Go check this out guys! Mushimagic is raffling off a set of ears + tail + handpaws + feetpaws for her birthday! Talk about super cute ;w;

WAH okay so this is the absolute CUTEST movie I have seen in a LONG time. It is called "Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki" or, "The Wolf Children: Ame and Yuki". It's the story of two children growing up with their human mother, but their father is a wolf. It's really really really adorable and the animation is absolutely STUNNING and GORGEOUS. I really love the plot line, too, and the characters are all lovely and the story dynamic. I definitely recommend it to everyone <333

SO my plans fell through with the AC room I was supposed to be in, so I'm looking for someone who possibly has room for me and my girlfriend  rohawk. We're both quiet and friendly, over 21 so we might go out and get a drink but we'll respect the rules of whoever is hosting the conroom. We're not obnoxious party drinkers, and generally get along pretty well with everyone.

Post or note me if you have anything available or know anyone that might. <3333 Thanks bbs~

Hey everyone!

Well, I'm moving again, but this time it's a bigger move than I've made for a while. I'm moving in with my girlfriend after over a year of long-distance relationship, and we're moving to New York.

And New York is a loooong way away from Alabama lol.

So I'm trying to sell a bunch of items I won't need, because I've decided to pretty much bring just the clothes on my back with me. I'll be selling my furniture locally, so if anyone is in the Huntsville/Madison area or nearby and needs cheap furniture, note me! Selling dressers, bookshelves, couches, tables, TVs, lamps, etc.

Also have several musical instruments that are for sale, about five electric and acoustic guitars (some bass guitars, too), trumpets, and a marching baritone. I might be willing to part with my didgeridoo, too. Note me for pics and prices for those. :]


ANYWAY! Let's just get to the good stuff, eh?

That is when my girlfriend's plan will be on the ground and she will be HERE. HERE. WITH ME. FINALLY. FJkdslfjKSLfjkdslf <333333


brb swooning

Awww yeah, just preregistered. |D




I LOVE CONVENTIONS WHY CAN'T I GET TO GO TO MORE OF THEM /SOBLIFESTORY





old friendssssss I really hope everyone will be there again this year because I love you all yes <33333

====1. Are looks important in a relationship?
Not in a relationship, but I don't think I'd be in a relationship with someone if I wasn't attracted to them in some way or another.

====2. Are relationships ever worth it?
Good, healthy, and mature relationships are always worth it. <3

====3. Are you a virgin?
Good question ;D

====4. Are you in a relationship?
Oh why yes I am <3

====5. Are you in love?
Yes.

====6. Are you single this year?
.....what. I think I'll answer this as a 'no'?

====7. Can you commit to one person?
Yes, and I expect the same out of any partner I have lol.

====8. Describe your crush/mate
My girlfriend is lovely. <3 She is kind, caring, smart, generous, loving, emotionally mature (WAS A BIG THING FOR ME because I have been in shitty relationships because of how immature the other person was), likes it when I get mushy/cheesy, gorgeous, sweet, talented, independent, and pretty much everything I've ever wanted. Except she's far away and that makes me 8(

====9. Describe your perfect mate
See above ^^

====10. Do you believe in love at first sight?
Nope.

====11. Do you ever want to get married?
I would like to. <3 I really like the idea of spending my life with someone.

====12. Do you forgive betrayal?
I think any 'betrayal' stems from a lack of communication. I am SUPER BIG on communication in all of my relationships, and I want to be clear, upfront, and mature about my feelings, wants, and needs. Other partner cheats? They feel they aren't getting something from their relationship. Lies? They feel like they can't or aren't able to communicate something. If something else happens for no reason then... I don't know how I'd deal with it, honestly.

====13. Do you get jealous easily?
Not really.

====14. Do you have a crush on anyone?
Nah, I'm a pretty one person kind of girl.

====15. Do you have any piercings?
My ears are pierced =P

====16. Do you have any tattoos?
Threeeeee lol.

====17. Do you like kissing in public?
Sure, but I'm not going to make out with anyone in public.

====20. Do you shower every day?
YES.

====21. Do you think someone has feelings for you?
Well I'd imagine my girlfriend does lol

====22. Do you think someone is thinking about you right now?
She's asleep, but maybe dreaming of me? :///3

====23. Do you think you can last in a relationship for 6 months and not cheat?
Yes. I've never cheated on anyone and most of my relationships are longer than 6 months.

====24. Do you think you'll be married in 5 years?
UM. I have no clue. Maybe?

====25. Do you want to be in a relationship this year?
I'm glad I'm in the relationship I'm in right now <3

====26. Has anyone told you they don't want to ever lose you?
Lol. An ex. A crazy, manipulative, and emotionally abusive ex.

====27. Has someone ever written a song or poem for you?
I've written a song for my girl, does that count? x3

====28. Have you ever been cheated on?
99.9% positive yes, by the last person I dated.

====29. Have you ever cheated on someone?
Never.

====30. Have you ever considered plastic surgery? If so, what would you change about your body?
I've fleetingly considered gastric bypass, but never really seriously. I have seriously considered laser hair removal. I'm pretty self conscious about my weight, and really self conscious about my body hair. I have PCOS, which leads to an imbalance in male to female hormones, so I have a very high amount of androgen/testosterone, which makes my body hair thick and dark and gross.

====31. Have you ever cried over a guy/girl?
Yes. :I

====32. Have you ever experienced unrequited love?
Yeah. It kind of sucked big time.

====33. Have you ever had sex with a man?
Not vaginal sex. I messed around in high school as a teenager, but was always kind of EH about sex with boys (read: in lesbian denial). SO.

====34. Have you ever had sex with a woman?
BD

====35. Have you ever kissed someone older than you?
Yup.

====36. Have you ever liked one of your best friends?
Currently dating one of my best friends. I tend to date friends more than strangers because I don't date people I don't know lol.

====37. Have you ever liked someone who your friends hated?
Kind of? My friends certainly hated my last girlfriend after everything she put me through.

====38. Have you ever liked someone you didn't expect to?
Yes.

====39. Have you ever wanted someone you couldn't have?
Mmmm not really. I have a personal rule to never like/go after girls in relationships already or those that are straight. Kind of negates all of that lol.

====40. Have you ever written a song or poem for someone?
Awww yes, my current lover. <3

====41. Have you had sex so far this year?
Nope. Taking things kinda slow with my girl atm.

====42. How long can you just kiss until your hands start to wander?
When it changes from a kiss to a make-out session lol.

====43. How long was your longest relationship?
Two and a half years.

====44. How many boyfriends/girlfriends have you had?
UM. LET ME THINK. 3 boyfriends and 4 girlfriends? Have dated exclusively girls since my senior year in high school though when I actually acknowledged to myself I was gay (although one was transgendered, so physically male, but she was my girlfriend).

====45. How many people did you kiss in 2011?
UH. WELL, since I doubt parental cheek kisses count, zero. >_> I need kisses. ASAP. Someone fly my girlfriend to me now plzkthx.

====46. How many times did you have sex last year?
NONE. HNG.

====48. If the person you like says they like someone else, what would you say?
I'd... probably be kind of devastated? Because I really... I really adore my girl but I'd respect her feelings if she wanted to end our relationship because she liked someone else. But I would be pretty freaking sad, I think.

====49. If you have a boyfriend/girlfriend, what is your favorite thing about him/her?
Please see question number 8 <333333

One of my best friends and I were talking about going in together to buy a resin kit, and I was wondering if anyone had any advice for handling and using resin? The first kit I think we're mostly going to use as an experiment, but if we produce anything particularly awesome, well, that'll be cool too! I was thinking I might try my hand at making art dolls and see how that goes, not sure what she had in mind, however. :3

Aaaah fatty chick with short wavy hair, probably in jeans and a tshirt or suiting in my blue pit partial, Billie. C:

Where/how can I find you?
PROBABLY running around with the gang or checking out all the things. xD We move around a bunch, mostly in the dealers den or artist alley or [strike]on the street corner[/strike].

How are you getting there?
Drivingggggg about 11 hours from north Alabama lol.

Who are you staying with?
THE REST OF THE COOL KIDS, DUH.

...so I'm never really sure on what our rooming block is until we get there, but I can bet the regular faces will be there! :D

What hotel are you staying at?
UH that super nice one that's like four blocks from the convention center. xD I forget what it's called rofl.

Which days will you be attending?
Aaah probably Thursday afternoonish through Sunday night <3

Do you do requests?
Probably only for roommates during art jams or something fff!

Do you do trades?
Possibly! Kinda picky about them, but it never hurts to ask, I suppose. :3

Do you do commissions?
Definitely! Only traditional at the convention, though. I don't have an artist alley slot, so you'll probably have to find me running around the con or via one of my roomies or something if you want one.

Will you have prints, CDs, or merchandise?
Naaaah~

Will you have Art in the Art Show?
Nope.

Who will you be with?

FRIENDS ONLY PLOX. I like to initiate hugs with other people most of the time, so if I don't know you really well, just ask first! :'D

Can I hang out with you?
Sure! Just sort of the same rules as above. Friends get to bug me 24/7 during con, but if I don't know you, just ask! Probably won't say no or anything, ahaha.

Do you go to parties?
There's a party in my pants ;D
No, I'm kidding. xD Not much of a party goer, much prefer to hang out with close friends versus going out anywhere.

Do you fursuit/costume?
YES. I will probably be suiting quite a bit around AC in my partial !

Anything else?
I am SO EXCITED you guys have no idea ;v; fjdkslafjddj <3333333333

Ohgoshohgoshohgosh!

Back from my first FWA, and let me just say I had an AMAZING time! ;v; It was superduper great meeting everyone I hadn't met before and seeing the faces I'd been missing. <3333 I'm so VERY EXCITED that Billie's head is completed, and it looks FANTASTIC! I will be posting pictures of it asap.

I can't wait to go again next year! :3

Hi all! I was wondering if there were any local/nonlocal furs going to RCF this year. :D it'll be my first time at there myself, and I'm hoping to try and get a room at the hotel. If noone else is going, I'll probably just drive every day anyway, but it'd be nice to hang with others. :3

So if anyone's interested in getting a room together, let me know!

8D aaaaaaah! Well, technically have been on the way for about five hours, but there is a shitlod of traffic and construction omega. What was a four hour drive has turned into a six hour+ excursion. Car started acting up around b'ham, but it was just low on fluids.

But omg I am so excited djskwofiudsjwiefuec

COME FIND ME I will be roaming around in a blue pitbull partial made by  foofur 8D

UPDATE AGAIN: Little male puppy passed away during the night. :C Unsure why, but I was checking on him and mama every hour or so, and sometime between 2 and 3 am I woke up and he was gone.

RIP Little Grim. </3




UPDATE: Little girl passed away about an hour ago. :[ I think Sammy was too overzealous getting her placenta off, and there was a perforation where the umbilical cord met her belly. Between leaving my house and getting to the vet, she passed away.

RIP Little Ghost. :[




As of this morning, I have two baby grandpuppies, one male and one female. ;v; They are 3/4 APBT 1/4 Labrador Retriever~

UPDATE:

Sammy's eaten a bit and had some water, but still isn't very interested in food right now. She's lost about two or three pounds so far. If she looses more than five, I'll really start to worry. Her temperature's down a bit, but she still has a fever. The medicine makes her even more lethargic than she was, and all she wants to do is lay down and sleep. I have to pick her up and carry her outside to go potty or eat or drink. She breathes easier when she's sleeping, but when she's awake she wheezes and coughs sometimes. :[

She's all bundled up on my bed sleeping next to me. </3 I love this dog, I really hope she feels better soon.

And I want to take the time to thank everyone who's donated so far. <33333 I received roughly half the amount I need overnight and I'm just... I'm overwhelmed by people's kindness. You are all amazing and I just... fjdksl I love each and every one of you.

I also want to point out that I am open for commissions, if people are interested in commissioning me to help out instead of donating and want to pay in advance. I'll be doing something nice for everyone that donates either way, but any help is wanted and highly appreciated. <:]

My dog Sammy has been sick over the past few days, just being lethargic and coughing and dry heaving. So this morning, I scheduled a vet appointment for tomorrow, and planned to bring her in then to have her checked out.

Well, we didn't make it that far.

Around four, she started being /very/ lethargic and not even wanting to stand up, and getting snappy towards another dog (and she has NEVER EVER EVER snapped or shown the slightest bit of aggression towards anything). At that point I was super worried and my mom told me to call the vet and plead and see if they could see her tonight on short notice. Well, they did, and we went while the vet tried to diagnose her. They were pretty sure she might have Parvo, but my Mom (who is a humane educator and has worked with animal shelters for almost fifteen years total) has seen a LOT of Parvo and was like 'no, not even.' So we denied testing for Parvo, but checked her for parasites. Nothing on that end either, so they gave her some subq fluids and sent us home.

So we left the vet with only a short list of things she didn't have, pockets $100 lighter.

I went to work a few hours later, still worried, and Mom kept a close eye on Sammy while I was gone.

Around 11, Sam began having a very difficult time breathing. I don't know how bad it was, but she's breathing hard now and Mom said it was worse then. So she drove her out to the emergency vet clinic and had her admitted. She had a fever of about 103.6 (102 being normal, and 104 being cause for emergency). Mom had a feeling she might have an intestinal or stomach blockage (due to her dry heaving, but not throwing up), so she asked for an X-ray.

It turned out that Sammy wasn't actually dry heaving, she was attempting to hack up fluid from inside her lungs. Her left node is very swollen with fluid, and they diagnosed her with pneumonia, but not bad enough that she needed to stay at the emergency vet. They gave her some antibiotics and a nebulizer to hopefully fight off the infection and help her recover.


However... this leads me to do something I haven't before...


Sammy's vet bills total around $600 to treat her pneumonia, and that is $600 I honestly... don't have. So I'm asking for any donations, or even to spread the word so that I can hopefully pay for her vet bills. I'll get down on my knees and beg if I need to, this dog is my life and love. Maybe it's silly, but I've had her since she was eight and a half weeks old and raised her (she is almost two now, still very young), and she is my child in all but blood (and species). I'd be devastated if anything happened to her, and not being able to afford treatment and medications so that she can get better is just... unimaginable.

So please. If anyone would be possibly willing to help, I don't even know that I can begin to express how much it would mean to me and the amount of gratitude I would have. My paypal is kawaiiyoukai15[at]aol.com , or even just spreading the word would be so appreciated. ;;

Thank you everyone...
