Life of Syn - New Job, Wedding, and Story... Schedule? · 3:52am Jun 3rd, 2015

Eving!

No time to type entire words! Too many things! TOO MANY THINGS!!!

GAAAAAH!!!

New job! I'm a Research Scientist now at a company here in Minneapolis. The first couple days have been pretty standard on-boarding stuff, but I've got this new fitness tracker that they gave me for free, so I'll be obsessively counting my steps from here on out. The job looks great. I'm going to be working with insurance providers' data for the first several months, and then I'll transition to something new. Can't wait to actually dig in and start doing the work - this stuff is exactly what I want to be doing right now, and I'm so, so humbled that the chips have fallen where they have. I am a very lucky pony. :heart:

Speaking of transitions, wedding! In a week and a half! Oh goodness! There's a ton of stuff still to do, and I just got done planning stuff for my bachelor party on Saturday (yaaay improv!), and it's gonna be fantastic. I love my guy to death, and this is going to be an amazing step for both of us. Expect a mushy-gushy, purple-prosey update in the next couple weeks.

Horse Words! As you can probably guess, life's pretty busy between graduating, moving 800 miles, starting a new job, and doing wedding planning. Here's how that impacts my horsey projects:
----Sensation: chapter 25 will be in late June. Hopefully I can get the chapters all named before then (and let me know if the chapter names I pick are stupid. I'm... pretty bad at this. :twilightblush:)
----Editing: I just finished helping with a translation of Adult Section. Go check it out!
-----Other: I'm working on one or two more things as well, but I don't want to discuss them yet, since I don't know the timing on them. Rest assured, there is more coming!

Time for sleep. If you've read this far, then you get a Big Mac. :eeyup:

Let me know how you guys are doing in the comments. Even if I'm busy, I love hearing about what you're up to, and I'll try to respond to everyone.

Take care, all.

That's awesome, Syn! I'm glad you've got your dream job! And woohoo, better enjoy that last week and half of being without the ol' ball and chain! :rainbowwild: I kid, I kid. That's awesome, dude. Congrats again! :pinkiehappy:

Looking forward to the next chapter of Sensation, while I'm working on some new stories myself. :)

Sounds like you got quite a week going on.

I'm so happy for you! Adult Section is now in the popular section on the fimficion home page, if you didn't notice. And Congrats on your job! :twilightsmile:

Series #3 might take a while because I have two large projects to work on, but it won't take long.

Thanks, Bad! And I ABSOLUTELY intend to enjoy my last days of bachelorhood. My party's this Saturday, and it promises to be a very, very fun night. I'll be posting pictures on my Twitter!

Can't wait to read your new stuff! :raritystarry:

It's been a heck of a few weeks! It should let up after the wedding, though. SHOULD. :pinkiecrazy:

Thank you! And thanks for the heads up! Take as much time as you need on the picture. No rush. :twilightsmile:

The pic is working for me, but it was broken when I looked on my phone. Maybe that's the issue?

Just to clarify... Your wedding, right? I'm pretty sure it is.

Assuming I'm right, which I'm sure i am, that means a new life coming up. You gotta spend lots of time with each other. Enjoy the married life and then get back to writing when you're used to it...

The sad thing is that on both of these comments I've been wanting to say some stupid things for the sake of being random, but apparently i can't. Enjoy yourself.

Yep! I'm marrying my boyfriend of 4 years in a week and a half.

Thanks for the advice. I think you're probably right, and I'll make sure not to go too nuts trying to finish pony stuff. Don't worry about the silliness. I'm just as happy with your honest feelings. :rainbowkiss:

Well its more of an I'm having a hard time being silly in this line of comments' issue. Glad you're getting married. You're in minnesota now, right? Moved there from cali?
