So. Many. Changes.
I’m writing this way too early in the morning in Pittsburgh, PA. I’m vending at Anthrocon. Last night the room party in the room next to us took to the hallway. I feel like they played the same song for several hours. I watched Martial Arts movies throughout the night until I eventually fell asleep. My body cannot party anymore lol. I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed Bruce Lee’s The Game, The Big Boss. I’ve also enjoyed any of the Ip Man movies.
Vending wise has been fun. Every other minute I’m censoring a dick that just happened to pop out or a boob on a mousepad. I like cons with 18+ areas so much more as it makes the job easier.
Anthrocon is just one in several cons I’m slated to be at, so if you’re at any of the cons below, come say hi! I’m usually working for Furry Dakimakura or Fenris Publishing (who now own’s Furry Daki…so I guess it’s really the same company lol).
Furrydelphia, Philly, PA 8/25 through 8/27
Megaplex, Orlando, FL, 9/15 through 9/17
BLFC, Reno, NV, 10/30 through 11/2
MFF (hopefully), Chicago, IL, Nov 30 through Dec. 3
There are so many life changes happening right now and all at once. Life really doesn’t slow down for shit, but I’m both excited and anxious. My partner and I are about to buy our first house together. While I won’t share pics of the house, we’re really happy with our choice! I dread moving again, but it’s nice to know that we won’t be moving for a hot minute after this.
At the moment I’m working two jobs. While I’m not religious, I work for a church in the mornings. The pay has been great and I mostly work alone so it’s a good introverted job. My second and ever growing job is working Production for Fenris Publishing. I do book layouts, vend at cons, send things to printers, make candles, fulfill some orders. Now that Fenris has acquired Furry Daki, my duties have grown a lot. The pay for both jobs is about equal and having a check a week is kinda nice, but 46-56 hours a week (both jobs combined) is a becoming a little hard to manage lol.
It’s looking like I’ll be a full time furry soon, and that transition is kind of jarring. I’m used to working boring ass jobs like HR, Financial Aid (which is a total soul sucking job #justsaying I’m not sure how I survived seven years of that one). I’ve worked in factories, Payroll (another job that takes a lot of dedication that I cannot give lol), churches. And now I’m gonna be working from home soon and dealing with a lot of porn. I am both excited and terrified lol!
On top of becoming a full time furry, my own publishing house, Weasel Press is being taken over by Fenris. The house is literally my baby, but I cannot continue to put time and money into it. I need adult things like a savings account, and health insurance. I was originally planning on shutting the entity down, but I’m happy it is going to have a better life than what I can give to it. I’ll still be a part of Weasel Press, but I won’t be as active with it moving forward. It was a hard decision to even let it go after managing and owning it for close to 10 years, but I feel like it can get a little rejuvenated now. And while not everyone will understand why it’s happening, I can definitely say that it is for the best!.
I think that’s it for now, but hopefully I’ll be back with some writing content soon!
