Lizzer life update (mostly good stuff!)
a month ago
Hey everyone! :>
I sometimes feel a bit like a Life-Update hamster that hoards stuff worth sharing in their mouf for a while before spitting it all out at once haha. So this is going to be a bit of a mish-mash of things and I think most of them are good (and slimy?)!
Here is the short version:
1: Dolphy and I got engaged a while ago and will be married in 2 weeks <3
This will make a lot of the living-together-things waaay easier for us but otherwise everything is the same as now. (It's really just changing the label on the same thing lol)
2: We are currently moving from the US to Germany and I/we will have quite a bit more space for arts and crafts after that, planning to try out some cool new things <3
...but also that whole thing is very time consuming and very expensive rn, so please bear with me for a bit. We'll be in Germany on vore day and will be in a house full of nothing. It'll need much energy to set up c,: (but it's also kinda fun tbh)
3: I am well aware of the whole censorship etc. stuff going on rn and I have no clue how to properly act or respond to that. Tho it's a no-brainer that regardless of how bad things might get short term, I'll always continue making and sharing my smut with you in any ways possible. I think of it almost like those dark times during the prohibition, guess it'll be some sort of moonshine art in worst case lol
4: I'll be at EF again this year of course and look forward to boop y'all (again)! Meeting old friends and making new ones at cons is always my highlight or the year 💕
More detailed version:
1: It's been 10 years since Dolphy and I met for the first time through funny interactions in my comment section (if you dare you can scroll back through my time machine gallery haha). We ended up in DMs, then calls, then started to meet in person as frequently as possible- and that's how it all happens in summary :D
Of course, I would have never thought 10 years back then that I'd marry that dummy fish and we'd be living together one day. Even when we talked and clicked immediately, the distance just seemed impossible and I was always poor as heck to even think about doing travels like this, so we were not really labeling ourselves as mates at the time even if we kind of were. At some point though we did actually manage to start meeting and from there on it became a normal thing to us like all other forms of being-togerher. When I look back it's kind of crazy to think about how many things we've managed to overcome together during that time and much we became a part of each other's life to the point where marriage just became a no-brainer to us (which is good because we dun have many braincells c:).
Like said above, essentially everything is the same as always though, because it is. The way we've been together was always very organic and fluid, without requiring any labels of our status. We never even had an 'official' date or so. Even the 'proposal 'was kind of more like "If we don't get married, who else would marry us?" Kinda deal haha.
We've been together for so long that many of you only really know us/me in this state, so don't expect anything to change. We don't randomly introduce anything new to our lives by switching the status to "married", but it makes many things easier for us easier, like paper work and taxes and immigration and all that nonsense. It's also kinda cute tho haha
2: While I feel at home in CO and would have had no issues living there, we really prefer being in Germany, especially right now. As some of you know I live there with a really nice room mate and we own a house together that has 3 apartments, but our personal one is way too smol, and I categorically refuse to yeet people from their homes of course. So Dolphy and I rented a place near my work that is huge and very affordable. Plus, it means we'll only need one car. It's a bit of a double edged sword tho, because when any tenant moves out one day we'll have to move everything over again to my old place again ff-
The fact the whole place is empty will take a hek ton of energy to set up. Luckily I am on PTO til mid September rn and to be honest it's also really fun to set up a new place. (I just wished it wasn't so expensive y-y)
We are currently in Denver at Dolphy's sis place and are at this point done with everything to be ready, which was a huuuuge process. Still, there are always new things we don't anticipate and that punch the wallet in its dick real hard ff, like realizing the over sized heavy lugagge fees are 600 bucks each. Just to be clear, I don't ask for money (I never do), but if you plan to move from the states to Europe be sure to have a fat cushion of it haha. Dolphy and I been saving up for this and it took indeed a more than anticipated huge chunk out of that.
Getting rid of some things was in parts a bit sad, but also an opportunity. We kept anything that's meaningful to us and prioritized plushies and personal items over clothes for example. We ended driving a truckload of donations to our local charity thrift store and it's honestly kind of a nice to know peops will continue using stuff you owned at least. On to new adventures! c:
3: I think the short version already covers this thing well. We have this sort of "you can't have steak because babu can't chew steak" type situation. So us steak makers now need to make sure babus don't get steaks? I guess parenting isn't required anymore. It's really convoluted stuff and am not gonna rant about every detail, but I am proud to see actions being taken like the phone and email raids, kind of like a "fuck around and find out" situation for those companies. Like I also said above tho to me it makes no difference in terms of how I'll continue making stuff. The financial loss blows if it happens, but I worry more about the full time artists rather than me if the worst case scenario happens (I work a "normal" job). I'll be optimistic tho and say things tend to pend in somewhere in the middle eventually in my experience. Currently the swing is extreme, but we already see forces naturally pulling the other direction and we are part of those forces. I believe it'll be like the prohibition or so, where it'll be a mess for a while in worst case but then goes back to letting people be people again.
4: EF will be awesome as always, really excited!! <3
Also as always am not gonna do any sales or so, but will make fun (free of course) doodles for you if we meet and have the time for it c:
The reason why I go to furcons is having fun with friends who I rarely see all together, not worky stuff. If you see me there, feel free to squeeze and hang out, am always happy to meet peops I know and new ones 💕
I might not be able to reply to you peops immediately rn since we are mighty busy as you can imagine. But I wish you all a great weekend! 💜

Hope everything goes perfectly :D Have fun at EF!
Time flies anyways
Nice to hear you two tied the knot!
I bet it will be a challenging adventure.
Honestly kinda sad tho to not be as much with the CO gang anymore. I really don't have many connections up here in northern Germany, weh. But maybe will over time, we'll see~
