Yep, its official. I'm 39 years young. It's crazy to think I started posting here when I was 19, and now I'm proverbially seconds away from stepping on the landmine that is forty. Just wild how fast time can pass you by. Anyways, enjoy every cheeseburger, don't take the good things in life for granted, and shop smart, shop K-Mart!

With FA's future uncertain I've decided to set up shop on some other websites just in case. The alternatives to FA are pretty bad, so I'm not super happy with my choices, but they will have to do for now.

It's that time of year again. That special day where people ambush you with flaming cakes and demand you extinguish them immediately while they clap and chant that most ancient of Pagan incantations

the Happy birthday. Oh, the HORROR!!!

Yup, I've been dragged kicking and screaming one step closer to forty and no sir, I don't like it. My hair is getting gray, my eyes are going bad, all my music is on the classic rock station, and I find myself constantly complaining about these damn kids today. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go buy a rocking chair XD

Hello one and all! Now first thing's first, I want to give a great big welcome to all my new followers! Thanks so much for liking my strange cast of characters. All of my followers keep me motivated to make more content. I appreciate each and every one of you to no end, and even if i don't always reply to your comments I read every single one, so keep them coming!

Ok, on to my next topic, the year of the rabbit! If my first post of the year isn't a big enough hint, you're going to be seeing a lot of Delila and Jerry this year. Don't worry, Michelle and the rest will be making appearances as well, don't worry, but Del and her hubby will be stealing the show for sure. So buckle up buckaroos, were entering bun country!!

Yes it's that magical time of year once again. I turn a year older, my hair turns a bit grayer, and I sink deeper into that grumpy middle aged mode where I don't understand these damn kids today, can't remember what I had for breakfast and constantly start sentences with "Back in my day."

Hope everyone has a great day today and have a slice of cake, but not my cake. I'm not sharing!!!

Oh boy, another year older! More cake! Will I get socks this year? Really hope I get socks. They keep my feet warm.

Anywho have some birthday pics! Enjoy the tums because ya aint getting my cake.

I want to thank everyone who faved, commented, followed and enjoyed Ratcember. I was really nervous that this idea would be a dud but your overwhelming response quickly put that to an end. We've all endured such a miserable year and I hope 31 days of round squeakers made 2020 end on a slightly more positive note for you.

As for the future of Ratcember I don't think my wallet will tolerate another commission spree like the one I've been on this year, but if folks would like this to become a yearly tradition and want to chip in for next year leave a comment down below. Let me know your thoughts.

I wish each and every one of you a happy new year! Stay strong, stay positive, make the best you can of every day and always remember that every cloud has a silver lining.

Since it's the year of the rat and I happen to love round ratties I've decided to devote every day this December to posting a Michelle pic or story. Like an advent calendar, only much sexier, and I encourage all of you to spread the holiday cheer with a big bellied rat of your own. So stay tuned! Its going to be a Ratcember to remember ^^

Thanks to all of you who donated Ray has been able to pay off his debts and save his home and belongings! To all of you who took the time to read this, to those who spread the word and chipped in what you could I thank you. We did a great thing together :)

Hello folks.

This year has been hard on all of us and Ray Dobbs has been hit particularly hard. They've been a part of the furry fandom as far back as i can remember and now they are faced with losing their home and everything they have ever owned or created. https://www.facebook.com/ray.dobbs......57547097637434

Please consider donating to this pregnancy growth drive that Beuwen has started: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38874950/

Every penny raised will be going to help Roy pay off his debts. Any amount helps, no matter how small. Lets come together in this time of hardship and division and make a difference in someone's life.

Since its the year of the rat ive been wanting to do something special with Michelle, it is her year after all. If i was to offer a few adopts of her grown up children and a growth drive would there be any interest? Let me know in the comments and if i get a good response i will see what i can do.

Leaving a comment like "I'm frightened that people find this attractive" or "WTF" is not constructive criticism. Its being an ass. If you dont like what i write or commission thats fine, but leaving comments like this is not. If anyone would like to do so in the future you will be BLOCKED. I dont need to put up with the entitled opinions of children.

If you have ever read one of my stories id love to know why. What did you like, what could have been changed, what should i improve on? A writer thrives or fades away based on the feedback they receive and i don't seem to get much at all. Its discouraging, i wont lie, and recently I've been thinking seriously about stopping entirely and just posting commissioned art from time to time. So i figured before i make a decision one way or the other i should at least make an attempt to find out what, if anything, people see in my writing.

If you told me thirteen years ago when i first started posting on FA that one day i'd have a little over one thousand people watching me and enjoying the hi-jinks of my strange albino rat and her friends i'd never believe it. Here we are though, and i'm still in a bit of shock XD

Thank you to everyone who comments and faves my stuff, to everyone who likes my writing. You guys keep me motivated to do more and i have a lot of plans for the future, so keep an eye out!

To celebrate this milestone i'm going to upload a few stories my good friend Sepiawolf and myself have been developing. The start of a series that explores the life of Michelle and her friends, and introduce a new cast of characters. I hope you all enjoy reading them as much as we've enjoyed writing them!

Thirty two years old today. Wow, that's nuts. Where does the time go? Seems like just yesterday i was thirty one. Oh yeah, yesterday i was thirty one :(

Thirty one years old today, another year under my belt. Think ill treat my self to a nice steak dinner to celebrate.

Don't worry everyone, i'm not leaving FA, but i am starting to slowly move my stories and commissioned art to Weasyl. I have been a member of this site since December of 2005 and over the years have made the acquaintance of a lot of great people. I don't want to leave, and don't intend to, but i am dissatisfied with the way Furaffinity has been run over the years. I have never voiced my complaints and wont start doing so now, but this hacking incident was the last straw. So i am branching out to other websites, starting with Weasyl. The hacking of Furaffinity has shown me it doesn't pay to put all your eggs in one basket. I only lost three submissions, i was lucky. My heart goes out to those who were severely affected by this fiasco.

So tomorrow i turn the big three zero. Yup, my twenty's are behind me, and as a public service to the world i would like to apologize for some of the unfortunate things that were born along with me in the long ago year 1986.

Please forgive me for Howard the Duck,i didn't ask him to follow me into this world. Highlander, that movie with lightning, swords, kilts and Shaun Connery. Cobra, the movie that made everyone realize Sylvester Stalone had a stroke at some point during the filming. Star Trek, The Voyage Home, because Whales, REALLY! Delta Force, the movie that started Chuck Norris's downward spiral and most likely killed Lee Marvin, and Maximum Overdrive, the only movie ever directed by Stephen King. Why the only one? Because he was coked out of his mind all through it's production and really didn't know what he was doing.

I'm so, so sorry for Lady Gaga, Lindsay Lohan, Shia LaBeouf, The Olson Twins, and Amanda Bynes. I don't return their phone calls, i am not associated with them in any way.

But 1986 wasn't all bad, i mean, i gave you guys such classic's as Aliens, Platoon, Top Gun, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Stand By Me, Labyrinth, Little Shop of Horrors, Blue Velvet, American Tail, The Fly, Big Trouble in Little China and Crocodile Dunde. So your welcome world,

So when I hopped on to FA earlier today I happened to glance at the watched by thingy at the bottom of the page and yeah, there are just over 500 of you guys watching little old me. I never thought that would happen, I mean it’s not like I’m a talented writer or anything, and I sure as hell can’t draw to save my life. So thanks a bunch to you all, and here’s a little sequence to celebrate featuring everyone’s favorite albino rat growing a big, bursting belly

FOR SCIENCE!!!!

Is everyone out there pumped for May-Ternity? You better be, or else

---

well, i don't know. But it will be bad.

I will be celebrating this wonderful month long festival of fecundity with stories and art of my two favorite gals Michelle and Delila. I'm excited to see what everyone else brings to the table. Be sure to check out Riddles pregnancy drive here http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16410027/

I want to see team riddle win personally. i cant get enough pregnant Ridley, she's one sexy sphinx. If you are a writer, an artist or just someone with a few spare bucks for a commission then get involved, let's make this month one to remember!

So my birthday was on the third, twenty eight years old now, woo hoo! Was listening to my local classic rock station recently and they now play all of the bands i grew up with in the nineties, so i guess that makes me officially old. Oh well, now i can say things like "Back in my day," and other grandpa related quotes.

But anywho, i decided to buy a little present for myself this year and commissioned Dawmino http://www.furaffinity.net/user/dawmino to draw a little sequence of images for a story i have had bouncing around in my head. I've been pushing myself to write again after a looong break, so each picture that Dawmino posts on his page will have a little snippet of story added to it from me. I'm super rusty, so don't beat me up too badly in the comments, but i would love some constructive criticism, always apreciated. So go check out Dawmino's page, give him a watch and check out all his awesome work, and check out part one and two of the sequence.

Part one: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13167325/

Not that anyone really cares, me included, but today is my birthday. YAY! WOO HOO! (throws confetti into the air) But anyway, here's a list of all the horrible things that have happened in April besides my birthday that you can read while I clean up all this darn confetti.

April 10 = Steven Seagal is born.
April 15 = Titanic sinks.
April 16 = Virginia Tech Massacre
April 18 = Beirut bombing and the great San Francisco earthquake
April 19 = Waco Texas
April 20 = Columbine shooting
April 21 = Tony Danza is born
April 26 = Chernobyl nuclear meltdown

I'd really like to thank everyone who has faved my stuff or watched me recently, you guys have really blown me away, I never thought in a million years that anyone would like Michelle and Rachelle. So to thank all of you, on this, the day of my birf (yes, I purposely misspelled birth) i'm going to be posting a ton of stuff throughout the day. Yay!! (Throws even more confetti and sets off fireworks) Well, I guess that's everything, now if you'll excuse me, the fireworks just ignited all this confetti, so I need to go get my fire extinguisher.
