Figured we needed a matching thread for happy thoughts, seeing as though I see the Complaints thread up all the time.
I'll go first. Definitely sunshine and rainbows. Definitely.

Yes.
Wine, the smell of fresh bread, and good cheese.
a nice, nice nice shower. A hot shower that steams up the bathroom.
and sleep, after that - long, deep sleep, followed by waking up, getting up in the morning and making a big breakfest.
Than conclude with watching morning cartoons on netflix as if I were a kid again.

RRRRRAVE TOMORROW : )
baby animals.
my pet bearded dragons when they are being cuddly <3
My bunny love *holds him close and kisses*
Pokemon Black and Dragon age 2 <3
Some more from me:
1) Movin' to Victoria this summer. :D
2) Getting Windows 7 to behave itself.
3) Hot oatmeal.
Pokemon Black/white for sure. Also, the Nintendo 3DS. <3 I can't wait. Especially since I gave my DS lite to my brother for christmas and haven't been able to play with my pokemans since. D:
Also, Brownies, and pancakes. And kittens.
: drewdle February 25, 2011, 10:44:19 -07:00Movin' to Victoria this summer. :D
Awwwww! So Nanaimo will be down two furs? /sadface
Receiving an i7-980X processor as a bonus from the Bawse. I grumped a bit about how slow my renders were trucking along. Lo and behold, hexcore outta nowhere!

Awwwww! So Nanaimo will be down two furs? /sadface
Afraid so. Not to worry however, I believe two furs from Port Alberni are moving down here this summer. So things may balance out. The only school I can go to for the programs I want to take is UVic, so there I have to go. But honestly, I love Victoria. I'm totally psyched to go.

Oooo, fast! :) I got a new (to me) AMD Athlon II X3 445 based machine last month. Three cores at 3.1Ghz beats two at 2.0Ghz. :) What do you render?
Oh, and at the risk of thread derailment, something that else that makes me happy: my lovely wife. :)
Well, you guys had better still come up for any Nanaimo meets! hehe It was nice meeting you at the last one but I didn't get a chance to meet your lady!
Something that made me happy today... I met up with a former coworker and she treated me to lunch at Tims and gave me a bag with some little presents in it for my birthday (tomorrow). :) I like being acknowledged!
Quiet country roads. The scent of wood stoves going is nice too.
Ooh, Nag Champa incense makes me happy. :) *burning some now*
New relationships, nights spent talking and cuddling. <3 Entering a community and feeling accepted by it right from the start, you guys are all awesome :-3

Good friends who are there for you when you need them, :3
Kitties, tea, and a good meal.
Rum and coke!
MY CUDDLEBUTT!!!!!
Life is looking up. Friends that turned their back on me are starting to mend fences. New job, health care issues fixed.
I just got my food safe certification level 1! Yay me.! :)

Together? I can't imagine a more killer hangover. But to each their own.
Another: Boathouse Farms Asiago Yogurt Cheese dressing thing. Delicious. Even if the salad only has cheese and spinach in it.
At this particular moment, Mojitos *glee* and being able to afford walls and a roof with which to keep out this unholy cold.
All this snow makes me happy in the wintertime!!
Then again, grew up with it...
...Hn... Something else.
I love that I am starting out in the baseline of my career in a busy restaurant, and that I have had this opportunity to come to Vancouver.
Hot fresh coffee, cigarettes and the promise of a new job ^^

Best feeling ever!
Knowing that no matter how crazy the world seems, you can always find acceptance somewhere!
watching a neutered tom cat try to mate with a queen in heat. I know it's mean, but it's just SO FUNNY.
Also, candy, :3
Knowing good friends will always try to help you out.

Played the combined publisher demo of the project I'm working on; Until now, I had not actually seen the finished product my artwork became. I nearly shat brix when I saw my art coming to life in the beginnings of a functional, AAA game.

cardgames
Saying you're more evil than a YuGiOH villain is like comparing yourself to Rita Repulsa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rita_Repulsa). At least try to aim for Ganondorf style evil...

also Ganon is a joke villan like Bowser now, he has been in every game other than the GBA ones, and Majora's Mask.

I finally slept after going almost 50 hours without sleep! Huzza! for 12 hours of solid sleep XD
LK is back on youtube making YuGiOh parodys
Being out of school for two weeks with nothing to do! Can't wait for Spring Break! Road Trips and lots of time for drawing and reading comics :3
I have coffee, I have milk, the fridge is full again, and I'm going out to Simon Frasier tomorrow, to finalize my personal curriculum for the next year.
I was able to buy groceries. Actual food! I am so happy. :)
my granma has a recipe for chocolate milk syrup. Unfortunately I always add the butter while it's too hot, and so it separates and teh end result is kind of.. fatty/grainy and a little gross. but mmmm it makes delicious chocolate milk all the same.
My cough is almost gone
I called nintendo to set up a repair for the DS I bought off craigslist. 15 year old kid sold me a DS with a broken screen for $50, I feel so ripped off. >> If he wasn't a 15 year old kid, I would've torn him a new one. Oh well.
Anyway, the thing to be happy about, 1 - I wasn't on hold long and got it all set up to have my DS in working order again by the weekend, :D
and 2 - Their hold music is the mario theme, and I couldn't stop giggling about it, X3
My good friend Kaninchen stopped by yesterday and he had two Isaac Asimov short story collections that I don't have in my library! Casebook of the Black Widowers and Asimov's Mysteries ^^.
Aperently my random drawings are good? some guy asked to see them and asked why im not doing Manga, half my little chibi faces aperently look like they are from Full Metal Alchemest, and i just thought they were cute little things i did while watching Let's Plays
Finally got around to watching two movies today that I have been meaning to watch for a while now. Technotise: Edit I Ja (Edit and I) was a rather interesting anime that comes out of Serbia and Paranoia: One point O, which was a mind F***K all the way through. I do love obscure indie films and seldom mentioned Animes!
I bought some insoles today so my feet wouldn't hurt at work. They work really well. :)

i finally got to the bottom of the missing tax info mystery, and can get my taxes done, :]
took for fucking ever though.
I'm making cookies.
I'm going to carthage's house for cookies! :p
I wish, lol cookies would be awesome right now.
My tax return is gonna be deposited into my account on Thursday. Yahoo!!
Did the taxes today. For the first time in a long time, I have extra money. and not just $40 extra that I rationalized the hell out of to avoid feeling guilty about spending it, but real extra money. I can actually pick up the stuff that I've been putting off for weeks, and maybe replace my driver's licence, which I lost almost a year ago. I can get that much closer to getting my life back on track again. I hate it when finances throw me off for so long, but it does feel nice to have the financial freedom, even short lived, to bring myself closer to a better life. And it relieves enough stress that I'm not burning money that could be better spent. mostly. n.n;;
And tomorrow, I'm buying a table! YAY!
Got an awesome minecraft world :D
mountans and valleys gallore!
Yay EmoFox! It is great getting more than you expect.
I did mine and checked on the H & R Block website, and supposedly I am getting $1250... I hope that is right. lol
Oh i know. It's so awesome being able to buy stuff that I've been putting off forever. We've been meaning to get a table for almost a year now, but hadn't been able to afford it. We've needed a new duvet for a few years now, the one we've been using has lost most of its stitching, and the feathers have long since clumped to the sides, so it hasn't been very warm. It's been such a long year, it's nice to have pieces of furniture that make the place seem more home-like. :D
Now I just need to clean up the mess. -.-
im SOOOOOO happy about the new Silent Hill game, its going back to the roots layed by the first game.
Got my $1250! Just paid off my credit card. Now I am just waiting for them to call (like they do every morning between 7 and 8am)... then I can tell them and give them my online banking confirmation number and they can stop calling me.
Just got accepted into University of Victoria's Theatre Department for the 2011-2012 year, and will be moving down there for the end of April. Already found a place. :)
I just got back from clothes shopping... $215 on new things. My boss will be pleased. She keeps nagging me to buy more clothes. She hates that I have so many camisoles and don't like to wear shirts over them. I work in the back, our of view of customers, so I don't see why it matters. But anyway, a couple of my new shirts are sleeveless, but they are really classy so it should be ok.
> Moved into nice new place downtown
> More disposable income per month
> Easier to get my computer built faster now :D
I rediscovered my love for Renard Queenton's music today. Just gotta love prolific Canadian furry electronic music producers :D
Got a place that takes cats in Victoria! Will be on the move as of mid-April. Also, went job hunting for the wifey yesterday and prospects looked surprisingly good. Now with some optimism my car will hold together until we get there. :)
I got up early enough this morning there was coffee left in the in the pot. :)
Usually I sleep in and the family drinks it all but not today!
My grandma is visiting the Island from Surrey and is taking me to lunch and shopping today! Yay!
I had a nice long chat with my friend who lives in Sackville, New Brunswick today. That and she is coming back to the coast for a visit at the end of next month...I can't wait to see her again, it's been too long since the last time we have hung out together. XD
Just got a HTC Desire HD. Booooyeaaah!!
My grandma paid my outstanding dentist bill. Well, I paid it and when I got back to the car, she gave me the cash. I tried to refuse it, but she wouldn't take it back. :D
grandmas are awesome... unless they are senile, but that's a story for the things to complain about board.

I only got into Doctor Who when David Tenant was the Doctor. I <3 him!

Completely agree~! If I had to rate the new doctors, it would have to be:
3. Chris
2. David
1. Matt ~
I love all 3 doctors because they all have their own unique personalities that make us laugh in different ways, but Matt Smith wins the gold for me <3 :D
I'm also excited to see the whole mess of new enemies the doctor has in store for him later on in the series! X3

Holy shit have I had to run through a lot of bacon and yogourt this week! D8
Some people - and I swear to god they're actually doing this - are buying 24 packages of bacon and yogourt and putting 12 on each bill.
ALL FREAKING DAY! BACON AND YOGOURT! :vik:
The side kicks and campbell soups haven't been as popular for some reason. I'm not sure why the yogourt and bacon is.
Zenia, I sincerely hope you're not one of those people who stockpile on sale items like there's going to be a cold war. You make our warehouse personnel very unhappy during inventory time.
When customers buy over 2 of the same thing, cashiers are supposed to scan one item and change the quantity automatically through the computer. This makes keeping track of all the plu codes a real bitch when we have to take stock. DX

'Cause Sidekicks and Campbells is already almost $1 each so it isn't a big deal. Bacon and Yogurt are more money usually.

Nah. Maybe I would if I had the space to keep it all and a car to bring it all home in. I have to share a fridge with two other people and we don't have a freezer chest. I ended up getting 3 packs of bacon, 2 yogurts, 4 soups and 4 sidekicks. :)

Nah. Maybe I would if I had the space to keep it all and a car to bring it all home in. I have to share a fridge with two other people and we don't have a freezer chest. I ended up getting 3 packs of bacon, 2 yogurts, 4 soups and 4 sidekicks. :)
Okay then, I forgive you. :-\
The tooth isn't as bad as I thought it was (It was a minor in and out fix), and the costs are covered. Jaw still hurts, but there's not much I can do about that, save take more ibuprofen when it's time to do so.
In other news. I might be getting laid in two weeks! ;D
Too bad I might be contagious, I might have to call it off.
But the thought of hot dickings has made me super happy right now! :D

Is the server private or public? I've recently got in to minecraft, I've found it's more fun with other people.
Congratulations on getting in to University! All the more so because it's a Masters! :o You will be of the minority in the furry community having such a high level of education!
It must have been a lot of hard work to get in, I can't imagine.

The server is private for the moment until we figure out how to offer donation incentive; The cost of running the server is manageable with the individuals we have on it now. The cost will have to increase if we open it to the public, and we're unsure if we want the headache of permitting public access.

To refer to my last post,
It would seem seeing this person could turn out to be so much more than just a casual laying.
My apologies to the administrators for writing this stuff on here at all, but I consider you guys my friends and this recent event has made me so happy I have to share it with you! ;D
The icing on the cake is that it turns out I'm not 'contagious' for those who saw my post in the 'complaint' thread. :-X
Also the weather is beautiful today!
I have so much to be happy about right now. >w<

:D I have two job interviews tomorrow! One is at a call center (with medical/dental benefits after 6mos), the other is at a laundry facility (union). I have seen what people do at laundry facilities and it may be out of my fitness level, but some aspects I am familiar with. Depending on what exactly the call center does, I might like it since I get to sit down and won't hurt my back.

Bacon. Bacon is amazing. Especially the "Hertels" random weight packages I get from the butcher shop beside the shop I work at. It is more expensive than the kind you get at the grocery store.... but it is so worth it. I will buy like, 4 packs, then cook them all up, one pack at a time, in the oven and then have pre-cooked bacon for sandwiches and wraps and stuff. :)
Picked up a BlackBerry Bold today, my first smartphone. Quite happy with it.

Update after watching it: Wow, just from the first two episodes, I know I'm going to love the new season <3
One of my favourite lines in episode two that made me tear up just from hearing the lines said in this particular scene:
-----
" Why can I still hear her? "
" Is it a recording? "
" ..Uhm, it's default's still alive, this is current... wherever she is right now, this is what she's saying.. "
" Amy can you hear me, we're coming for you. Whereve you are, we're coming, I swear.. "
" She can't hear you.. I'm so sorry, it's one way. "
" She can always hear me, doctor... always... wherever she is, and she always knows that I am coming for her, do you understand me? Always.. "

I heard about that tribute to Doctor Who on South Park from a friend. I can't wait to see that episode; I missed it earlier x3
I was just a knock off of the Robot, nothing really tribute worthy.
clearly, you are not a whovian. Any whovian would've gotten the joke.

I can't wait to get my tuxedo for prom
I think I'm gonna get a fitted tux
I was happy about something but then something really scary happened and now I don't remember what I was happy about, so whatever it was, that's something to be happy about.
ah Prom. I remember prom. I looked so pretty, and girly. <3
As for things to be happy about. X-files ftw, XD
Well I'm happy this morning (despite the pain I am in) because later today I am going up to a friends place to get 2 books on how to speak & read Japanese and a 120gig IDE HD for my desktop computer. :)
I wore a kilt to my prom. Tux's were too mainstream. ^-^
Thing to be happy about: Having fresh coffee at home for the first time in four days.
Tomorrow I get my shoulder fixed! :D
I wonder how long it will be before I can type properly again.
I remember prom~ my aunt made me a really pretty red dress~! :D One thing I certainly remember about prom, was at the end of the night, students were dancing on chairs and tables, and in the lobby of the ballroom we were in, students were goofing off around the piano and furniture, lol. (prom was at the Pan Pacific, across from the Convention Center) The whole grade got lectured for our behaviour at prom the next day. xD Good times...
Something to be happy about: new episode of Glee tonight and new episode of Doctor Who on Saturday~ so excited!! :D

My own prom was so conservative and boring. Teachers guarded every doorway wielding walkie-talkies, the music selection was picked by a teacher - as was the menu, there were long pauses throughout the night where we were required to be completely silent when another stuffy old fart would tell us their life story, and a third of our graduating class was held up at the door and sent home for showing up inebriated. Not to mention the PAC was there, looking on with eyes full of pride at their miserable spawn. The music they chose for us was terrible! A bunch of '90's bubblegum pop crap! It might have been better, but none of the student counsel electives wanted to be bothered working with such people, so each of them resigned. :-X
Our prom was organized and hosted by a bunch of wealthy suburbanite parents and educational politicians. Apparently the year before ours those pesky young people were doing such things dancing on tables, so the school staff was rather fascist with us. :-\
edit: Lol, sorry to dump all over the happy thread.
I've been eating fried samosas and candy all week and I haven't gained any weight. That's something to be happy about eh? ;)
I was craving something delicious, with meat, and cheese, I didn't think I had anything like that but then I opened my freezer and found a box of pizza pops :D
having the best recipe for rice pudding, and having the things to make it, whenever I want. <3 comfort food ftw.
Ooh. Share the recipe? =)
Listening to my collection of Glee music on www.grooveshark.com (http://www.grooveshark.com) and doing arts. I feel so relaxed~

I didn't realize they had sci-fi magazines in 1882. Particularly ones dealing with "digital" as we know it now. That's some writer. I bet everyone thought he was crazy.
seriously though, i don't think either one is a rip off of the other; digimon deals with monsters living in a digital world that evolve temporarily; Pokemon is a whole other universe. If anything, Monster Rancher was the rip off of BOTH of them. Stupid monster rancher... Also, every reference I can find to "digimon short story" referes to Digimon Tamers 1984, which was a short story written for a sci-fi magazine. It wasn't written in 1984, however, it took place in 1984. Which means pokemon came first.
to be happy about -- realizing that self improvement strategies are working after all! slowly but surely. yaaay!

I'm happy again! oh man it is good to feel happy again.
I found a box of sugar dates from 2006 at the back of our cupboard. :)
Still good. I've been sampling them.
Loving Desperate Housewives very much.

~~Shadowwolf
Remembering the TV show Teen Titans :D

This has been an awesome weekend, got my suit
(the whole set) for $189; it's all mine now, I went to
a party last night and my moves brought a crowd,
and I have 2 canvas to paint on.
I couldn't be happier XD
Made it to Van and back home with out any major incidents yesterday. =P
Crackle Nail polish is amaaaazing~ <3
Homemade pasta dinner. Whole wheat linguine with a homemade tomato sauce; Orange peppers, basil, oregano, thyme, minced onion, olive tapenade and three bulbs of garlic in thinned tomato paste. Not cloves of garlic, by the by. Bulbs. I'm fairly sure I could peel the paint off passing cars with my garlic breath at the moment, but hey. So damn tasty.
New music Freshly downloaded on my Ipod. <3

For the past four days my monitor has been really messed up, I was probably going to post in the help and advice board later tonight and call the usual tech guy on Tuesday after one last stab. I wasn't able to fix it for so long, but an hour ago I figured it out! Yay me!
Almost done drawing my ref sheet! And developed a neat way to keep me from getting distracted SCREW YOU ADD I GOT BRAINCELLS OF STEEL and a watch.. >.>
BALLS OF STEEL!
I'm going to the new Pirates Of The Caribbean movie with my friend Blair :3 not expecting anything epic, but i want to see Jack Sparrow be a tipsy drink again.
Starting to look like my studio-boss is getting close to finalizing a new publisher contract after our last one fell through the cracks. Fingers crossed on this one, they should be reviewing our concept game in the next two days.
Well I din't wake up dead this morning and that is something to be happy about. =P
Homemade pizza:
Cappicola, provolone, fresh tomatoes and basil. ;D
streams with good music, yay! dancing makes me feel so good! also I think someone is making some art for me :D
I invited myself over to a friends' place today, and they begrudgingly accepted my invitation. XD
I'm bringing food so they don't hate me for it.
I didn't want to be stuck in my own house any longer, I need to get out and see people other young people! ;P
Bawse likes the new artwork for the auditorium area. Evokes a perfect feel, he says. Glee!
Finally got a full ref sheet of fursona even though its pretty basic!
Being able to wolf down three grill cheese sandwiches and
a hand full of baby carrots.
That's all I needed. yummy yum

Read a nice short story by Varg Vikernes earlier while listening to his new ablum "Fallen". Now I am going over his "Guide to the Norse Gods and their Names" brushing up on my knowledge of the Æsir and their kin.

I was at the CBC Big Screen when that happened. I didn't see Rain though, but my friend from BCIT did.
Well I got my grad tile started and finished today at school,
can't believe I got it done.
For those who don't know what a grad tile is; we are given a
tile (like the tile for flooring) and what we do is we paint on them.
Then there placed on the wall with the other grad tiles from earlier
years. For mine, I obiviously plopped my fursonas head on it, and I
got some positive criticism on it too, I feel happy to be creative.
My dead teacher might finally be able to see the Canucks win. ;w;
It was his dream before he passed.
WOOOOHOOOO!! SCOTTY MCREERY WON AMERICAN IDOL!!!! *squee~!* d~^0^~b
american idol? they still do that?
I have a plan. and this plan is getting better all the time. :3 also, some guy gave me his day pass just as I was activating a 3 zone faresaver. w00t!
today I had a fierce battle against my instincts, I won.
Having fun learning how to read and write both Japanese and Norwegian. Next Languages are German and Icelandic. :D
The Canucks of Vancouver (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGHnm5V8Kns#)
that makes me happy
Pizza for breakfast yummy :P
There is only one person on this planet that has the ability to remind me that no matter where I am on the planet I will always be loved. It is a amazing feeling really. <3<3<3<3<3
I have carrots to crunch on, homemade onion dip to dunk them in, Throwback to drink, the sun is shining on a new crop of fresh home-grown spices and seasonings next to my desk, making the room smell delightful... it is a good day. I suppose I'm happy about the chance to be happy for once. :-3
I got an appointment for the doctor on Thursday. I thought it would be a longshot to get one so quick. Goodbye lady-time, hello almost 100% effective contraception!

Also, tomorrow i'm starting my online courses. double w00t!

New translated subbed anime posted~ Watching it as I type. <3333
You know I have been on a anime kick recently, been waiting on the next Deadman Wonderland and Gosick episodes. While I have been waiting for them I got back into The Melody of Oblivion and Blood+.
I've been quite content with the anime I have been watching lately,it's been a nice change of pace from all the Marvel cartoons I've been watching with the rest of the roommates.
After feeling sick for the last couple of days, I'm starting to feel better.
Done sketching my comic! Just need to do ink and add details now! :thumbs:

Went for a nice long liesurely walk around the city today. My feet are killing me, but it was nice to get out of the boring old peninsula.
Checked out a couple 'alternative' stores . . . seriously considered purchasing a sex toy. It was a good day. ;3
Stanley Cup Final Game 1 ticket. Section 116, row 25, seat 111 (effectively centre ice, lower bowl).
AMAZING GAME.
I'm happy with how my profile on this site turned out. :birdy:
Stretched out on my bed with Chilli curled up at my feet and enjoying yet another anime. Ah I must say I am really enjoying this netbook <3
I went out to lunch with grandma today. She told me about all the friends of hers that died since we last talked, and which organs are failing her.
Oh grandma, I get a kick out of talking to her! ;D
My grad ceremony is in a couple of days, same for

Hey guys. I totally got laid last night. 8)
Jeez thanks for sharing Ren o_o
Well my friend that has been in the hospital for the the last 3 weeks with a staff infection in his leg is recovering nicely so I am going to go visit him today. I'm bringing my acoustic guitar with me so he can get some practice in while I am visiting.
Humping someone you met online the first time you met them?
How furry of you, Renwaldo :-3
He didn't say he was the one doing the humping!

Well it's not like I let him jump and mount me the second I got through his door! :roll:
It started with a few chugs of Vex, some stimulating conversation, then a massage . . . I'll leave the rest of the night up to your imagination. Don't want to tarnish the good name of this forum with my sluttish escapades.
Besides, I know what Ember does for a living. Teehee! :gay:
Am I the only male who doesn't really seem to give a damn about his libido here? I suppose that's be something to be happy about; I don't really care that I'm not having sex lately, because I seem to be more productive without a relationship to worry about. Yay.

Ren: Yep!
Another thing to be happy for... just spent 3 hours or so on personal grooming. Making sure everything is awesome. I had neglected myself for so long, it took ages to do. I think I emptied out the hot water tank like, 1.5 times. :P Now I am gonna do my nails. :) Hot pink!
Kittens.
Well, prom and the after party is tomorrow.
As well as a couple of my life-long friends are
coming up from Langley and I'm getting some
booze for these nights, how can this weekend
possibly get any better than this.
I am so very excited!! XD

My ADD is getting way better because of pills, support from a good friend and unhealthy obsession over japanese animation!
Had the best day ever! And not 'cause I ended my 6 year celibacy streak (which I did) but because it was with someone I really like. I am such a girl. XD

It's the summer season. Everybody's getting frisky. I had so much fun the first time, I'm doing it again this Sunday.
I'm really happy for a friend of mine, who's recently found someone special. He used to go on about how he'd never find anyone, almost as if he'd given up, and then the right person at the right time steps in and now they're together. I told him he'd find someone, but did he believe me? lol nope. And I'm really happy for him because he's really happy now, and so is she~ heh, you know you who you are, dude. Congrats :)

i was finally able to treat my pets for their fleas, :D
Hermes is doing much better, (he was suffering FAD; flea allergy dermatitis) and his fur should be grow back in a couple of weeks. All the cats have been inside pretty much ever since, and all very cuddly and happy. <3 i missed my kitties.
the dog, is still annoying XD
Found out yet again how much my kitty cat loves me and misses me when I am gone. I was gone for about 34 hours and when I got home from my trip over to Delta, Kevin was aaaaaaaall over me. Just meowing and purring and headbutting me. I love that cat.
I visited with my friend in the hospital again, he's doing well and will be getting out this coming Monday. Then I went out to my buddy's place out in Halfmoon Bay to sample his cherry homebrew beer. It is really good beer! I have a decent buzz going and am in good company. It has been a nice relaxing day of visiting with good friends. =)
Enjoying some Pink Lemonade Bacardi Breezers That is all. 8)
Was asked out on a nice date this Wednesday. Which is neat because. . . we didn't. . . we skipped that step before. :birdy:

Partied hard last week with my friends.
Watching Les Miserables the 25th Anniversary on channel 27~ if I could be in a production of Les Miserables, I'd be 10x happier than I am just watching it right now. <33 (:
I blew a whole paycheque on skinny jeans, a t-shirt and a nice vest from 'Le Chateau.'
It put a dent in my credit rating but I'll be damned if I don't look magnificent in that little getup! :gay:
Some random person I passed in a skytrain station told me I'm hot and complimented my tail :D what a nice boost, I really needed that.
I only have six to seven days left of school, then after that, I can start doing whatever the hell I want to do. Twelve years of that bull inch is finally done!
I start training for a new job on Friday. My first job in a fine dining restaurant.
I
AM
SO HAPPY!
Woot, congrats Jester, sounds like super fun! :D :thumbs:
So excited to work on my super secret project~ still deciding whether i want to make a full size with what I have or a half size due to the state of the box, but I'll make it work. And post pics later when I'm done. :)
I've been earning tons of new watchers with what I've been posting on FA/SF/IB. w00t And comments too. I like those things!
Had a sudden burst of inspiration and creativity to start working on a electronic song. I didn't finish it but I got the majority of it done yesterday. I am quite pleased with how it has turned out so far. The next step is finish it and then master it for stereo. Then I will post it to FA and other sites (soundclick, acidplanet).
I'm glad I'm not a sports fan.
: Sevrin June 15, 2011, 09:20:38 -06:00
I'm glad I'm not a sports fan.
Me too, though I am still a little disappointed. Not like those rioters!!
I am happy that I have finally decided to cut chips/candy out of my diet. I want to lose some weight. Even though my mate likes me just as I am, I want to look and be better. :)
i'm glad to be sports fan; I'm also glad to not be a idiot. Neither the rioting type, nor the type that paints all caucks/sports fans with the same brush as the idiots rioting downtown. *cough*
jesters called me from work. They're all okay, but the restaurant did get tear gassed. Now here's to hoping he gets home safely.
my new longboard finally arrived now for several early morning celebratory drinks then its off to SURF THE PAVEMTNT
Today during the clean up I had people coming up to me saying thank you for helping out with the cleanup today; I felt super happy inside~ I even had one person ask to take my picture (:
I'm pretty happy right now. I finally got around to plugging a 21" monitor into my netbook and I have my logitech game controller behaving like a mouse, because the touch pad on the netbook is loosing it's sensitivity.
my belt doesn't fit anymore, had to cut another hole in it to give it a smaller setting, I've lost over 30lbs in the last 4 months ;D
Way to go Sevrin!
I hope to make progress too. I never had any reason that motivated me enough to lose weight before now... but now I really want to.
It's actually amazingly easy once you get past the first bit, the cravings to eat bad food are pretty strong at first but they get easier to deal with the longer you keep at it. I'm at a point now where eating a sandwich is a treat to me and eating a pizza is something I don't really ever feel like doing; the exercise is always tedious, however.
My motivation to lose weight was already there, but then I found I was at pretty high risk of diabetes (for my age) and that, coupled with my fear of needles, has really motivated me quite a bit.
Found the picture I was taken in on Facebook during the cleanup~ proud to be apart of what happened today and I feel so accomplished and good inside~ : )
My day has only just begun, the sun is shining, have a cup of coffee and I am listening to some nice twanging music (bluegrass).
someone recommended reading this to me as a means for self improvement https://www.stephencovey.com/7habits/7habits.php (https://www.stephencovey.com/7habits/7habits.php) I've noticed that all the things it tells me to do are things I learned to do on my own :D I'm on the road to becoming a highly effective person! my life is freakin great.

Mmmm, Melona, ilu... <3 :'3
I'll be getting my moutain bike pass for the bike park they set up on Whistler mountain, can't wait to get myself and my bike dirty this year.
:D The site is finally back up again!
Huzza for the site being back up! xD
I just finished cleaning my living space (the basement) in preparation for a group of friends of mine coming over to play magic in a hour or so. It sure has been a while since the last time I have had friends over for gaming, it will be a blast! I'm so excited I could burst! XDDDDD
Bursting would be a bad idea. You just cleaned the place!
My rum is not gone (yet, despite my best efforts currently), I have two job interviews forthcoming this week, and I've punched in a ludicrous amount of work on a folio project lately. For once, I can feel good about the climb up from a down period.
the sex toy i ordered two months ago FINALLY came in, after the manufacturer stopped being a douche bag. The online store I ordered it from set me a complimentary lube, for being so patient. Not a shitty little tester either, but a $10 thing of lube. :D
i'm gonna sleep well tonight!
thanks for sharing emo -_-
in other news: cottage cheese 75% off at superstore today! woot! I bought 4, mmm cottage cheese.
I made pulled pork last night/this morning.
First time trying it at home and I grossly underestimated the cook time, but the end product is worth the wait.
Now coffee...
hey, i fpeople are allowed to share the fact that they got laid, I'm allowed to be happy about free lube. so nnnyyyaaaah!
I got another date tonight! This is the first time I've ever made it to the second round!
It's a swank sushi dinner, and he's treating me! :gay: ;D
(also may be getting laid again, and while that's certainly something to be happy about, you guys probably don't want to hear about it every time it happens >.<)
After much searching and many interviews over the past 6 months, I finally have a job. It was cutting it more than a little close moneywise...I am so relieved, now I can focus on other things and relax.
I finally got over my break up with Riley, it wasn't going to work out anyway.
let's just say we both wanted to play catch but neither of us wanted to throw...

Jesters made me chicken ceasar wraps. and he made the ceasar dressig from scratch. it was delicious. nomilicious even.
lol despite being completely stressed out these last few days caused by my mom, I just remembered the funniest thing that happened last week, it was so random, but it really made my day and now I can't stop thinking about it. Basically Kanan, Ry and I were hanging out at the Joyce skytrain bored out of our mind trying to kill time after the dinner meet before we decided to split and go home. Well I randomly suggested that Ry "plank" on this really shot/small bike stand, and none-the less he did, and we noticed across the street where the Bamboo Cafe sits, right on the corner waiting to cross the street to our side was a small group of people cheering Ry on for his planking. They kept cheering him on the whole time they crossed the street when the light was red, and Kanan and I were both lol'ing so hard. XD Oh that was a good night... X'D
Tasty burger. Sometimes simple food is comfort food. Weasel approves. <3
Bacon.
Bacon to work month.
Also, I may actually finish a project! Yay!
Well I won the WH40K tournament at the Mall last night and got a $20 gift certificate for the hobby shop that hosts the tournaments. Then the guy that came in dead last (First and last placings get the prizes at our tournaments) gave me his gift certificate! That was a pretty awesome thing for him to do. Now all I need to do is win next months tournament and I can get either a box of Flamers of Tzeentch or a box of Seekers of Slannesh. Oh and another thing I am happy about is: last night I finished the first play through of Borderlands and started on the second play through with brick. *massively huge grin*
Waking up to a cloudless day, we needed the friggin sunshine, it's been damn too long.
My room is now super-duper clean! I feel accomplished! :)
We at "The House for the Terminally F****d are about to start a afternoon/evening Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogies binge out. <3

All this rain equates to me spending less time watering the garden.
It also makes it much easier for me to procrastinate mowing the lawn. :)

I'm happy I remembered to buy potato chips for my American friends I'm seeing tomorrow. They don't have the condiment flavored chips widely available in the states apparently, so I'm giving them some ketchup, dill pickle, and all dressed ones.
Much fun will be had :3
if they come, I wont know till I get there
: PurpleVeggie June 30, 2011, 11:24:18 -06:00Whats it's name?
Still thinking of one! :) Most of the time my pets will "tell me" their names. That is, a name will come to mind and won't get out. That ends up being their name.
It's JULY!
There are no smilies on this board appropriate for the crazy face i am making right now. srsly.
Moving in with Loial at the end of the month. New place is so much nicer. Squee!
Was in a Canada Day Parade in Richmond today~ had so much fun~ first time that my aunt's group performed for a parade for Canada Day and they won an award. So awesome! CX LOL so tired right now, gonna pass out, kthnxbi. x'D
I just ate the best meat loaf (with roasted garlic on the side) EVER. It was so good that I licked my plate clean. I have like 8 slices in the fridge left and some tortillas. I might combine them later.
Vanilla Coke.

Vanilla Coke.
I haven't had that in ages. Is it being sold in Canada again?
No :( Went across the border to get a parcel from Oroville, and stopped for lunch. America may be wierd and unsettling, but they have VANILLA COKE so all is forgiven.
Awwww! I don't usually like Coke, but I did like vanilla coke.
Surprisingly enough, if you look around you'll probably find some Vanilla Coke somewhere, I know nothing major will be selling them like Dollarstores or Superstore or Safeway will be selling them but small places like convenience stores or corner stores might. At least I've noticed, lol. :)
Anybody go to Safeway (or anywhere else their sold) buy those Lofthouse Delicious Frosted Cookies? I love them soo much, they were on sale recently at Safeway so I bought two cases~ mmmm, so yummy~ ;)
:O lofthouse cookies were one sale?! DAMNIT!! I love those things.
I'm happy that my paranoia is alive and well, and has no real basis on anything right now, lol

what an amazing stroke of luck! I had an appointment on the 6th and I found myself wishing that I could change it, but I didn't have the P# to call and ask... well, they just called me and told me they were changing my appointment to the 5th! :D
Woot, finally! The air conditioner was finally put up for the summer today~ wheeee!! bahahaha~
Not a cloud in the f***ing sky!

Not a cloud in the f***ing sky!
I know right...let's hope it stays around for a while longer.
I will have enough money this month to...
- pay rent next month
- get a bus pass next month
- pay this months bills (my portion of the gas is $10, the cable is -$8, and hydro was last month)
- get groceries when i need them
and the thing I am excited about...
- buying a Critter Nation (http://www.allpetfurniture.com/Midwest-Pets-161-MDW1241.html?redir=critter+nation+single+unit+with+stand&rtype=1) for my bunny, Lily Nomnoms. :)
woots~ I gots me my first group interview for the PNE~ :D:highfive::D :birdy:
you know those cuddles I needed? well, I didn't get them yesterday, but I got them today! and I was right, they did make me feel better.
Somebody was so impressed with my work performance today that they told my manager! :D
I got 'smile form' which tells corporate what I did to impress a customer beyond expectations, I also get a $10 smile card from Thrifty Foods to spend at my leisure. What a pleasant surprise that was! For me it's always been challenging enough to perform at their level of expectations just to keep my shifts.
A good friend of my sister's is coming to whistler, I can't wait to see her, I'm so excited ;D
My Mother now knows that I hang around with "mascots" (and was one briefly) and she doesn't seem to mind. ;D

I just saw Squire Barnes show the Hastings Racecourse Mascot Races. I heard a Fox faceplanted into the dirt and a Eagle literally flipped over.
Squire also presented the trophy for that.
I look good in hipster glasses... though I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not, perhaps I should post this in the complaint thread?

Too hip to use the right thread? 8) (just kidding!)
I'm finally making something and it's working!
naw I posted in both, posting in one thread is too mainstream.
I'm getting my hair coloured tomorrow, bright pink for the upcoming pride festival. :gay:
edit: I done got my hairrrr did! :gay: It looks pretty fab. ;)
I'm not as stupid as I was a week ago... ¯\(°_O)/¯... summer school is going incredibly better than expected :thumbs: . This: http://amzinthos.deviantart.com/#/d3nr2t0 (http://amzinthos.deviantart.com/#/d3nr2t0)
Earlier I was pissed about the cage I wanted to buy (see the complaint thread)... but I signed up to be emailed when more stock came in... and it already did. Not even 12 hours later, so I didn't hesitate, I ordered my cage. I am glad too, 'cause the Canadian site wants at least $40 or $50 more than what I ended up paying, which was $237.
I can wear normal pants again!
Congrats!
Saw bird poop fall right infront of where I was walking.
ah life is very interesting for me these days. And I will keep it at that. ^_^
Got a new pair of shoes...YAY!!
Just tried surfing for the first time. I wasn't very good at it, but it was fun! So I guess that's something to be happy about. :3
Triple-happy post!
1) My foot isn't too badly damaged; Chiefly soft tissue damage with a possible hairline fracture (Not the ankle, thankfully!). I'm not going to be getting up and dancing anytime soon, but, it's not as bad as it feels (And yes, it hurts like bloody hell when I put even a bit of weight on it). Lesson learned, secure my loft's ladder more thoroughly.
2) Tigercub, thank you very much for loaning me a cane. Going to need it until this heals, alas, but hey. It should heal in fairly good order once the swelling's down to a reasonable level again.
3) Started a top secret sneaky weasel project! I'll give you lot a hint: It's a game, it's got a few furry and borderline furry characters, and it's fairly old-school. Glee!

Good... good....... mwahahahahahahahahahahahaha :evil:
sorry i love hair styles, my hair is brown and green! the green is almost faded though, but that means i can do it pink like i had been planing since Christmas for the start of the new school year, COPY THAT! DYE YOUR HAIR PINK GUYS! I DARE YOU HIGHSCHOOL! sorry I'm pissed off that i did my hair teal and then 15% of the school were butts and did the same thing a week later, i'm not a hipster but i hate fitting with what everyone thinks is cool, plus nobody knew i had started the fad and though i was doing it to be cool.
Wait happy???
I cleaned my room :3 It looks SOOOOO nice, and now there are rules for company so it stays clean.
Well. . . you can try to copy me if you like, but I went to a very exclusive salon, and paid with my soul and $120.00 to get the particular dye that would stay this bright for six weeks. :roll:
Pics or it didn't happen!

That's a work in progress. My digital camera is fucked, and my cell phone has a cam that works but the images come out pixelated when I upload them on to the computer.
But I promise you there will be pictures!

I'm happy i watched a let's play of Ico for the PS2, that game is weird...

Bought a sewing kit for a buck and fixed my tail and a pair of pants, I was productive and such today, I feel kinda good about that. Still feeling a little anxious, but I'm feeling mostly better I guess.
I'm happy because i have an awesome bunch of people in my life :3
It's pink guys. It looks dark in that pic because the flash only hit my arm and lower face when I took the photo. Trust me, in the sunlight it shines bright pink. :roll: :gay:
I've got a big bag of crabs here,
I'm gonna put them in my mouth, oh yes,
I'm gonna run around the town on a market day
Everyone will look at me and say
I've got a mouthful of crabs

That's how I sound with a mouth full of crabs

Congratulations! I recommend a shopping trip posthaste to celebrate.
Woot, had the best day EVAR~! First met up with two old high school friends (who I started hanging out with again recently) and had sushi, then headed over to Metrotown and bought my ticket for Cos & Effect. Then proceeded to EB games and after we left bumped into someone who was ironically an "anthropomorphic admirer" who happens to be on FA (not totally furry, but we exchanged infos and stuffs) then after a few short hours of Settlers at their house, we headed back to Metro for dindin at this place called something like "The Hose and Hydrant" it's a sports bar between Bonzor and Metrotown (right across the exit next to the new Disney store) where we had yummy foods for really reasonable prices~ then went to the arcade, played some games till 10:30. At that point we proceeded to the movie theatre to claim our seats for Harry Potter pt.2~ before the movie started they had a draw for a movie poster, and I won it~ and I watched Harry Potter pt.2~ which I loved so much~!! :D now just to wait for tomorrow~ but that's a secret for now, heh. ;)
Latest update to be happy about...
Helped my friends get settled in their new home in Monmouth, Oregon. Still finalising a few things, but most everything is organised now.
Bought Mexican Coca-Cola. A good substitute, since I just ran out of Home Coke (Canadian Coca-Cola, IOW).
Realised I got a much better deal buying said bottles at a local WinCo about a few kilometres from where I'm stationed at.
Bought DJ Hero for $15 at Toys'R'Us, for the 360.
Pretty much it :3
It's now officially 4 moar weeks till my older sister comes home from North Carolina. :D
Yay my sig is moving now :o !
oh my I certainly love cooking! mmm a massive eye of round steak roasted in BBQ sauce, steamed carrots and broccoli, pasta, and a lovely parmesan basil béchamel, I can't wait to dig in!
my pants are falling down again even when my belt is on the smallest setting... time to cut another hole in it! ^_^ I should buy a scale so I can accurately keep track of how much I've lost.
No internet for the weekend, be good furries and guard the forums while I'm away!

Isnt this where we have the obligatory forum house party? And then we all play some form of drinking game to decide who has the task of telling Uni they broke his favourite forum?

I'm happy because I have pizza. Actually, i'm just generally happier these days.
Got an awesome birthday shout from the FPS cast yesterday~ ^_____^
Did anybody else see the Fox on the front page of today's Surrey Leader newspaper?
I hardly go biking much so...I'm happy because in two days' time, I'm gonna go biking with my friends in Stanley Park. :P
If that counts. xP

I am employed again. First day is on Thursday. Woot.
happy to hear that! :thumbs:
today has been going well! I'm back on the path of self improvement after a little detour <.<;
I LOVE CLIMBING THINGS WTH I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY.
the fur gathering "FurBQ" makes me think of barbecued furbies. As in those annoying little toys that look like Mogwais with their arms ripped off. And that makes me giggle.
life is awesome! and Fox Amoore makes amazing music!
thing always seem to work better when i'm off in my own little world.
I bought a scale today, AND GUESS WHAT GUYS I'M DOWN TO 185lbs WOOT ;D :D :-3 I've now lost 45lbs! FORTY FIVE IN 6 MONTHS I haven't even been trying that hard, I've only been exercising like 4 days a week and I've still been eating a fair deal of junky food. can you tell I'm happy about this? cause I'm happy about this.
Happy cause I got free computer "junk" to tinker with :D Thanks again man! :birdy:

Amazingly happy: Getting the full all-included Dremel 4000 kit for my birthday. As a tinkerer and prop-builder, this is just... really, honestly? The only thing better would have been a working UFO. And I can probably at least do some really nice prop detailing on a working UFO of my own with this.
Squee.

Started my week off from work in a good way, finishing third out of 60 players in a casino poker tournament and earning $180 for my $30 investment. Hopefully that bodes well for my other goals of getting a bunch of fiction writing done, and finding a beach to sprawl out on for a while, and otherwise not doing much of anything. *g*
I finally got around to renewing my learner's license. I passed the knowledge test, yays. This time I WILL take the road test before my L expires... >.< And pass!
had a fun day with my friends today, and on the way home some great conversation with some people on the bus. life is good.
I get free slurpies at work~ life is uber good!
I love taking late showers, so that I no longer feel like a dirty skunk when I go to bed XD
I had a cute guy over while my parents are gone for the week.
Now I feel this deliciously naughty sense of accomplishment. :gay:
managed to get Jesters new glasses for $15. thank you clearly contacts. I'm going to use the rest of the money I had set aside for them to buy me some pizza so I dont have to cook. :3 yay.
:D Clearly Contacts is pretty awesome. I got a second pair of glasses for FREE last year. I had to pay shipping though... They were having a giveaway promotion and when they announced my city, I just picked what I wanted and since I got in before the offer expired, it was totally free.
i almost wish i hadnt posted it on here, just so i could surprise him. oh well.
My family has been gone this past week to visit the ubc campus in Kelowna. Today they came back and my mom brought me a whole bag of apricots because she knows I love them so much. :)

Okay, so there's this little girl who was a former pageant princess/brat, who was on ET and was asked who her role model was (or who she adored) and she said Selena Gomez. Right after she said that, the interviewer mentioned Justin Bieber, Selena's boyfriend, and immediately Eden responded with "I hate him. I don't like his singing or his haire." I was like "LOL! I love that little girl. XD" I do X'D she sure is something to be proud of :D

Sausages and steiner mugs! 8D
Pestering close friends with random pokes until they chase me around the house, then pin me behind the couch and tickle/poke me until I almost piss myself is fun!
Oh oh oh and having waitresses at pubs pinch my butt cheek is also fun xD
Blazing along nice and fast on the Rainfurrest props. We'll have no less than 6, possibly 8 eight foot wooden signposts, with 10 to 15 hand-carved, stained and finished wooden signfaces on them. We'll have lean-tos in the Hangar for the hangout area. We'll have fake campfires. Stumps to sit on around them for artists. Maybe even some bean-bags to lounge on. I am having far, far too much fun doing theming builds for Rainfurrest, and I'm very glad I was permitted to do so. Happy ferrets are constructive ferrets.
...Squee!
Getting bumped from 1 year safe driving experience to 5, because someone at Autoplan was willing to make a 2 minute phonecall. 25$/month in savings, whoohoo!
Also having a three week old kitten sleep on me. :3
Finally having a day off after three weeks of work, and using it to hang out with friends at the beach! :birdy:
6 more days till I move to Canada. I am nervous. :V
...Uh..and...Happy. Yeah. xD
Camping
Woot, I start work at the PNE (well technically in Playland) either this saturday or sunday as a wheels dealer!!! (though I'm hoping to not work on saturday so I can go to a Harry Potter bake sale with my best friend from high school~ :3)
Though now that I mention it, I MUST SAY THIS WITH COMPLETE SERIOUSNESS: IF YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY ME THAT I WORK AT WHEELS, OR ARE PLANNING ON VISITING ME DURING WORK, YOU MUST ONLY DO A QUICK HI OR HELLO, AND EITHER WAIT FOR MY BREAK OR WAIT TILL I GET OFF, DEPENDING ON HOW LONG YOU ARE STAYING AT THE PARK OR HOW LONG MY SCHEDULE IS THAT DAY! UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS NOBODY THAT I HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF (basically if I know you in person;any friends or family) IS ANYBODY ALLOWED TO PLACE BETS OR PLAY AT MY TABLE, IT IS AGAINST PARK/EMPLOYEE RULES AND THERE WILL BE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES IF THEY FIND OUT. HOWEVER IF YOU'D LIKE, THERE ARE A TOTAL OF 4 WHEELS PITS AROUND THE PARK THAT YOU MAY PLAY AT. I WILL BE IN PIT 1/2.
Tanning on the deck, while drawing some art. 8)
Everything is going according to plan. Which is rare. But makes me happy, n.n

and I think that having two days off next week is a bit awesome X3
Finally managed to get my time for running 5k/3mi under 30 minutes. Can't feel my legs, but that's probably for the best.

Leaving for PAX tomorrow, and my Dr Zed/Ned cosplay is almost done! *squee*
Had a job interview yesterday. It felt like it went extremely well, and the job itself is one I actually want, with a co-worker who I'd call a decent friend. Sweet! Fingers crossed!
I does has car, :3
In english: I got a car! yaay!
The near end of a short summer. I used to like summer until getting some nasty sunburns and being dehydrated to the point of catching a fever without knowing it.
Oh, and I'm looking forward to a job interview at UBC Food services. ^-^
It looks like I have a job. I should be reviewing my contract sometime today. I'll be doing a mixture of environment art, texturing and gadget modeling. Should be fun.
awesome bus adventures with some guy calling himself the "salsabarbarian"
The pne yesterday was all I hoped it would be and more. The rides were so much fun, and the curry was delicious. ;)
Also I got to harass Hunny at her work. :P
I bought a bike today. I had a fitting session for it, so it will fit *perfect* unlike the countless other out-of-box, speced-for-men bikes I have test ridden. It will have drop handlebars for my dainty girly hands that fit like a glove - I didn't even know that was possible before today.
I am so happy ;_;
Thinking I have a job, has now turned into "I actually have a job". In fact, two jobs, one short-term, high pay art contract and one permanent fulltimer. Lunar, I could kiss you right about now!
LOL. I saw Shane Dawson at Playland yesterday. XD I was just standing infront of the arcade at Playland and noticed that I thought I recognized this one guy walking in the direction towards me, took me a second to figure it out, but I was like, " ....LOL, That's Shane Dawson.. WTF's he doing in Vancouver?! X'D " Best part about that, was I called my friend right after he passed me and told her that I saw him; at first she didn't believe me, but a minute later I got a text saying that he posted a pic of himself an hour ago at the PNE. So rubbing it in her face that she decided not to come to the PNE with me was fun. ;D
I'm sore after work. This isn't normally a good thing on its own. What's a good thing is that it means I worked an eight hour shift, survived, and I'm actually eager to go do it again tomorrow. :3
Rainfurrest is like in 22 days! Holy crap. So excited.
School is starting soon~
I love it when you feel relaxed after a 6 hour drive.
I got a job with UBC Food Services! Woohoo! :-3

Things to be happy about?...well my parents just informed me that we are now going to the Van. island, and we pretty much just got back from Kamloops.
Got my car, :D:D:D FINALLY!
Drove it home from the dealership myself even. n.n
stopped dieting, still losing weight, apparently the key is to just exercise regularly and you can more or less eat unhealthy food... either that or I lost a pound of water weight because I was exercising a bunch.

Everything in moderation, my friend. You can still eat junk food, so long as its not all you're eating.
tell that to the 70% junk food I've been eating for the last two weeks
all you need to know when it comes to losing weight is this: calories consumed - calories burned = net calories, sure there are other factors, but in the end that's all that really matters when it comes to losing weight, and carrying 185 lbs around the park a few times a day takes a lot of energy.
Sevi, I never hear from you anymore =( =( CALL ME. We desperately need to hang out and I'm making you an awesome badge. Actually I'm making the whole pack badges for RF.
I am happy about the fact that my mom is helping me out on the job search, by giving me enough money from my college fund to pay for the same bartending course Brittany Shadowwolf took. Not only that, but Ma is back tomorrow, and I get to spend the day with her and my dog and my stepdad, and then go out for dinner with my parents. <3
I love my mom to bits.
Oh, and my dose on my mood levellers was raised, so I no longer hate everything!
part of eating mostly junk food means lower energy levels, so that's why I haven't been doing much. you could always tell me when you wanna hang out though and I'll probably find the energy to haul my lazy arse out of bed.

Yey! Well, I'm busy with Mom tomorrow (just finished making her lunch and setting everything up as a surprise for when she gets home: Devilled eggs with chipotle, garlic and onion, chocolate chip cookies, and from-scratch potato chips with thyme), but Wednesday I don't believe I'm up to anything. You coming to fur bowling?
Another thing to be happy about: COOKIES OMG OMG OMG
they're so squishy and chewy and delicious, gawwww
I have a long standing tradition of not going to fur bowling, but sure I might come.
We finally got too Tofino, and found some WI-FI :-3 :-3 :-3
WOOT, I GOT A CALL TODAY LETTING ME KNOW THAT I GOT A 500$ SCHOLARSHIP FROM THE NEW IMAGE FINE ARTS SCHOOL!!! \o/ SO HAPPY!!! :D :D :D :D :D
I'm getting my passport on friday, now I will be able to travel to the States :D
Pear cider. Tasty!
I'm going to a gay bar with Karo! ;D
three-day weekend with a potluck at the end of it, and I get my guitar back from Long and McQuade tomorrow. It's gonna be AWESOME stuff :3
I'm not sick anymore, woo! Nine days of that stupid stomach-bug was *quite* enough. On top of that, one more day of work and I get a couple off, then I get a nice consistent solid schedule for a week on my favorite shift. And hey, because good stuff should come in threes? I'll be finishing the last of the work on some of my contracted artwork shortly, and I did well enough that they want to rehire me for more work, instead of outsourcing it to another house. Triplesquee! FC paid for in full, enough surplus to buy myself a replacement tablet for the one that crapped out, *and* pay for the ferretsuit I've been wanting for years. Make that a "Maximum Squee" please.
I think I need to go happy-wardance around the living-room now.
OMGWOOT. NEW SEASON OF THE BIG BANG STARTING SOON.

OMGOMGOMG!!! New season started (10 minutes ago) for the Big Bang Theory, and they're playing 2 episodes in total for the new season premier today!!! I'm so happy!!! <3 <3
That fresh, after-rain smell. Also, the fact that if the weather holds, I don't get wet on the way to work, but I still get those nice foggy skies.

You just made me make a ridiculous happy face, so I thought I'd tell you. I love the after-rain smell! It's here too, I just got home in time to let my cat inside before it started to drizzle!

Don't know what it is about the chance to simply watch and enjoy these natural occurrences lately, Rant, but I've had the time, the inclination and opportunity to do so lately, thanks to my new job. Loving it. Feel of the rains, the chance to watch the morning crow-flight against a beautiful sunrise, tens of thousands of black birds on brilliant reddened hues. Late at night, watching the bats flick and dart around the lamps, snatching up bugs. A spider meticulously handling a moth in its web, or the inching path of the feral cats after mice. I love Canada. :3

Damn it, Selkit, I couldn't have said it better myself! Life is good, and Canada is beautiful. I think my favorite part about going back to work on my terms is that I have time to just do art and not worry! My FA is going to be over loaded this week xD
Things to be happy about? MY THREAD IS STILL GOING! O0
Also, being accepted into the threatre program up at UVic, and being hired for the ticket office. I now officially earn my living from theatrical endeavours. :D
Just say this in a high pitched voice and it'll make your day...at least it did for me.

I've had a lot to be pleased about lately; That in itself is something to be happy about. But here's a more simplistic one from tonight;
Handmade yam-filled perogies with caramelized shallots, panfried. <3
Sometimes it is the little things in life that bring a person the greatest joys. A good meal, a well timed hug, hanging out with a friend whom you have not seen or talked with in a long while. Sometimes it is a combination of all the aforementioned things combined that brings a person such joy. I just finished having such a day. :)

Oh yum!! I love making homemade perogies!!
Things to be happy about:
Other than my parents being complete a**holes today, I had a super fun day with friends!! Got to hang out with Whitz earlier, 2 bottles of Vitamin water for 2$ (which is a SUPER AWESOME deal for those, since they're usually 2$ a bottle xD) then met up with Ry and had a drink and some SUPER yummy (fancy) noms: we had sour dough bread with whipped butter, and he bought a jar of 'honeydew Jam' - yes, you heard me right - honeydew~ which was SO delicious with the sour dough!! We then each had the 'Watermelon Salad' which had cubes of fresh watermelon, goat cheese, sundried crannberries, watercress, and this really nice balsamic vinaigrette and shared a plate of 'Bacon Scallops' which was chopped bacon, fried, scallops were fried seperately, served with caramelized onions, it also had a small corn salad, and it was ontop of a bed of mashed potatos. Then we got to have lots of fun laughing and talking on the bus ride home. Because I missed the last skytrain, I got to ride a bus from Nanaimo skytrain station TO kingsway that was 'not in service', because the bus driver was AWESOME enough to do that. All in all, I had a good day today~ :3
New update and another thing to be happy about: torrents are lovely things, especially when you can't wait for a new episode to air on TV the day it's supposed to air, and thankfully despite my shitty computer, they download really fast~ ;3
(<--- watched Doctor Who
twice today xD)
i get a couple days off in victoria while we unload the fishing boat and get some electrical stuff reparied (yay booze time) then i ts off again to see if we can fill the freezer again one more time befdore the albacore season ends at the end of october, that is if the weather doesnt get too too bad. now its off to power wash the blood off the bvack of the boat then find me a nice pub of some kind, hurrah!

I've been sick for the past five days, and spending way to much time in bed. But now I feel like in this past week I've gotten more sleep then I did the whole month before, and it makes my skin feel better to get some actual sleep :3 Or perhaps that's the caffeine soap.
There's another thing to be happy about! I got a baker's dozen of soap at Rainfurrest! which is where I got this cold :|

LOL, so I'm watching the latest episode of Jersey Shore (yes, sadly I have been hooked to a show that I LOATHE with my life! yet I have the urge to watch it when I can...) and I can't stop laughing my ass off (except for this: http://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?topic=1974.msg59622#new (http://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?topic=1974.msg59622#new)) I see Vinny come out of the shower, buttnaked, and he's chasing Deena, and then he starts grinding against her jokingly, literally when I first see him in general, naked, I'm just like, "...... O_O ...... LOLWTF!!! X'D"
I get to make reply #666 in this thread. :evil:
Stupid thing to be happy about maybe but hey, take joy in the little things, right?

I just got emailed that I won't be needed until 9am this morning at my lighting call, instead of 8am. Also, for a cumulative nine hours of light walking this weekend I'm being paid $120. I get paid to work in a theatre! *dances*
Nice, consistent work schedules. Yes, unfortunately it means I consistently know I am working weekends, but it also means I consistently know I'm Friday-Saturday-Sunday-Monday, leaving my other three days for socialization or art contract work. Shiny.

I feel your pain. I'd had my L since I turned 16 as well, and will be 22 next month. Truth be told, if I hadn't just bought a car and practiced on my own, I'd have never gotten it. They really should rethink the whole graduated licensing thing. Maybe put driver's ed back into high school curriculum.
Things to be happy about? Finding this website and all the awesome people! ^_^
It's Saturday morning....and watching cartoons XD
I'm prolly getting my hair streaked purple today~! :3

The cold rainy autumn finally being here. :D
Our chickens are finally producing a survivable-off-of amount of eggs~! :3
Despite being super full from dinner today, I feel so accomplished because I pretty much made dinner today, I cooked everything, including the turkey, which was my first time cooking~ and it was SUPER delicious!! All the meat practically just fell off the bones!! :D
I finally got my HDMI cable workind~ :3
1. Turkey and stuffing dinner.
2. After the shitestorm of midterms I have for this week, I can look forward to kick back a bit at Fursuit Bowling and Electrofuzz(!!!)
A new kirby game came out recently :3
Being up early, and swiping some of parents Irish cream for my coffee. XD
The sun is shinning and I have found happiness with a beautiful young woman. Life is good :3
so... much... turkey...
After a pretty swell day at school I decided to go get some dim sum treats from Chinatown on my way home for my sister and me. I was wearing a shirt I got at RF and a dude inside the bakery/restaurant commented on it, recognizing it's furryness. He was a furry from Germany! It was really cool to run in to another one.
Hmm, Now I can't seem to remember his NAME ??? darn it!

I bought shoes! :gay:
Shoes the Full Version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCF3ywukQYA#)
Man, I was so pissed yesterday at my roommates... but then today happened and I am so happy! ... Even though they left a paper plate and canned peach tin on the counter.
My grandma is over on the Island visiting from Guildford and wanted to take me to lunch as she does when she is over here. So first we got in the car and she hands me a $50 for no reason. I tried to refuse it, but she wouldn't take it back.
We drove down the street to visit my little sister at her new job, which is at a shop that sells incense, scented wax melty things, diffusers to put the melty things in, bath bombs and handmade soaps. Man, it is nice in there. I ended up getting a Chinese-y looking diffuser and some OMG SO GOOD SMELLING wax melty things (strawberry/melon and a vanilla bean) and some locally made soap with real blackberries in it. *__*
Went to White Spot and I knew she wouldn't let me pay for lunch, so I said I would leave the tip... but I wasn't allowed. XD White Spot burgers are awesome.
Then to the clothing store where I was bound and determined to buy the things I wanted there (yeah, bra sale! $30 instead of $60). Picked out stuff and a nice shirt. While I was doing that, she found two shirts that she wanted me to try on. I did and liked them. They were on sale so I was going to buy them too. And then she whipped out her bank card. This time I was serious. "No grandma. It is $100! I am paying!" and got politely shoved out of the way... so while she wasn't looking (but the cashier lady was, and smiling about it) I stuffed $30 into her purse. ... But when she put her wallet back, she caught me and gave it back. XD
She is so good to me. I love my grandma very much! She even brought me home made blackberry jelly (my favorite!!) and is trying to foist her unused kitchen gadgets on me. lol I will probably take some of them the next time I am over there.
And! It is a nice, sunny day today. Could it get any better?
I bought a pumpkin! :D I'm going to carve my bf's face in it to promote the festive spirit.
Also I managed to finish all my closing duties early tonight, so there was no stressful rush to get everything done nor guilt over leaving work for the person opening tomorrow morning. :)

Well it would be awesome to have entire case of brewskis, but in the situation I'm in....is we have no alcohol and the beer that was hiding in my closet, was one the beers one of my friends brought for the prom party...so if you ask me, that's kinda lucky. But I would love to drink a nice warm pint X3
A lady tried to give me a $5 tip today, then she told how impressed she was with my service and cheerful personality every time she shopped at our store. She said she always comes through my till because I'm one of few people who's smile and greeting are genuine. :angel:
I had to refuse the tip, but it made my night just hearing someone say that. Most people simply mimic a, 'thanks, have a nice day' and rush off.
We survived The Rapture...again!
I am cooking duck for the first time (along with risotto and mushrooms, but I have made them before) and everything seems to be working out fine. I just hope it tastes good!
I love duck.
Gordon Ramsay - How To Cook Duck (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOo2QMV6fHA#ws)
Mine turned out pretty good... but I sorta wished I had watched this first. I ♥ Gordan Ramsay and he had some tips that will help me next time. I also learned that unlike chicken, duck is RED MEAT so it is perfectly ok to cook it medium rare, which I think I would prefer. :D
YAY! GORDON RAMSAY
I am enjoying the best Friday of the week. Beer pong, Kings, Cup Flip, and Super Smash Bros night at a friend's reunion place of sorts. :D
And I'm a drunk dog now.
My legs haven't fallen off yet, despite trooping around for a solid three hours at work. I may finally be back in shape again. Though my knees are attempting to convince me that they are on fire right now.
Two-fer!
Breakfast? Hashbrown cut spuds, some minced shallot, a seasoning dash of garlic, marjoram, onion stock, black pepper and Himalayan salt, some sauteed mushroom segments, and a light grated coating of havarti over the works. Good homemade kingly food. Purr.
Recent tinkering and such with my RV revealed that not only does it have a performance carburetor but also a performance intake manifold. Looks like I got the freaking rat rod of RVs
That explains why it pigs the gas, but also how a 10,000lb behemoth like that was actually keeping pace with and even beating some people off of stop lights. :birdy:
This sammich is sooooo tasty!
Fresh, homemade mushroom soup. Warm :3
I survived work today. I'm so glad that I'm off work. *paw pump into the air*
Someone found my expensive graphing calculator <3
Bought a Tassimo. Christened it by running an espresso cartridge into a cup laden with Trader Vic's macadamia nut liqueur, Irish cream, and Godiva chocolate liqueur. It's very good. And I'm slightly flush right now. But gooood.
Yay for a "new" computer that can run all the games I own that I couldn't before! :D

We have one of those, bought it for 10 dollars at a garage sale from a friend who was moving. SOOO AMAZING!! D: AMAZING! SO! *twitches and drinks more coffee*
Got the drink I like from Starbucks. It is that passionfruit/lemonade/tea one. This is only the third time I have had anything from Starbucks... so it is a good thing the barrista knew what I meant when I said "that one... it is pink and like a juice or something?" and then I didn't know what they called their sizes. I wanted a medium and they call it a grande or something? That is confusing, 'cause when someone says 'grande,' I think of something huge.
Ooh and I am having a hard time choosing between two things for supper tonight...
- Baked salmon with crispy fries, or
- Pan seared duck breast, garlic/parm risotto and (duck fat) sauteed mushrooms
: zenia October 27, 2011, 01:00:17 -06:00
- Pan seared duck breast, garlic/parm risotto and (duck fat) sauteed mushrooms
I'm in favour of anything cooked in duck fat. As long as you use anything but white mushrooms this sounds tasty.
Happy thing - I'm not as completely broke as I thought! Minor short-term financial security \o/
heh White mushrooms were on sale, so that is what I got. What mushrooms would you recommend? I like chantarelles... but I haven't had them in ages. When I was younger, my parents and I would go off into the forest and collect them ourselves. :P
Mmm....white mushrooms. ^_^
I got a bunch of resumés sent out~ ^_^
Baked salmon and chips. Yummmmmmmy! <3
@Zenia - I've had too much salmon in my lifetime~ X3
And I's finally in the school's Student Council~<3
Currently, I'm kicking back and relaxing for the night.
In terms of things to feel be happy awesome about is that I'm currently relishing myself over a homely classic of sorts: milk and chocolate chip cookies.
*growls with happiness*
Skyrim is almost out~<3
Wearing my fursuit to a Halloween party for the furst time X3
My grandma was supposed to leave a nightgown that she bought from my mothers store (my mom makes all the clothes) on Thursday. I was at the dentist, so I said that it was ok to leave it on the covered porch. Well, I got home and my mind was on other things, so I didn't remember to look for it. I was in the washroom this morning when I remembered, so I went out there and she had tied it into a plastic bag and tucked it behind some stuff, so it wasn't obvious it was there.
It is so pretty! Normally I like wearing only black jammies... but this one is so pretty that I really like it. It is purple, with a nice swirly pattern printed on it in fabric ink in white and a purple that is just a little darker than the fabric, and there is a pretty butterfly on the front. :) I love butterflies.
Welp. Looks like me and my refugee peers are being taken in by a giant mainstream school near by. So at least we get heat and decent computer access. Art classes might continue too if we're lucky..... on the other hand this means we'll be forced into interaction with the general teenage population again, at least at lunch. bleh. maybe I should be posting in the complain complain thread. whatever. too late now
HOWLOWEEN IS IN LESS THAN A WEEK.
CAN'T WAIT. FFFFFF.

Well, it's gonna be a cold winter in BC either way, according to the weather network, so yay!
They also said we would have the hottest summer ever ... and look at what happened. XD
My dentist visit took ages. lol I started it at 11:20 and got out of there at 1:10. At least it was $20 cheaper than estimated?! He had to give me the maximum amount ov Novocaine allowed in order to get the area completely numb. XDDD but at least it is taken care of now! He included the thing I actually wanted to have done in the first place. He used that cavity to get to the one that was more of a problem, so he sealed the whole thing up at once and didn't charge extra. :)
: Dallas November 03, 2011, 10:48:35 -06:00

I second this happy, :3
Also, not sure if its something to be happy about exactly, but I finally just told the annoying upstairs neighbour, that I never ask her to babysit, because I dont like the way she handles my kids. :x a little afraid of her reaction, since she lives above me she can make life suck. But at least that awkward is more or less out of the way, right?
Best friend just loaded me up with a shit ton of free computer "junk" including a older HP PDA, like 5 wireless routers @.=.@ keyboards and wireless mice, video cards, way too many fans ad even a nice 5.1 speaker set :D
Howloween in 3/2 days. Need I say more?
Cake Pops from Starbucks (to be more specific, the birthday cake, the peppermint candy, and the tiramisu ones)(if you know any other cake pop flavours other than Rocky Road and the above mentioned flavours, and/or you know where they are sold anywhere else, not just from Starbucks, let me know!!) and Daiso for their amazingly wide selection of stuff!! I know where I'm going when I move out and start my little cafe. :D
This morning I woke up early enough that I was able to have a go at the coffee pot before my family could drain it. Which is an amazing feat considering I didn't fall asleep last night until after 1am and woke up at 6:35am. I drank 1.5 cups, had breakfast, went for nice walk in the park where I contemplated life and found inner peace.
I'm experiencing a caffeine high for the first time in quite a few months now. :o
I can't remember the last morning I've felt this motivated.
However if today is starting out this good, I wonder what I have to look forward to. I have bowling and a late night of socializing ahead of me, and I'm worried I will burn through all this energy from the caffeine by noon and pass out somewhere before I make it to the bus to get out to Burnaby to actually accomplish anything.
Still though, I feel amazing right now!
It's almost too bad it's not a workday. I feel sooooo motivated this morning. My managers would be impressed with my energy at work. ^-^
I treated my sister to supper at White Spot. It was great. :) I didn't eat at all today so that I would be able to finish my whole plate. :P
My 8yo daughter is kicking ass at Smash Bros Melee. She's finished east with 3 different characters, and unlocked 2 more! *wipes away tear* I'm so proud.
I Saw the new Harold and Kumar last night, got a few good laughs from it XD

Excuse me. If anyone needs me, I will be doing an awkward hip-swaying happy dance in the corner.
Listening to live jazz music in the Gage commons lounge, while lounging to the side with a laptop during a cold winter's day...You can almost call it a little bubble of paradise.

It was snowing? When?!! :o
*snow-ecstatic*
It is supposed to snow (5cm to 10cm) over here tonight, but I am not sure if that will happen.
i love the snow, :D srsly awesome.
I woke up to the beautiful sight of snow outside my window! :D
butter ripple schnapps on icecream. yum.
I've got an interview at Toys R Us tomorrow!! Wheee! :birdy:
I just got a job offer today from a car dealership for a full time detailers position :D a huge improvement from my minimum hours part-time wal-mart job.
So excited! :birdy:
Writing up a storm. I handwritten eleven and a half pages today, starting at around ten thirty this morning and finishing the story by four-thirty. Needless to say my wrist is a little sore, but it's well worth it.
Went to the dentist to take care of that damaged wisdom tooth. It probably should have been $199, but they only asked for $100 and I can pay it when I have the money. The dentist showed me the tooth afterward. It had a really long root and it even took some of the bone of my jaw and some gum tissue away.
I have a prescription for T3s and I will be happy that the pain that has plagued me for the past couple of weeks will be over with.
Now I am just waiting for my tongue to stop being frozen. lol
edit at 5:20pm: Awwwwww! <3 My dentist just phoned me to ask if I was doing alright. That was so sweet. He's never called me personally before. :)
A few things to be happy about:
First things first: I SURVIVED BLACK FRIDAY!!! LOL! Though we only stayed in a Walmart most of the day/night.
BUT other than that:
Successful things we got: My laptop (HP Pavilion G7) which was only black friday exclusive. I sat/stood in a line for over 7 hours waiting and have achieved an amazing thing~
My mom got us a new camera, the Sony Cybershot
I got 20 tubes of the 15 glowsticks, A DOLLAR EACH. I grabbed like... 20!!! It only cost me $21!!!
I've been looking all over for Snoballs, but finally found a box of it so I bought it and now I am happy~ :3
Also, shopping at Fred Meyer worth over $150 got us a free turkey o3o
We also got a 24lb bag of cat food for $15 lol
I actually own a digital camera now! It's about time!! ^.^
Went through my first day at my new auto detailing job, you know its gonna be a good job when even when everyone was saying that it was a hectic day, things still went well.
And hey, I love driving s getting the chance to drive a Dodge Challanger, Dodge Ram and a Hyundia Accent were all amusing... though especially the challanger cause nothing makes me have as big of a shit eating grin when old people think I am a rich youth and own a better car than they do lol XD
One more week before the end of the courses for my first term in my third year!!
Well, I've got one essay that's due a week and a bit more from this upcoming Friday, so...eheheh...
I have finally finished the monthly payments for my laptop through Dell! Wahoo!!!
Went to Numbers for the first time last night. Then after that, had an amazing milk shake and a super yummy bison burger with coney fries only 2 blocks away! All in all I had an EXTREMELY AWESOME time with some AWESOME furries!!! Thank you to Icey, Ryluen, Bariby, Dallas and Teko for making last night SO MUCH FUN!!!
Also, before I go: SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW, SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW!! DON'T TELL SCOTTY, CUZ SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW-
Oh....................................... *ahem*.............. M-M-Mi scusi, mi scusi~! =3
AWLRITE ERR'BUDDY, AUF WIEDERSEHEN!! *flops onto the couch and passes out* :-3
did you get the awesome milk shake at Marie's burgers on Davie? or whatever its called. Its like this old 50s based restaurant, soo good. lol
Yups! That was the place! ^3^
i looooove their milkshakes, :3 haven't been there in a couple of years. Hmmm...
NO LONGER WORKING AT WAL-MART! <-- the holy grail of things good to happen.
My last day was hilarious though... I had realized that I misplaced my phone when I was on my lunch, only realized this like 2hrs later so I panicked and told my one co-worker in my dept I needed to go find it. He was cool with it since it was a slow night.. it took me roughly 1/2hr to trace all my steps and I found it at subway of all places where I had my dinner at. When I get back there is a head manager talking about time theft saying I was gone an hour, how he visited the dept twice (lol They never come to that part of the store) and the general scenarios about "what if there was a fire" then going on to say that he is marking me up with my first warning and was gonna pull up my file to see if I did any other "shady" stuff. Even when I told him that I was gone cause I realized my cellphone was missing and panicked cause its not cheap to replace.
I went to the back room of my dept and told my co-worker, we both laughed good cause it was my last day there and I didn't really care what intimidation BS the small dicked managers wanted to try and use. also joked about what it would take to be fired in my last day of work XD
My manager in my dept and most of my co-workers were nice, but outside that dept, head managers were just dicks who needed sugar in their tanks :)
I finally get to sleep in for the day. That's as much as happiness as I can get. ;D
brownies, with cream cheese frosting. Delicious.

Mmmmmmmmmmm
Ibuprofen. It turns an otherwise skull-shattering headache into a mild nuisance.
My coworker brought home made fudge to work today. omg It was soooo awesome! Then, when my boss was gonna leave, she was all "You guys deserve a treat!" and went to Tim Hortons to get everyone a hot drink. I had a white hot-chocolate. mmmmmmmmm <3
It was also the anniversary finishing my 6th year at the shop!
Got mahself a nice brand new laptop.. 2.4ghz quad core 8gb ram, 1.5 dedicated VRAM and750 gig harddrive.... today was a GREAT day =D <33
I think I've got what I need in terms of emergency rations to survive studying for the finals!
Currently @my UBC dorm:

I should bring you some better rations, Tef. ;) Come over sometime to me and Loial's, and we'll feed you kingly fare. Last night's dinner was neep and carrot rötmas spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, butter and golden cane sugar, with a main dish of pork-and-bacon borscht, with a lemon cream cake for dessert. Another thing to be happy about, actually; Me and the otter eat pretty good for poor people.

It's actually rather easy, if you maintain your finances and purchase through sales, things can happen in the impossible. :3 Also, mmm~ lemon cream cake sounds yuuuuuuummy~ ^0^
Thing to be happy about: I'll get to hang out with friends again soon~ I love hanging out with friends!! Especially on days when my mom has HER own friends over at the house. Though most of the time it's only just to gamble, so it's always good to be out of the house. o:
I finally sewed the reflective tape onto my dark hoodie. I ordered it last year, but never got around to it until now. Now I don't have to worry about cars not seeing me!
This is what it looks like. (http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/5851/hoodiey.jpg) The grey parts are the tape. The white scribbles are (in reality) a stitched dragon design. ;)
Classes are done for the semester! Yaaaaay!
... and now for exams. Sigh.
Oh well, at least all the assignments and classes are finished with for the semester. That is definitely something to be happy about!
I think my brother actually managed to fix my computer, so it will no longer attempt to melt itself into an unintelligible lump of plastic! AND the fan no longer sounds like a helicopter taking off!!
being alive (because I'm creative like that)
Portal 2: video game of the year. Awesome.
I'm watching Spike TV's 2011 Video Game Awards and the intro was just simply amazing. I can't wait to see Felicia Day, and Deadmau5 will be performing on the show as well. Nuff said. \m/
having a good relationship with your local pizza place. Due to a debit card malfunction, i was unable to pay for my pizza right away. He left it anyway, and told me to come to the restaurant and pay for it when i get the debit thing figured out. :3
Finished my first full week of work at my auto detailing job, its pretty sweet, very layed back, full time hours, decent enough pay. Just happy to have a real job once more! ^.=.^

Flirted my way to $20 worth of free tea at Teaopia.
Awwwyeah.
I LOVE Teaopia!!!!!
Having some Chocovine before going to bed. Right now I'm having Espresso Chocovine, and it is damn delicious. I hope they keep selling this stuff beyond the Holidays/
Two exams down, two to go. It's better to think of this of the glass as being half full instead of half empty. ^^
Manager and staff at my detailing job included me in their lill Christmas employee gifts thing, was really surprised since I haven't been there long :O
They even told me there are very impressed by my work ethic :)
I'm leaving for Hong Kong for the Christmas Break this coming Tuesday and I won't be back until the 2nd of January! :D
Have a good trip, Tef!
I did my first-ever five mile run on the treadmill today. Been working my way up in distance lately, and am quite proud of being able to do that considering a mile was an achievement when I started running regularly a couple of years ago... Time's not spectacular, 56:45, but frankly not dropping dead on the treadmill was my main hope there. *g*
Congrats on the five miles Tony! Much better than i could do, that's for damn sure.
My happy, finally got the christmas tree up and decorated. Feels a little more Christmassy in here, even if I didnt get to listen to my tree decorating music.
My faith in humanity is very, very high right now despite current events. When a woman walks into the lodging I work in (Protip: Do not directly name your job online), with a homeless girl in tow, then just... outright pre-pays for a good stretch in a room for that girl, it's very uplifting. Gave her a break on the rate, Googled up as much social assistance information as I could, and shared some of my takeout with her. And it makes me realize that despite all the bad? People still do good simply because they can. Top that off with a nice fat tip, an awesome filk musician playing wicked guitar with nice crunchy-crisp vocals to go with on the bus on the way home...
For once I can say I had a *really* good work night.
I like my new job. And I have a feeling my new job actually likes me too.
That Carthage has a job and is happy at it! :D
The most recent game project I've worked on has launched. Go see it at blastaliens.com; I produced the gun artwork, hats, and other small bits for it. :3
Showers. Showers and clean clothes.

Nice chunk of time indeed, I would still prefer it in separated doses or like previous jobs, when I want it, all at once would bug me :P
Yeah, by the end of it, I am dying to go back to work. XD
Nomming on some sugar cookies.
Hungover on turkey myself. The whole house is hotter than hell right now with the stove being on all day for the turkey and baking. :P
Than I got almost $100 worth in gift cards from the relatives. :monocle:
My brother got Skyrim for Christmas, and I've been watching him play that, it's a pretty hip game. :D
I have my grandmamma over right now. She was interviewed recently by the local historical society for a cookbook they're putting together. I may be using her old family cake recipe for Gizmo's New Years function. ;)
edit: You know I've had such a great day, I just love all of you. I has such a huge happy right now! Christmas is better than a cheeseburger! Hell two cheeseburgers even! ;D :hug:
I'm going into work on my week off ...
... to play board games ;D
A bizarre thing happened to me tonight.
I raped the profile of one of our new members, and now I think she's pursuing me! :o
Some of the crazy cool shit you find in traded in cars lol
When we get traded in vehicle usually people leave change accidentally or there is stuff stuck under the seats, so usually the motto is "finders keepers" the other day I found a 16gb USB key, a bunch of change and a freaking full sized crowbar (I am Gordon Freeman *me gusta face*) always is like a treasure hunt lol XD
2011 finally pissed off and died. Woo!
...2012, I'm eyeing you carefully. Don't suck half as bad. Or I'll invent a way to beat you silly.

my keyboard has magically started working again after jesters spilt half a glass of water on it. yay!
Water is nothing! Once I spilled half a glass of grape juice into my favorite wireless keyboard. I took it apart and cleaned every part of it with a soft cloth and then let it dry and it worked again. :)
I've had bad luck with keyboards. I went through 4 in 2 months due to spills and whatnot. And my house is far too disastrous to try taking them apart and drying them out manually. Not just water either. Milk, juice, cola. usually between full and half full... and not 8 oz glasses, but the 16 oz ones. I've had terrible luck with keyboards.
On that note, this one isnt actually sure if it wants to work or not. It goes all wonky for a few minutes, but then gets better with use. hoping it stops with the wonky.
Since it was just water, it should be ok. When it is sticky then it is a big problem.
hmmm kinda silly and sentimental but...
I was just thinking...
I really love it when you read something that really stirs something deep inside you. The written word is amazing. I think its definitely one thing to be really thankful for as a human being, complex emotional responses to the world around us and the ability to articulately communicate them to others. It's brilliant that I can read something written even hundreds of years back and find the core of it still relevant, connecting to someone who has long since seen his last days on this planet. its kinda crazy O.o

What cleaner did you use to clean it and how long did it take?
: Tef January 05, 2012, 07:02:19 -07:00
What cleaner did you use to clean it and how long did it take?
I just used warm water (and a teeny bit of dish soap) and a soft cloth and some paper towels. It took about 24 hours to let it dry completely.
yeah, try leaving small piece out to dry in a house occupied by small children. See if you can find the pieces after 24 hours. :p I'm still missing parts of my vacuum cleaner, lol
My family's going on a Mexican cruise this spring break. :)
(Downside is I'm going to miss Vfur)
Only 60 days left until VancouFur!
I can now have that glass of tequila Viv suggested earlier. Though I'll skip the tequila and opt instead for a finger of gin in a cold glass of Peardrax, gently adulterated with a bit of raspberry bar mix. <3
I'M HAVING SOME FREINDS COMING UP TOO WHISTLER TODAY.....I'm so excited XD
Got my RV back from the shop, not only does it fire up as if it was a brand new vehicle but I also got a discount on the labor since I work with a dealership myself and am classified as a preferred customer. My boss even let me borrow their universal demo plates so I could move it back and fourth without having to get pricey day permits! ^.=.^
I'm finally going to my first fur-meet in like 4 years ^^ (VancouFur)
I FINALLY figured out what was wrong with my car and wont get stranded at Safeway anymore :birdy:

My Little Pony. That is all. ;D
I was late to make my request on the radio (106.9 The WOLF) but the Dj played it anyway! I asked for anything off of Metallicas black album. He played me "Wherever I May Roam" (I love that song) and named me with my online/furry name on the Radio! He pronounced it wrong, but I was still fangirly! :)

Been to this really awesome karaoke place (albeit a bit stuffy in terms of temperature) in Richmond called Cashbox with a bunch of friends. They have a huge selection of songs, exponentially more than I expect. *happywoofy*

Further extension of my current art contract. Got to say, I quite enjoy working with these gents, and I'm very eager to see what the new art reboot plans bring to the table.
After being in the fandom for so long I am finally getting a fursuit commissioned :D
Otterly room-mates. The food he cooks, the things he brings home, the company... it's rather nice to have good company and cohabitants.
Got to go to Geeks After Dark yesterday for the first time ever! Had a SUPER fun time!!I went at the TARDIS with a removable St. John's Ambulance sticker, so I could switch between 10th and 11th TARDIS if I wanted too~ and best yet was that Ryluen and NikkiD came with me too and they both had sweet costumes as well: Ryluen being a REALLY good 11th doctor with a Stetson and NikkiD being one of the amazing catpeople! Was also awesome to see Professor there as well as Tekani as the 4th Doctor and Romana~ :3 and then just super awesome to see a lot of my old friends there too!! Woo, what an amazing time it was~! ~^0^~
why have I never heard of Geeks After Dark?
Checked out a play adaption of Dostoevsky's The Idiot at the Frederick Wood Theatre. I guess it's because I haven't watched plays in a long time, and although it was a bit long at 3 hours, and your typical romance story, it was pretty well done.
More tweaks and wiring work done to my RV, I always feel smart after I get a job done XD
my life is so boringly fun... was a great time at geeks after dark on fri., and roller skating on saturday, socializing is a happy thing for sure :-3
quote= "Was also awesome to see Whovian there as well as WolfGirl as the 4th Doctor and Romana"
:) please, it`s either just plain 'who' or 'whovianart' or 'professor' is fine for that matter, and as i found out over the years 'whovian' is a dr. who fan ref, and wolfgirl is now found as tekani :)
and yes, it was awesome to have and see other furries there, and i hope to make it to the next one and other furries attend as well, strangely enough, i won a prize in the costume contest, go figure.
good times.

hmm makes me wonder what I will get as I got FOUR damn T4s coming in X.=.x gotta love my employment situation a year ago. Though since my work was so sporadic my income bracket is going to be pretty much rated "homeless man low" so the tax return from what I did make should be okay.

She asked me if I wanted to take the day off tomorrow, apparently they overbooked a shift they were trying to cover. I had the option of taking it, splitting it and working for less time that day or taking the whole day off.
I chose to take the day off! :P
I finally relearned myself how to ice-skate in half an hour today! I haven't touched the ice ever since I was in grade school. xP
Even if it's only temporary, I'm happy to be back at work for at least five weeks.
Great friends and eggs. I love eggs. O0
My usual late night delivery restaurant-choice. They know me on a first-name basis, often sending me extra goodies to go with my meals like the awesome homemade peanut butter cookies that went into the last take-out bag. Awesome way to brighten my nights on a graveyard shift.
I saw this on Anderson the other day, but Adam Levine (the Maroon 5 Lead Singer) preferred a fox plushie out of all the other plushies Anderson gave him on the show.
Tim Hortons' Roll Up the Rim is back! :D
Nomming on Reese's Peanut Butter Pieces(I won't get in trouble for considering that my crack?) and drinking a can of Mountain Dew. Diabetes here I come.

Tim Hortons' Roll Up the Rim is back! :D
I got a free donut today. :D
Lucky! I want a free doughnut. I almost went to Tims today... but I ended up just wanting to go home instead.
Has anyone tried the sundried tomato asiago cheese bagels from there? SO DELICIOUS!!!!!
All my stuff from Calgary finally arrives this morning! I can't wait to have something to sit on other than an air mattress. And to have my books
I just started my new job and got a hefty raise in the process...! Booyah!
My older sister is gettting married tomorrow....man ain't this a big leap in my families :D
Getting a free 12" sub-woofer with a 400W AMP
Just counting down the days towards VFur makes me happy. :-3
Here is a sweet but ever so slightly bitter sweet one from me.
GOT MY FIRST RAISE EVER TODAY! ^.=.^ now im making well over what I did at my IT job!
The bitter sweet part is, while its awesome I finally got a raise, it was only after my 90 day probation period, which is great but I worked MANY MANY MANY other jobs WAY longer than that (like my IT job I did for nearly 2 years) without so much as even a mention of any raise. Put it all together and I have been working over 5 years and this is the first time in all those years I ever got any real appreciation and a raise. So I am very happy with this job, but looking back and shaking my head at the people I worked hard for in the past who dicked me.
Finding out last night that Netflix has Jim Gaffigan's Beyond the Pale. ;D ;D
Won my first EVER prize at Timmy's with their Roll Up thing. Got a free donut. This breaks my losing streak of almost ten years. I'm not a super frequent visitor though.
I am watching a Deadmau5 Concert 2K11: Meowington's Hax in Toronto on Shaw Video on Demand. Awesome, lol. :3
awesome hunny, ah yes deadmau5, 'jean michel jarre' with a modern dance beat, look him up, you`ll hear what i mean.
:-3 only two days away from the start of :-3"VANCOUFUR" :-3, hard not to be happy about that :-3
This: http://www.komonews.com/weather/blogs/scott/A-dream-come-true-UK-photographer-gets-aurora-and-volcano-in-same-shot--141437223.html (http://www.komonews.com/weather/blogs/scott/A-dream-come-true-UK-photographer-gets-aurora-and-volcano-in-same-shot--141437223.html)
If I'm going to summarize it into one word, this is my mental reaction to VFur that's coming up in one day, aka tomorrow.
아ㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏ!!!
That, and I overfueled myself on a medium double-double Tim Horton's.
After being gone for almost 3 years, and me thinking something bad might have happened to him, my dad's finally found me! I'm super happy to see and hear from him again!! :D :-3 :hug:
Being able to sleep in my own bed, once I uncover it.
Having a steady job with co-workers who are more family than people you just happen to work with.
Came home from a con with no signs of sickness!
I got Prof Whovianart in a Kinder Suprise today! :O

Got a shiny Rayquaza at last ;D
Went to look at apartments with Broken Fox today. The first one was in a great location... but it was TINY and there was no storage. The other place is at my sisters complex. There were two apartments and both were nice. It has SO MUCH ROOM and a large storage closet and coin laundry (the other place didn't have any at all) and best of all, it is $100 cheaper! We filled out the application and I am gonna drop it off in a bit.
Now to tell my roommates that I am moving... and they have to as well.

I just spent 5 hours playing Donkey Kong on my new N64 and eating junk food.
Bliss. <3
Found a awesome Snes game at a pawn shop for $10
Legend of Zelda: Link to the past, well worth it :D
Gotta love watching Charlie Eppes on the TV show Numb3rs (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0433309/) crack cases with math. =^.^=
Singing jazz with friends.
Finally grasping raw quaternion omega-handling math without having to transcribe to Euler axes first! No more gimbal lock, no more polar precession and axis lock... I can code truly smart missiles and bots for my games now!
but but selkit... lobbing things randomly is so much more fun :)
warehouse 13 is lots of fun to watch.
I just "silently" called skytrain security over this troublemaker who was on drugs and A) they were at the next station, as advertise, and B) even though the troublemaker got off the train they instantly took notice of him. :police:

Tomorrow's the last day of my classes!
Hung out with TJ for 12 hours today. XD It was awesome. Also, hung out with Drewdle and his wife for a bit at Starbucks. :) I had fun today!
Getting back to work is finally giving me back the confidence to cook and work on my recipes again.
Now all I need is the time. :P
These guys are AWESOME!! XD They're super enthusiastic about Easter! They linked arms & danced in a circle yelling happy easter! XD
(https://p.twimg.com/ApwKtXiCAAE6-ga.jpg)
Got to invite several people and cooked for the whole lot until they were uncomfortably full. =)
AMS "End-of-Classes" Block Party is the now. Unfortunately, I find the sensation of bass penetrating through the body to be quite uncomfortable, so I'll have to give it a miss. Besides I'm not really that big on drinking myself. :-\
Woke up early this morning, made a huge plate of bacon and eggs. (nothing like a good worship to the god of cholesterol lol) Got my nice summer wheels swapped onto my car and then spent the rest of the afternoon with the mate, working on my RV and his car at a relatives place. The whole time in the awesome weather we got today. ^.=.^ In short a nice sunny afternoon doing project work.
Some days its just the simple things that do it.
Easter chocolates outside in the warm sunshine with you wonderful people.
I've also discovered the thai place in the metrotown food court serves the most delicious noodle soup in these gigantic bowls! :-3
Had an insanely good cod fish 'n chips at Sockeye City Grill in Steveston today. Totally awesome, I highly recommend it!
Broken Fox and I are in our new apartment! It is awesome. :) Now to unpack!

Seeing something this amazing.
Diablo 3 open beta weekend. it is glorious.
Things to be happy about: omfg Diablo 3 beta is sweeeeet! Can't wait for the release ^.=.^
Things to complain about: Could not see my screen while playing Diablo 3 beta.... my massive gamers hard-on was blocking my veiw!
OH MY GOD... looks AMAZING!!!!
Spontaneously delivering a sardonic, epic two-minute rant-down against the entitled bell-end harassing the transit driver. Okay, the bus is a minute from showing up. He's bitching about how he pays taxes and pays a government worker's wages (Bollocks; He was griping ten minutes before that on his cell at a social service worker, in front of everyone in line), how his civil rights are being violated, et-cetera and ad nauseum, cue entitlement grousing. The bus is now a minute late. Whatever, I planned ahead for up to fifteen minutes delay, late happens. He's still using the transit line as a captive audience. Three minutes, he's still at it. Four minutes, the bus arrives, loads in an orderly fashion, and he halts the line to berate the driver. This'll earn a "Stow it!" from me, and a terse request to move aboard or get out of the way. He boards. Then he makes the mistake of carrying on once actually aboard the bus. Cue browbeating that lasts from 29th to Kingsway, which has the driver grinning like a madman up front, and everyone on the bus snickering or smirking at the entitled fellow now making fish-jaw motions while trying to retreat into his windbreaker. "...And would you kindly stop hoarding our bloody oxygen with pointless, passive-aggressive bloviation?"
Felt like a dick, but it was worth it. Transit drivers don't deserve that nonsense.

We need more people like you. :) Especially against the folks that wouldn't move aside when there's a km-stretch of free standing space behind them from the first exit door.

Tomorrow morning's my final final exam. After that...school's out! :D
I thought that my cat could use the company of another cat when I am gone... so I got a kitten today. I haven't named her yet. She is so cute and waddled around my room for a bit. Now she is sleeping in front of my TV. Kevin needs to get used to her now. They hissed at each other for a bit, but they will accept each other soon enough.

I like it when people can be dicks while doing good. Its the most entertaining thing ever. Half the time the only thing general assholes understand is when they get a taste of it back that takes them down a few pegs.
Hosted a small gathering last night. Very good company, excellent food, the chance to share my mixology, and a fine night spent in the warm glow of it all. Sure, I've underslept slightly, I'm gently hung over, and will probably be eating the leftovers for a week to come. Damned if I care about the trivialities! It was a fine night, and I need more of them like that!
On a related note, try this one some day, boys and girls; I haven't named this drink yet, created it while experimenting on a whim last night. For those of you over 19, it's quite the tasty, gently spicy mix:
4 ounces of very strong-brewed chai tea, ideally still hot.
1/2 ounce Jagermeister
1 ounce of Irish Cream (Used Carolan's this go-around; Personally prefer it to Bailey's)
1 tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk (The Vietnamese coffee stuff works best; Look for it in international foods at Stupidstore or your local Asian market).
Put the condensed milk in a small coffee mug first, pour the hot tea over it, mix well, then add the liquors.
Helped my brother get his first car ever, got it for a song and that was after it was fixed up ^.=.^ Lol wish my first car only cost me part of a paycheck haha.
The jockey of the horse that just won the Kentucky Derby is from Hastings Park!
The Richmond night market opens for the summer next week Friday night. I'm so excited, I love the night market!
The food is extraordinary. There's such a variety of strange exotic oriental dishes, and there are always one or two new vendors every year. I've never found anywhere else in the city that sells bbq squid, I've only ever eaten it at the night market. Also you can get all the fun out of a fancy dim-sum restaurant here for %10 of the cost. They have sticky rice, curry fish balls, sui-mai, tripe, sushi, and all manner of bbq'ed animal carcass. :9
I just got my first buddy request on here, i is happy and, obviously I accepted it
DIDDO! And Perfect summer Days were there's not a cloud in the sky and the sun is warm (NOT BURNING HOT!) Slite breeze in the air Goin for a drive Down the Road and up a mountain to just sit for a bit talk joke and Head back home. :) TODAY ROCKED MY SOCKS!
It's finally sandals weather! :D

I could go tonight maybe, but I can't stay late. I'd have to leave by 10pm latest. I'm a two hour bus ride away from Richmond and I work early tomorrow. Do you want to meet at 6pm at Bridgeport station if we do this thing?
I finally got a job!!! XD I'm a Stevedore now (AKA: Longshoreman) I'm sooooooo HAPPY ;D
Took an hour long cruise to the liquor store today pumping some tunes. Best mood i've been in in four months ;D
A nice stone-like sleep, followed shortly by buttermilk waffles. Waffles make everything awesome.
Awsome with the Job GOOD ON YA! jellious About the panCakes
But for me ITS the New Wendys Girl Cutest Red Head EVER! PLEASE HAUNT MY DREAMS FOREVER!
yes, i would agree, wendy`s new ad girl is very cute, but i would not go as far as the cutest red head ever, nicole kidman is much higher on the list for me :-3
Cold water on a hot day and Drenching your head in it. and things feeling better for a bit after that.
Cold water on a hot day, I'll rather jump into a lake or river, now this is quite a refreshing trip.
Until then, I enjoy to lay on the grass and meditate for ten minutes listening to stress reducing music. All the while you can see a strong red color as your eyelids cover your eyes and the sun shines on your face.
Just One UP'S me :) PAY DAY COMMING SOON!
Got my very first laptop returned to me as it was no longer needed by a relative, its more so a nostalgic kinda thing with me ^.=.^;
I was contacted today by a recruiter from a fairly large company who had found one of my skills profiles.
If I get this job, I might have to move to Seattle, but it'd be a real, paying job!
Got a job offer today with a decent pay. I'll be starting on Monday!
Congratulations on the jobs! Always a great achievement. Seattle is a great city, though suggest to have a car, transit is not as big as here.
Proud to say that I was able to stay dry last weekend while camping. Apologies to the other participants who got rather soaked but it was great time!

Well, sometimes you do not need a driver's license when you can tag along as a passenger. Though I will not deny that you enjoy more possibilities and freedom when you have one. One time you will get your license and enjoy the Unlimited.
moving to alberta at the end of June. :D
Lifting close to a hundred boxes that weigh between ninety and a hundred pounds and enjoying every minute of it. The best part: there's a chance I might do it again next week.
I'd like to see Richard Simmons do that.
Cat Bath (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSNW6qQqMO4#)

My happiness for the day? Really, really good Indian food. Give Mehfil on Scott Road a try, tasty Indian buffet.
Turfed out all my old, busted living room furniture (lousy old coffee table, 25+ years old, sofa at least 15 and recliner also 15) and replaced them with new sofa and table. Sure they're Ikea, but my living room is open and not cramped now... for the first time in a very long time. Might be enough to feel comfortable with people over rather than unhappy with all my old gear...
Good job tony guess were all coming over for a night of poker texas holdem at your house :)

Just finished the technical interview, to prove that I do have skills, and I feel fairly confident about it.
Now to wait for the next email...
That is an adorable video that you have here, better than the two talking cats (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3U0udLH974#).
For not I am working towards happiness, but things have been on the rise.
Turns out that flat tire I got yesterday was just a bad valve-stem, got it fixed up by my local mechanics, and no charge either. FTW
I received my Kindle today. 8)

Aye, don't worry, many furs on their first time out had been though this stage. :-3
I've been working a great deal lately, and spending much less on trivial crap than I have in the past. Although I've been spending less time out of the house with friends as a result, I have nearly $1k in extra savings from spending so little this month. The extra hours and extended shifts and foregoing costly little indulgences has really paid off.

Mmmmm.....Häagen-Daz Vanilla Ice Cream....
Had a wonderful small picnic myself early today at Rocky Point, sun finally broke through the clouds :-3 Rrrr..
There was a very young gosling with down that appeared to glow green in the overcast. A little child was saying "Mommy mommy the goose had a little puppy! a puppy!" which made me and a few others smile. Was nice enough out to grab a 24 and walk back up to where I live near Burquitlam.

This can be a challenge for many, but a great achievement once you've reached it. What I would add it the bottom is
I am happy to be happy
Sometimes you have to be happy about nominal things. You arrive at the skytrain station and less than a minute later the train arrives. Then you arrive at the transfer station and less than a minute later the bus arrived.
And even if you miss a bus or a skytrain in the city, enjoy the waiting time as a moment when you can take a breath and unwind a little from your daily schedule.
EDIT: I noticed that things to complain about is at 101 pages, while here we are at 69 pages. No need to be happier, but grief and frustration can often be prevalent.
Hmm, gotta move this back to the first page...
Today I found out that I've been visiting the nearby Tim Horton's often enough to be recognized as a fairly regular customer. =0.0=
I had an ice cream while I was there, then when I was ordering a hot chocolate for my walk home, the lady who'd served me earlier handed me a rewards card for my ice cream. =^.^=
Metric's new album Synthetica is officially out. 8D
My whole week just got that much better.
Two things today:
1: Despite the dark and forbidding clouds and the forecast of rain for the whole day, it stayed fairly dry until I finished delivering my newspapers!
(it had started to rain a little bit, but I told it to stop and it did)
2: My grandmother just bought a new laptop and I helped set it up for her.
Adding the wireless router to her network broke her internet access, but I managed to fix it with Telus's help.
Yay! =^.^=
Congrats Carl to have your grandmother introduce to computer and internet! That is an achievement.
For lunch I hid at a private gathering while it was pouring. When I left it had stopped raining, which is always nice.

Oh, she's been using a computer and the internet for quite a while, but with a desktop computer.
Lately, she's been having problems trying to read news articles on the monitor, so she and we are hoping a laptop will improve things.
(her printer's not entirely cooperative right now)
I have a 7-year old nephew who is taking a shining to Golf and Baseball, so I took him out to the driving and putting range while his Mom was working today. About a half-hour after we got there, it started really coming down, but we both decided to just have fun and keep putting and driving about in the rain until 5.
Sure enough, a few minutes before we said we should head home, the Sun came out and the rain came to a dead crawl so we could put another dry half-hour into staying and dried up the natural way. It was great :)
It rained again today! :)
It rained today, and my tattoo is starting to feel slightly less painful and scabbed.
Murrr, I was happy to see that my new jacket is really waterproof. It felt nothing less than amazing to walk through rain at night without worry about getting my fur all wet.
On Thursday, my umbrella broke.
Then it stopped raining.
No idea what's up with that...
Glad that we had a decent sunny day today. I don't mind rain when its fall/ winter, but when its this close to summer its a huge downer.
Finally getting my tax return after waiting 3 months for them to audit it. :o :-3

faithful new roots
I have today off!
I could bitch about the fact I can't go out tonight because I got to work in the morning, but I'm not going to. :birdy:
WORKING WITH GOOD PEOPLE! and GO FOR WORKING FOR A GOOD BOSS!!!!! Good days ahead my freinds GOOD DAYS AHEAD! :hug:
Having fun attempting to play dance central 2 with daitenshi
In the immortal words of Kathryn Janeway to her replicator, "Coffee, Black."
X-large from Timmies to be precise.
Should keep this tiger well enough for tonight.
It's Canada Day, need I say more? xP
went camping on the weekend.
just got upt to the coast after 2 dsays so i can get paid from fishing, no more rice 3 meals a day fuck ya
Might be getting a partial done! In time for halloween if I can. >.< :3 I are excite!
Finally all settled in and resting for the first night of my 2 week (possibly 3-4 week) vacation in Vegas. x3 Hopefully if I stay long enough I'll be able to celebrate my 21st birthday down here while I'm on vacation. :3 Woo!
Thing to be happy about #2: Had an awesome time lighting up a bunch of fireworks earlier~ XD and found out that there's an Anime Ramen Cosplay Cafe that my cousins told me about and hopefully later today I'll be able to go to it (though even if I don't go today, I've still got a week and a half) XD
A trip through Victoria's China Town revealed a lot more unique and interesting shops than I first though, especially when you travel through the back alleys. Haha was like something out of Harry Potter, especially when a good few of those shops were centered around the spiritual and the metaphysical.
Probably the coolest trip to Vic I did in years ^.=.^
Well, after complaining about how hot it was in the evenings, it finally cooled off properly last night.
Not only was there a lovely cool breeze blowing, but I also got my very own lightning storm.
While laying in bed and looking out my window, I was able to see the flashes of lightning as they bolted through the clouds. =^.^=
(I didn't notice any heading for the ground, though)
Just had my 30 day review at my new job and all seems to be going really well. I'm still nervous as all hell, but I'm really glad that I'm leaving a good impression so far. =)
I've spent my two days off not being a lazy hermit. I'm getting outside and enjoying the nice sunny weather. Hopefully this summer will not be a repeat of last year.
Looks like it's going to cool off again tonight, so maybe I'll actually get some sleep.
(somehow I got no sleep last night. Must have been the sudden drop in temperature and air pressure)

The place that I often order delivery from on my overnight shifts has begun customizing my receipts, and they greet me on the phone rather informally with "What can I get for you, (name)". Yeah. This amuses me. :3

Small shops like Craving For A Game I can understand being recognized, as they have only a few employees and are generally very friendly, but larger places like Tim's I don't quite get. Not yet, anyway.
Finally got to attend my first EA Burnaby play-testing session in seven months, and finally got a copy of Mass Effevt 3! =^.^=
We get got a new unit to replace the broken one

Got to see the Jabbawockeez perform yesterday (July 12th) at the Monte Carlo. #@$%ing amazing show. I'd definitely pay to see them again. Over. And over. And over. And over. Again. ~=0=~ b
Once again I got a nice show outside my bedroom window, with a whole bunch of lightning flashing through the clouds.
If it happens again, I've got to try taking pictures with my camera...
Got a decent lill AC unit for $30 off a co-worker ^.=.^
Thats right heat, you can suck it!
Got a beautiful postcard from a travelling loved one in the mail today. I'll treasure it always. I love cityscapes. Peculiar how the little things can make a day in one's life. I was super tired coming home from work tonight, and then I got this pleasant little surprise!
I've been staring at it all evening. It's from Switzerland. ;D
Zurich looks like a magnificent city.
Finally convinced myself to buy something off of my 'want' list instead of the 'need' list. New guitar! It's a Heritage Standard by Prestige - local company that's been doing quite well as a small manufacturer and puts out some great product. Considering my old Strat copy is 25 years old now, new gear is good.
(I'd post a photo, but the upload folder is full. =P )
Got Skylanders recently (haha mainly cause of Spyro and Cynder being in it) turned out to be a pretty good game, almost a sorta call-back to the old Spyro games. ^.=.^
I'm cautiously optimistic about the new fridge.
(fridge died four days ago, landlords replaced three days ago yesterday, and it died before we could start using it, so now they've replaced it with a much newer model, but had to cut out part of the cupboard above to get it to fit)
We also found out why the dishwasher stopped working was due to a fuse popping.
(the replacement should be here on Tuesday)
Minecraft Update!!! so many great fixes and new things best is now boats break lillypads instead of being broken by them.
I've been accepted onto the nurse training program at last, to compliment my college studies. Finally making good progress.
May be a few days late posting this one but..
BC FurBQ! After doing nothing more than working for months on end with the rare furry hangout (aside Howl and Vancoufur) it was nice to actually be around other like-minded fun loving people and just be myself, it was also nice to see how much more close knit the community has gotten over time ^.=.^
I was invited to participate in a TF2 party of sorts on Friday at SFU Surrey between students and staff, on the staff side. =0.o=
(which means I'll be there on Friday from 3:30 to 6, so if anybody wants to hang out beforehand, send me a PM)
Eating ice cream when it's this hot out. Rainbow Sherbert, yum. I'd have another bowl, but I don't want to call in sick tomorrow.
my friend just got this mascot suit, and is *SO* amped up about it. it's a raccoon suit built in '94. i never mention anything about furries to my friends, so i can't claim responsibility...he's so stoked he's dreaming up excuses to wear it. /ADORABLE
Nice, Back from Kamloops the City took half my munnyz so, a good visit.
BC Day gave me the rest I needed to recover, construction near me being delayed until tomorrow and so tiger got quality sleep.
That, and celebrating having not been eaten by a faceless dog :-3

Yeah! When we got most the way back down on our hike yesterday, a stream we passed by made the air nice and cool :-3
Thank goodness I'm currently in HK - I hope I can meet up with these hot guys on tour for the opening of the new Abercrombie & Fitch chain. I'm not there for the official store, I'm going to be there for the hot guys~!
:D
A&F HOT GUYS MAKE HISTORY IN HONG KONG (Part 1) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3da8Bu3lvA#ws)
You sure will Tef.
Come back to Vancouver safely, and we had some hot days lately as well.
While browsing through Zellers looking for music for my sister's (now past) birthday, I found a three-disk set of Scott Joplin's Ragtime music for five bucks! =^.^=
(I also picked up a refurbished Android phone with a physical keyboard for only $80. It's a pity the physical keyboards are going out of fashion...)
laughs at myself for being Behined the times on phones and Music. :-[ :P :) ;) :D ;D :-3
I'm done with my internship! Time to enjoy the last of my holidays! And thanks, Wereman!
I Don't Have a Favorite Pony (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8tVoriImK8#ws)
Two of my favorite things... Hank Green and MLP. :)
IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY!!!!
Managed to attend the A&F place on the first day. Huge crowds, and I didn't get a picture with the models, but...however, it was still worth it.
Going camping to the place of my childhood summer memories this weekend with a fantastic guy. The weather is going to be sunny and hot, not a cloud in the sky the whole forecast. We're tenting it, I'm borrowing my parents old portable camp hotplate and am going to be cooking all the meals myself for the next three days.
All our fruit and veggies are being bought fresh from the farm stalls in Keremeos, Penticton, Oliver and Osoyoos. With the huge Sockeye salmon run the lakes are seeing this year I want to pick up some fresh fish. I'll clean, gut and debone it myself, should be a fun new experience. ;3
Man, I love having Telus for my cell carrier!
I just got off the phone with them about my prepaid plan getting drained by my new smartphone, and they credited back everything the phone used in data, as well as blocking my phone from using any data, just in case something figures out how to enable Mobile Data access!
I'm happy again! =^.^=
My sore throat is all but gone! I'm not sure if it was strep throat because I never went to the doctor, I'm just happy the damn thing is gone. I can't wait to enjoy food without discomfort.
Glad that your sore throat is gone, strep throat can be a pain. Been there once.
Telus is one carrier to check out. Rogers has been doing pretty well thus far. Good coverage when recently going camping.
Found out recently that just about any Android phone can be used as a testing platform for in-development apps. =^.^=
(take that Apple!)
ok - so you didn't win the lottery, you aren't an honour student, you don't have a lover, but considering the alternative, don't you feel happy to be alive?
Hellz ya, Ehem now its time to shop for a new Mp3 ;D......again :gay:
Got TV from Sairys today! (thank you again, took bit to get SNES functional)
My Tek has finally got a buddy to emit static with :-3

Oscilloscope for fun displaying what the remote control is sending (volume down there)
Be happy that you are alive and healthy Tokar. That is the basic I think of whenever I see someone in a wheelchair or even more extreme, when someone is really overweight taking up two seats (tends to be more common to the south across the border).
Coolies, Sairys gave you a TV? Awesome from him!
I'm starting work this Monday, as an auxiliary nurse. Excited and a touch anxious at the same time.
Approached my manager today, asked him if he had time to sit down for a walk with me..
I told him all about what was essentially co-worker harassment and what had been going on with the attitude of one guy I work around and surprisingly the manager was somewhat aware of what had been going on and will be giving that co-worker a bit of a attitude check. I was actually very surprised how understanding and on my side he was for most of the talk, at the very end of the talk he even said to me "I have to commend you on coming to me like this... that really takes some serious... well.. you know, you really stuck your neck out there, even though your neck was never in danger here. Not many people could just walk right up to a manager and ask THEM to sit down and have a talk, that really take some courage, I am impressed."
So all in all, I am happy that things around work are actually rather good and its just ONE bad apple trying to stir shit and cause drama. Thank god he will get dealt with too.
Kudos to you, Drake, and your manager too!
I'm two days away from my flight back to Vancouver, and I've gotten myself a Galaxy S3! All it takes for me now is to return to Vancouver and check up on the phone plans...
School starts in one week! (yes, for some reason this actually does make me excited this year... probably because I'll be headed to a new university this 1st semester.)
My birthday is coming up in 2 weeks and some close friends I haven't seen in a long time will be showing up. >w< Excited.
I HAVE HAMS!
Scientists are rapidly approaching the quantum curve, technological prowess is about to grow explosively, and when it does, death will be nothing more than a minor setback, anyone can be anything they want (like real live furries WUT! SO AWESOME), all violence will end, world hunger will be solved, etc etc, there are technological solutions to all these problems and more and from what I've observed I'm pretty sure all this will happen in my lifetime! SO EXCITING.
I find technological expansion rather interesting :D Lol hopefully we can transcend beyond just making overpriced phones XD
Extended lives would actually be rather interesting. One curiosity I have always had was the potential to somehow preserve the conscience mind even beyond death. Though I know that is a huuuuuge can of worms. ^^;
I saved this site a long time ago but it's kind of interesting and sort of related. http://www.mprize.org/ (http://www.mprize.org/)
Sevrin isn't the imagination a wonderful thing? you keep thinking that way and life will be wonderful all the time. say hello to the men in the white coats for me
Actually Drake, that might not be as preposterous as you might think, sure it may lead to many problems relating to ethics and whatnot but it's already underway and perhaps you would be interested in checking out the IBM SyNAPSE project?
http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/business_analytics/article/cognitive_computing.html (http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/business_analytics/article/cognitive_computing.html)
It's just an attempt to build better computers based on the human brain, but technology like this combined with brain copying technology (which are also in development but finding all these sources for everything is giving me a headache) would allow consciousness uploading, then all you would need is emotion emulation software... it's a distant prospect but its very possible it could happen in our lifetimes.

Imagination takes no part in this, I have actual sources for my claims, I'll give you some examples of what I mean:
extending life with genetic engineering, developing toxin cleansing bacterium, and many other methods:
they are already doing experiments on prolonging the life of mice, and succeeding! as shown in Nibi's post. mice are genetically quite similar to humans, so things that work on mice, would not be hard to replicate on humans. You see, the thing about our DNA is that it is very far from perfect, and there are actually gene sequences that are responsible for much of our aging, if you could just remove these gene sequences you would be able to live much MUCH longer!
http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.1089/rej.2011.1258 (http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.1089/rej.2011.1258)

there are also other methods, like removing the garbage that your body is incapable of dealing with or removing that slowly gunks up your body as you get older, look up aubrey de grey if you want to find out more about it, I'm not interested in finding more sources for you.
cloning organs with pig organ scaffolding: the process of decellularizing organs and filling them with the recipients stem cells causing it to recellularize with the hosts cells, therefor decreasing the odds of organ rejection to almost nothing, this can be done with pig organs. this process could easily extend the lives of humans by 50 years.

its a very new concept so I wasn't able to find much more reliable information on it, but there you go.
there's also genetic engineering in plants, computers designed to emulate biological brains, realistic android creation, increasingly more accurate brain mapping and many other such things, I don't care about proving my point to you enough though to spend the next hour looking for more sources.
There's two things I'm happy about this coming weekend: I may work this Saturday and earn a little more overtime, and/or I'll have a three day weekend.
These blueberries are soooo delicious! :popcorn:
Got a dash cam for my car off e-bay for only $25 not that bad of a unit either O.=.o
I love e-bay..
Tired but happy...I'm finally back in Vancouver!
Last night was amazing, I went for a walk in the park, and I was the only one there for most of my walk, the temperature was perfect for a brisk walk, not so cold as to be uncomfortable, but just cold enough so that I wouldn't get hot. The almost entirely full moon was beautiful and cast just the perfect amount of light, and the clouds were visible and there were enough of them to be scenic, but not obscure the moon. *sigh* I wish every night could be like that! :-3

Took words out of my mouth -
My midnight nature stroll involved a lone coyote following me. Made for one of those mystical nights.
Ah yes, tonight is a blue moon you guys. :3 Next time it'll happen will be in 2.7 years.
[insert blue moon joke here]
Had someone hug me today and tell me my hair smells fantastic! made my day :-3
OMG, I finally killed the mosquito that was hiding in my room and sucking me up for the last 5 days!
Bumped in to Void on way to pick up few supplies for the swamp tromp tomorrow putting smile on my face, and a package on way back containing a neat electronics kit I ordered. Had to let out "murrr..." few times under my breath going past some of the nature scenery. Stoney Creek, Burnaby and coastal mountains are so beautiful...
Edit: Murr? Randomly I am given sushi! *chomps down on salmon sashimi*
Despite how warm it's been today and yesterday, the breeze has been downright chilly at times. =^.^=
I discovered a stash of jasmine tea someone had hidden away in the back of our spice cupboard. :monocle:

Me and Morrogh also went out for the Blue Moon, spent about 2 hours walking around and just chilling, I missed doing stuff like that, hadn't done it in a LONG time. was relaxing and kinda energizing ^.=.^

Thanks Nibi! charming and encouraging as always ;)
It's amazing how much easier it is to lose weight when you eat healthy! not only do I have more energy for going out and getting exercise, but I can eat as much of the healthy food as I need to stay satisfied without it making me feel greasy or lethargic!
The thing I have to be happy about today though is: I'm so glad I decided to go outside today! :D I was all mopey and like "oh woe is me, how am I ever gonna drum up the energy to go outside" but I had a shower and I went outside and now I feel fantastic (as usual) I don't know why I ever think that going outside would take energy, all it does is make me feel great! and it helps me lose weight so I feel better about myself too! man all that depression stuff I was doing even just a week ago sure seems silly now! I mean really, what was I thinking? ;D
Got the missing DVD of Yellow Submarine replaced...with Blu-Ray!
Picked up a real cool salt rock lamp, makes for awesome mood lighting and dragony decor, among other things ^.=.^

Auto sorting Coinstar things at those safeways are useful, 12% fee bit better than rolling endless unknown coins...
I went out to hang out with some new people and I went to furry sushi today, I had a ton of fun! I got to meet a bunch of new people, as well as get better acquainted with some people I know! boy do I regret all that time I spent being antisocial! silly me, video games should not be something used in place of social interaction, or to escape your problems. I sure am glad I'm not that person I was two years ago! I'm much wiser now! and I'm definitely not a fool anymore and will never make any more mistakes for the rest of my life, obviously. :V

Learned how to use another feature of the rendering program I use.
It's sure helped the images take less time to be less noisy!
(Blender's new Cycles rendering engine is kind of odd that way)
Dad brought me coffee and a muffin this morning.
Aaahh, life is good.
Nothing makes me happy and gives me hope like Aubrey de Grey, just the thought that I am VERY LIKELY to have the privilege to live for an extremely long time, and see all the wonders that humanity has to offer, all the amazing things that are to come far beyond the current average 80 year lifespan gives me hope and makes me feel invincible, all my problems seem like nothing in the face of all the wonders I will get to experience within my lifetime, and I have hope.
I feel secure in the fact that no matter how far I may fall, (this is going to sound extremely cheesy) science will catch me, this world we live in is full of so many wonders! I just can't believe how I used to think things were hopeless, life is fantastic and I am an amazingly lucky person to be alive today.
You too! can experience my hope and my joy, with the wonders of Aubrey de Grey, this man is my favorite person in the world right now
Big Think Interview with Aubrey de Grey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJOcrSpe-yI#)
that video may be over half an hour, but it felt like five minutes to me, everything he said, every single word out of his mouth lifted my spirits, I can hardly fathom what the prospects of near immortality would mean, all the progress of the human race ALL OF IT would be at my fingertips! I can hardly wait for the future! oh if only I could make time go faster! I LOVE LIFE! fuck I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight am I.
Hiking/tiger-roaming yesterday shy of 35km alone to maple ridge in the early morning.
(2:30am) Burnaby -> Coq. -> PoCo -> (sunrise) -> Pitt Meadows -> Maple Ridge (9am)
It felt great, indescribable views (link) (http://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1487;sa=pictures;view=3956) of the sunrise, rivers, farmland (http://i.imgur.com/U4uf9.jpg) and moon above, and I am much happier today because of it.
Absolutely would hike with someone before sunrise anywhere to view these things again...
Tigerface.

Not while I'm around! XD I have no life so I keep on finding new things to watch... >.>;;
I got deterred off of science right now though ever since I downloaded the 8 seasons of Whose Line is it Anyways? So yup.
Also, things to be happy about...um, I got a birthday present from myself to me! xD A Corsair Vengeance 1500 gaming headset. :-3 Whoohoo!
Yeah, where do you find all those shows anyways? Like that army of youtube channels you suggested, that should keep me entertained for some time, maybe a few weeks was a bad estimate o.o
Oh god 8 seasons >.< that'll keep you busy for a while.

I'm magical. XD I really am, I just find them. I spend too much time on YouTube and just come across a lot of the channels I watch. So if I find more interesting ones, I'll be sure to let you know. :3

...um, I got a birthday present from myself to me! xD A Corsair Vengeance 1500 gaming headset. :-3 Whoohoo!
Things to be happy about: ...Happy Birthday?
: Nibi September 09, 2012, 10:54:38 -06:00
...ever since I downloaded the 8 seasons of Whose Line is it Anyways? So yup.
...
Oh god I did that too a while back and I wasn't heard from for at least a week.
Really though that was such an awesome show, I wish they could get it going again (I know they've tried a few different things but they never seemed as good imo).
I'm not sure if I already said this, but I'll say it again: being able to lift and carry hundred pound boxes with ease.

Yeah, it's really amazing. XD Everytime I'm bored I'll just watch it for an hour or two. Colin is definitely my fav. along with Wayne. :D
Oh that reminds me of this interesting thing that happened to me a little over a year ago, I was at the improv center on granville island and I'm not 100% sure, my memory is a little fuzzy, but a comedian I recognized from just for laughs was performing! and as he walked by me he scritched my head! (I was wearing a tail and a collar at the time) and the reason this is relevant is that I'm pretty sure it was Colin Mochrie! though it might have been someone else I'm not 100% sure, I know that I saw them once on just for laughs though.

Dawww. >3< That's awesome sauce! Colins is a pretty nice guy. :-3
any day you wake up is reason to be happy
I GOT LOTS OF BIRTHDAY MONEY! :D And now I'm going to spend it all on buying a Albino Ball Python. ^^ Or a Lavender Ball Python, OH! Maybe a sugar belly, oh oh! Super Pastel or Piebald! =w= Can't wait.

On Thursday, TSN is airing Game 3 of the legendary 1987 Canada Cup Final between Canada and the Soviet Union...why are you all looking at me that way?
I had two people today tell me I'm going to fit in well with them, and three separate women in the last week compliment me on being sane or rational (which is apparently a rare quality?) I've made several new friends in the last couple weeks, I'm losing weight at about 3+ lbs per week, and my life is overall going in a really great direction! ;D
Also this sandwich is really delicious.

I must have had a cold this last week, as I only started to feel good enough to sing along to my music today.
It kind of feels good to sing a bit again! =^.^=
Happy International Chocolate Day! :D
Let's all have some Timmies!

:birdy:
This is the best thing I've ever seen.
So, yeah. I saw a friggin COUGAR last night. It was an adolescent, and was no more than about 15 feet away from the truck I was in.
I've seen cougers before, but it's been a looooong time since I last saw one, and the last one I saw was an adult male, huge, hungry, and marchin' up the street towards my school. Unfortunately, that one had to be destroyed, as all of us students waited inside and watched. This guy was wild, free, and bopping along the road in front of us like he hadn't a care in the world.
I'm not gonna lie, it was pretty spectacular. ^.~
I've got my drawing skills back on track to an acceptable level.
My art muse appears to have come back as of late, and have worked on at least five scenes in the last two weeks.
(I still shudder to think about all the scenes still stuck in my Works-In-Progress folder, though)
Had an amazing birthday party last night and got stupid drunk. xD;;; Spilt 5 drinks on myself throughout the night because I was a retard, but good times~ =w= <3
2nd time I've ever been drunk in my life so yup, was interesting indeed. :birdy:
Bread.
I like bread.
A lot.
mmmmm bread. hot, fresh out of the oven and lots of butter. maybe a little stew or beans but lots of hot fresh bread and butter mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Talked with my stepfather tonight about my views on life and on people, and he seemed really impressed, he told me how it took him till he was 35 to realize some of the things I said, it made me feel really mature haha ^_^
My brother bought himself a new desk on Saturday, so I got his old one.
I spent Sunday trying to fit it in my rather crowded room, and still haven't finished moving things around just yet.
But at least my computers are set up again! =^.^=
I'm buying a couch on Saturday, can't wait. =w= Getting it on sale so I'm saving $300-$400. Whoohoo!

New at the Brick. :3 I have a problem when it comes to buying used bedding, couches, chairs, ect. xD;;; I can by used stuff for a lot of other things but definitely what I mentioned. A little phobia or pet peeve if you will. :P
Probably healthy, what with the bedbug epidemic.
I got lots of hugs today, also on a somewhat related note; rainrat if you're reading this, you're a pretty cool guy, see you thursday!

Aw, thank you. You're awesome too.
I just saw three deer infront of my house on the way home from work. >3< And one of them was a fawn with his mom. :3 I got less then 10 ft from them since they were standing right beside my driveway and I quickly ran inside and back onto my deck to watch them. It was so cute how every time I made a sound the fawn got spooked and got closer to his mom. =w= <3 I tried to take pictures but it was too dark out to get a good one and I didn't want to turn on the outside light. Curse my shitty digital camera, wish I had a cannon or something like that.
Red Dwarf X. That is all.
The knee injury I got on Sunday feels so much better now.
Hardly any twinges when going down stairs, and none going up them.
Given another couple of days and I won't feel a thing! =^.^=
mmmm bread machine making my first loaf of bread. 2 hour 20 minute wait ....get butter ready mmmmhot bread nom nom nom nom nom nom all gone
Yup, homemade bread doesn't last very long over here either, unless we ration it.... =^.~=
Had an awesome night at game night, saw some people I haven't seen in a while, met some new ones, and had fun with friends!
Cool invention! http://www.vat19.com/dvds/levitron-revolution-floats-levitates-objects.cfm (http://www.vat19.com/dvds/levitron-revolution-floats-levitates-objects.cfm) as far as I can tell it's a magnetic levitater, it's utterly useless, but it's still pretty cool.
I made Chili Cheddar Biscuits to go with dinner on Wednesday and they still taste good! =^.^=
Best part of Friday? One class in the afternoon from 12-1300 hours. :)
Weekend will be gorgeous enough to go riding one last time before being forced to put the motorcycle away for the winter. ^^
My plans for today were cancelled, but it gave me a chance to do some much needed housecleaning, my place looks so much better now!
I found out that Blender (http://blender.org/), a free 3D modelling and rendering tool I use, can be set up to use a graphics card's GPU to render its imagery faster.
(which would be kind of nice, as most of my images take hours to render right now)
It only cost me about $130 (not including the $50 for the power supply I thought I needed), but I got it, and it works!
(at least, under Linux. I still haven't booted into Windows 7 or XP just yet)
I bought a couch, new dish set (saved $500 today because of sales) and I got a late birthday present that is a SSD. That's why I haven't been on in awhile because I had to re-install windows and all my programs onto it. :3 But now my computer is super fast!!! :D
Finally my weekend, short but sweet lol
I just got in contact with an old friend that I thought was avoiding me, turns out they just changed emails! :-3
I was feeling happy that it is nearly the Mid Autumn Festival, so I decided to slice the sun into two. I control nature bro, don't be messing with me. 8)

Garry's Point Park, if you guys are wondering where I took a picture of the moment.
That picture is really cool. :D
But I feel as if the sun's trying to be a hamburger. :< Poor sun, you can never be a hamburger.
Also, my house is clean now! :-3 *wiggles about*

I heard about this EXP Restaurant/Bar that is in Vancouver with video games and bar food. Why haven't I heard 'bout it till now? I seriously would like to spend a Friday afternoon there for tea or something. :D
It looks like a job at Google in Waterloo would be a great fit for my skills.
Now to see how good I make myself look on paper...

Watching "The Amazing Race" series on Youtube, which brought back nostalgia as to how much I loved watching the series when I was a kid - sure helped me a ton in my middle and high school geography classes.
Re-watching a lot of MLP episodes kinda inspired me to sit down for a while last night and make a spike version of myself (see forum avatar) ^.=.^
I don't quite know which category this goes in right now, but in the past couple of months, my metabolism has gone up, I've been eating more and still feeling hungry, and yet I'm still only 145 pounds... =o.0=
When you wake up, and there's coffee.
It doesn't matter how, but if you wake up and there is coffee, all will be well.
Laying on a park bench while there is soft rain going for a short period of time and i don't get soaked. Thinking about people,revenge on a bastard friend who screwed me over, some lyrics, next snowboarding season, and most of all how i ended up on the bench. Sky above clears into a bright blue, It had been gloomy all day, and i get all emotional. Life is good, even if it treats you bad for a short period of time.
An excellent batch of self-made, home-made borscht. Pickled onion (Sour broth!), an entire head-plus of cabbage, two or three pounds of beets and potatoes, a half-kilogram of diced slab bacon, seasoned Ukrainian style? Good hearty food makes an otter happy!

Otta don' care. Have tasty foods! *tailsway*
I got my new orthotics on Wednesday, and despite the warning the specialists gave me, I was able to do a pretty good amount of walking in them without having much if any issues wearing them. =^.^=
HNNNNNNNNNNNG! >3< I have nothing specific besides life is awesome. Just stoked about any and everything, I get hyped up just sitting here being alive. xD
OH! I could mention...HALLOWEEN!!! :D Favourite time of year!!! Cannot wait to scare the crap out of my friends. >D
(One year whenever I have the money I definitely plan on dressing up as a Xenomorph, but it won't be a cheap costume and I'll probably spend too much on it, but it's something I must accomplish!)
:-3 I KNOW RIGHT? LIFE IS SWEET!
ice cream sandwiches, they're so freakin' yummy, and delicious, they're yummylicious!
also fish and chips, and popcorn shrimp, and popcorn, FOOD IN GENERAL, being able to taste food even more
I thought my cold was a curse, but I think it may be a blessing! I just got accepted into a meditation course I wanted to go to, 10 days in Merritt! having a cold while there would really suck, so getting the cold before going there means I'm most likely immune for the duration of the course!
Long weekend. Which means I get to kick back on a Friday night with minimal worries for my work until getting myself back in gear with an extended break.
I got a new really comfy hoodie >.> and im really lovin it XD
considering the alternative, it makes me happy to open my eyes in the morning
Waking up before your alarm clock wakes you up
I do that all the time, Red. And afterwards, I realize its pretty difficult to fall back asleep. xP
Yeah, I don't think my alarm clock has ever woken me up, unless I forget to turn it off on weekends
It's fall! Pokemon black and white 2 is out! My mate is slow cooking a ham for dinner. I get to go shopping for decorations! Life is good.
Also my older cat (he's two, not old, just older than my other) has decided it's cold enough to start sleeping on the bed again! Yaaaay! He's so fluffy and warm!
Aaaaand! And! My friend just confirmed a litter of puppies to be due in December! We're getting a dog! :D
iiiiiii'm soooo happy today!!!

The rain makes me sooooo happy. Everything smells nice, it's a little warmer now because of the cloud coverage and it's such a soothing sound. Awesome stuff. :-3
Nothing better than rain on a roof to help you get to sleep
I just bought $120 worth of music for $20.
Gotta love those Zellers' sales! =^.^=
Edit: Figured out how to play the five albums that didn't want to play under ordinary circumstances!
(turns out I have to "read" the disk with my file manager first, before the tool I use to MP3 the disk has a crack at it)

Strange as it may be, though it may be agreeable in cases is that I'm not really a big fan of the sun and clear skies. :P
Finally went to Seattle again and got me a cheese cake. A CHEEZE. CAKE. QUAD CHOCOLATE! Those are so damn good. it was worth the drive. Haha. I did a lot there, and got a new shirt. Pikes market and The smoke shops were cool to Check out.

Hmm, nice!
Well, my good luck with dry weather on days I deliver newspapers appears to still be going strong.
Going from previous forecasts, today was supposedly going to be wet, then downgraded to a chance of rain, and now it doesn't look like it's going to rain until tonight! =^.^=
I'd like to second the motion for being happy about the weather. Reading a book in the sun at the bay, and it's lovely. XD
Okay, it seems I was a little premature about the rain today, because it did rain a bit while I was delivering my second route, and kind of hard too.
The good news is that it started light, and at a point that made it easy for me to quickly head back home to protect the newspapers and change jackets.
That way, I was able to keep the papers relatively dry while I finished my route. =^.^=
(it was also nice that the rain didn't last much longer than 20 minutes!)
Good weather by days end AND finally a certain order of mine is ready *bounces*
Now if only things with my fursuit actually work out this will all be perfecto! Would like to end the year of the dragon as a dragon. X3
hearing good words of encouragement
finding out i might have a place of my own for the end of the month
preventing the tow truck from taking my truck (saved big bucks)
getting financial help so i now have my own money in pocket
getting a led on a great paying job

One of the best feelings ever - nearly finishing up with my 4 page single space research project while 1. it's due next Wednesday, and 2. my friends have yet to start on it.
This morning I was excused from jury duty (going to be on vacation) and my code started working. After a long, stressful week it was pretty good to have some good news.
Today I learned that blowing tapioca pearls through a bubble tea straw makes a really hilarious sound. :D

Otherwise, I'd be pretty much stuck with my poor 2D drawing skills...
There's a chance I'm going to be able to see my girlfriend again at Leakycon. :D (Yeah, it's a while away, but we're on opposite sides of the country, so this is great considering. xP)
I can't wait for the meditation course I'm going to! only 3 more days! I have high hopes for the beneficial mental and physical effects it will have on me! ideally less anxiety (although I've been doing a pretty good job of controlling that lately) as well as losing weight (because apparently people burn up to 10 lbs while at it)

Garlic. Sure, overindulging's liable to lead to paint-peeling breath attacks, and caustic sweat, but damnit, garlic! Tasty!

I have a decent job, a roof over my head, enough to eat, and prospects for a much more fulfilling job in the future. It's easy for life to seem stagnant and mundane, but it's really very good, when you think about it.
I'm up to something, and I think I'm having gigglefits about it.

That sir, is absolutely amazing.
Haven't cried in a while. Except when someone decided to blast hurt - Johnny cash while in class. Such a powerful song and reminds me of a lot of things. I miss my brother. But he's loving a great life, he recently impressed a big blues band in minnesota with a big red book of psychology and they all joined in on the conversation. I think that's pretty awesome considering he's not social at all.
I can't stop playing pokemon conquest, it's fun to me! Also... it's a really nice day to make cupcakes!

The Trent Reznor original always does it for me. Instant lemur sad face.
In the last two weeks I have visited home(Van), visited old friends from there(furry and otherwise), met new furs who are all fabulous people, found an awesome place to keep my motorcycle over the winter, gotten myself set up with a half-decent climbing gym, jammed with two different musical groups, and acquired a couple of shiny effects pedals for my guitar rig. S'been a pretty wicked month. XD

I learned to play that on my guitar, though I've been bad about keeping practiced lately. My calluses are getting a bit pathetic.
I took a decently-long walk in the sun on my lunch break and I have a barbecue with my old team at work tonight.

All designs evolve. This one's ready for UDK! 4534 tri at maximum LOD, UV'd and pending a high-poly geo bake. I got sick of waiting for a decent SHMUP in the vein of Einhander 2 or Gradius VI, so Loial, Geenz and I, have decided to make one. Squee!

Oooh i was so excited to be able to wear my hoods! I have three :) husky, wolf and rainbow kitty!
Yesterday I made my first quiche almost from scratch.
(the filling was leftovers, and I made the crust myself)
It was quite tasty! =^.^=
All the junk food going around right now. :-3 I love this time of year so much.
Make sure you eat some vegetables between the junk food. Actually for one week or so I was eating mostly chips and then saw the effect it had on me.
Looking forward to the next furry event, so much for now.

This was initially a Complaint post, but...
I was taking the Translink Bus back home from the skytrain station when this inconsiderate girl in front of me was playing her shit music at goodness knows how many decibels. Gordon Bennett.
This went on for a few more stops, when suddenly, the bus driver stopped the bus before he reached the next stop, got down from his seat, and faced the girl in front of me, taking it up for the bus by saying, "Miss, can you please turn down your music?"
I mentally cheered, and my night was made! :D
Discovering that from time to time, I apparently eat poorly, and the sheer positive influence a good pick-me-up smoothie can have. Amazing what a blenderload of fruit and yogurt can do for mood and energy, simply amazing. Otter has bouncy again!
Funny you mentioned smoothies, I've been making them at home a lot lately. They're amazing.
Also, puns make me very happy. Good on ya PandaB. XDDDDD (Not sure if it was intentional or not)

Lucky you, the last time I was on the bus some D-Bag was blasting his rap music, and I happened to be listening to music also (at a much lower level), anyways the bus driver looks back at me and yells: "Hey! Turn down your music or get off the bus!" I didn't bother correcting him though :(
I ran in to Hunny and Felix on the way home, was a bit loopy but really cheered up my night. That's 7 furries in the Lougheed area I've bumped in to during day to day activities.

Super deliciousness! Blended the following:
- 1 cup of Balkan style yogurt
- Half a pint of raspberries
- Half a dozen large strawberries
- A half-handful or so of cranberries
- Two teaspoons worth of Lebanese-style pomegranate paste-concentrate
- Two mandarins

it really is a good feeling. I still have to get the detailing done on the moon, and my mom's initials (probably on the tree like it's carved in if I can) but progress feels good (painful though)
My friend baked a lot of stuff last night and brought it over for Halloween!!! Soooo happy! :-3
Also, also! Got a good laugh last night. We were handing out full sized chocolate bars to the kids that came by and one group yelled, "Your one of those houses!!!" and got super excited and ran away to their parents ecstatic over it! =w= Cuuuute. <3
Finally got my residency position in UBC for the next term! :-3
-everything went better than expected.
I got the position I wanted for my practicum, it's official!
Yesterday was amazing, I love my friends. :hug:
I'm watching Jim Gaffigan's, Mr. Universe.
Just got back from Merritt yesterday, the course was soooooooooooo hard! but it was worth it! I lost 10 lbs while up there (OMG SO MUCH!) and while I didn't get what I hoped from the course, I still got a lot and am happy with what I learned.

Much as I hate to rain on any parades, that assertion might be a bit premature. It's a non-binding referendum, the new PR government apparently doesn't support statehood, and Republicans apparently are generally against it and control the House.

Today I finished writing a very small program that helps me play Scrabble-like online games such as Popotamo (http://en.popotamo.com/), providing suggestions for words based on the letters you have.
It will even allow you to specify some tiles that are on the board already, in case you're having problems placing words.

Safeway. They've been having some great deals on their cases of 24oz bottles of pop. Today I paid ten dollars for four cases. Can't beat that
Can't sleep for the pain in my back and the constant coughing, so I got a bit nostalgic and looked up the people I knew from 2002-2008 before I moved to the coast, hard to believe where everyone's lives have taken them. So many have kids, some moved across the country, some look much better, some look way worse. It's strange, it's only been four years but I think most of them, I could pass them on the street and not know it was them. Weird feeling since the same 60+ people dominated my life and often made it a living hell, for six whole years. Everything changes so quickly. I've moved on, and so have they. It makes me feel oddly content.
Yup, must have been a cold and a sore throat.
Throat's better, it doesn't hurt to swallow any more.
Now to work on the cold...
Cold is getting better.
I'm sounding worse, and starting to cough stuff up.
Also, I'm quite lucky that I managed to deliver my newspapers when I did, because it was about the only dry time of day!
Barely an hour after I got back home, it started to rain heavily.
If it had been a little earlier in the day, it would even have been sunny!
Home cooking. After a long day of work/school in the cold of winter. Whats better than hot food you (or someone else) made?
Wii u! Wii u!

Supposedly, higher risk of certain diseases. AKA: Gay = AIDS.
I think it's because they had a huge outbreak in the 80's with gays getting AIDS (just sayin' what I've heard), but since then sexual education has gotten a lot better so I'm going to make the assumption that it's no longer needed to ban all gays from donating blood.
Either way, I got banned from donating blood because it was faulty and they thought I had something and then they sent me a later saying, "Oops! You're actually perfectly healthy, but because we fucked up, you can never donate blood again." =.= They need to get their shit together. XD

what I was thinking, and here I thought Canada had gotten past the whole "AIDS is the gay disease" bull puckey
Ok so that makes a little bit of sense in a stupid kind of way (just test the person for said diseases wut? no that's too complicated I guess?) but can't people just say they aren't gay? I mean how are they going to prove a person is gay?
I put pyrotechnic devices on top of beer earlier.

They could just say they aren't gay and it wouldn't be that big of a deal either because they still check ALL of the blood that's donated before they use it. :\

Exactly. Sometimes it's easy to forget how fucked up the world is, things like this are unfortunate reminders of all the crazy, everywhere I look there is so much crazy, I'm practically swimming in the stuff!
I finally wrote something new in a story I haven't touched for close to six months.
I was unable to deliver my newspapers until late today, about the time the weather claimed it would be raining.
It also had started to rain lightly when I started, but seemed to stop once I started walking.
And here I thought I wouldn't be so lucky with the weather today... =^.^=
Today while shopping at Safeway, I saw someone who looked just like Mrs. Fredrik from warehouse 13! and then shortly after that I saw someone who had the same hair as Claudia o.o
I noticed that it was Mr.Dressup's 85th birthday today, so I watched a few episodes of it, and also learned that it was actually made before
Mr. Rogers. Take that America!
I got off work a little late tonight, walked home in th cold and was greeted outside my house by one of my cats. I walked inside to the house smelling SOOOO good! My bf made an apple roasted chicken and polenta for dinner! I'm a full and very VERY happy hellhound right now! :3

Apparently carrots make great lip balm ??? I've been suffering from remarkably dry lips for a long time, but especially the last couple days, and rubbing carrots on them for some reason seems to help rehydrate them!

a tv show called - Canadian Made. all about things made in Canada. computer graphic design is Canadian made for example. we all have heard of the Canadarm for the space program. the different time zones around the world is Canadian made. Instant replay on tv is Canadian made.
and of course so much more. Ebay was developed by a Canadian.
BE PROUD TO BE A CANADIAN !!
Yup. The instant replay was invented so we could see our favourite hockey moments a second time! =^.^=
(of course, it wasn't exactly instant at the time. It was taped onto projection film, and so had to be developed before it could be shown again. This was before they came up with magnetic video tape)
We Canadians and our love of hockey!
CHRISTMAS TIME!!!! :D WHOOOOOOOOO! Got my tree and decorations and I'm stoked!
Regularly like clockwork, one of the houses I deliver newspapers to left a package for me in their mailbox.

I got a new family member! :D He's a Domestic crossed with Main Coon (the Main Coon is definitely the dominant genes) and he's so fluffy and awesome! :-3 All he does is purr, knead and rub up on everything, such a sweetheart. <3 He's hanging out in my room till tomorrow evening and then he gets to explore the rest of my house with my other cat put into my bedroom in the meantime. Hopefully tomorrow night or the next day I can introduce the two. Still deciding on his name though.... <:

this is one of those feel good make you cry videos. i don't care how strong you think you are, i would almost (no money to do so) bet it brings tears to your eyes. please watch.
Jared Stevens' First Wrestling Match (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-pInwGuhJw#ws)
That was brave of not only the boy with the handicap, but also the boy wrestling him. Reminded me of how my school took a student with cerebral palsy to the top of Mt. Albert Edward, with him, and 200 pounds of his equipment on a 4 day trip. I couldn't find the video of it though :(
This video neither made me smile nor cry. So I must be pretty strong.
I got into Valve's Steam for Linux closed beta! Woot! =^.^=

Let's see, two more things:
1: I finally picked up new batteries for my clip-on LED light, and it's much brighter with the new batteries.
2: I get to see the Fraser Valley Gilbert and Sullivan Society's production of "Phantom of the Panto" today. (Sunday)
*SQUEE*
not much to say but i found this on reddit

Okay, that was surprising!
During the audience participation song (Manah-Manah) at Phantom of the Panto, one of the actors started singing "O Canada" and made the offhand comment about feeling like Mark Donnelly.
Well, it turns out that Donnelly himself was in the audience, and came onstage (totally unscripted!) and helped sing along! =^.^=

I have two taste tests coming up, and I just completed a survey yesterday! thats 135$ of bonus money in a week! not to mention I've got some extra work coming up in a couple days, it pays more than I'm used to, so there's another $45 at least (probably more like $75) Christmas shopping this year is going to be easier with all this extra money!
Early exam at 830. I would be complaining, but it's much better off to get the first exam done asap, eh?
One of, if not THE, only time you'll hear this lemur say good things about a corporation's work environment, from a management perspective: being paid to attend fully catered seminars and meetings held in a hotel 5 blocks from one's home instead of running an industrial plant just frakking rocks. No two hours of commuting, no hydraulic oil, no sub-zero temperatures, no 40 km/h winds, no dirty work clothes...simply awesome. ^^
Had three hours of sleep in the afternoon, after getting home from a 2.5 hour exam from 830 to 1100 hours, and in turn after waking up at 5 in the morning.

Today I felt a raindrop hit me, and I thought to myself how it would be cool if it started hailing instead of rain, and how that would leave me so much less wet, then I thought to myself "please hail instead of rain" suddenly it started hailing! as if the clouds had heard my request it continued to hail on and off for the next hour or so!

It's strange, near here at Lougheed its stuck to the ground so much you'd think it was snowing all night. A piece whacked me in the nose a few times hard, though.

No, none of them do. I changed the brightness setting on mine to make it last longer though. This time it lasted for 6 straight hours.
My happy thing is that my sister came over and we played the Mario game for several hours. Since she forgot her wiimote and I only have one from my first gen wii (and the gamepad) I let her have the wiimote and I played (for the first time) as the 'boost' person and tried to help out with additional blocks to stand on and tried to kill enemies. It was a ton of fun. I also cooked dinner for us and it was delicious. :)
wait 'til the spices work their way through. then you might be making a complaint comment
Let's see, lots of things to be happy about:
1: Found a lovely watch for my mom. (her last one's giving her so many headaches)
2: While I'm not really supposed to be getting stuff for me, I found a mini stylus for my smartphone. (it even plugs into the headphone jack for "storage")
3: Despite today's dark clouds, it didn't actually start raining until late, which meant that I didn't need to lug around a wet umbrella while I shopped.
4: I know of a few places I can find Jones Soda, and I have a bottle clip (http://www.leevalley.com/en/gifts/page.aspx?p=63394&cat=4,104,53217&ap=5) that clips onto a belt-loop or similar, so I don't have to carry the bottle around. =^.^=

Not quite sure which thread this goes in:
Saw my second panto of the season now, so that's over for the year.
It was quite enjoyable, and I think I managed to get everybody's autographs this year.
(though I thought that the Fraser Valley Gilbert and Sullivan Society's Phantom of the Panto was a bit more enjoyable than the Royal Canadian Theatre Company's Robinson Crusoe and the Pirates this year. Maybe Ellie King's broken ankle had something to do with that)
Gotta wait until next year for the next ones.
(if I'm even still here next year. Several possible job opportunities would take me to Ontario)

It is exceptionally cute. Especially King, what with all his snarky angst and emotional breakdowns bottled up in a wee Corgi body. You cannot resist the adorableness.
I was all mopey cause I thought I'd gained 3 lbs, well I must have grossly underestimated the amount of food and liquid I had ingested recently because I just weighed myself on an empty stomach and apparently I've lost 4 lbs! (7 lbs less than I was expecting to see) :-3
I think I'm gonna go buy myself some new pants today! I was gonna wait till I had lost a bit more weight but honestly I think I can afford to get one pair :3 and besides, 2/3 of my current pairs of pants (yes I only have 3 serviceable pairs of pants >.<) just fall right off my waist if I'm not wearing a belt.

Cleaned my bedroom. Found $50.
Some guy dropped his cell phone out of his truck on the road today (was perfectly fine), returned it to him after trying to get a hold of someone on his contacts list after about a half hour or so....felt pretty good

What with my birthday and Christmas money, combined with my tax credits cheque, I splurged and bought a Logitech G600 Gaming Mouse. =^.^=
Twenty programmable buttons, baby!
Had an awesome trip up the mountain yesterday! (although omg so sore today)
Percocets from my ears busting. Oh god. So high right now. THANK YOUUUU doctorrrr.
Cleaned my house and it's soooo clean. .3. Feels good man.
I ordered a 2 cd/dvd combo online of my favorite band! Based on the shipping time i'll either be in vancouver actually seeing said band, or if my bf can't get the time off... we'll just watch the live Dvd!
I also ordered soap for us from con*tact caffiene and i'm soooo excited!!
that being said... i might be in Vancouver from Feb. 8th to the 11th! :3

Because the EA Burnaby store was closed today to check inventory, I'll be getting my game for today's playtesting session by mail.
And I just might be getting a voucher for a second game too, if the guy manages to swing it! =^.^=

After avoiding Tim Horton's regular hot chocolate for quite a while (due to a distinct lack of flavour, from several different locations), I had to get a regular one from the Tim's in Metrotown. The flavour's back, baby!
(I'd been having to make do with a white hot chocolate with a flavour shot of mint-chocolate)

I usually get their white hot chocolate instead of the regular for that reason too. I'm not sure if it's their mix or if it's the same root problem as Starbucks: massive variability in employee skill. But then I'm pretty sure they just hit a button, so maybe it's that some of the machines aren't calibrated very well...

Due to how long I'd been having that problem, I've been watching to see what goes into one.
Yes, it's just a machine they press a button on.
Sometimes the issue is merely that the bin doesn't have enough powder in it, but other times it could be due to a dirty machine.

Things to be Happy about.... Making the 17,000th Post !!!!! in the Generals Board!!!!!! :birdy:
Saw a wicked show last night! (I'm totally biased... it was my bf's band) and had a great time! I usually don't like bars or going out, but i found out everyone was really happy to see me :) it's nice to remember i have friends around... even if all they do is drink haha!
Fleetmind, my game project, has been given a greenlight, pulled out of cold storage, and resumed with double the crew!
In response to my vent/rant in the "Things to Complain About" thread about my job, the driver now doesn't work weekends anymore. :3 So he only works 5 days a week instead of 7, which will hopefully make him less stressed out and more relaxed. It also makes it a little easier on us supervisors. XD My boss told me the second she came in to work and saw my note, she took it to the front of our building (that manages the drivers and things related) and they called the driver who harassed me. Feels great to have that resolved. =w= <3
Besides that, life is going good, I've decided to make a bunch of changes slowly. Right now I'm trying to drink at least 1 glass of water a day, after this is accomplished, I'm going to go to eating at least a couple fruits and veggies a day. I've ordered a wake up light online, so that will be my next step into sorting out my sleeping habits. Then I'll try small working out in my home like running up and down stairs, pushups, ect. Then after that hopefully going to the gym with my lovebug. THEN THEN! Finding a new job. I'm keeping that last because I'm hoping everything before that will give me an energy boost and positive attitude which will make job hunting less stressful. :-3
Starting up furmeets again! :-3 Although I am in Abby, I have the determination to start up fur meets. The ones I hosted at the Pound in Surrey were always wonderful and I want to continue on.
This. Just, this.

I just weighed myself today... I broke the next 10lbs mark! I'm now officially lower than I have been in at least 5 years. I'm noticing more and more muscle definition on my body, though my belly still sticks out, I think I'm gonna need to start doing some abdominal workouts.
good to hear and keep up the good work. to reduce the belly with the least amount of effort, try walking a couple of miles a day.
Done with prerequisite readings for this week. Off to sushi I go!

My boyfriend was overweight and is kind of a spazz when it comes to anything healthy/exercise related now, but the way he lost his belly really fast was by intermittent fasting. Look it up, do some research and see if it interests you. In a short way to describe it, you pretty much don't eat from time"x" to time"y", whatever time you choose. My boyfriend went from 8pm at night till 12pm the next day since it worked best for him that way.
Also check out this guy/video: Do NOT Crunch - Vince Gironda advice for abs exercise (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zq_nM5H3bk#ws) He's really awesome and informative. ^^

I have left this place for a little bit it seems. XD But it isn't the only website I've been neglecting, been trying to do more than sitting infront of my computer. I've been following through on my plans of getting my sleeping habits in check, which my light alarm clock has been greatly helping me with. Honestly, I will never use a normal alarm clock again, it's such a nice feeling to just wake up. No abrupt alarm snapping me out of my dreams. =3= <3
I've had such peace of mind lately and everything is simply amazing, I wish I could share my happiness with others on this website but I guess this'll have to do... :3

About five years ago, I noticed that my shoulders were out of alignment, with the left one sitting higher than my right.
Today I realized that they're back in sync. =^.^=
Now, if only I could get my right shoulder to be back properly...
(it's a bit further forward than it should be right now)
This isn't really something to be happy about, just something that made me laugh. The other day I was looking at a list of phobias, and as it turns out there is a phobia of the word "yellow"

I think these have better uses. A fantasy-sized 1000 Farad supercapacitor contains 1/2(1kF)(1V)^2 = 500J of energy, whereas a cheap rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery can store as much energy as (3600 Ampseconds)(1V) = 3600J!

welcome to BC. are you going to be here for VancouFur? if you are we will see you there.
Vancoufur in a week!
I'm super stoked.
Despite starting out as a horrendously-rainy day, Friday actually cleared right up into a wonderfully sunny day, even if it was still a little cold.
Due to my summer job starting up in two weeks, I'm going to have to go for long walks at least every other day to get in shape.
Friday's walk was a minimum of fifty blocks, plus all the walking around I did in the several stores I went into.
(probably added up quite a bit, though I don't think I'd want to estimate what it added up to)
Also, due to Tim's Roll up the Rim contest, I paid for one hot chocolate, but drank three. =^.^=
(first one had a free coffee, as did the first discarded cup I picked up!)
I had a great day yesterday.
The day was gorgeous (as is today actually). My grandma sent me $300 for my 30th birthday present. I did my taxes and I am getting $1300 back. All the customers I had at work were nice. We got free wifi installed at work, 'cause Shaw is doing a thing all over town installing hotspots. And my perfume sticks from Contact Caffeine arrived in the mail.

Those machines make unnaturally awesome bread. Really heavy, though.
I'm happy that I caught the sculpting bug again and just about completed a sculpture of one of my forms over two nights. Just gotta figure out how I'm going to do the wings now. Wouldn't be able to make them out of clay.
Going back to Vancouver tomorrow. Sleep in a real bed, with a (mostly) hot shower and a less ornery cat!
Nothing wrong with bread made at home.
Y'all are just used to the fluffy crap that stores sell, because, yanno, it's cheaper for them that way... :roll:
(bread used to be that heavy)
Managed to (temporarily) ditch the built-in LCD screen my laptop uses for an external screen.
At least it doesn't have any annoying vertical coloured lines on it!

I had a pretty good (30th) birthday today! Despite the fact that I had a VI get together thread posted for a month and nobody wanted to come to it...
My boss and her Swiss baker husband made me an almond/carrot torte with cream cheese frosting and shaved hazelnuts around the outside. So tasty! Then when they left for the afternoon, all the customers I had were nice. One even (not knowing it was my birthday) gave me a bag of Ghirardelli chocolate squares. Then I got home and my sister is mostly moved in to my apartment and she got me a DQ ice cream cake (I've only had one before) and we ordered a pizza and wings for supper. My grandma also called (she sent me $300 for my birthday! holy!) and wished me a Happy Birthday.
All in all, it was a great day. :D

Due to my strong perfectionist nature, I have a hard time doing anything relating to art.
(that's why I don't have all that much stuff up in my DA and FA art galleries)
I'm slowly, very slowly, relaxing and starting to understand that I can make mistakes, and learn from them.
That's not to say that I'll suddenly start posting more stuff (because what I've been doing is so far below that level), but I will be working a bit harder on it.
Though it's going to take a lot of effort to push past the disappointment of seeing just how bad my hand is just yet...

I'm not alone?! :'D This is exactly why I rarely ever draw (even though I want to). I just get so frustrated that what I have in my head that I want to draw never comes out on paper that way or looks nearly as good.

Ditto, I find sculpting way more gratifying. The image from my mind translates better into reality than it does in 2D. I'd recommend dropping the $20 on a pound of Super Sculpey and playing with it.(Make sure you look up how to make proper armatures, I suck at this part.) Or even just $5 on some regular clay and seeing what you can make.
Though it is discouraging when it dries wrong and cracks up like my last one. Hence why I recommend Sculpey.

man I tried sculpting clay not long ago, I managed to deal with the cracks (it was a fairly big thing so smoothing them over was easy even after it dried) but I still had that same frustration that I get with drawing xD funny how many people responded saying they feel the same thing as carl though! guess this is a widespread problem :-\

Haha, maaan! That guy puts me to sleep! If I watch a video of him I just start nodding off...
And that clay idea may be interesting, I might actually try that out. :3 I've been wanting to try and make a clay furry head. Like so:

My new haircut is amazing! I don't know what I was ever thinking keeping it long like that, I look so much better with my hair like this! and the old cut was driving me crazy 12345
Despite a very poor work day today (I serviced just one lawn, and it was pre-booked), the managers I spoke with all expressed an interest in helping me get over the problems I've been having.
(that was my second day. Contrast that with my first day, with three lawns, none of which were pre-booked)
One of the other managers has said that he wants to have me under him a time or two to see what he could suggest.
The clerk who paid me for my work even waived the regular equipment rental fee because it would have cut my pay in half.
If I could only get over my problems relating to people I don't know, I might actually be good at this! =>.<=
(my skills with the aerator equipment are fine, and getting better, but if I can't make a sale, it doesn't matter how skilled I am)
Employment. Finally.

I get a week off from work after working a month and 5 days straight, yes!
Traveling from here->kelowna->alberta snowboarding all mountains!
On March 2nd, my big cat jumped out of my sisters window and ran away. He wouldn't come home and then I had to go to the hospital and couldn't call for him every night.
I put up a "lost cat" thing on Craigslist and asked the local petfinders FB page to put up his picture. Still, I had no responses for two weeks.
I just looked out the window, and he came walking out from the bushes!! I had to double check to see it wasn't the downstairs cat, but it was my boy! He sat just in view of my window and looked at me.
I jumped right up and threw some clothes over my jammies and ran outside. I called him from the side door, but he didn't come. I had to jam something in the door so it wouldn't lock behind me (as it is one without a keyhole on the outside) and went around the corner. I called again and he came running so fast, meowing like CRAZY! I scooped him up and cuddled him all the way back to the apartment. He seems to have lost some weight, but is otherwise okay.
The other cats are all growly now, even Dove, but they will get used to him.
Two weeks ago, my first rattie, Squee, broke her little 'finger' on the cage somehow. Just learned that she won't lose the digit because she is healing well, she is no longer in any pain, and will still have good use of her paw even with the slightly bent little finger! I'm so pleased, I was worried about her!
I have a better mind and life now.
My birthday party this year! It's going to be so epic! It's even on the calendar! Mew! :birdy: :-3

Found a new show called "Wonders of Life" hosted by Brian Cox, it's about the nature of nature and frequently leaves me in awe. I like to watch it before going to bed, what better way to fall asleep than with thoughts of Cox in my head? xD

I'm so fricken excited with how sunny it's been lately!!! >3< The air's nice and cold, with barely any wind and a ton of sun! Feels awesome! I think I'll go hiking tomorrow if it's still nice out tomorrow. :3
TODAY ROCKS! WOOOO sunny, warm, happy. GOOD TIMES AHEAD!
The hair for my fursuit just showed up in the mail ten days early :D *bounces around*
The moon looks gorgeous up in nothern Alberta! It's super yellow-y orange and massive tonight and is making all the snow covered trees and fields look amazing! It's super distracting because it's making me want to wander in the field... must.. not pull over! haha
Messing around with my camera making rage faces, so much fun! Also looking at old photos and comparing them to the new ones makes me feel pretty good about all the weight I lost :3 I look fucking amazing!
YO SPRING IS FINALY HERE ENJOY
Canada, and its curiousity about other cultures! Nifty Filipino snacks to sample, ready availability of unique teas to sample, and a damn-near representative sampling of major cultural-group cuisine within ten blocks of me! It makes for happy otterbellies.
Going hiking today, cannot wait! :D Looks absolutely amazing outside right now, EEEEEE~! I love how more sunlight and warmer weather just kicks the winter blues in the ass. =3=
Despite my first few days of working for Canadian Property Stars being rather lousy, my last three have averaged me making $60 a day.
I had been considering quitting and finding other work, such as the new Tim's that going in about four blocks from my house or the fabric store my mom frequents, but now I'm not so sure.
I'm still somewhat uncomfortable being a salesperson, but I have to admit that I'm making far more money this way than I ever have delivering newspapers.
I even managed to find somebody who might consider hiring me to join a couple pieces of software together.

You can make more than $60 a day working at Tim Hortons .
May 1, 2012 – $10.25 per hour. is minimum wage as of that date.
8x10.25 = $82 roughly.
Not sure if you're looking for FT/PT but you'll probably make more money at tims if you can pull 8 hour shifts.
plus the benefits that come with it (discounts on product - possible health/med if you move up)
That's something to be happy about :D
**Edit**
There's no 'salesperson' aspect to working at Timmy Hos. people want coffee and donuts/sandwiches they sell themselves on it, all you do is punch buttons and apply tongs to donuts.

That I have a job now, which gives me money to be able to have experiences like the one I had today. Stayed up all night cleaning my suite for moving out, then was biking one of the last boxes to storage. On the way there, I was stopped by a somewhat distraught-seeming man who opened the conversation with "Normally you wouldn't see a Chinese person asking, but I really need help". He explained that his car was out of gas, and he had no money at the time.
I figured what the heck, I could afford to help him out. If he never paid it back, it's no big deal. While we were walking to an atm, he talked at length at how surprised he was that he had stopped a Chinese person before me, who would not help him. He said, while trying to cover up the racial bias, that he'd feel more compelled to help a fellow Asian person if they asked for it. I said that I didn't think it should matter what race someone was, because that person needs help regardless of what race they are.
So even if I never see that money again, I hope at least I taught someone a valuable lesson about being human on this planet :) a good start to the next section of my life, haha.
Yesterday I've done nothing but reorganize my room, and I'm pleased with the end result. I have a hell of a lot more room now than I did yesterday. The part that makes me sad is I've decided to get rid of my bass guitars. I haven't been playing, and as of now they're just cluttering up my room.

A great big box of sushi as a thank-you from the manager, and discovering that my boss is something of a gamer and technophile. This is shiny.

Spring, finally! This past winter felt longer than usual and I've never been so happy to see the snow gone and be out in pleasant temperatures. :)
Tasty homemade soup. Aside from a minor error (Turns out potato starch is not like tapioca starch in that you cannot add it to a hot liquid as a thickener; You get soup dumplings, not thickened liquid), it's an excellent, if slightly bastardized shchi.
Recovering from a long cold. At least since nov.
Grandparents just left after visiting for almost 2 days...(yesterday being my birthday so couldnt party that night either) My grandma decided to randomly clean my entire house and sort through all my stuff (thank god i hid my bong well) and getting many bible scriptures and verses preached to me throughout the day by my grandfather (both of them are Baptists..) my house is silent once again.. and clean.. almost too clean o.o

I am liking it... especially because now I can actually get my photos off of it (I couldn't on my last phone) and I can make my own ringtones. I totally have the X-Men theme song as my incoming ringer. XDDD

Had the most amazing day ever yesterday. I went to fan expo and got to meet Robin Dunne along with Amanda Tapping who complemented on my eyes. Then later in the evening I hung out with some old friends and tried fire breathing and didn't set myself on fire. Overall best day I've had in a while.
Hot sauce that isn't a lie! It's made with scotch bonnets, is an interesting shade of banana yellow, is almost jamlike in consistency, and made my nose tingle just opening it. A little appleseed-sized dollop was tasted, and two glasses of milk later, my tongue's still prickling. Yes! Mainstream-store-buyable hotsauce that is actually slightly above my current goalposts for spice tolerance! I need to try this stuff on barbecued pork <3
I'm happy I have a pretty kickass job where I can eat pizza and drink coke in my office without anyone caring. Also the sun deserves a mention today. :D
Sometime this week I'll be floor loading hundred pounds boxes into a container. *rubs hands* I can't wait, and hopefully I can still lift 'em with ease. It's been a while since I had to lift such heavy boxes of dead fish.

Mmmm pomegranate is tasty (and the POM juice too of course). Dragonfruit is kinda mild and apple-y... but add it to strawberry yogurt and pineapple in a smoothie... and omg.

Finally being old enough to vote!

Finally being old enough to vote!
now that you are old enough to do so, make sure that you do. you do not have to vote for someone, or a party, because you can always spoil your ballot by making two marks or drawing a line through them all. by doing so you have exercised your right to vote but shown your displeasure with the candidates.
the main thing is that you get out to do your duty and vote.
From what I've been hearing, I'm happy to know I didn't attend Furlandia.
FatBurger and beach time
Exercising my right to vote. I may now officially bitch about politics for the duration of the elected government's term, either because I helped elevate a group of shysters to office, or because I didn't vote for the shysters in office. And yes, all choices are terrible. Some marginally less terrible than others; I suppose it's like picking the variety of manure you think will be best for the mushrooms. Better to pick than not at all.

Another thing to be happy about: still warm banana bread
thank you Selkit.
You're welcome, Tokar. Respect is something that needs to make the rounds more frequently.
A very tasty homemade soup in progress. ADD ALL THE VEGETABLES!

A very tasty homemade soup in progress. ADD ALL THE VEGETABLES!
are you making 'mustgo' soup? everything in the fridge that 'mustgo' before it goes bad?
: tokar May 22, 2013, 12:00:13 -06:00
are you making 'mustgo' soup? everything in the fridge that 'mustgo' before it goes bad?
Vegetables in my house do not get a chance to do that. Most of what went into this soup was bought explicitly for said soup. Oh, and if anyone wants a recipe, here's what I can reconstruct! No, I do not generally use recipes, I tend to freeform my meals.
- Half a head of purple cabbage, finely minced
- Three or four reasonable-sized beets, fine-diced
- Two parsnips, finely diced
- Three or four larger carrots, chopped in manageable bits
- One leek, minced
- One bulb of garlic, coarsely chopped
- Half a dozen potatoes, diced
- Half a dozen bay leaves
- Either a teaspoon of garlic powder or another bulb of garlic, crushed to paste. I prefer the garlic paste!
- Half a teaspoon of ground black pepper. Grind it fresh, damnit! For extra pathos, if you don't mind the occasional pleasantly spicy morsel, drop a few in whole!
- Two tablespoons of minced chives, or if you must, dried chives
- A teaspoon of onion powder.
- A decently large can of tomato paste. Not one of the stupid little pizza-size cans you're probably familiar with.
- Sufficient beef or vegetable stock for at least four liters of water. Do this to taste. If the stock tastes like dish water, then it's too weak. Add more base if you have to add more water!
Very generously butter a large roasting pan, and load the roaster up with the potatoes, parsnips, carrots, beets, leek and chopped garlic. Dollop more butter on top of that. Lots more. You cannot possibly use enough butter. Give this about twenty to thirty minutes in the oven at 350; stir it around halfway through. You're aiming for very light browning. While you're doing that, bring the soup base up to temperature, and add the bay leaves, chives, pepper, onion powder, tomato paste and garlic paste/powder. Stir those in, add the cabbage, and once the rest of the vegetables are done roasting, schlomp that into the pot too. It's done when it's tender. And it's probably going to drive you batty with the smell while it cooks. I've bloated myself on two bowlfuls so far, and still want more.

don't get so excited that you fall off. the fall isn't the problem, it is the landing that hurts. wear your safety harness, and listen to your foreman. and don't forget to scuff up your safety boots so they don't think you are such a newbie.
good luck

Trust me, it already does, fiercely. Not much I can do about that. I remember that less than fondly from when I had my shoulder reconstructed. Sucked. But trivial compared to the pain.
Made it down to the coast, just in time for the rain. heh.
I took a shower not too long ago, and I hit the sweet spot with the water temperature. It was awesome!
Happy for having met a bunch of new, fun people at sushi night. It was a great evening!
A very loyal Loial. That otter has been such a help in this time of need! Otters unite! Dictated my borscht recipe to him yesterday, and walked through making it, with him, while in turn I act as somewhat of a business adjutant/prod, for his printer ventures. He likened it to Master/Blaster, which makes the geek in me squee! <3 otts!
Going on an all day hike tomorrow in Squamish with a friend! can't wait
Absolutely wonderful vacation, surrounded by some splendid company. I am very thankful for the wonderful furs in my life. <3
The Disney Store is coming to Guildford Town Center!
Met a bunch of furs at the Vancouver Maker Faire today. A definite bonus to the already awe-inspiring stuff that folks have came up with in addition to the 3D Printer crafts. Keep up the great work.
Not having to pop painmeds first thing upon waking. Wish me luck, I see the ortho surgeon today, to figure out the next step.

Mechjeb.
If you have no idea what I'm referencing, go grab Kerbal Space Program. I can't fly worth a damn onehanded, and Mechjeb allows me to pass some of the orbital maneuvering workload off to the computer. Also, there's the small detail that I don't need orthosurgery. I guess that's positive.
I got my hair cut today and it feels so awesome. I can't stop touching the back of my head. I used to have long hair so this is a long time coming. And I'm so happy my mate likes it :) And this past few weeks have been so wonderful because the lady next door to me, who shares a deck with me.. she is babysitting her dad's two kittens! So EVERY morning I have my coffee .. with kittens ! I loves them and I will miss them when they go to their real home >.< One is grey and white. named Grasshopper. and the other is just black.. and has no name. I love the black one cuz every single time I pick em up its all instapurr.

I've got mobility back in my right arm, to a degree! Still no strength whatsoever in it, but I can handle small objects, lift it above my head and twist the wrist, if not yet through the elbow's range of motion. Still have to be ultra-careful with it, the bone has not fully knit yet, but yeah. A good testament to how quickly I tend to heal.

i have a set of wrist weights (1.5) lbs you can borrow if you want to exercise the arm. i know it isn't much but for healing they should be helpful.

Sorry to be spamming the happy-thread, but I'm pleased that I've been named as the art director/producer of Improv Entertainment. It's a new games-startup, and we'll be releasing our first small mobile game soon. Baby steps, then bigger measures!

It was meant sort of sarcastically. Barely cost me anything anyhow, it's just more of a fun car.
Got introduced to a real game of Magic earlier this evening for the first time. It was a bit of a struggling attempt on my part, but it was definitely quite the experience.
The smell of laundry straight out of the dryer is heaven to my nostrils. I swear the bounce commercials where the people sniff their shirts are true.
Went up Burnaby mountain tonight! It was amazing, all the city lights and stars and white clouds.. Then I drove along back country roads in langley/Abbotsford along the river and watched the moon rise over the river, Breathtaking really!

Brilliant view, right? I've hiked from the east side base through the dark trails up numerous times, and there are small clearings for views to see Port Moody, bits of Coquitlam near me and North Van (Power line / Trans-can trails) of course leading to the epic viewpoint new the Horizon's restaurant.
Some times of the year when it is near sunset, there will be clouds near the coastal mountains casting sun rays down in to North Van, and all sorts of interesting atmospheres.

My Happiness: I have today fully stripped my road bike's poor paint job from the previous owner, and put a base coat of black on it. After it dries for 48 hours, I will be putting many...Well, I'll leave it as a surprise :-3

Mood potion. Autistic brains like mine, have somewhat odd chemistry; I've found that to instantly fire up a little energy, a tall glass of milk with a bit of brown sugar, a good dose of dissolved-in matcha (l-theanine, people!), a bit of folate and B12, and some extracted caffeine works wonders. Better living through chemistry. It doesn't fix the depression, but it certainly treats the symptoms.

I have a job. :D
Had an AWESOME time at my latest camping trip, on the way back I met a cute girl on the bus and got her number, then as if that wasn't enough to make me feel great I weighed myself when I got home and it looks like I lost a bunch more weight on the trip! :-3 riding pretty high right now.
There's going to be lots of sun and music for me this weekend up in Princeton at their folk fest! And that's something I'm VERY happy about :3
First week of my new job went rather well, I feel like I am kinda putting on an old hat that fits just perfect and feels so familiar. I was fortunate enough to get into small IT work again, something I had wanted to get back into for a good few years! ^.=.^
I was honored with an invitation to Scott and Alysha's wedding this past weekend, I had a great deal of fun bartending, and broadened my social horizons. I met Loial's family, and found them to my liking, then I came home, and settled into productive artwork. These have been good days, and I hope there are more to come.

thunder and lightning show outside my window
yuhs we was enjoying that to And just got in in time as well from a good drink in Storm crow
It's been about a month of working on sewing machines, and I enjoy it rather well, save for the times I get stumped by tricky machines I haven't dealt with yet.
Despite the low pay ($12/hour), it sure as heck feels like a lot of money... =^.^=
Edit:
Oh yeah! I almost forgot:
I'm going to be in a pantomime this Christmas! =^.^=
More details as I find out!
My little pony, :birdy: <--- This fantastic piece of art, and... Feeding ducks. Definitely feeding ducks
Breaking Bad and video games. (GTA V.)
My school goes all year round which means I was in school during everyone else's summer vacation. Now that everyone is going back to school it makes me a lot happier to continue going to school myself.
Finally getting my sewing machine tuned up! Been afraid to use it for a while now, it's gummed up with old, dry grease. Thankfully it's a tank and has held up to the neglect.
That this did not happen; otherwise all our lives would be quite different.

Maple. Bacon. Rum.
Hmm, rather quiet over here.
I'm going to be in a panto come December!
As part of the chorus.
It's going to be loads of fun! =^.^=
SO GLAD TO BE BACK AT WORK WITH ALL MY SEXY GOUHLS, DEMONS AND PSYCHOS!! :D (LITERALLY!!! XD)
A great big pot of homemade crab and kelp soup. <3
...Yes, I know, I'm an ottdurr.
Seeming as this thread is -very- far under the "Things to complain about thread" figured i would change that.
So the good news for me is theres a costume competition at my work every Halloween, and for everyone that dresses up our boss buys us dinner at the pub and theres the possibility of winning $100 top prize. I got the thumbs up from our head boss that i can wear my fursuit at work for this contest, whilst being paid, also getting free dinner because of it, Aaaaaand hopefully $100 bucks... but that would just be a bonus.
Dont think the customers will expect to run into a 6 foot tall raver fennec whilst grocery shopping. this should be interesting to say the least.
A bit of a promotion and moving to days, which means I'll just have to chill for an hour or so after my shift, then saunter around the corner and join y'all for snushi!
Sushi, great place to go and be to in addition to a promotion.
What also counts is having a den you look forward coming home to in the evening. Heck, even wanting to stay in it the entire day!
Reading and having a nice nap, that makes me happy.
Found my way back into the furry world after a little hiatus. Very pleased to see you all again. I'm chasing greymuzzle territory around here. O0
Welcome back, glad to have you back after you enjoyed change of scenery.
It has been raining all day long, which is something you get to miss around here. Glad to have such a decent climate, at least we don't have heat waves or ice storms on a weekly basis *pokes the Professor*. Plus October was gorgeous (http://www.theprovince.com/cms/binary/9055327.jpg).
Heading to a potluck.
hey hey hey.... watch that wereman, all cold water (any most liquids) have ice in then, or had at one time or other.
happy for new sci-fi props projects inc. laser gun
Getting my fursuit.
Working full time
Buying myself a car with 2 15's.
I am happy about the progress I'm making with my new scarf!
I'm happy BC is finally getting some serious winter weather. Too bad the cold doesn't seem to be mixing with any snow. Joy aside, be safe out there furs. Windchill is a deadly foe. Wear a big hat. :vik:
The snowfall before Christmas was nominal to the Polar drift that wandered into most of the North American Continent past week. Midwest was affected by it the most.
Recently it came to mind to be fortunate (as far as I am aware of) none of us suffer of major illnesses or ailment such as skin thickening (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephantiasis), skin hardening (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harlequin-type_ichthyosis), Excessive overweight (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/18/mayra-rosales_n_4298037.html#slide=more253123), or Tree man disease (http://metro.co.uk/2008/12/19/tree-mans-branches-grow-back-262608/).
At least once in a while when we look into the mirror.

February 09, 1964: The Day The Revolution Began!
People at school not minding my furry-like nature at all ^-^ and everyone wants to come and touch and rub my tail all the time whenever they see it! ;D
Tomorrow is the last day of working at an emotionally toxic and physically damaging job that has ruled the last seven years of my life!!
Tuesday is the first day of my new job, in a much less physically demanding position, with a higher class of coworker and a more professional attitude from all!!!
WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW HAPPY I AM RIGHT NOW!!

This is the thing to be happy about.
I missed your post Ruby, but a HUGE congrats!
I came in to post a similar thing...
We got laid off our huge paying job, so we're currently out of work.
Which.. sounds like bad news, but..
..it means that I can get a new job and go to work instead of Jux going, and we get to spend WAY more time together because I can be home every evening! Also I love change, so a new job is like the most exciting thing. Probably going to relocate.. so hopefully we'll get to see all you dudes before we go at least a few times before we ship off to another part of the country. (If we do.)
So I guess that part's not great news because I love you all so much. But the rest is great. :) Uncertainty and chaos leading to major life changes is my favorite thing. .. (Which probably makes me at least a little strange..)
On the way home, I got off the bus and saw this old guy down the street running and waving. So I ran to the front of the bus, waving. I put a foot up onto the door way and looked at the bus driver really confused. After some "ahhs" and "ums" and more incoherently jibbering and looking at my phone. I turned and the old guy is still running towards us. The bus driver is starting to look a little annoyed and I could do nothing but shrug and a crooked smile. I looked at my phone and tried more jibbering but couldn't think of anything to actually say so it didn't make sense but eventually the old guy got to the door, I backed off, we bro-hoofed, him with a big smile on his face. Made me feel good about myself to help a fellow citizen.
