More ready to fall

Journal Entry: Tue May 19, 2009, 6:14 AM
Today I'm headed to the dentist to get my last two wisdom teeth removed. I'll probably either be totally zonked out and reading for the next few days or I'll be on the computer endlessly for lack of anything else to do. I'll probably try to stop and pick up a new sketchbook on my way there or back so that my pain killer induced mind can be fully exposed and narrated through the shaky nature of my under-exercised drawing hand. Perhaps I'll even begin writing my first novel! lets be optimistic.

Well I suppose I'll stop rambling here and find something else to occupy my anxious mind. The one thing that's worse than recovery is waiting to get your teeth ripped out. Again expect more art work from me in the coming months. Although I didn't upload much last summer it is the time of year when I do quite a bit of drawing because I have fewer (if any) classes. Ultimately if my boyfriend rigs up his internet stealing devise then I will be loading more art in the next few months. Again I hope everyone is doing very well and taking care of themselves.


Thanks for inspiring me.

Good luck with that. You could get a job at a school for the young and unstable. If I can stand it I might get a masters in something.. although I really don't know what yet. I just logged onto furc and holy shit. They really sold out on the pixel scam thing.

lol School for the young and unstable. :XD: I probably should have gone to a school like that. ha ha :b
Masters means more schooling. Hell, that was my original plan back in my early 20s. Masters in computer technology. But, I got older and my desires shifted. We'll see what actually winds up happening. Right now I need to just concentrate on finding work.
Yeah, I just logged on Furc for the first time in like a year a few days ago. I was shocked at all of the changes (some of which I was like, it's about damn time! lol) and could only shake my head at the number of paid avatars they added. I think they're getting a little out of control with that stuff. I miss my wings though, so I guess I help encourage that mess by buying the damn things when I can. lol
I wasn't surprised however to find that Furc was basically exactly the way I remembered it. Nobody I knew was on, it was mostly kids sitting around babbling, insulting one another and trying to be "cool" and failing miserably. lol I haven't been back since. I planned on becoming a regular again, but... I dunno. Furc's lost A LOT of it's appeal to me. It's just not the same anymore.

I agree with you on that last part. The game has fallen apart for us I believe it mostly results from the lack of familiar names and places. It seems that the age that the game attracts hasn't changed too much though. Every time I return I find myself more detached from the people who play. As always the only thing I miss is the time consuming nature of creating artwork and dreams for it. Unfortunately I rarely need fillers of time these days.
I noticed in my last few ventures into that pixelated world that it has become even more adult oriented than it used to be. I remember when the one slave trade and KC were considered the sketchy dreams. Now there are such nasty names and themes and the patches are all so "adult" oriented that it has become difficult to find any good conversation that isn't looking for an unsatisfying fulfillment of desire.
Ultimately I miss the chatting and the creativity of the game in that short time when I addictively played it. Fortunately it looks like I can never go back.
Anyway the masters degree is more of a distraction from actually doing something with myself now that I don't have the undergraduate excuse for not getting a decent job.

The age has changed drastically from Furc's early days. Back when I first found it, I was right around the average age in my early 20s. Nowadays, 14 seems to be the average age. Which is annoying. There aren't any adults which guarantees no decent conversation and no decent RP outside of "Wanna yiff?" from all the kids. That's even more annoying. I remember when that question was a joke and only the newbie little kids did it. Now it seems to be the first thing EVERYONE says, including (or maybe especially) the long time Furc-goers. It's like people stopped coming for the conversation and the RP and started coming just for the chance to get through words what they can't get in reality. :XD:
Dream weaving was about the only thing that kept me on Furc after it started to slide down into the lower pits of Hell. After a while (and after the overhaul of the dream building program) even that began to lose interest for me. I think I miss that more than anything else. I was so addicted to building dreams, I've got both my laptop and my desktop computers full of old dreams and half finished dreams. I'm beginning to think I'm never going to finish them, yet I can't bring myself to give them up after doing so much hard work on the stupid things. I think along the way toward building a bigger and better Furc to satisfy more people, they lost sight of what Furc really was and have taken a lot of the fun out of the game for a lot of people. It's too big and too damn program oriented now. Even with cable and a damn good connection, it took me damn near 10 minutes to download the newest version of Furc. I imagine people on dial-up take several hours to get it. I think that's insane. Instead of spending so much time concentrating on what else they can program to sell to all these kids to get theirselves richer, they need to concentrate on remembering what Furc used to be, and trying to get it back to that. Maybe then they could start attracting a more mature crowd like that used to.
(If they ever managed to implement the age confirmation program, it'll really thin FurN out, and that'd be interesting. lol)
You don't need school to find an excuse to not get a job. Look at me, I've been doing it for years. lol Of course, now that I desperately WANT to get a job I can't because of stomach issues. Damnit frustrating. And since James got laid off from his job back in November and didn't go back to work until January, we're still sitting with out thumbs up our butts waiting on the insurance to kick in so I can go see a damn doctor. x.x They said 5 months. They lied. It doesn't start until June first. That's closer to 6 months.

That's a bummer about the health care.. if only we could get our act together like every other economically advanced nation and make it available to everyone all the time.
I guess I miss the conversation and the art inspiration of furc more than anything. I'll just have to drift into my literature for that now. In all reality I'm sure I'll find more in the pages of novels than I ever did from the words of children on the internet.. it still leaves you looking back though.
As for old dreams unfinished... my main drive on the old PC is dead so all of my dreams and artwork are gone. If that's not an easy way to let go I don't know what is. It would be interesting if they could keep the kids out of furN. Unfortunately they would all fib about their age to get in just like I would have/ did when I started playing.
I do technically have a job it just pays poorly. I'm a cook at a small market up in VT.If only I could be done with my boring work life and do what I want all the time. I just want to write a best selling novel and disappear into my hobbies.
