another surgery update
Posted 10 years ago
hey all, surgery was completed at 10am on friday.
I got a fake tan with the antibacterial junk, asked too many questions to the nurses, hit on the anesthesiologist, and muttered about my ladyfrond and 'fuckboys' when I was coming to after surgery
hilarious, I know
I'm in a lot of pain, but at least I know I will slowly recover from it. Lots of air still in my body leftover from when they blew up my stomach to make room for the gall bladder removal, so I look like the pregnant chick sauntering around with my hands on my stomach, haha. It's been an interesting 24 hours.
I took the bandages off today and was met with a scary, tiny massacre. Though,
and her boyfriend took it upon themselves to name my soon-to-be scars:
bubbles, anthrax, kurt vonnegut jr jr, and shelly
shelly's the favorite.
anywho, I will try to get back to commission/YCH work this week once I can sit up comfortably. My main goal is to get better before school starts on the 17th, so fingers crossed.
ahhhhh, I can't believe I finally got surgery. everything hurts, but at least I don't have a swollen balloon under my ribcage.
BLESSED AND SUCH
I LOVE YOU ALL AND I'LL TRY TO BE BACK ASAP

SURGERY, SEE YOU ALL ON THE OTHER SIDE

surgery updates
Posted 10 years agosurgery is scheduled for august 7th which means only TWO WEEKS OF WAITING
today I called work to tell them I wouldn't be coming back for the rest of the summer. pleasantly met with concern and understanding WHICH WAS LOVELY GOSH MY COWORKERS WERE SO KIND. now I just have to start looking for a new job for the school year...which...is difficult with the weeks of recovery I'll have to tackle before I can commit to another job.
welcome to the strugglebus. population me and everyone else who has to deal with me
for now I'm just trying to take more YCHs to try to keep up with rent since I won't be working.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR ALL THE LOVELY COMMENTS AND KINDNESS! all this bedrest and waiting is the biggest inconvenience, but seeing updates from everyone is keeping me lively.

surgery, patience, and other general updates.
Posted 10 years agohello all!
and I just got back home from a 9-hour trip to the emergency room.
turns out all those bad vibes I've been feeling this week was just my gall bladder, doing it's thang. only NOT DOING IT'S THANG BECAUSE IT'S TRYING TO KILL ME. After a few days of slight pain, this afternoon finally proved that something was wrong. So after calling my mom and sister, the insurance company, and the hospital (and much yelling on my part since they constantly asked if I was just pregnant), we finally packed up some bags and went to the ER.
9 hours full of pissing in cups, being acquainted with too many needles, panic attacks over morphine, personal questions, and weird sleeping positions...........ended with them saying, "yo, your gall bladder is fucked dude. you need surgery. but like..........not here, yeh? call someone tomorrow. BYE."
so now I am back at home, laying in bed and emotionally worrying about my poor wee organ that just wants to make little pebbles to impress my liver (which is shockingly in great health, according to the doctor).
sigh. SORRY FOR THE RAMBLE.
I'm just trying to figure out whether I should be going back to work with all this stress on my body, and then whether or not I can schedule a surgery before school starts.
also, the patience of everyone would be BRILLIANT if I owe any art. I'm taking tomorrow (or today) off, so I will most likely finish any art owed and then decide whether or not to take a break from there.
may I also say that
,
and
are angels sent from some sort of top dog because when everyone else fell asleep on me, the three of them kept me sane and semi emotionally stable. you guys are all such a wonderful blessing. <3 <3 <3
ANTHROCON HAS COME TO AN END
Posted 10 years agoAnd I'm pretty overwhelmed by the experience, in far too many ways.
Living with the baes for a week left us laughing, crying, and memeing.





Sometimes I stop and think about how amazing this group of people are and how much they mean to me, and I can't find the words to express how I feel.
Because there are too many things to type (I'm sure pictures or videos will be available later), here are a few bullets on the week long adventure!
- met steedius and spent the remainder of the con fangirling over his beauty
- completed the skittles challenge
- harassed read and probably convinced her to never speak to me again
- successfully made furries feel uncomfortable by being those furries
- introduced our two nonfurry bffs to AC (they were terrified, then painfully into it)
- met fuckin RAMSEY BOLTON FROM GAME OF THRONES
- learned that canadians really hate canadian bacon (but they still love maple syrup)
- learned my spirit animal is a ladybug (then confirmed by a ladybug landing on me right after)
- successfully completed weekend goal of 'naked sauna time'
- touched lunar-epitaph 's boob (many times)
- suited for SO MANY RAVES
- woken up at 3am by asana beating the shit out of me because "there was a centipede in the bed"
- accidentally found herself in off-limits area at night and reenacted the blair witch project
- gossiped about korrasami to so many hot chicks (if you are on here ladies get at me)
- befriended joe the cab driver
- got kissed on the forehead by goonandthegallows #blessed
- watched sO MANY ORGASMS on an air mattress
- found zuko's honor
- swiggity swooty, we finally found the booty
- almost lost the car, found the car, almost got hit by a truck, made it home
- celebrated our return home with sheetz
- honestly I don't really remember much im so sorry
- the end
I ALSO MANAGED TO MEET SOME OLD AND NEW FRIENDS IN THIS TRAINWRECK OF A FANDOM!






and A MILLION OTHERS THAT I HAVEN'T SPOTTED ON FA YET. AHHHHHHHH!
This year, despite a few emotional hiccups that are solely my own doing, was everything I ever wanted and more! Though I am feeling drained, and I'm a little less than enthused to head back to work in 12 hours, it was all worth it.
Also, I'm hip now. I got a TWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTEERRR!

life update: how to tell your nonfurry gf about the fandom
Posted 10 years agoTL;DR: told nonfurry ladyfriend about the furries, she is shockingly into it and plans on tagging along to see the real deal at anthrocon this summer.
Two nights ago me, Pixel, her man, his roomie, and my ladyfriend went to a bar and gossiped and laughed and watched a comedy show and then meandered home (by meander I mean willyum found a golf club in a dumpster and hit numerous bottles on the way home and pixel and I diverged from the group to dumpster dive and make fun of dramatically intoxicated ladies until we found everyone again).
So we come back to our new apartment and we have another glass of wine and harass pixel until she proceeds to kick us out of her room. ladyfriend and I go into my room and.......pull out all my artwork of korrasami. that we concerningly oogle at until 2am. dtransition leads to me realizing I have to get up at 6am for my new bakery job, so we toss the wine and art and get ready for bed.
we gossip about past loves, family, sad things, happy things, and my dear friends that I visit in pittsburgh every summer. when she questions further on this pseudo vacation, I laugh and say "I'll tell you eventually. It's a lot to handle. If anything, you can ask my roomie about it over breakfast while I'm at work." this ends in her intensely interrogating me until finally, I give in. so, we sit up in bed and I laugh awkwardly and show her a picture of my friends in their fursuits. she is pretty quiet for a second, then matches my awkward laughter and says, "oh, furries?! wow. um. oh my god. this is....amazing, brilliant, yes! i can't believe this, but it almost makes sense. i've never actually looked into this more- do they really have sex in suits? and make animal noises? and and-"
the pile of questions basically went on for an hour, and after answering every strange thing she could think of, she was overwhelmingly on board with this strange new discovery. at 3:30am, we finally agree to go to bed until she sighs, "so, what animal would I be?" I then realize that I actually already HAD made her an animal - THAT LION LADY. I panic and laugh more, then show her the reff sheet and art I made of her character. she actually...tears up. "I'm just so...overwhelmed! Ahhh! IM NOT CRYING. This just means you think of me a lot and actually want to involve me in this extra part of your life? Oh my god."
after more talking and laughing and concerned questioning, we finally go to bed. the next morning pixel pokes her head in and I tell her that I told her all about the furries, which ends in her joining us in bed and continuing all our stories about our past furry shenanigans at anthrocon. it was...an interesting evening. i'm still a little overwhelmed how okay she is with all of this. no, scratch that, how INTO this she is. hahaha. oh my gosh. she may be a keeper after all.
thanks for reading this hilarious update!

turning 21 BITCHES
Posted 10 years agolet the lord be with me tomorrow on my birthday, and the new few days that will follow
life updates; the new year.
Posted 11 years agohello, my dearest lovelies:
TL;DR: We partied, we had a good time, I think I've grown as a person, and Korrasami.
I hope you all managed to ring in the new year as gloriously as my friends and I did. Despite a handful of hiccups, it was as wonderful as I imagined it, and even more. 2015, so far, has been so good to me and I pray it stays as positive for the remaining months.
I don't normally like to post about myself too personally on here, but I'm overwhelmed by how much I think I've grown as a person these past few months. I suppose a solid month without daily stressors can lead to someone really evaluating their life, and making changes to better themselves. This past month I have only made time for the truly important people; the people that make me feel like an actual happy human being, and not someone who just kind of...sucks.
I'm reconnecting with people I dropped because other people told me to, I'm spending more time pursuing my own amusements, I'm losing weight and working out again, and I'm actually DRAWING MORE THINGS THAT I ACTUALLY LIKE. I don't think I've been this happy and content in so long. Despite the stressful semester of school that is starting back up this week, I'm so completely okay and ready for it. I feel like I could take on the world right now.
Also, Korrasami is the best thing to start 2015 out with, and no one can convince me otherwise.
I am SO sorry for all the sappiness.
Until next time,
Zraya
today is actually the MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR
Posted 11 years agoIT'S THE TIME OF YEAR AGAIN!
(and finally, my sister
), and I are holding our wonderful new year's party. WHICH JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE THE BEST EXPERIENCE ANYONE CAN HAVE.
byob = bring your own boobs, butterfingers, and bologna
just kidding. we have all those... things here for everyone.
SEE YOU ALL IN 2015, STAY AMAZING.

12+ HOURS OF HENTAI LATER
Posted 11 years agoHELLO EVERYBODY:
I finally managed to sit down again with finals week starting, but this past weekend was spent with
,
, &
at the Sangawa Project outside of Pittsburgh!
It was a hot mess of classy booze, too many hours of hentai, a stalker military man, improv guitar songs, and PIIIIIZZZZZZUUUUUHHHHH.
But really, it was a great time with the lovelies we only get to see once a year (hopefully this tradition of twice a year catches on!) Forever heartbroken that my bae
wasn't able to come, but we had you in spirit! In more ways than one....OOOOOHHHHHH.
I saw Firelord Ozai at a panel and squealed, as well as drunkenly requesting a Legend of Korra themed song at a panel. I also did things in charades that I hope my children never have to see.
The hot tub was best though. *-*
AGH IT'S SO SAD TO BE HOME THOUGH. I DON'T KNOW HOW I WILL MAKE IT ANOTHER SIX MONTHS BEFORE I GET TO SEE EVERYONE AGAIN (I get to see Pixel every weekend so my heart will get over that.)
I hope all the students tackling finals currently get through them! YOU ARE ALL IN MY THOUGHTS.

Posted 11 years agoHello again, guys!
TL;DR: MY FELINE IS HURTING AND I WANT TO RAISE MONEY TO TAKE HIM TO THE VET.
I finally came home for the holiday after a year of being away and found my feline bestie in a state of...not necessarily neglect, but misery. Ever since I left for college three years ago, he's been sad but I always came to visit. However due to work I was not able to visit, and he's been depressed the entire time I've been away.
In this time, he has managed to sit around and not do anything day after day, even with my mom attempting to get him out of this problem phase.
Today I came home to find him with matted fur, claws grown into his pawpad (which my sister and I removed after a lot of numbing and neosporin and crying). Since his lungs are premature already and his sinuses are poor, he threw up blood when we tried to give him medicine. Even though we treated his paws and have been brushing out his knots, I'm still very worried for his health and potential depression.
This journal really has no point aside from me being sad and giving an update, but I'll probably be opening more YCH-auctions after I finish finals next week to raise money to send my mom so he can be a little better for the holidays. Forever miserable for my best friend.
I'LL KEEP YOU ALL UPDATED. SORRY FOR MY RANTING. I LOVE YOU ALL.

Posted 11 years agoHey, Guys!
Sooooo...I'm not very good at writing letters.
It's 7:47 in the evening.
Weather is fair.
Chance of snow showers later.
But enough joking around.
I hope you're all doing well.
Me?
I'm back on the Bistro.
Tanios has me staking out the chicken and rice hideout.
You won't believe what's going down...

Boobies, Updates, & Life
Posted 11 years agoHI GUYS~!
I haven't been too active on here this past week. Many apologies, it was bound to happen since class started. As I'm passing the half-way mark of the misery that is a college education, I'm finally starting to tackle big research projects in psychology! And despite the joking manner of my team, I secretly cross my fingers during our field work that the future is bright with possibilities of being published.
Enough of college chatter, no one wants to talk about school.
I've managed to befriend a handful of new furs in town (WHERE ARE YOU ALL COMING FROM?!) and attended one or two local meets. It's been amusing. I do miss the AnthroCon-esqe feel of the community, even if I'm hardly apart of it.
My newest, dearest friend,
is departing in a few days, and I AM QUIETLY SWEEPING UP THE SHATTERED PIECES OF MY HEART
IN DECEMBER I SHALL BE ONCE MORE REUNITED WITH 
&
with
in tote! Hotel-Con, we meet again. >:3
Aside from all those random updates, Pixel and I continue to quietly sit on my couch on the weekends and discuss whether or not we are persistently denying our attraction toward ladies. Immensely due to our unfortunate luck with buff asians, small wiener encounters, and arrogant attitudes. Good thing the gay bar is located a mere 2 minutes down the street!
Goodbye my dear ones, and until next time!
