Thanks everyone for your views...I ended up just making a new account to save the $15. Also thanks for the name suggestion. Here's what I ended up going with:

This will be my last post on this account. I'm not gonna delete anything because I want to keep it as a record, in case I want to come back and look at anything I wrote on a certain occasion or whatever. I'll be working on re-adding everyone after school today, as well as making a post asking people if they'd like to be added to my filters (since I'll obviously have to re-create those).

Admit it...do you sing in the shower?

I'm a dork. I have my iPod stereo hooked up in my bathroom, on the counter, and I listen to my iPod on shuffle while I'm showering and sing along. XD It's when I sing my best! rofl

In June of 2008 I was commissioned by Don (whom I was only friends with at the time) to draw a digital badge. He paid me, I drew it, and we agreed to meet up at a local anime convention the next week so I could give it to him. This was the first time he and I ever met in RL, and our friendship only grew after that until he asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes on July 10th.

Now, almost an entire year later, we're still together. That convention is coming up again so I thought it'd be a cool idea to re-draw the badge that brought us together. I'm so happy with how much I've improved in a year, and while I know Don will never throw away the first badge I'm glad he'll have something...better....to wear this year. ;)

Love you, babe. <3

In other news, forever ago I was commissioned by my now-buddy sigmawolf21 to draw him some concept art for a fursuit he wanted. I helped him design it (though he made some changes afterwards, which made it even more awesome) and then the wait began. Today, Furr Happens finished Sigma's suit and HOLY CRAP does it look awesome! I know it isn't /my/ suit but there's an amazing feeling knowing that my art was used to help make that. Eeee. Congrats, Sigma! <3 I want pics someday! ;)

I still owe these people a badge from TFF:

9) Sugar (for Stria)
11) Amara
12) VVolf
14) SilentPhantom
16) Dev Raccoon
17) Glass Ferret
18) Comter
19) Romani
21) Skittles (for Crys)
22) Skylor

But honestly, I don't think the badges will ever be done. However, I'd feel bad having said I'd draw y'all something and then not doing it, so if any of you still want art I'm willing to do digital icons instead of badges (because I finish digital art A LOT faster than traditional art).

SO. If you're on that list and would like an icon instead comment here again with your ref and I'll get those done in between other stuff I'm working on (since the other things I owe are sorta on hold right now, while I wait for the people to give me their refs/information/etc).

Example of what you'd be getting: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2240717

I have a giftie for you! :D

You always draw me stuff so I wanted to return the favor.
Plus, you have, like, no art of TwinBee and he's my favorite of your characters. <3


ALSO, Hugemongous thanks to unsolvedsuicide for inspiring me to do a few things differently, mainly the line variation. <3 I do that with my traditional art, but I've never tried it with my digital stuff because I figured it'd take too long and I'm lazy...LOL. But HOLY COW am I happy I did. I can't believe the difference just changing the lineart made. :D -really really happy-

A lot of my friends have been down in the dumps lately, dealing with a lot of crap (which I totally understand). So, for all of you guys...even if you don't like country music just listen to this:



-hums it- It's a good way to look at things, eh? But, then, my life motto has always been that everything that happens happens for a reason. That's why I have trouble staying mad about anything for long...I guess it just doesn't feel worth it, to me. Sure, I get depressed and wanna mope about...but everything passes eventually.

Brevi tempore omnia praeteribunt.
In a short time, all will pass.

random gift for jilduck :

No comments on the bad quality, please. Both my dancing and the video quality suck, but I really don't care...I was just being stupid. xD

Hey guys, I've spent a few hours today spiffing up the Best Paw Forth website. Mostly just updating photos and pages and the like, as well as a bit of the text. Looks quite a bit better now. However, before I can update either of your bio pages I need some better photos of Moxie and Blox (and Pen Collie, if you want her added as well) that don't have other people in them. Can you link me to a few so I can update your pages? :D

Seriously. Please go look at this...you won't be disappointed. XD

I was seriously cracking up laughing when I was watching the real video.
It's almost too ridiculous to be real. XD

EDIT.
OMG. HE REMINDS ME OF NEVEL. XDDDD
(from iCarly) lawwwwwl

Price: $10 (one character each)

SLOTS:
1. Swift Fox
2. neobesitz
3. open
4. open

Yesterday was absolutely awesome. The interview thing for the school newspaper went really well and everyone liked Milkyway and kept asking how she was made. I came home from school to find FLOWERS from Don, which really made me smile (I'll get a photo or two for myself later, and post them here if anyone wants to see). <3 Also got Prom tickets for myself and Don, after waiting in line for over 30 minutes through the chaos. Yay!

And TODAY...I checked the UPS website and Melody is out for delivery so she'll be here sometime today (hopefully around the time I get home...I'd hate for the box to sit on my porch all day D8). I'm going to Don's house today after he gets off work. He needs to fix a tear in the crotch of black and white bodysuit (from stretching too far...oops!) so we can get photos of Melody tonight. :D

So yeah. Yesterday was really good, and I get the feeling today is gonna be just as good. -tail wags-

I have been working my ass off trying to get Angie's aussie head done before school today so I could use /that/ head for the school newspaper photo thing instead (because 1. the colors would show up better and 2. it looks better lol). I just finished the ears and I was about to go make the eyes, the only thing left to do (apart from the spots, but those can wait)...and it occurred to me that most of my fursuit-making supplies are at Don's house. Including my buckram and plastic bowls. GAH.

I guess I'll be taking Milkyway instead. xD Ah well. BUT HEY, Angie! Good news is, your head WILL be done today. Bad news is...I can't finish it until Don can come over and bring my plastic bowls and buckram. I'll take an eye-less photo for you, though, when I get home from school today. :) She's looking cuteeeeee.

I'll be working on a final icon for Borderdog who traded me a few Prisma markers for icons, and then, MAYBE, working on furring Angie's aussie after that (depending on how I'm feeling). So yea...come chat with me! D: I'm kinda "bleh" right now so I could use the company.

I know there's no way in hell I'm going to win considering who I'm up against, but ah well...no fun in going down without a fight! ;) Might as well join in the fun with a mock political poster of sorts.

Don bought himself a tablet a few weeks ago but he never draws, so he let me borrow it to play with. Yes, I'm aware I said I hated tablets but I doodled with it and now I like it. D: OH GOD, I'VE BEEN CONVERTED. -goes to cry in a corner and draw sheefs-

THE TRUTHORDARE MEME

DO EET!

Scarborough was alright. We only got to stay for 2 hours, though, because Don had work stuff to do. :/ While we /were/ there, though, we only got to see one show but it was HOLY CRAP AWESOME. :D And I suited almost the entire time (except during the show, so I could see :P), and got really mixed reactions...a lot of "what the...!?" expressions, one or two people were like "oh god...furry", and a lot of people liked the suit and wanted photos. The weird thing is...everyone thought I was a fox! A few people guessed wolf so I guess that's atleast a little closer, but still...fox!? WTF!? How many gray and brown, semi floppy-eared, SPOTTED foxes do /you/ know, eh? :P Ah well....atleast most of the /kids/ got it right lol.

Cute moment of the day: a little kid saw me from behind and asked her mom "Can I pet the doggy?" and his mom replied "I don't know, you'll have to ask the doggy." and smiled at me, so I knelt down so and the kid started to pet my muzzle but then she just stopped and went into a full-out hug. It was cute. X3

Found out I won't get Melody until probably this weekend, or maybe later, because of weather stuff where Jill0r lives. D: Booo! Ah well...I paid her for 3-day shipping (it was only $11...yay cheap shipping!) so hopefully the weather will only last a day or two. Oh, /and/ I guess that'll give Don and I extra time to play around with different paw ideas (I'm considering a new pair of handpaws for Melody, made completely of fleece). :3

Atleast today is gonna be a lot better than yesterday (I had a pretty bad day yesterday). Don is off work, so he's picking me up from school and we're going to IHOP. :D PANCAKES!! -glee-

(CLICK FOR FULL-VIEW!!)

:D She's doooone! And another cute picture with a bodysuit/paws/scarf that aren't mine that the maker took, just for fun (Melody's real bodysuit and paws will be Milkyway's with a different tail...I'll get photos of her on /me/ when she gets here next week). Eeee! She's PERFECT! Jill0r did such an awesome job sticking to the concept art (ie, the shorter muzzle, big nose, and the ADORABLE ears). And the hair tuft looks a lot better than in my concept art, so I'm glad for that. xD Overall? I'm EXTREMELY happy. :D :D :D

Thank you so much, Jill0r! I can't wait to get her. -glee-

BONUS!!
A cute, silly video Jill0r upload to YouTube of her wearing Melody (once again, with /her/ bodysuit/paws/scarf, not the actual one's that will be used with her): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk7LssNwFb4

I'm really excited. My school newspaper does a thing near the end of the year called "10 Most Interesting Seniors", and one of my friends who is on newspaper (she's one of many who takes photos) let me know that I've been chosen as one of them because the teacher herd I make mascot costumes! :D And, right on que, I got a note a few periods later friend the newspaper teacher with all of the information (when I need to be there, what I need to bring, etc). I and the other 9 will be excused from 3rd period next Thursday to get our photos taken, and I'm gonna bring Milkyway since the note said to bring "something that symbolized [my] personality and makes me interesting and can be used in the individual photograph". bwhahaha!

NOW. This may not sound like a huge deal but my school newspaper isn't a small thing. It's HUGE. We have local business ADVERTISING in it it's such a big deal, and it actually looks like a /real/ newspaper with a sports and entertainment sections and etc related to our school and some global things. So I'm SERIOUSLY excited to have been chosen as one of ten (out of A LOT of kids...my school has over 3,500 kids in it) to be in this. :D I'll scan a copy when I get the finished thing. -glee-
