24 is over. Series finale was awesome. There were a lot of low points in the series, but it ended on a high one. I'm sad to see it go.

I finally finished my first fursuit head. I've never attempted anything even remotely close to make a fursuit head, so it took me a long time to finish. Still, I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. I know it's not perfect by any means, and if I were to start over there's a lot I'd do differently. But, since it's my first, I'm pretty happy with ( Read more... )

Love the series, and the characters, not so much the ending. My thoughts are behind the cut. And yes, there are spoilers, so only follow the jump if you have already seen the entire series of Lost, or you just don't care.

In Phoenix with the family, for my brother's wedding. It's great to see family again, but I'm a little bored. There's not much to do in Phoenix, and it's hot. I'm hoping to hang out with friends today though while my family watches a baseball game, so that should be fun. =)

I just observed the flamingos... for 3 hours, and wrote ( Read more... )

I officially start in the Flamingo Unit at Woodland Park Zoo this Thursday.  The Flamingo Unit doesn't involve only flamingos, it also contains the red pands, the pudu (pudus?), and some miscelaneous other bird species.  Soon, it will also include the tree kangaroo ( Read more... )

Weekly Monthly Update

It's been quite some time since I've updated on here, in large part because this past month has been incredibly busy, and the few times where I've been home alone I've wanted to spend it doing things other than sitting at the computer.  But, finally, my calendar is clear for a bit, and I can talk about all the fun I've had this ( Read more... )

I got the "job" at the zoo! And it's even better than I expected. Not only will I be working with flamingos, but I will also be working with red pandas, pudu, and other bird species. Also, the keeper for the unit is a lead keeper at the zoo, so often she will have me helping out with other animals in the zoo as well. She's also said that if I ( Read more... )
