Psudodrake is helping me out on this. I'm in no proper mindset to do it myself at this point.

Yes, I know... the math makes absolutely no sense. But I was after a BluRay player, and it's kinda hard to beat the PS3,.... and frankly I needed something to get my morale up after work (not directly) started to raise my stress levels to red lines....

Hey, it was something to look forward to <.< >.>

Hopefully Microsoft won't disown me.... (I AM installing Windows 7 on bootcamp at least <.<

* Taxes are finally done
* Reading more about ColdFusion and ColdBox for work
* KITTENS! (Pictures coming soon)
* Canonizing the Snow Dracocheetah and making it MUCH bigger <.< (How much bigger I don't know yet ^^)
* Comic idea based off previous post
* Needing to huggle friends more O-o

Fun Remembering:

* The first view outside the plane when arriving in Washington DC after landing a job out of Florida.
* Eating the first "Iridium-Told-You-So" Mk1 burger at Five Guys in DC. (The "Iridium-Told-You-So" Mk2 burger was purchased today with double jalapenos and hot sauce ^^)

Things that are annoying:

* Too much "Mac vs Windows vs Linux" garbage both in work and off work. Windows is broken into a LOT and has a lot of viruses, but if Mac or Linux was the market leader, that OS would be most "broken". (ie, as soon as the market share rises, the OS in question WILL be exploited more, much as the iPhone is)

There's this week's look into a dracocheetah mind. ^^

Anyway, the place is setup... all the services are connected. I finally have food.... it's time to relax and look forward to getting out to see friends, family (mom comes up this Friday), and finally get around to reading Psudodrake's story so I can see just what Kirii and Iridium have been torturing me about.

Either way, the Snow Dracocheetah has arrived. And already happier then I had been in Florida.

All my bags are packed up, I'm ready to go. But I'm not leaving on a jet plane.

Leaving for my new place in Washington DC either tomorrow (Tuesday) or Wednesday.

Few up from PBIA at 3:40 and arrived in DC 20 minutes ahead of schedule thanks to a nice tailwind. My economy car turned out to be a free upgrade to a Toyota Prius. Problem is that now I want one even more (even if it did take me a good 10 minutes to figure out how to get the "Brake" light to turn off to get the car moving. Finally met up with Iridium for a quick dinner before retiring for the night.

Today was a reletively eventful and full day of looking for places and evaluating housing options. Lunch was a quick trips to the Five Guys burger restaurant where Iridium LET me get jalepeno peppers on my burger. Turned out they were FRESH and about as hot as any habenero or scotch bonnet pepper I've had... so if the eastern seaboard gets scorched... uh... I blame the wolfess. *points at Iridium with a wing*

Thats it for the first update. Three days to go to solidify something. There's definately a lot to think about. O_o

On the bright side.... the new snow dracat form has definately come in handy. We'll see how I handle it when I go outside after sundown when the wind picks up ^.^

PETA has officially turned from a rather noble organization seeking not to inflict UNNECESSARY PAIN on animals to something that wants us to stop doing anything with them. I'm sure in some way we can't understand, plants feel pain too...

Anyway, my response, taken strait from Futurama...

Second, I know I asked for some community help in my last post. I've taken the advice and will soon make an announcement on the results. However, this will not stop me from persuing that story O_O.

In other news...

* I finished a phone screening for a job in DC, here's hoping it turns into an interview... then an inperson...
* After 3 weeks I FINALLY got around to installing my second hard disk drive.
* Left4Dead demo launches on the 11th.
* The bowflex revolution is REALLY easy to fix surprisingly.
* Dracats need to get bigger...

Now on the job side... I'm hopefully going to follow up on one job, specifically the one Brenna originally filled me in on.... Then theres two others (one with a staffing firm and one with a direct defense contractor), all three which will get me up to DC. So as always, if there's any suggestions, keep throwing them out (connections are even better ^^).

Finally, the fabled Question for the Community... DocWolph recently did a GREAT re-rendition of my character helping to give me a more 'mature' look. The thing is, I'm getting comments on why I 'shrunk', 'weakened', 'What-have-you'. Despite that I'm no smaller, and am actually larger, it just LOOKS smaller (probably from being less 'ripped'. So, what are some suggestions to actually make the new mature look... well... LOOK bigger then it had been? (Picture in question being [link] )

That's all for this one.

Beyond that, yea.... I've been in a SLOWLY improving mood I guess, despite lacking good news on my job hunts. It might be time to give myself a well deserved canon 'upgrade'. Might have to ask my mate, family and friends for inspiration on that one.

And finally, current updates:

* It's been yet another week, and thus far I'm still holding myself up well enough. The trick thus far has been for me to just pretend that I'm gonna be stuck there indefinately, the advantage to that is while at work I don't loose my mind, but it usually involves a nice crash after work. Thankfully, at least it's a job I can somewhat enjoy doing.

* In regards to the job hunt, I'm slowly starting out a hunt in the DC area. I'm going to start posting resumes to.... well, just about anything I can find.

* Dracat is still awaiting Jumpgate Evolution.... but in the meantime... DeadSpace is definately a winner in my book over Silent Hill.... Fable 2 and Guitar Hero World Tour are coming out.... FarCry 2 is still in the option.

I have ideas I'd like to make Canon for my fursona but just can't act on with 50+ hour effective workweeks. :/

For a LONG while, I've always thought it was my job, or more precisely, lack-there-of that was causing the mood. But being gainfully employed in a good job for a quarter of a year now, I'm still in this mood, running damage control to mitigate inefficiencies that might creep into my job from this funk. In that respect, I've succeeded in not loosing productivity, but co-workers and my manager can tell something's up.

Truth of the matter....

Let me start again, TRUTHS of the matter are the following:

1) I REALLY need to relocate and get a change of scenery. I'm tired of perpetual summer. I'm tired of watching the tropics every year and waiting to get hit. I have fond memories of vacations to Washington DC, and my drive to get a government / defense job there is just making it seem like the ideal place to be. There's St. Louis because of the mid-west atmosphere and a big cougar sis.... Texas because of the IT atmosphere, a mate, and the fact everything's bigger there <.< >.>.... and, we'll, that's it.

2) I find I tend to put others in front of myself, then end up getting burned heavily when my hopes are up (or at least more cheerful then they have been). It's just my nature and I'll never grow out of this. I'm not going to bring up the details so I can avoid drama, but I know there are friends that are aware of said issues.

I'll try to open up, but as I've been suggested IRL by my ONE close friend here.... keeping everyone in the dark doesn't help anyone, including myself.

- Primarily A VERY large (in size and build) herm cheetah, more akin in body structure to a leopard with a tail-spade, two horns, and two massive wings from hir dragon side which MAY be going into a 'King Cheetah pattern as below. Originally concepted with the assistance of Wyldsyde, Gideon, and others, made canon in RP/story terms by Iridium.

- Secondarily, the same specimen 'Weaponized' by Psudodrake.

- Is at the moment running a race to NOT go completely depressive due to the college system teaching out of date information in the decrepid US education system. Henceforth, self studying and attending certification courses to remedy this.

- Is not EXACTLY the most friendly and open fur anymore because of above point even if shi wants to be.

- Has super-close friends shi wants to talk to and be with but can't because of hir mood, which is further lowered by local friends (Online friends ARE Real Life friends to hir) having little to no connection with hir.

- Is looking forward to a few last conceptual pics of hirself, hopeful to get in touch with one of the artists.

- Is ALSO looking forward to a few 'tieing-up-loose-end' stories.

- Misses RPing a lot, but can't bring hirself to try to RP in said condition.

- REALLY wants a programming job outside of *censored* South Florida, ideally with a governmental organization and will do just about anything legally to get it. (In progress)

- Is very very likely going to have to sacrifice Anthrocon for one more year, much to hir dismay of giving a hug to some people shi's wanted to hug for a long while...

- Has to get up the nerve of just sucking up the bad mood and talking to hir mate again <.<.

- Is trying to remember what's REALLY important...

- Has gone on an FPS binge to releave frustrations (COD4, Crysis, Frontlines, Rainbow 6 Vegas).

- Cannot wait for Age of Conan and Jumpgate Evolution.

- Is GOING to start working out more...

- Has a Birthday coming up on the 10th of May, hir goal to solidify hir skills and show some organization what shi can do.

- Will snug and smish everyone super tightly the minute shi's out of this mood (sometimes it pays to be a buff-'n-busty dracocheetah.
