Jungle Juice, Buns, and Bacon Rape

May. 30th, 2010 | 05:09 pm
mood: drained drained

So last night was my first (of age) drinking party AND my first Fur Den party (that I stayed at longer than 30min). And yes, yes I did drink =n.n=
I got just a bit more than buzzed, and was pleased that my common-sense had stayed intact. Not that I really needed to worry. The host of the party along with a few other awesome people were doing a good job monitoring everybody's alcohol intake, though I suppose the webcams did help the host monitor things.
It was a fun safe environment and I had some awesome buddies. I started the night with a fellow fennec, we shared drinks from the same cup. This way I would know better what she would need and when. Though she did wander off a few times and I think she had a few more drinks than me, otherwise she is a lightweight. =O.o=
She and I were cut off from the alcohol and had buns and water the rest of the evening. It was at this point when we were sitting down talking that a small spurt of drama reared its ugly head. Sadly the drama involved me getting hit it the head, it wasn't hard really and it was just a glancing blow but that was enough, the strike landed on my temple and sent my jaw and sinuses into overdrive. Also it gave me a headache. I know the headache wasn't from the drinking because at that time I was still all warm and fuzzy and having a very good time. But after the drama left my head hurt, my nose dripped the rest of the night and my jaw is still hurting.
There were small spurts of drama here and there throughout the night, but from what I could tell the drama that hit me was the most dramatic of the evening, also the most offensive.

I had tons of fun chats all over the place, I can't remember them all not because I can't remember, but because there were so many in such a short time and they were all pretty random and kind of jumped all over the place. Met lots of new people, hope to meet them again. I had so much fun.

People started to leave, and my fennec buddy disappeared into the pantry with a certain someone. So I chilled with my bunny buddy, we inadvertently started a pile, which grew to be too much for us so we chose to move away while we could. From there things settled down and chitchatting and cuddling and even a bit of sleeping happened. By this point I couldn't breath for anything through my nose and it was dripping, my eyes were watering and I was starting to feel a bit miserable.
I cuddled up with my bunny buddy and managed to nap off and on until the sun was up and any hope of sleep was shot. People started to crawl back to seats and chatting picked up again, soon turning into whines of hunger.

We booted my fellow fennec and her someone-other out of the pantry so breakfast could be made. And so it was, bacon rape. The phrase of the day. We even learned how to say it in sign language. We ate eggs, bacon, spam and pancakes and drank whatever. Us fennecs had milk.

And so my night of awesome came to an end, I had to be home by 10 to babysit my nephews who are staying with me for the summer, maybe.

Again its been awhile.

Getting so irritated with my boss person. She is denying me work. My sales are up and she is only giving me one day a week, Wednesday, the worst day for sales!
Pretty sure she is trying to make me quit. Her excuse for not scheduling me more despite my sales being up is because I am not "perky" enough. Her reason makes no sense to me or any of my co-workers. Sales are what matter, not how perky I am!

Uhg. Pissing me off. Not only is Wednesday the worst day for sales, but its also one of the few days that I could go do something. Not that I have the money to go do anything anyway. I really need a new job, but it seems pointless to try.

I never stopped looking and filling out applications, and guess what, nothing. I never get a response, other than, "you aren't what we're looking for" or "you don't have enough experience". Bullshit. That's what it is. I like the job I have well enough, I would like it better if I were actually WORKING though. The customers seem to like me well enough, my co-workers keep asking where I am since I am only working one day a week.

Maybe I should take advantage of it and do commissions or something? I don't know. I just need more money and something productive to fill my time. Sitting around watching movies doesn't exactly make me feel accomplished. =u.u=

As it stands, I don't feel like I deserve anything. I am not doing anything so why should I allow myself to be happy. Being happy for doing a whole lot of nothing is not okay!

I need something...

And, NO! I am not going to work on a damn book. I hate the idea that if I publish my stories there is a chance of fan-fiction, cos-players and so on defiling my world!

So much has been going on lately.

Finally I will be getting a job, yay me. Have to go do drug test stuffs tomorrow, lots of fluids =x.x=

Oh, and I got an appartment. Its nice enough. Like three days after getting it though my granpa died, which of course meant lots of people stayed here. Been almost a week now and I am STILL trying to get the place clean...little children are so filthy. =>.>=

Dr got me a turtle about a month ago, we named her Loreli, because she has a smiling skull on her belly. Loreli is a very noisy little thing, and she swims a lot. =n.n=

I've, officially, started working on my fursuit. Still need to get some important things so I can really get rolling on the project...doesn't help that I keep wanting to make Loli dresses and stuff instead, because its so much easier.

Recently, I started going through my wardrobe. So much stuff doesn't fit me anymore =;~;=
But this is a good thing, my body is starting to make some noticable changes, yay muscle mass. I do find myself sad about my slacks though...

Bought myself a compression shirt last month, I love it! It has made things so much easier, really need to wash it though, its starting to get loose. Now that I am going to have a job I am SO getting myself another one, or two.

I think that's about it for now...hopefully I'll get better at making entries again. I am so much happier when I unload here. =u.u=

mood: grateful grateful

Yeah, so after today I am very grateful to be a Furry first and a Lolita second...and now not at all. I shall never again refer to myself as "Lolita", I simply enjoy pretty dresses and nice clothes, which is true and was what drew me to the fashion in the first place and then the communities, because it meant there were people I had something in common with, but if clothing is all I have in common with Lolitas, than clearly I am not one...

So, since I've been tossing the idea around for so long I finally decided to go ahead and make a "Furry Lolita" community...silly me went and posted it on EGL where, I've had issues posting before...like really, why do I try to associate myself with these people? They're so rude!
My post wasn't even up 5minutes before all hell broke loose...UHG! Either way I got to have some fun...reminded me of the good old days on NeoPets, when my friends and I would gang up on a basher and ice them...ahh, when things were simple.
But NOW, gawd, I hate how hard it is to make friends online anymore, and people respond so quickly...DAMN YOU FAST CONNECTIONS!!! So now I am waiting for my "abuse request" to go through, have my little number and everything to track it...WTF do I need to track my complaint for! Whatever happened to servers that could do things automatically...gar.

So yeah if yer wondering what I am rambling on about, I made a community today, and odds are if you are reading my journal and give a care you might actually like to join...
http://community.livejournal.com/furrylolitas/profile

Anyway, before all that BS went down...I was having a pretty good day! =n.n=

I've decided to make a fursuit, though I may still just get it commissioned. It kind of all depends on if I can get my act together and actually draw up some decent concept art for what I want...

Well, its about time for D&D, so bye bye until next time!

Atomic Failure, and Pie

So it's been awhile again...

I got a new place to stay, its pretty nice. Bug is enjoying it, which is good.

Been busy doing nothing, well except filling out online applications trying to get a job, which is full of fail. What is with craigslist? Have to have like jump through hoops now just to make a babysitting post!

Anyway, the point of today's entry is, well, failure...

Today there was this..."thing" at a local comic shop (Atomic Comic), anyway, Dr being the awesome guy he is decided to drag me to it since some of the local lolis were planning to be there...along with a lot of cosplayers.
He came over between 9 and 10 this morning and I set to dressing us...and undressing =^ ~= ...it was probably the best part of the day, sadly.
We finally decided we should head out and get some food into my belly at about 2, so we dropped by Wendy's and got some burgers and a frosty before we headed to the Comic shop thing...what a mistake.
It was a disorganized mess! There weren't really THAT many people there but it still felt extremely cramped and crowded...maybe it was all the scary little cosplayer children that kept popping up everywhere trying to talk to me/us.
Some people took pictures, I need to just start saying "NO" when they ask. "No", because I am not in costume, because I dress like this everyday within reason. And "No" because nobody should give away bits of their soul to just anyone...
After a few minutes of milling around in the havoc Dr and I decided to take a breather and take a little walk down to one of the other stores in the complex (Bookman's), once done there we headed back to the comic shop thing, again, mistake!
The little Lolita/BJD event thing had started...I say "thing" because they called it both a "tea party" and a "picnic", when in fact it was niether, it was simply a gathering of people in "fluffy dresses" with expensive dolls with a table full of cookies and soda.
Dr convinced me to linger a little while, and then I convinced him to leave! ...he didn't really argue. So we left, happily, and went and got a cherry pie to cheer us up.
We returned to my place and washed up, then took a nap. He left at about 7:30, having woken up and left in a flurry of redonning clothing, words of D&D, hugs and kisses...I went back to sleep after he left, figuring I could sleep and be awake for D&D tonight.
I have been up since roughly 10:30, it is now roughly 11:30 and Dr has not been on at all, and is still not on...he hasn't called either. Needless to say I am a bit concerned...he was still a bit tired when he left and it's been raining like all day. I want to call and find out what's up, but what if he's just sleeping? Or is just doing stuff for him mom, she likes making him do LOTS of extra farm work after a day spent with me...maybe somebody THERE had an accident with one of the sheep or something?
YAY! He just popped on...I dun have to call! =n.n= And all but now being very exhuasted and having short hair now (ick, how much shorter could it be!?)...Dr is fine. And this means its time for D&D, so I gotta wrap this up.

Aside from the copius amounts of cuddling, the napping and the pie, today was a failure...

OH, and for those of you reading this that might be wondering how the Ren. Fair went...it was a total failure as well. Needed to have gone with a large group, maybe next year...

Well, until next time! *sets out cookies and mountain dew*

Okay, so I've been busy and lazy for the past...how long has it been since my last entry? *thoughtful look*
Well, whenever it was...some fun stuff has happened along with some really not so fun stuff, since then.

First off, Dr and I are going to the Renaissance Festival tomorrow! =^ ^=
Though we are both kind of worried about it being a total let down and a waste time and 40$...but we are going to try having a good time! Sounds like one of his sisters is coming with us, we were trying to make it a group thing, but people sadly are lacking the chink to go with us...
=- -=

Today I am spending some time trying to decide on my outfit for tomorrow...since I have to get up and be ready to go by like 8am!
Here are three outfits I have put together...maybe I'll roll a die to decide?




Oh! And another big fun thing that happened recently...Dr and I started an online D&D campaign with some of my online friends! =^ ^= Its going really well, though we are talking about inviting more people just to make it so we have more stuff going on and more options for what to do.
So, if you are reading this and might be interested in joining us for some D&D, even if you can only commit to a session now and then, go ahead and say something. The campaign we're running is for beginners, so you don't have to have any real experience, just an interest in trying it out.

Well...I can't think of much more to go on about at the moment, so I shall bid my farewells until next time! =n.n=

A perfect weekend...

mood: sleepy sleepy

I would have made an entry sooner, but my wireless adapter decided to just randomly die last week... =x.x=

Anyway, this past weekend was awesome!

Starting... Thursday, I believe, Dr and I spent the day going to thrift and antique stores, getting the final touches for his outfit for Saturday. It was lots of fun, despite getting shocked everytime I closed the car door (stupid courdaroy pants) =>.<;= He fed me some yummy food, OH and I finally got to meet his family! =^ ^= They were all really nice, and they fed me more yummy food!
Sadly though the day came to an end, but no fear, Dr came over on Friday too, so we could make sure our outfits were all in order for Saturday...and also to go swimming! =^ ^= It was a good time, though he didn't get to stay for long... But it was my mom's birthday so I got to go out to eat! We went to a Chinese Buffet and I stuffed myself silly...

Then, it was Saturday! =^ ^= We actually got to leave earlier than planned, not that it did much good, took forever and a day to find parking... =x.x= So, we got parked and headed to Matsuri...
It was...interesting. Saw a bunch of Lolis (and scary cosplayers) but it didn't seem like they were forming any group so I didn't bother talking to any of them, besides, I was a little pertrified due to the grossly underestimated abundance of cosplayers... =>.<;= Don't think I have ever clutched any of my teddy bears so tight before!

For those AZ Lolis who are reading this, yes I was there, and I was a little hard not to notice (or so I think)... I was the only person there with black lipstick on. No, I wasn't wearing a dress or a suit. I had decided to wear Ouji style, and dressed Dr in Kodona (he looked very smart in my top hat), also we were showing our "Furry Pride" and were wearing fox tails. Oh, yes and I had a checkered mini backpack and was carrying Chu with me =^ ^= he is such a cute teddy bear...

Anyway, as I often do, I got hungry... =o.o= So Dr fed me, got me two meat buns, they were very yummy! =^ ^= We actually didn't hang around for too long, watched the Cosplay Contest... I was like frozen in terror the whole time, but Dr let me sit halfway in his lap =n.n=
Once that was over we stood in the terribly long line for the ATM, such fun =X.x;= And then, we got me a paper-umbrella/parasol, its purple and goes so cute with my cream dress! From there we headed to the car, where we cuddled for a very long time, trying to decide where to go for dinner...

In the end we decided to go to Organ Stop Pizza! =^ ^= Lots of fun, and I ate like over half the pizza myself, plus I got a sundae =x.x= I feel like such a pig sometimes... After stuffing myself I went home and crashed like a brick through a vat of whipped cream...

*inhales deeply*

But that isn't the end of my weekend!
On Sunday (yesterday) I went to church with Dr, it was nice. After church we went to a park and walked around a lake (or was it just a huge pond?) either way it was a very nice, relaxing day... we sat and talked for awhile, which is always nice. Then it was time for him to go home...and that brings me around to the end of my weekend... =^ ^=

A whole lot of nothing...

I actually can't think of anything to put for today, but for reasons unknown I felt compelled to do an entry!

So here we go, my entry of nothingness...

Today has just been a day like any other, maybe more dull than usual. I woke up and did some job applications and now here I sit, doing my usual online stuff until it is time to go to a church function...suppose I could do an entry about that...

It was something I had decided on being part of my "New Year's Self-Improvement Plan". I am starting to go back to church. I had decided that since I was moving it would be a good time to re-explore that world, and its also a pleasant social outlet... I had stopped going since the ward/church I had grown up in was full of two faced back stabbers, plus everytime I stepped into that church I felt ill, pretty sure I was allergic to something in that building.

I went yesterday, to church, it was pretty nice. Still find myelf torn with the music, it sounds pretty, but a lot of the lyrics are rather disturbing...

Dr said he'd take me to a singles' ward starting this coming Sunday, since he was in Mexico this past weekend. I am looking forward to that. When I would stay with my oldest sister in Cali I'd have to go to church with her and she attends a single ward, they do all kinds of fun stuff. Hope the singles' ward around here does fun things too...

I think that's enough talk about church... =x.x=
Perhaps my thoughts on people who find "Lolita" an inappropiate way to dress...

Yes, this subject will do for now. I find it interesting that people find "Lolita Fashion" an inappropriate way to dress, espcially when you don't wear the "I'm a cupcake" styles that, honestly, look more like costumes than clothes. I should start making a daily log of the oufits I wear and what kind of responses I get while I am out...

Its interesting that wearing less clothing is more acceptable. If only our parents and other adults would step back and think a moment when they tell us not to wear our Lolita clothing. Because they are basically telling us the opposite of what their parents told them. We try to leave the house in our fluffy modest dresses and are told to go change into something "normal"... a pair of pants or skirt, a t-shirt and sneakers, right?
Its like, um, hello? Its not our fault if people have pervy minds, but that's why we stay away from pervy people. In Lolita clothing one is more modestly dressed than the average persons our ages! Though, in this backwards society where it is acceptable to wear little more than your underwear in public and not have anyone give you a second look, I suppose it is only right that people feel offended when they see a young person dressed modestly...

I must say though, the looks and stares I get here in AZ are much less mean and judgemental than those I recieved back in WA... Here it is more an expression of surprise or amusement than anything, and a lot more "Oh, don't you look pretty", actually had one elderly couple comment on my teddy bear and nothing else about my outfit, it was a welcome change of comment.

Well, I am running out of steam and am feeling very calm at the moment...perhaps I shall take a nap.

Until next time! =^ ^=

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

So today has certaintly been a rollercoaster of emotions...

I woke up to discover a rather rude plastering of shit all over the AZLoli forum about a missunderstanding. I don't blame the person with wich I had the misunderstanding, they were actually very polite. Especially compared to the other person who felt the need to not only tell me to remove my mistake on the thread it was posted on, but they also made a thread after the person with which I had had the misunderstanding had made a thread explaining the misunderstanding, and this other person also felt the need to send me a message ontop of it all...

Of course when I woke up and got online and saw the first message from the person with whom I had had the misunderstanding I fixed the mistake...that's when I noticed all of the other messages! I find it rather uncalled for to post that many messages during a time which most people are sleeping...
For those few of you who actually know me, and read my journal, you'd know that I get online very early and stay on very late. Last night was no different, I was online until 12am and got back on a little before 7am... I find it very frustrating when people can't be polite and have a little patience.

ANYWAY after I had thought I had gotten that all cleared up I went out with Dr and my family for lunch at Black Angus. It was very pleasant and yummy. =^ ^= I had almost completely forgotten about how stressed out this morning had made me. After lunch Dr and I went to the mall to pick me up a few job applications and talk about our plans for next week. Once we got back to the car and were ready to leave we discovered his truck's battery had died... =x.x= Took roughly a half hour but a nice old couple gave us a jump...sadly this meant it was time to take me home and say goodbye until next week. He is going to Mexico with his family for the weekend. =;~;=

Once home I decided to go swimming (which I am just about to go due), but first, for reasons unknown to me I went ahead and checked my e-mail...more messages from the AZLolis!

Again, the person with whom I had had the misunderstanding was very polite, while the other person, and yet another who had stated intrest in the mistake were varied degrees of rude. I fixed my mistake and stated how I felt about getting pelted with all those unneeded messages, and they replied with rude and very belittling words. People seem to underestimate how powerful words are. I am now back where I was this morning, feeling very depressed and wanting to just curl up in a dark hole and cry... =;_;=

So needless to say the picnic for tomorrow (which was the misunderstanding) is no longer happening, and I will be doing nothing...yay me! =^ ^=

Anyway, I am going to go swimming now, and I shall try not to "accidentally" drown...after all, I do want to see Dr again! =^ ^;=

Arrived Safely...

So, I arrived safely to Mesa on the evening of Sunday, Febuary 8th. I hopped online right away to do my usual chatting and one of the people I had met was all, I have a free day tomorrow if you would like me to show you around. I hesitated for a moment but reminded myself that I had set out to start anew!

So I took him up on his offer. We spent all of Monday dinking around at thrift stores and then went to the Botanical Gardens. So pretty! =^ ^= After that we went to the Cheesecake Factory and stuffed ourselves silly. The food was so good. After eating we decided to mill around in the mall while we decided what to do next...but we were too full to walk for long, so we headed back to his car, where we just collapsed and talked...

We decided we had had such a good day together, but since it had been rainy and kind of icky we hadn't gotten to do all the things we had wanted, so we made plans to meet up the next morning bright and early! And we did...

On Tuesday he took me to the Zoo! We had even more fun I think. We spent 5 hours wandering the zoo, it was such a lovely day. We had planned to go out for dinner again after the zoo, but couldn't decide what we wanted so we just went to a park and sat, watching the sunset while we talked some more...that was when we decided to have a try at dating! =^ ^=

I am so excited, I finally get to actually date. I've never had any real relationships, especially not any involving going out and doing stuff on a regular basis. I hope it lasts, he is a very pleasant person, and he's patient enough to deal with my quirks...

Today I played with my kitten (Cuddle "Bug"), she was just too cute. Bug is really liking the warm weather.

I was going to wear one of my punk-n-loli inspired outfits today, but I just couldn't find my jewlery for it! So when I realized how much I was over reacting, I decided to just take a break and catch up on Princess Portal. And, sure enough, after a short while I remembered where I had packed the jewlery I had been looking for, but at the point it didn't matter...

After catching up to today on Princess Portal I was very relaxed and had noticed just how lovely a day it was outside and thought it would be a good day to go out and just do nothing. So I had decided to wear my new dress, but I didn't have any accessories for it, and since I didn't want to wear a blouse under it it needed accessories! SO I grabbed out my eyelet lace and some cream lace and set to work making lace-cuffs and cute little hairclips!

By the time I was ready to get myself all put together I realized how warm it had gotten outside. I didn't want to wear my wig, but my hair just wasn't cut right for the look I was going for. So I decided it was time for something new! I grabbed my scissors and went to the bathroom and set to work...



So now I am all dressed up and have nowhere to go...tomorrow is a new day, and my outfit is all ready to just throw on in the morning!
