Greetings from the Rockies!

[Shatyr]

Well, with all the new stuff, what's one more introduction post? 
 
Hi everyone,
 
I was a long-time lurker on the former Arena, but decided to try and be more active with the new site. I'll go through the suggested info, rambling as the mood takes me.
 
I'm old enough to know better and young enough not to care. I turn 29 in March, but I'm thinking of counting backwards once I hit 30. I live in Colorado, USA, though I'm originally from Canada. Dual citizenship is awesome.
 
I currently work full time as a bank teller and attend the Art Institute of Pittsburgh Online part time. I'm trying to change professions rather drastically, from banking to web design/development. Even with all the viruses and bugs, computers are way cleaner than money.
 
I'm single with no pets, though I'm contemplating getting a cat. I'll have to work around the allergies I keep telling my mom I don't have while I pop anti-histamines. I've recently started the P90X and it's going to do amazing things... when I'm not clutching my abdomen wondering how I managed to get so very out of shape.
 
I've been collecting ponies since I realized that money could purchase those brightly colored plastic darlings I saw on TV and toy store shelves. I've a rather large collection of G1's and a few G3's I use to mutilate via beginner customization. I've got Rapunzel and Mimic and a whole lot more, but I'm always on the lookout for additions to my growing herd that will one day, lottery willing, have its own dedicated, climate-controlled room in my house.

Welcome to the Arena.  I'm allergic to cats too so I know how annoying it can be.  I hope you manage to persuade your mother to let you have one!
