ye can find me here http://www.furgather.com/TabByte, that is all

I hate to post this here but I need all the help I can get. My family is suffering some financial trouble and we have been given the opportunity to pull ourselves out with a super awesome job offer from SpaceX aimed at my Partner. The catch is, we live up in Washington State and the Job is in California, meaning we would have to relocate. I made a go fund me campaign to try and help raise some of the money as I know that Three jobs isn't going to get us $7,800 in two months ( the amount needed to pay off current debts and afford to move).. I'm trying to raise at least $3,000 to help my partner out. So If you don't mind giving a look, giving a dollar or at least giving a share, it would be much appreciated.

*warning some adult content*

I get a dollar for every one I make and another for every one I sell... So if you have an image you want on buttons, hair-flowers, necklace, bottle opener, etc just head over there and you would still be helping me out.

So i know for a fact that several people stopped in front of me to take my picture while i was in suit.. sadly i have no idea how they turned out or where any of them are... So yeah if anyone sees the horned bear gal please, link it to me.. that would be super awesome.

Hey you peoples! I have a good friend who is doing cheap art at the moments to help get some things fixed on her suit. Her prices are very reasonable for her style and it would be super awesome if you gave her a looksee and maybe got some cute arts of your character... or if you like the grimdark type stuff like me she is pretty decent at cute gore as i call it. Anyway here is her tumbler post http://cakeness.tumblr.com/post/821.....rt-commissions and her FA  Cakeness

and here are some examples of stuff she did for me and some of her regular work that I colored for her.

SHE FINALY HAS A FORM!

6 long years of being a monster, and I never really had a handle on my main fursona that ive been writing stories.. she mise well have been a cloud of black smoke this entire time.. but now she has a from. Now that she has a form I will be revealing her once my good friend  Cakeness finishes up the first draft reference.

Spaxs is a birdesque monster, always been close to the vulture breed but she is tall and lanky and clothed in rags and bits of cloth.. She has a bit of aloof personality and speaks with a back water type speech pattern. Her hobbies include collecting bones and putting them back together wrong... and the way she collects said bones is less than favorable to the rest of the living world. She loves to gorge herself on meat and anything that smells good at the moment. she has an affinity to set fire to things as well and most of her clothing and some of her feathers get easily singed. She also lost to startle people as the look on frighten faces delights and entertains her. She is not easily upset though which is probably the only saving grace she has. If she gets bored she will often wander off away to find something new to do.

Ive been playing her in rp games online and writing stories about her since highschool, mostly horror stores about her creeping into people's homes in the night and dousing their pets in gasoline and setting them on fire and watching the animal run around setting everything else on fire before dying.. yeah.. I have a morbid side.. But I'm a monster at heart so meh. I might tone her actions down since im adopting her into my furry life finally... but she will still be quite awful in game. Spaxs is the mindset i adapt while drawing mostly but everything i draw while in her though set is really odd and creepy and people have expressed their uneasyness around me when i have share such parts of my imagination so i tend to keep it away. I am bringing out Spaxs but it will be a while before i post HER artworks.

Yes well you probably already figured that out or guess it would happen as that is what happens in normal cases when one is pregnant. ANYWAYS.. I had my Little girl on the 19th, Posted her birth stats on my profile and I figured I would share the story with y'all and some updates about us as of now.

SO as the story goes, I woke up a 7:13am on the 18th and discovered that I may be leaking fluid.. My water hadn't broken but I still figured to call my midwife and tell her anyways. She said she wanted me to come in at 11 to test the fluid and if it was my water I had to start my antibiotics as I tested positive for strep b in the previous weeks which is a bacteria that causes pneumonia in newborns if i don't treat them and myself with antibiotics during labor. While prepping the car with everything and getting ready to head out around 9:30 ( as i lived about two-ish hours from the birthing center) MY real water broke.. Long story short, I got on my antibiotics.. went about my day as if it was normal, attended a wedding. And headed to the birthing center around 8pm to hopefully see if i was ready to be admitted. I originally planned for an all natural drug free water birth at the birthing center in Everett, sans the antibiotics that i absolutely needed. Sadly I found that Labor wasn't progressing so I was sent home to drink castor oil and return at 3 am.. In hopes my contractions would pick up better around then.. My midwife's goal was to have me giving birth by 7am as my water had broken and risk of infection grew greater as the day progressed. Once I got back home and had my first dose of caster oil my labor seemed to kick in on its own before the caster oil kicked in so we decided to head back to Everett as I was feeling the contractions every 5 or so min and they were lasting a little under a min each. When I got to the birthing center though they seemed to stop... I also had a fever and was feeling very ill.. After getting sick we felt that maybe I needed to try another dose of caster oil and try again.. after taking a short nap though I ended up getting sick once more and had an ever higher fever and My midwife feared infection so I got transferred down to Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland. By the time I got to the hospital My full labor began luckily and they got me on fluids as I was really dehydrated. I lasted about 27 hours without any drugs or medication to dull the pain or quicken labor * no pitocin or epidural* but because I was doing SOO well with coping through the pain of each contraction... I had to go on the Epidural so I would ignore the pain and let my body do its natural process to get my baby born. After a few hours of that being run with pitocin I was ready to push. Most new moms push for 3 or more hours but lucky me I got her out in just one ending my labor and birth process at 11:36 pm on the 19th nearly a full two days and she was finally here. Sadly because of possible infection as she was born with a temperature of 100 She had to be kept for 48 hours on antibiotics and I had to keep my temperature out of the fever zone for a full 24 before they would allow us to leave so We ended up staying in the hospital enduring lots of IV's and testing till 8:30pm on the 21st.

Now that we are home I have been spending my days resting, healing from giving birth, taking care of my little one, and getting things in order like doctors, and insurance and other legal matters like the stuff involving my car accident. My future plans still involve getting out more and eventing, I'm still going to work RF this year in September and I am planning a family camping event down at a pirate event in oregon in July. My birthday is next month on the 17th and I'm not sure what I will be doing other than going down to auburn to see my grandmother and Introduce her to her great grand baby. I'm still recovering from the car accident as well and will return to the chiropractors as soon as I'm all healed up from the birth and hopefully I won't be permanently disabled from it. Standing for long periods of time is a huge no no and my hip keep giving out from time to time and I really hope that it can be fixed with adjustments. So yep that Is my big major life update. I'll try to be more active on here as well now too starting next week.

Yesterday while stopped in traffic a guy rear-ended me going 35+ MPH. My initial response was apparently to remove my foot from the break and turn my wheel left so that none of the cars in front of me would be involved. Then after turning to look at the driver who hit me as he rolled to the side of the road with the front end of his car totaled and airbags deployed.. I turned off my car put it in park and proceeded to go into breakdown freakout mode. Crying and having a panic attack, a million thoughts seemed to surge through my head. What am I going to do? how am I going to pay for any of this? OH GOD MY BABY! Is my car as bad as his? why didn't my airbags deploy? Did I hit anyone? where is my phone? *looking over at the other driver again* Why is he just staring at me blankly, is he HIGH?? *looking around* Oh good people seem to be calling 9-11. I need to call my brother..

I called my brother once I was able to sort through my panic enough to get my phone working.. though explaining to my brother that I had just been hit caused my to freak out more as the reality of it all set in just a bit more, I was barely able to tell him where I was * not even half a block from our apartment complex* and to call 9-11 even though I was sure that others had called. after hanging up I felt cramps and pain in my stomach and feared the worst for my unborn child and attempted to slow my breathing so as to not go into pre-term labor. Soon cops arrived and one of the opened my passenger door and asked me if I was alright.. I told him that I had been rear-ended and that I was 33 week pregnant.. Everything else that goes down in these situations followed, my brother showed up after running down tot he scene and helped calm me down, my Id and info was taken down and I was taken to the hospital due to neck pain and being 33 week pregnant. I didn't even seem to notice till I was being helped out of the car that the impact had knocked my glasses right off my face or that I had hurt my neck at all.. Shock does funny things to you.

I got to spend the rest of the day In the hospital, a good 4 hours of that restrained because they were afraid of spinal damage.. and then the rest in another building monitoring my baby. Luckily I only have minor spasms and Whiplash.

So the skinny version of this and details on the guy who hit me. He was intoxicated via drugs of some sort, Driving without insurance, had a suspended license, and also got cited for the speed he was going. I was wearing my seat belt, sitting at a full stop a car's length behind the other person in front of me, and not at any fault in the accident what so ever. The driver apparently was driving a friends car and has no home address and was listed by transient.

TO answer any questions before they are asked. I only have broad form insurance that covers me as a driver no matter which car I am driving..So no my insurance wont cover this. I do not know if the owner of the car has insurance and I am currently finding that out. As I stated before yes I am fine essentially *minor neck injury and I'm in bed for a few days* MY baby is superb and wasn't affected at all. Yes I plan on taking as much legal action as I can against both the driver and the owner of the car.


I'm still a little shook up about all this but I will get over it, the worst part right now is I have no car and may not be able to afford the repairs on it till after things are settled in court. The damage to the car was just to the bumper* which was demolished* and muffler so it's still operational, but not street legal so I will have to repair it before I can drive it.


If anyone wishes to help out though I am offering $2 sketches with flat watercolor pencil's, I don't draw porn and my talents are pretty limited. I'm just trying to figure out ways to make ends meet for the time being.

Driving Home from spending the weekend with  Wulfebyte I got pelted with a sleet storm for the first hour of my drive as I headed south to my own perspective town * We live about an hour and a half away from each other*. All I could think about while sitting in my car grumpy catting at all the idiot drivers trying to go 60 on a 55mph highway in a sleet storm no less, I remembered how much I loved snow growing up, I mean I still love it for the most part, but mostly how the child perspective of snow has drastically changed since I started driving. The bear in me started kicking in and all I wanted to do was go find a cozy cave or something and sleep off the shitty weather. I have 7-8 weeks left on my pregnancy since this is my first I could pop any time from the 24th of Jan to the 2nd of Feb as most first time moms give birth sometime around a week and a day from their due date. I really hope I make it full term as I have had a lot of stress this entire time and I want my little girl to have the best chance possible health wise once she is born. With all this on my mind I Wonder how my own mother fared during the winter months as I was born mid February which means she too had to suffer her third trimester during December and January. I am usually excited for the years first snow and with everything going on I can't really must up the enthusiasm for the pretty, cold, white stuff that falls from the sky.

In other news relating to the whole having babies bit, I'm in my nesting mode. Everything seems to be coming together *finally* slowly, but still coming non the less. I should be getting my at arms reach bassinet that cozies up next to my bed and some other essentials that I ordered. I am getting my tabs and getting my state plates for my car a month early before they are due so I don't have to do that too close to the birth. And with the help of my household I will be Cleaning up the house and fully unpacking so that my room is ready to host new life. I am also Driving down to San Diego next week to see the last bit of my family that I missed out on this year when everyone was around each other, so hopefully no little surprises along the way.

I got a sewing machine from my mother to use until I get one of my own which means I can get back to crafting and making things. I need to re-stuff Wulfebyte's tail and fix a few of my regular clothing that needs seams fixed, but once those are out of the way I think I will start making plushies and dolls for my daughter. I don't really have the drive or time to put forward for suit making though so most of my sewing will be mundane. I do however plan on making more garb for my other non furry hobbies and I might get into costume making for suiters. Garbs and such to be worn over fursuits. It all depends on how much time I'll have to devote to sewing after my baby is born.


I'm still waiting on commissions from two different artists of Tab, One a Front and back reference as the one I drew was missing quite a bit, and the other another somewhat adult picture of Tab showing off her assets.. I gave creative control to the artist on her posing but just asked for specific things to be shown off. I'm tempted once I get more spare funds to Have some one draw a more comical version of Tab making grumpy cat face at all this blasted snow or something.. Have clothing for a change since most art of Tab is nude. And no, I haven't forgotten Kryss.. That is my suit, Once  karmma is finished with my partial and I get around to making my hoof boots I'll be doing actual pictures of me in suit *after I give birth* and that will be the majority of the art of Kyrssia. I split myself into two Characters because the fit two sides of my furry interests. I find role playing as Tab online to be more my speed because she is more the real me, and Kryss has more just been a character I played and will hopefully become more of an icon for my hobbies like my crafting and photography. It's been difficult figuring out who and what I am as a furry. I don't enjoy Yiff, but I don't mind having the art drawn of Tab because like me in real life, I'm very much a pleaser, and I like doing things for my mate. As an Asexual I don't seek out sex for my own needs, however if I'm not pressured or made to feel like it's an obligation I will participate when my partner initiates. so yup. Still developing my style and niche in the fandom I don't think I will ever become well known but It would be cool to be recognized in a good way in my local scene at least.

Once again I have made my journal TL;DR X.X oh well. To those of you who read, thanks much!

While watching a stream tonight, at some point I mentioned that I was Ace, a term commonly used to mean Asexual. Oddly enough It confused the hell out of everyone because apparently that term is only used in the Asexual community? This is something I have only recently been made aware existed myself for the last year or so.. For the longest time I thought I was broken, or gay, or not having the right kind of sex with the right kind of people. It's been quite the struggle. It's even lead to some heart ache in passed relationships and beyond belief despite the minuet amount of sex i was having *and the birth control i was using to regulate hormones and prevent cancer* , trying to fix my relationships and fix myself.. I somehow got pregnant. Now finally being able to come to terms with myself and develop healthy friendships and relationships whilst preparing for parenthood, I am slowly coming out? I guess. But I am surprised at how little is known about Asexuality. When i was finding out about it for myself it seemed like it was common knowledge for the open minded sex positive and LGBTQA friendly people and I'm finding there are many people still in the dark about asexuals. I feel a little worried about the back lash as being pregnant is an odd time to come out as an asexual.. i would be rich if i had a dime for every time I've heard "how are you asexual? you are pregnant!" I guess it's just going to be one big learning experience really.

uhh. I guess that's it. My mind wanders on odd things.

So I have decided to create an alternative fursona that panders to some of my lesser shown/known idiosyncrasies?

The character's name is Tab, She is a brown/tan and white anthro Manx cat. Since she is still me I kept her height at 5'6=5'7ish, plantigrade legs, wide hips, rounded bubble butt with a stubby tail no more than an inch long and 38-40 f cup sized chest ( yes this is my actual size, I'm a curvy lady) and of course a slight bit of pudge in the tummy area. She is primarily white with brown dairy cow splotches on her back, round her right leg, and the left side of her head, with smaller freckle like brown flecks across her face and left shoulder, trailing down her arm on the inside. She has light mossy green eyes with a bit of golden brown near the center sort of bleeding into the green. Her fur is medium length and kinda fluffy, with a slender face and typical cat ears that are short and wide with a little tufts at the tips.

As for posturing and personality she tends to be stuck with "bitchy resting face" as her default features are serious to sarcastic at any given time but when she smiles it can be anywhere from bubbly to devious depending on what or who is making her smile. She is very flirtatious in a mean sort of way and has her wits about her, but often she will act air headed or unaware of her surroundings out of laziness so that she doesn't have to pay attention or get dragged into anything that she finds troublesome.

Clothing styles are Comfy, classy,and elegant, she is a cat after all. So slacks or designer jeans, button ups, sweaters or blouses and fancy coats, corsets, stockings and accessories. Her favorite outfit would be a comfy pair of nice dark denim pants, a purple button up short sleeve blouse with a blue tank underneath, and a black cincher with lacy decals on it.* She also wears the same pair of Purple glasses that I wear irl*

Reason behind creating Tab..

Tab will sort of be my Murrsona I guess you could say because she is my flirty/romantic side and the personality fits more with how I am to my mates or significant others etc.. Ie: I try to dress nicer for/around them, I am more relaxed and less of a people pleaser around them because they accept me, flaws, perks, and all in-between, Apparently I'm very catty to potential mates.. I claim their things for my own, like their hats, pillows, spots on their bed.. I am still vastly independent and I choose how and when I get affection from them, Hmm thinking over this I'm a terrible person to date, but I guess there are some out there who like cat types to date, and In the end I am a loving, purring, ball of mush for the right person. If I ever get a mate that happens to be a fur or can be easily represented as an animal, any art dipeciting them and I will feature Tab, not Kryss who is my suiting character.

So I'm about 30 weeks now and coming in on the final stretch of my pregnancy and I went to the hospital today because I woke up with a resting heart rate of 117. At the hospital it bounced between 113 and 125 even after I was lightly sedated to deal with the oncoming headache that developed on the way to the ER. Not being able to find the cause they sent me home telling me to take it easy and stay in bed and that if the jitters and heart rate persisted in the next few days, to come back. Aside from today's issues Ive been just generally under the weather, stressed and trying to relax. Thus I haven't been able to do much.. I still need to get the rest of my fur for my head to Karmma and I need to unpack me new house as I just moved to Everett last weekend but thanks to my body basically shutting down all normal functions just to maintain the health of my baby Ive been out of commission. Sorry If I've been an inconvenience to anyone.

Apparently my species just changed from a bear bison to a Tauren druid? Talking to Wulfebyte about my actual personality in regards to animal behaviors, and to him I'm apparently too much like a cat.. Though I feel closer to bears and bovine in a lot of ways.. so to solve all the problems he just called me a Tauren druid because they are cows with a bear and cat form.. X.X.. Well I did primarily play Tauren when I was on WoW ages ago..

Now this asks.. should I make some sort of cat/bear fursona? I've never seen myself as a cat furry, but apparently I can be quite cat like towards some people..


Things I randomly think on in the middle of the night.

SO I spent all day yesterday making homemade applesauce and then canned a few jars of it. This is the First time I have canned anything by myself, and the 3rd time i have done it in my life, the other two times I was 5 or 6 and my nanna did all the heard work. I just put the stuff in jars.

Hopefully October will allow me a good yield of fresh and homemade foods like pumpkin pie from scratch and anything else I can get my hands onto.

I will be working on a set of hoof boots for my Kryss partial in the coming months and  karmma would be working on my head and hand paws as well throughout that time.. so hopefully I'll have a partial done and be used to suiting in it by next rainfurrest.

Aside from that I have had a sort of writers block figuring out my monster and what I want it to be like and look like. Ive always been able to think up different monsters and personalities for stories, but coming up with a personal identity has been hard. Ive only had characters this whole time and never identified with an actual Fursona and If i ever figure out this monster personality thing, That will for all intensive purposes be my actual fursona. Even Kyrssia is a character that I play out online. I will never see her as a full representation of me.


So yup that's the little update I have. I'll be seeing  cakeness this weekend for my baby shower and Maybe that means I'll have more arts to post in my scraps of things I've colored of her work.. Camera is out of commission and so I won't have any actual photography up till that gets situated. other than that Time for this bear to hibernate for a few more days.

Rainfurrest is in less than a week And I'm pretty sure that  Cakeness and I are stuck to staff crash as far as rooming goes but hopefully this will still be a fun experience for her and I.
I'm gonna be nearly 6 months pregnant *23 weeks* and I hope I am not worn out too much by the con. I will be Wearing  karmma 's Suit Sprinkles, well the partial at least and will be derping about while I'm not busy being a gopher. Find me if you can and say Hi.

In other news relating to my pregger self, I found out that I'm having a girl, she is healthy and has all her fingers and toes. She is very active and like to do flips and somersaults in my tummy, I hope this isn't foreshadowing her activity level for after birth, then again i was pretty wiggly as a kid myself so I guess it's payback for how i was with my mom and gramms lol.

As I have mentioned in some of my submissions in my scraps, I will be doing the colors on some of  cakeness 's art, mostly for commissions.. Once we have a set plan we can figure out pricing and hopefully get her some cash moneys and more watchers.

Last but not least I'm moving from the near seattle area to everett so yup..

that is about it on updates.

So like all furs I figured i should have a detailed worded description of my fursona.

So Kryssia is a Anthro Bear hybrid that hails from the midwest. She can be depicted with two different heights but is always digitigrade in legs. Her traditional form stands at 6'3 and her casual stands about 5'10 ( for suiting purposes lol) She is covered in layered fur with the under coat being a reddish cocoa and her over coat a lighter cinnamon so when wet she looks darker but dry she is a light golden to reddish brown. Her features are that of the American black bear vs the grizzly so she has a longer narrow snout and tall larger ears in proportion to her head. In addition to her head features she has growing out from the crown of her head right above her ears a set of short curved horns similar to a bison that are a dark grey to black. Her hands are a mix between bear paws and human hands so her fingers are stubby but still more elongated than a bear with short claws and finger and palm pads. Her legs are more narrow and muscular with a cloven hoof like that of a bison and her tail is a short tuft that lays somewhat flat against her bottom. She is more on the curvy side with more human breasts that size around an Fcup and wide hips and minimal pudge in the middle.

Her eyes are dark chocolate with golden flecks and streaks and her hair is cropped short messy and tom boyish.
Often she is found in a Black babydoll tee with a yellow Batman logo on it and shorts or capris ranging from denim to khaki. On cold days she can be found wearing a black umbrella corp zip up well worn jacket that is a little torn and old looking. and when feeling like being cosey she can be found wearing large button up onsie pajamas in animal or superhero patterns.
