Well following Sanne's example and in honor of having over 3000 members now I figured I too would take a moment to re-introduce myself. And perhaps to better detail than I did when I first joined the site.
Ladies and gentlemen. My name is James Buchanan, no relation to the president for you history buffs. I got curious and looked into it one time. I am not named James after the president either. I was named James as a happy medium between my grandmothers wish to call me Jimmy and my father and mothers wish to just call me Jim as somehow James is a off suit variation of the Jim/Jimmy name family. I was born at 11:05 pm on a Friday night of December 16th, 1983 making me 27. Soon to be 28. I was born in Augusta Georgia and thought to have been born in Atlanta until sometime in high school. I currently reside in Virginia in the United States of America. I can and will divulge more information as to where I currently reside but only if you give me some form of proof of you being nearby and there is a possibility of us hanging out in the real world. And for those of you who like to follow stereo types, yes I am a certified grade A country boy and redneck. This however does not make me racist or anything of that sort for those of you who believe being country or a redneck means racist.
I have partaken in RPing in various forms over the years including the notorious T-styles commonly found in chat rooms of old. My current RP preferences are here, of course, and Furcadia. Not quite sure right off how long I've been here. I am fast approaching a year though. I've been a on/off RPer on Furcadia for near about 12 years which means, for those of you who know furcadia's history, yes I first discovered and joined it not too awful long after it's conception. And ironically it's birthday is the same as mine. That's how I discovered that it hadn't been around too long when I joined as I got on one my birthday a couple years back and there was all kinds of commotion about it being it's 10th birthday. I think this year will be it's 13th or 14th year in existence. My primary character on there is Kyle Lockhart and he has evolved much over the years. I own a dream on there call TatZ N ThingZ which I am in the process of transferring here to RPR for both Furcadians and non to enjoy. It is part of the group on here known as Avalon along with it's partner dream known as The Elysium owned by Nikina. Once I manage to get back on Furcadia, I will be rebuilding TNT, as I call it for short, and bringing Avalon to Furcadia. Myself and Nikina have the rules set so that what happens on Furcadia transfers here and vice versa thus allowing members multiple ways to develop their characters. So if they get on Furc and no one is on they can come here and develop their character through RP thus still affecting that character on Furcadia. When I will be back on Furcadia is unknown at this time.
As it pertains to more about my personal life...well let's see. I work at this place that makes sandwiches for 7-11's at various locations of the eastern seaboard of the united states. Not the most desirable job but I have fun with it and work hard. I've gotten to the point where I've been cross trained for work in various departments making me more versatile and a greater asset to the company. This also makes it where my chances are increased of being called in if assistance is needed which has already happened on several occasions before I even began cross training.
I do also like to draw. I ain't the best in the world but hey. At least I try. I also keep experimenting with various techniques and styles in attempts to make myself a better artist. Most commonly my drawings follow an anime style. More commonly a style similar to that of Dragon Ball Z. I am also a gamer though my gaming abilities are currently limited as the only working system I have is a Wii with the games Smackdown vs Raw 2010 and 2011 as well as both Star Wars The Force Unleashed titles. I am currently in the process of achieving 100% completion on all of them.
When not playing games, working, drawing or RPing, I'm just chilling. I don't really get out much so I'm most commonly at home. I am almost always watching TV or listening to music. As it pertains to TV and movies, I'll watch whatever including 'chick flicks'. If it catches my interest. This means that yes I do watch spongebob and other cartoons as well as regular tv shows and various movies. Music wise I don't really have a defined preference and will listen to just about everything with the most commonly heard being the likes of Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin and Skillet. Of course being a country boy I do listen to a good helping of country music as well with Brantley Gilbert, Alan Jackson, Randy Houser and Luke Bryan being my top choices.
Well...that was a bit of a drawn out re-introduction. Longer than I thought it would be. Heh. My apologies to anyone who's eyes got sore reading all of that. Now if you'll excuse me...
*disappears to continue my various 'projects'. (My characters in case your wondering.)*

I didn't know you were in Virginia. What part? I'm central Maryland myself. I'll be headed down to Springfield for a concert next Thursday night actually.

Only cause it's still a generalized area am I responding here on the thread but I'm in the fredricksburg/Spotsylvania area about halfway between DC and Richmond.
