hand. I know things are going for me, but one can't help to complain anyway. It must be human nature...and what fun would it be without all the drama in between. Have a good one..drop me a line if you wanna talk.
Such is life
Posted 10 years agoHey peeps and fans. I'm glad July is all wrapped up and in the can.. Anthrocon was amazing as expected along with MegaPlex being the nice after party. Usually this time of the year is the turning point to see how the rest of year will look like. But of course, many things are unpredictable, and you never know what's gonna happen next. I will not be able to attend EuroFurence this year...just too much happening right now. I'm came to peace with many things that was bothering me for a long time, which is great. Of course new problems arise...what else is new? Hope you have a great day!
Tick tock, what's that? That's time slipping away buddy
Posted 10 years agoWhat's good fellow fuzzy animals? I hope everything is going well for you, even if it's not exactly how you wanted it to, but there's gotta be a bright side. These last 3 weeks have really reminded me that I'm getting older and perhaps a little wiser, I should say! But nevertheless, I cannot deny that I should value every moment I can since once the day is done, it's gone, and out of our reach. The saying is that the past repeats itself, so maybe you can't win the fight today--it maybe within arms reach tomorrow. Keep going my friends, don't ever quit...follow the road and you'll find life's little wonders along the way. May peace be with you
Odometer of life keeps on counting
Posted 10 years agoHave you found this a good place to vent? Well, I don't know if this is the best form to express how you feel but it's better then doing nothing at all. If I didn't lose your attention yet, you might as well continue to read. This year ran at a runaway pace for me, and it's already April in the coming weeks. It's always interesting listening to other peoples problems and concerns, furry or not, and comparing them with your own issues/problems. I guess that's where we should be thankful for the friends and things we have, and for things to come. I can't stress it enough that we all should let go of the past, so we can pave our future. Remember to aim for the horizon, and give throttle. Yeah, we all get low and blue on the way, but somehow we find the strength to pickup and continue. No--it's not easy--but what's the point if theres no challenge? You can do it!
EuroFurence
Posted 10 years agoHey friends. I was wondering who was all planning to go to EuroFurence this year. I haven't been to Germany in the last 3 years and now I'm really looking forward to the trip for a change of scenery. This is my first trip to EF, and I hope it is a memorable one.
Find me at these conventions
Posted 10 years agoThe cons I'll be attending this year as follows:
Furry Weekend Atlanta, Atlanta
Anthrocon, Pittsburgh
MegaPlex, Orlando
EuroFurence, Berlin
Be sure to say hi!

When your blue
Posted 10 years agoSometimes I think gravity really gets turned up because not only when I slow down from being stressed, it also drags me down into being sad. But hey, what else is new? My character is blue after all, I guess it comes with the job.
C'mon guys
Posted 10 years agoDon't get your furry license revoked for being a complete moron. There are many of us out there that don't speak our mind of what they really think of some of our fellow furries. Be respectful, and really look at both sides of situation(s) to see if it's really a problem or if you're just being butt hurt over nothing. Wake up and smell the coffee.
Hanging out with non-furs
Posted 10 years agoSo the other night I hung out with one of my non-fur friends and found things to be fun but just rather different. Yes, I had a good time and had much to talk about, but there was a lack of creativity to keep me entertained. So I would call it a 'blah' experience. Of course I don't keep my fuzzy self all to myself, meaning that people who know me know about my hobbies. So after some talking (and what he's heard about the fandom) things came to a conclusion on a happy note. He states "I didn't think it's so bad because you're obviously having a good time." and also "roll with it because your in a better state of mind." I figured I share some recent stuff about me since I'm sure we all had similar stories at some point. -cheers
A year has passed by
Posted 10 years agoI think it's safe to say I been involved in this so called Furry Fandom for a year now. It's been a roller coaster of a ride this last year, meeting many people from all areas of America and beyond. Anthrocon was my very first fur con and I'll never forget it. The arts is what got me hooked.. I was just blown away what some of the artists are able to produce for all of us to see. I'm also getting a year older, hopefully wiser, and looking forward to a year of much success. Cons I'm registered for 2015: FWA, Anthrocon and MegaPlex. I may even be at EuroFurence, so we shall see. Have a good one folks.
Help your fellow friend
Posted 10 years agoSo you may not always get what you want, especially on Christmas, but helping your fellow friend when you can is just as good. I did some good deeds today and made some people really happy by doing so. Material gifts are cool, but when you help your friends to see them smile, it's priceless. Merry Christmas my fuzzy friends.
Not a whole lot to say
Posted 10 years agoThe year is closing up which comes to no surprise. It's Christmas in a few days in case you didn't notice. Looking forward to 2015 with a bunch of plans in the horizon. Hope everyone has an enjoyable Christmas and a wonderful New Year. =Cheers=
2014 is about done
Posted 11 years ago2014 is quickly coming to a close, but it's not over yet :D It's been a roller coaster of a ride for me this year... dove head first into this fandom around February.. lost a close friend of mine in March, met many people along the away--along with some terrific friends. Anthrocon 2014 was my first fur-con, MegaPlex, Elliot's Fall Gathering, and up next MidWest Furfest. So I'm still new around here, but I'm getting the hang of it. Be sure to look for me at MFF, love to say hi and have a conversation with you..
Another Day in Paradise
Posted 11 years agoWell, here's my first Journal on FA. It's been a crazy long summer and the heat really needs to get outta Florida by now...seriously. I have to give credit to everyone who fur suits in this climate. Your determined, and I give you a thumbs up. For those who don't know me that well, I'm a straight blue coonfox on the far west side of Orlando. Anthrocon 2014 was my first fur-con and you may have seen me at MegaPlex this year. A really awesome friend is constructing my fur suit, so be sure to say hi and receive a free hug when it all gets that far. Like to know more about me? Just ask, I'm open minded and promise I won't bite. Stay fuzzie my friends.
