Ding! I am officially +1 years old, woo! and my 8th year in this amazing community, gosh I love all of you so much! You've all brought me such amazing amounts of joy and meaning to my life, truly... this is where I belong. Being a dorky puffy toy and cuddled and all that stuff. <3

Words fail to truly capture my feelings, you guys have given me so many years of support, love, and acceptance that I couldn't ever have dreamed of having years ago. You are all absolutely amazing, and just know, at least one silly fluff has had their world transformed by the wonderful acts of all of you. So in that... thank you, thank you so much. ;w;

Hey everyone! I'm still alive I promise! internet connection where I live is not great, so that's limited my capacity to be around, also, May 24th I gain a level!

Been unable to shake this nasty depression I've carried all Winter, has sapped a lot of the love and fun most things have given me, hoping of course, I will be back to my usual normal self. ;w;

A BIG thank you to all of you for being supportive, loving, understanding, kind... just all around amazing! I'd not be here without you. <3

I'm coming back after dealing with two really horrid years in a row, I needed time alone, and was just too overwhelmed, with everything from the death of loved ones, to getting further into debt, various extra expenses, bad luck, and pretty much anything else one could think of. But here I am, I've survived, somehow... I can't say how I did, why I did, or what I did to do so, and I seem to soldier on, battered, broken, but not defeated.

To anyone here who still remains around, I hope 2018 will be the calm after the storm, the refreshing tranquility and beauty of seeing a rainbow, and looking back to see what you have endured, taking solace you've made it, that it gets better finally. Here's to hoping it does, I really could use it... for all those who also supported me financially in my withdraw from the world to nurse my wounds and focus on survival, you have my endless, eternal gratitude, for I would not be here without you.

I made it this far, lets see how much farther I can go!

Sorry for being inactive, dealing with my mom's cat in very poor health, my mom being sick, stress with life, and things more or less being troll-ish and difficult with nothing really working out. Once I feel like this storm of crap ends I will return more to proper activity, for now though... I feel really overwhelmed and depleted... :c

Also! I would like to extend a signal boost for  Der_Iracuse! they're a cool friend and offering story commissions for a good price! check them out!

I will be back soon probably, life doesn't have me down yet. :P

Hey everyone! been a pretty busy Spring so far goodness... barely any time to do stuff on here, so good news, got an apartment, won't be homeless! will be a bit broke for now but surviving! So all's good guys, huge appreciation for the support, I love all of you SO MUCH. <3 *Snuggles everywhere!*

Now, Birthday is in approximately two weeks from now [May 24], so early notice for you all! Keep being awesome everyone, you guys make life worth living and I honestly couldn't be happier in life, will be back when less busy, and done moving! :D

Hey everyone! want to apologize for lack of activity, focused primarily on selling my home to buy a much cheaper one, thankfully my house can sell for quite a premium so It's really just a waiting game. I spent the past several weeks preparing my home for selling so that I can finally move and NOT be crazy broke and barely feeding myself [which is very stressful]!

I will probably not be too active until further notice, but I will check in when I am able, thanks for sticking with me and supporting me, I love all of you a ton. <3

*Snuggles to all!*

Hello everyone, as you know I've been inactive a ton lately, and there's a good reason for that, my health is actually getting worse.

I don't want to make anyone feel pity for me, nor am I grabbing attention or anything. I've genuinely been struggling a lot up until now in virtually every aspect I can conceive, I'm broken inside and outside. I wish to apologize to everyone for not being around, acting possibly weird, distant or anything else out of the ordinary, It's not you so please do not blame yourselves, the past year has crushed my spirit, scrambled my mind, and broken my body.

I hope I can be a better friend to everyone who reads this, I want to make right what I've done, my resolution is to improve my health, tackle my mental issues and physical health issues, I want to actually be a better person for not just myself, but for the community as well. I wish all of you happy holidays and New Years, and if you don't celebrate anything in particular, I just hope the past couple weeks have been kind to you and that you've had time to be with those you love.

Seriously, I mean this when I say the following, this community, this fandom has really helped me in so many ways, you all continue to surprise me day after day. I'd be nothing without the support of the friends I've met here, and I cannot express enough the gratitude in my heart toward all of you. All I can hope is to continue to be worthy of the love, care, support and warmth the furry fandom as a whole as provided continuously without fail.

Out with the old, and in with the new, I hope to begin the year fresh and anew, to dust off the ashes of the disasters of last year, and build new, bright, fun memories and experiences this year. *Hugs to all.*

May I continue to be able to give back to all of you, thank you eternally.

Guess who's back!? yep, It's meeee~ Oh my gosh it was so horrendously rough to be so cut off from the world, I legitimately was losing my mind and falling apart day by day, I actually thought of suicide for the first time since I was a teenager, yikes... but thankfully I had some wonderful amazing friends to help me pull through!  Baphnedia was extremely kind and awesome to give me his old laptop which I am using right now to type out this journal! <3

Not much to say really! I'm alive again yaaay! Not much has really happened other than sleeping and going out to try to do anything to keep my mind off of thinking too darkly. It's great to be back and to see everyone again, currently working to try to get an actual PC built and running. For now though this laptop is a perfectly acceptable and suitable stopgap to get me back on and back to keeping in touch with all of you awesome folks! ^w^

I'll still be a bit busy as I'm currently trying to get all the parts and preparations for the aforementioned new PC, for now I want you all to know that I am back! And I will reply and poke back to everyone who poked during my lengthy absence when I am able, for now... whew... I am so stressed I need to sleep, I'm tired! @w@

*Snuggles everyone tight!* Love you all, and seriously I'd be in a hugely worse state of living without all of you making my life worth something. To give me a reason to get out of bed and face the day, to continue to exist and be a part of this world, and to bring me the joy and love I always wished I had, for that... I will always be eternally thankful and indebted to everyone I've met here who've stood by me, I honor it everyday. Not once did I ever stop thinking of all my dear wonderful friends~ <333

With that... my gray fox form is pretty much retired and discontinued, aside from maybe specific picture ideas, the new versions of me are the new me to draw just to inform you all~ I shall be slowly coming back into proper activity soon!

Hey everyone! I'm using my phone to quickly let you all know that my PC died since quite a few days now (a week at least? Longer maybe...) and I'm working on trying to rebuild a new one. This is where being stuck with CAD can suck a lot and I can't say when I'll be back unfortunately... sometimes when it gets bad... it can get pretty bad.

Now I'm not the type to ask for help as I usually feel way too guilty to, but I'm certainly not the type to refuse it when offered in serious need. Feel free to do so if you feel you must but please don't feel pressured to, I'll be okay in time and I hate to sound like I'm begging or burdening anyone. After all you know me by now I'm sure! I love to give, not to take, but in this scenario, I gotta tend to myself to ensure I'm on my paws again.

I could be gone for only a few days past this point, or it could be weeks, who knows? But know that even if life is being unexpectedly trolly right now, I love you guys and I really do cherish and treasure every comment, favorite and shout I get from you. You're all awesome and make me feel like a winner, even when it's hard to see the good in life.

I'll be back eventually, until then though... I'll be working hard to save up to rebuild a new PC.

Oh goodness... where do I begin here? so over the weekend I had my HDD with pretty much most of my data suffer a CRITICAL EXISTENCE FAILURE completely out of left field, and yeah... PC is dead... I hope someday to recover that data, won't be today sadly, or probably for a time.

So, worst news aside, the better news is that, thanks entirely on the part of this amazing community, I've had friends work immediately and swiftly to bring me back online. I had things purchased and given to me since I have no financial capacity to do anything to revive my PC [at least for probably a couple weeks], and would have been in seriously dire straits as I rely on PCs to do my online banking and bill payments and such.

I cannot properly and fully express how amazing everyone is, before I joined the fandom I had no outside help at any point in my life, often I had some seriously dire situations that ended very very badly as a result. But It's amazing folks like all of you that truly are a large chunk of the reason I get up and out of bed, you are all incredible and I love all of you, I hope to repay all of your kindnesses, I'm truly indebted for such amazing charity. <3

I 'should' be back online soon, hoping anyway, may you all continue being awesome and amazing! :D

Hey everyone, I remember people were sad face I never made it mentioned it last year, but... Birthday soon! And no, this Isn't me going "gift me things *hint hint*" either. [That's entirely up to you guys! friendship is already the best gift~ <3]

That being said! ... not much has happened, renovated my home last month which is why I suddenly dropped off the face of the planet there, and then basically slept and did nothing for a while after that. So yep! pretty boring standard things honestly, I love you all as always and this amazing community truly is the greatest gift I've ever gotten in my entire life, in fact, I could even say better than anything I could ever be given to be entirely serious! ^w^

Goodness I just realized... fifth Birthday as part of the fandom... It's really been that long huh? wow! And yet it feels like yesterday when no one knew I existed. Kind of really makes me think about life sometimes...

Edit: Oh yes, forgot to specify, May 24th to be exact. xD

Indeed I am! My FIRST CON EVER I will attend will be Furnal Equinox on the 20th [family working on the weekend, can't do the whole thing sadly], for anyone curious about wanting to find me. :P

Who else will be going there? perhaps I can manage to find you, and totally snuggle you to death greet you or something! I'm pretty darn excited, and it should be a pretty fun experience honestly, hoping of course nothing crazy happens! Definitely a thing I've wanted to try now for years but never could, luckily my family seems cool with the idea and so, looks like things are working out for once, hooray! :D

For anyone else going, hope you'll have fun too! *Hugs everyone!* Stay awesome. <3

First off, I wanna begin by saying: Taylor is really awesome and a wonderful friend, and I wanna help her out by advertising here on my journal, she has a lovely style and great price, I'd recommend checking her stuff out!

Details here: http://taylor.revasser.net/ http://taylor.revasser.net/Commissions https://www.weasyl.com/~tayruu

Hey everyone! a journal to announce I am still alive, if extremely busy, if I've been gone a lot, It's because holidays and family stuff, It's also because my Skype updated and effectively suffered death by update, so that's lovely! Gonna see about trying to slap on an old-old version that DID work... >w>

Anyways, rant over with that, Happy Holidays! whether It's Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Pancha Ganapati, Bodhi Day, Yule, or whatever else I can't think of that I am sure exists, or even none of those above and simply just do your own thing, chances are there's time off and you can derp around or whatever. :D Whichever it is, I hope you all have a great time! and I'll likely be back into things next year.

With that, I wish you a great rest of 2015, and here's to hoping 2016 will be a great year for us all, even better than all the others! :D *Gives big squeaky hugs to everyone!* I love you guys, stay awesome~ <3

I believe you all deserve an apology for how I've behaved lately, I am sorry if I've been distant, weird, really irrational, or anything else for that matter. I have been feeling really bad lately, and to those who know how I can be during the colder months, that is why.

So with that, I am sincerely sorry for my attitude and whatnot in the past few weeks, I am really glad you're all here for me, I can feel easily neglected and unimportant, even when people say and show they care, It's no excuse for me thinking otherwise, I hope I didn't upset anyone. *Hugs to all.*

Been poked about this quite a few times, hearing about how much better it is compared to Skype, so I tried it out! ... It's actually pretty nice! Feels simple and doesn't consistently suffer heart attacks like Skype does [oh gosh the errors I've experienced on it...] so that definitely piqued curiosity about it.

So then the natural thing to ask is, who here uses it? and who might be interested in contacting me there? If you'd like to keep in touch on Telegram for any reason [hopefully to be a friend!] then leave a comment, and I can tell you how to find me. :D

I'm still kinda taking a break, but I'll resume activeness properly around beginning of October. :3 *Hugs!* Thanks for sticking around guys, you're all great! ^w^

Hey everyone! I want to start off by saying I apologize, I know I've been basically dead on here save for the sporadic moments I can manage to pop on here. It's been Summer and with it brings AWESOME weather that I love and thus I tend to go outdoors A LOT, so I've only really peeked in briefly every few days generally.

That being said, I'm not dead, I'll just be kind of on a break from here, I'll still check on things here and there, and may upload a thing or two every so often, but I kinda need it, I've been pretty drained in terms of online stuff, and simply need some time to recharge for maybe a couple months, possibly less.

Seriously though, I'm still going to be around, so don't be afraid to poke me here, I appreciate and thank everyone for sticking with me, sorry for being boring. On the bright side, thanks to everyone for being super helpful with my Skype problem! I managed to find a workaround for that, really grateful for all the feedback everyone gave, I'd have been in dire straits without your help!

Alright, so it finally happened it seemed, Skype for me no longer officially works on my computer, It's dead. So if I've been invisible for a little while that's why, it simply doesn't even start at all, for everyone who uses it to keep in touch with me I apologize for that, I probably won't be using it either for a while, or ever again, not that it was terribly great anyway. I've spent a few days trying to get Skype to work and I'm done trying now, I promise I'm not ignoring anyone, sometimes this kind of thing happens. :c

That aside, I'm looking into a nice alternative that either can run a Skype account without running the client, or another program which offers similar features, or at the very least allows me to call people both in groups as well as one-on-one, in addition to your usual standard fare IMing. For anyone who knows of any services that offer these things I'd be happy to know please!

As usual, many thanks for taking the time to check this out, I love all of you! stay awesome! :D

Just as the title says, It's my birthday! [or creation day! x3], I have acquired an extra level once more! Thanks to everyone for making another year of my life a sweet and wonderful experience, here's to hoping my 26th year of existing on Earth will continue that trend and be a great year to come!

I appreciate every single one of you for all the things you've done for me, I don't know what I'd do without the loving folks I've met in the fandom, It's folks like you who make life better in ways literally nothing else could! So again, thank you all so much for everything. <3

Hey everyone, I'd like to start off by saying thank you to each and every single one of you for being wonderful folks who've supported me a lot through the good and bad times in my life, you all mean a lot to me, and trust me I mean that. :3

I also wish to apologize if I'm a bit slow on here, been busy periodically and I just have been taking little mini-breaks here and there, so for folks who have tried to get my attention, I hope you aren't mad at the delays [though I totally understand if you are, and if so my apologies for that].

Anyways, have any of you ever had moments in your life, where you might've been poked a few times by someone, or just happened to find people who shared a lot in common, and it kind of faded in a sense? I've felt pretty much like that's been happening a fair lot over the past several months for myself. I think I've been wasting my time and life with trying to be friends with the wrong people every so often [this is not aimed toward anyone in particular don't worry] and chasing after things that really just have no chance of working out. It's been kind of depressing me and I guess I had to get it off my chest after bothering me for weeks now, I'm not angry at anyone, or anything, but I'm just disappointed in myself and how clingy and attached I can be towards people, I love everyone a lot, I just feel like I'm not as good of a person as everyone likes to think I am or makes me out to be.

EDIT: It also makes me feel like a lousy crappy friend too, I feel rotten inside when I think I said the wrong words or did the wrong thing and somehow I offended or ruined a friendship because of my stupidity or negligence. I wish if people didn't have an interest in me, they would make it very clear and direct, I like to be treated with honesty over being given the more fake "sugar-coated" treatment to make me "feel better", which it doesn't in the end.

That being said, I've felt overall much happier and I think I actually have a lot of luck in my life despite those things. I hope to keep my old friends, while making new friends as well, I'm grateful for everyone who sticks by me and puts up with me, I hope to be able to repay that someday. *Hugs everyone.*

Stay awesome everyone! ^w^

Hey everyone! so I am finally back for really real after the crazy complications and stress we call the holidays, It's been stressful and tiring, we've have had a quickly escalating bill of problems with the car that, alongside the festive expenditures of gift giving and such, has caused a lot of needless grief.

That being said, everything is quite well! I needed the break to tend to life and just recuperate after all was done and wrapped up, I am okay, so please don't worry, I am confident I will bounce back from things, and I plan to regularly upload again probably in a day or two. I hope everyone has been well, and I love all of you a lot, never, NEVER stop being awesome and being who you are, you're all amazing. :D

*Squeakyhugs for all who want them!* ^w^

No matter if you celebrate anything, or whatever you celebrate during this time of the year, it is definitely an important time for many, and I want to wish everyone a great and wonderful holiday season, and may the new year be even better in every possible way too!
For every single one of you are an incredible treasure and so awesome, thank you for being in my life, for sticking by my side through the best and worst, and for simply just existing, because all of you matter, always. *Gives great big hugs to everyone.*

I've also been incredibly busy for the past couple weeks, hadn't had much time online and even less time free, sleep has been pretty sparse and I hope to catch up on it. :P
But! I will be back sometime within a week or so from now, as I'll still be kinda busy for another couple days at least. x3

Hey guys, sorry if I've not been terribly active for the past month or two, I wanna make sure that everyone knows I am still alive for reals! Been busy with both life, and just lack of motivation following the colder time of the year, It's hard to wanna do things when depressed, but I do try to push myself when I can.

I really hope I didn't worry anyone, I will be trying to be more active when I can, thanks for sticking with me guys, you're all awesome! :D *Hugs everyone!* I hope you all had a good Halloween for those who celebrate it, even if that's late hehe, and of course, hope you all have been doing great. :3

Hey everyone! I am back now, after days of busy work, moving, cleaning, and a bunch of other stuff, I AM FINALLY BACK! oh my goodness, I am so happy everything is done now... er, mostly anyway. :P

I should be back to normal here, I pretty much slept over half the day twice! I was just entirely exhausted, I am really not good at physical labor whatsoever! Also the internet was delayed, which was rubbish and I didn't like that at all, minor-ish things aside, I am glad this is all over, I've missed everyone SO MUCH, you have no idea. xD

*Gives everyone big hugs!* That aside, how has everyone else been holding up since? :3

Hey everyone! some great news, finally got a place to go to JUST in time, so I've been very busy packing in the past few days, and will be not too active online until sometime after the beginning of August, like maybe the 3rd or 4th or something.

With that being said, I do apologize if I've been hard to contact due to circumstances and life and stuff, I'm really glad for all the support and compassion shown, really helps me through those hard times, I'll be sure to be around more once life settles down! That aside, how has everyone been? hopefully the Summer's been rather enjoyable so far, and that everything has been alright. :3

*Hugs everyone!* Love you all, and thank you so much! ^w^

Also, please feel free to check out  Agentxy14 's artwork if you'd like, he has some cute, fun, and amusing stuff over there! As well as  ZombieTiny she's offering very nicely priced commissions currently, very worth checking out. :3
