So much to say here that I can't say. But one day in the future when I look back nostalgically over these journals, I want to remember how I felt when I first got my hands on Dash Tiger.

Life is unpredictable. Which is a good thing, because otherwise what's the point. Relationships are hard, which is a good thing, otherwise they wouldn't carry any meaning. Fursuits are tight, which is a good thing, otherwise I'd have no reason to lose weight.

OMG so so happy with the new fursuit. It's my first commissioned suit, with both my previous suits being made entirely by me - this is the first time I can suit up without that niggling fear in the back of my mind that I'd done something wrong with it. I am immensely happy with the work  phoenixwolfsuits has done, and I feel like he is the best tiger fursuit I've ever seen. Which is great, because he's mine! He suits my personality perfectly, he is well made with obvious attention and care to detail and I recommend phoenix very highly.

It's been over a year without a fursuit for Mangusu and I, which has had a greater toll on him, for not being able to express his dance creativity as much as he could. But all that is changing now so expect to see a lot from him (and a bit from me too!) Juven should be arriving on stage in a few months, probably to debut at MFF.

I expect a great deal more happiness in my life now, which I know is an odd thing to say, but I just have this positive feeling.

Great things are ahead.
