Moving!

So I've done some thinking, and I've decided to start over fresh. I won't get too into it, but there are things I need to learn to step away from, and move past— the name Kiha isn't me anymore, and honestly hasn't been in years. It's a remnant of a pretty bad time, toxic feelings, yadda-yadda, so i…

Random Updates and Where to Find Me!

I feel like it's been forever since I've written up a proper journal. :T Oops. Sorry, folks! In a nutshell: Life has been going pretty good the last little while. Had another depressive bout that had me basically avoiding the internet altogether for a few days, but I'm feeling significantly better…

I've Always Hated Roller Coasters...

So on the 18th I'd finally managed to get myself settled with my life and really be at peace with everything and stuff has been super awesome. I've begun to notice a pattern that almost as soon as I post a journal or a Facebook status talking about how great everything's going, something snaps and…

At Peace

It's really starting to hit home just how well a lot of things are going for me. I mean, my job sucks, but I'm starting to learn that it's more manageable than I've been letting myself believe. It has its tough moments, sure, but after the job interview for the Grooming Trainee position at PetSmart…

Suddenly, ADOPTION!!

I seem to have made it a habit of staying up until 3-4am, oops. BUT ANYWAY, I HAVE EXCITING NEWS! I signed the adoption papers on a handsome kitty Monday night! He'll be moving in on Saturday. I am SO EXCITED. <333 David and I have been looking for a pet for a few months now, to help with my emotio…

Ebay, Triops, Life and Mermaids

Wellp, I never heard back after that job interview. I was told to expect a phonecall either Monday or Tuesday if I made it to "round two" of the interviews, and... It's Saturday now, no word. So I'm starting to think I didn't get the job. Dave says to wait until about a week has passed, just to be…

Dream Job Interview! <3<3

As the boyfriend and I were getting ready to have supper tonight, my cellphone started ringing. I wasn't even gonna bother picking it up because I've been plagued with scam calls and Telus trying to heckle me into changing my cellphone plan (my dad pays for my phone bill so I'm not even the one to…

Keeping Myself Busy

The robbery I mentioned in my last journal has been fucking with me, mentally. My anxiety spikes every time I have to go to work. Thankfully my boss has been trying to get someone else scheduled on with me during my shifts, but there are still days in the week where it's not busy enough for corpora…

Got Robbed At Work Tonight...

C&P'd from a forum I frequent, because I'm honestly too shitbaked to type all this out again. Had a robbery at my store tonight while I was working alone. It was only minor-- Just a case of beer taken and the guy didn't threaten to hurt me or anything, but I'm still really shaken up by it. I was do…

Okay, Shit's Gettin' Fun (More Mermaid Talk)

So tonight was my first swimming lesson, getting the hang of the dolphin-kick and really getting a feel for my "mersona," which I'm SO PUMPED ABOUT. ... Although really it wasn't a formal lesson, it was my friend S who I've known since 8th grade taking me to the public pool where she's been working…

Life Has Gotten Weird, and I'm Suddenly a Mermaid.

First off, I want to apologize again for my absence. Things have been... different. Had my appointment at the START clinic just shy of two weeks ago. Was told I'd hear back about a follow-up appointment regarding my assessment by now. Called last week. They told me to wait again. It's not been almo…

Hello, Watchers!

Holy crap I've gotten like twenty new watchers in the last three days WHERE ARE YOU PEOPLE COMING FROM ... actually don't answer that. We all know where you're from. :U (also SUP FELLOW FD_2'ERS <3) First of all, I wanna say thanks to everyone who's watching me and occasionally reads my dumb little…

CHAINMAILLE YAAAAYYY

So, we've hit a bit of a cold snap here-- As in, -30 Celsius and below the last couple of nights. While it does tend to get cold in Newfoundland, it's been a really, really long time since it's been this cold. We're also getting way, way more snow than usual; the snowbank outside my house is well o…

Damn Chainmaille D:

Okay, so because of the hugeass snowstorm we got today, my chainmaille supplies didn't get delivered. Again. I'm starting to get a little antsy, because now they've been stuck in limbo at the post office in my town for longer than they've actually been in transit from Saskatoon to here. With any lu…

Back To Life

So with the new year just around the corner, and after quietly lurking the shit-pits of FA and seeing the hot mess happening over there nowadays, I've decided that I'll be setting up here for good. I haven't been doing a whole lot of artwork lately, and the writing's been slow, but I do have a huge…

Kiha's Helpful Guide To Asking For Commissions

What is it with the recent influx of people messaging me asking me to commission them? Like, I get that you're more likely than not broke, and don't want to / can't put money towards renting adspace on somewhere like, say, FA. I completely understand! But there are other ways to get exposure for yo…

CAN I JUST SQUEAL ABOUT POKÉMON CARDS FOR A SECOND HERE

Okay okay okay so like everybody knows, I have a major boner for collecting Pokémon cards. I've been doing it for years, it's always been kind of a hobby for me, my binder is seriously like 20lbs of just fucking cards everywhere and I'm super obsessive about organizing them by shininess, color orde…

No, You Can't Commission Art Of My Fursona. STOP.

I'm finally gonna speak out about this before any more happens. Nobody, and I repeat NOBODY, has my permission to have sexual art drawn of their characters with ANY of mine. At all. Period. The only times I've drawn Kiha in sexual situations with other characters has been with my ex, and those pict…

Stream's Done, Because UghMyStomachWhyyyyy

Ending the stream earlier than I'd anticipated because stomach is killing me. Gonna go lie down, might try it again later tonight depending on how I'm feeling. On the plus side, sound's fixed! Now watchers can listen to my dumb tunes. :I

Streaming Again! Like Now. Just 'Cuz.

Gonna be streaming again! Working on that Avienne sketch I was doing last night. Hoping to finish off her wing, color it, and then get more shading done! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/feath.....sy-shenanigans Should be up now in a minute or two. I can't guarantee the sound problem will be fixed, so…

Kiha’s avatar

Stream Done!

Stream's done for the night. Thanks to the three people who came by to chat! :D I'll definitely be doing that again tomorrow when I get up while I (attempt to) finish the Avienne pic I was working on tonight! And hopefully I'll be able to figure out the sound problem, too, but it's unlikely. xD AH…

Kiha’s avatar

Streaming!

Okay, I've decided to give streaming a shot because I am bored as damn. I can't get the sound to work for some reason, so it's suuuuuper quiet, but I've already spent nearly an hour on it so I'm giving up. At least there's stuff showing now. xD Feel free to check it out! http://www.ustream.tv/chann…

Back To Business

Wellp, okay. Now that I'm kind of actually, legitimately, honest-to-god letting go of FA (no more journals or submissions over there from me), it's time to get my Weasyl page figured out and prettified and actually figure out what I'm gonna... Idk, actually do with myself here. For the record, pret…

Guess I'm Moving Here For Good

Not really going to get into it much. I'm not particularly stable at the moment, I'll probably explain once I'm not... Y'know. On the brink of throwing up. Basically, everything I post online now will be between here on Weasyl and LiveJournal (my public page there is NauticalMoose. My personal jour…

And Now I'm Playing Hatoful Boyfriend!

And I'm kicking up my old blog again to post chapters with commentary as I play through the game!

Think of it like a Let's Play, only with screencaps and wri…
