| i now experience the burdens of an old car. lemme see whats been wrong so far... thermostat broke coolant housing broke 2 alternators (first replacement was a dud) now my battery takes its last volt to get me home. i really hope this is the last of my trouble for awhile, theres at least a reason for my battery doing what it did, the crap alternator i got earlier.
stay alive car, cant afford this! | comments: 5 comments or Leave a comment  |

| ive been thinking for awhile, as much as im givin the second oppertunity for living back with my parents, im afraid im going to regret it once i do, not knowing what ive been missiing down in florida. im trying to sort out for what best for me.
home offers: job with better pay possibly the blue sentra close to family and friends time for school
Florida offers: a really sweet person great dog friends privacy and my own room
when i make this trip up north to mass july 8th to the 13th, it will tell me alot if i can deal with living at home again or if its really not worth it as much as my parents miss me. (if they miss me enough they can afford to fly down for a visit.)
my income is getting better here with pizza delivery and suit work on the side, its not what id like to do for the rest of my life but its a healthy income so far. one of my coworkers goes to school for mechanics so it shows me it can be done. however florida in general sucks especially for there education system.
im affraid of big changes, i never regret coming down here, coming back may really be a regretful step backwards... | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment  |
| | hope you all have a great time! for those who dont know, im still not going, got life plans and a family trip up north. still thinking about furfright this year, im sure itll be well worth it. | comments: 5 comments or Leave a comment  |
| yup you heard right, im gonna be auctioning off my old fox suit and old kio suit. havent come up with a starting bid yet.

| after going to the very awesome FWA seeing all the suits made by latin, jocifur, lucky etc. and my friends in them, really motivated myself to get into gear on the suit making. the thought of making a whole new kio suit sounds great too, hopefully something more toony and form fitting.
another realization is that i dont leave the house much to see friends or even bother to communicate with anybody in the area. kind of been locking myself indoors looking for errands to do. i need to hit up some numbers and do something fun.
last is what to do with my car, if id be able to make a good trade off for a s13 240sx coupe. however i just bought new pads which was a dent in my wallet and its pretty much safer to run my car until it dies, not that i think it will anytime soon. | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment  |
| | i think its time for a new suit for myself, the suit i own is really outdated and icky. any ideas for redoing my char or making a nnew one? feedback would be great! | comments: 7 comments or Leave a comment  |

| as of late, ive apparently been an asshole to my roomates and my friends. i have the tendancy to talk down to people if in an argument over something, even something little and stupid. ill say it before i think about it. so my roomies are kinda miffed about it, especially todd whos feelings ive probably hurt many times. he doesnt deserve that at all.
second, ive been spoiling dusty too much and begining to have the assumption hes more my dog. very dumb of me to think that and i feel ashamed about it. dusty gets plenty of love but i honestly need to back off a bit so hes not completely attatched to me as he already is. it hurts but its for the better.
all these troubles keep happening and saying soryy doesnt do justice until something changes about me for the better. im really numb and depressed about it but i just need to chug along and get my shit in order like a grown up.
i dont want sympathy or anything like that, it really just needs to be off my chest and let people know whats up. thats all |  |
| well its that time again, so we gotta get ready for 09 now! got some good money comming in with x mas gifts and selling my mountain bike. itll go to credit cards and my car but its a lot of stress off my hands. it also may sound odd but static and I have our seperate rooms now where we can do what we want with them. we plan on having plenty of sleep overs in each room so it may be pretty funplus it works better for our different work sheduals when we need sleep.
the artimas head still needs fur but the patterns are ready to make. should be done within the week if im not too busy. the mangusu head will be carved a bit more so the user can have more of a neck when he puts it on (learned from the dusty head.) all in all, i got nothing to be depressed about other than missing family which ill be seeing soon anyways. miss them like crazy!
ok resolutions are as follows: no more cigaretts, i dunno how i started but the stress from earlier is a big factor. train dusty a handfull more tricks. i already started teaching him to crawl and speak. restore my sentra and getting it running like new. i already ordered a fuel pressure regulator strait from japan! should be in friday. last but not least, to get a better job. not sure how thatll go but i gotta keep my fingers crossed.
08 was a rough year for many so lets take the next step and make up for it in 09! | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| im not going to sugarcoat this... if things dont pick up here by the summer in florida im moving back home to mass where i have a great job willing to take me back and close friends to see again.
merry x mas to ya all out there, and especially to my friends! | comments: 13 comments or Leave a comment  |
| well... things are getting really stressful with the holidays comming up, getting alot more hours at my job, which is leading me too exausted to get far in the suiting stuff. however its still going. status is as follows.
dusty yote kinda dissapeared for a long time so his work is being put on hold till he pays.
working on the artimas head, hopefully to get it done for x mas.
the mangusu suit is in the works but only a head is carved. (i think hes got pics already but i need to work out a proper fur too use for him, so contact me guy.)
storm wolf's german sheppherd suit is on hold at the moment, so im not cluttered with too many heads laying around in the house.
with the free time i have gotten was used to take care of the dog and to find a better job. i got a kennel tech offer but it didnt pay good at all, so i denied them. towyn moved out of the place last night with media taking his room so now im moving into the garage where he was in. things are going to be much different for sure. im wishing the best for towyn mentally and money wise. moving is never easy.
i got a few debts i need to get paid in the mean time so getting artimas's head will surely help. im sorry for loosing touch with everyone out there, its been very stressful to the point of breaking down in tears now and then. no money to spend for myself or to see family this x mas is not fun at all.
all work and no play makes jack a dull boy... i dont like being jack... | comments: 5 comments or Leave a comment  |

| so yeah after being at the new place, i noticed there was another owner of the same model and year sentra ser. i finally got to bump into this fella, turns out hes a mechanic named ian (also my brothers name) going into college at UCF. really awesome guy! we talked about our cars and got to know his history pretty well. told him the problems with mine like the mileage andd the exhaust leak and leaky wheel. hes just says right up hell get those fixed easily. welds the holes in my muffler shut, finds the exact problem with my lack of power. plugs up my air leaks. found out exactly where my coolant leaks and why, rerouted the ground wire for the airflow sensor for better airflow. hes offering nect time to put my short throw shifter in and replace the bushings with what he had for his ser.
he did this all for the sake of being a nice guy. he said he did it for a lot of his friends back at home. he didn't think of it much of a big deal at all. wow i wish i knew this guy sooner, i definitely owe this guy something in return. Maybe ser it around the town and get food.
plus 1 friend plus one mechanic plus a faster moving car equals an awesome day. | comments: 10 comments or Leave a comment  |

| ok so i found out whats wronge with my car...ALOT
heater core is leaky (sucks up coolant fast) struts are gone tirod is crap holes in muffler head gasket leak oil leaking rubber lines want replacing
yeah, with all the repairs it was estimated about $2500. well i always wanted a project car, careful what you wish for.
ill really need to hold off on fixing my baby for awhile till i can afford it, plus i dont want it getting in the way of my MFF trip. the car still drives well, actually much smoother with the oil change.
well whatever, i got a suit to sew up! | comments: 8 comments or Leave a comment  |
| well i finally brought my car to the shop for an oil change, tire rotation and to fix the coolant leak. yeah... heres when i start to find problems with my car and hopefully to not spend too much. im also gonna try my car with premium gas instead of regular. my car deserves better anyways.

| well after spending a good a mount of time at the new house, everyones finally getting settled. However im still stressing out here and there over money, working at a job i really dislike (no offence towyn) and its not paying nearly enough to make me happy, only to pay rent. as a result im opened up comissions for suit building and already got a couple of nice people interested in owning a creation of mine, hopefully the moeny they promised will come in soon. Not to be a jerk but its because of the fact i have around 10 dollars in my name, enough for gas to work until friday, a subway card is my only means of a real meal that my mom hes been so nice to keep recharging. unfortunately it seems pathetic to be stuck in this situation.
in other news, static treated me to a nice dinner while we celebrated kodi's big three-o dinner bash in downtown disney, we all laughed, ate, made fun of kodi being old, etc. it was an enjoyable time for all. hes still smiling and not wrinkly so hes not really that old yet. i found this in my little archive of pics, hell always be a goof one way or another. happy birthday again bud!

| since suits are high in demand and i have the time, space, tools and ability to whip out some pretty nice suits, ive come to the realization of starting my own fursuit business.
Im already in the making of my first commission, Dusty Yote, and im more than confident he'll love what i have in store with his suit.
anyways heres what i will be offering to start:
$600+ for heads (prefurrably k9 but willing to expand) $1500+ full body suit (ranging depending on a movable jaw, coloring etc.) $900+ partial (consisting of a head, tail, hand paws and feet)
for a full suit im willing to due a down payment of $600 to start for materials, then once the suit is done, expect the rest of the payment.
also all commissions come with blueprints im willing to draw out and talk over with to make sure you get what you want!
this isnt a joke or a scam, im seriously doing this! A website will be comming up in the near future for made suits, updates and so on.
feedback is great! please let me know your ideas if my pricings are fair. Contact me at kiowolf25@hotmail.com if your interested or if you want some questions answered. im all ears! | comments: 9 comments or Leave a comment  |
| jus a heads up for people since im getting asked this a lot, due to the move to a new house and all the expenses that came with it, im not going to be able to afford going to any con for awhile.
if all goes well, maybe FC 09 | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment  |
