Kira's Space

Wow. I can’t believe it has been 12 years since the last time I skied. And I can’t believe that I had forgotten how much I loved it.

Yes, the last time I skied was just after Christmas in 2002, at Winterplace in West Virginia. When I lived in Tennessee, getting up to Winterplace was only about three and a half hours - easily doable for a day trip. But living in Huntsville makes that an almost seven hour drive.

Made some updates to the website today. This website.

Notably, it’s actually a pretty big growth from what I intended just a couple months ago to be just a simple blog. I’ve started adding and fleshing out some more real content:

So the recent news Dr. Phil wants to do a show about furries is the latest thing to sweep the fandom.

I’ve been around this fandom a LONG time - nearly twenty years at this point. And I have seen this same thing play out over and over and over again. It will go something like this:

A long December and there’s reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can’t remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin’
Now the days go by so fast

So 2013 sucked elephant balls. But I’m going to set some goals for 2014. That way maybe it won’t be as terrible as last year.

So what was 2013 like? Well…

If you’ll indulge me, it’s time for my yearly Christmas post.

So the latest thing that seems to have swept the fandom is the outrage over the outage of Furaffinity. I posted this to Twitter, but here are a few more thoughts on that:

Sometimes, as I look around, I feel a little bit like I’m living through my own little personal version of the heat death of the universe. Only instead of the universe, it’s my life. Everything is expanding, pulling away and cooling off.

The cheese is good today.

Welcome to the relaunched Kira Collie blog, the new home for Wanderings and Wonderings.

This is still very much a work in progress, but coming soon, hopefully, more content.
