One of the things I tend to do when writing is I'll switch between past tense and present tense. Usually not in the same story, but I will write different stories in past or present tense depending on the story. What I hate is that often times when writing a story, I'll go back to proofread (always a good idea ;D), and realize I've switched up past and present tenses. This might not bother me so much if I did it maybe once or twice every couple of pages, but what usually happens is I'll switch tense for a couple of paragraphs every couple of pages, meaning I have to make corrections to multiple words every sentence for a couple of paragraphs. And this is when writing in past tense. If I'm writing a story that's in present tense, it's even worse. I'll sometimes switch back to past tense for whole pages, making the proofreading process even more tedious.

Anyway, there's a random bit of musing about me. Have a good day. ^.^

COMMISSIONS

STATUS: Closed


PRICE: My price is a set $5 per 1000 words and a 3000 word minimum.

I always round down. If you ask for a story that's 6,000 words and I write it to be 6,700, I'll only charge for 6,000 because I like to make sure I include all the detail necessary to make the story work. Going over is not your fault. If it gets too close to the next thousand, like 6,930 or so, I'll edit it to remove some superfluous items.


HOW IT WORKS: When asking for a commission, make sure to provide as much detail as necessary for me to provide the story you want, such as specific fetishes, sex acts, characters, locations, clothing, point of view, etc. If you want specific detail, let me know. If you want to leave it up to me, that's fine too. Word count is especially helpful. I need to know from the beginning how long to make the story so I can pace myself properly.

After I have all the information I need, I will write the story and when I'm finished, I will send a request via Paypal for the amount specified based on the price and the word count agreed upon.

After receiving payment, I will send you the story so you can read it and let me know of any changes you wish to be made. If you want it altered, things added, or things taken away I'll do it. There's no extra charge to make a story exactly how you want it.


WHAT I WILL WRITE ABOUT: This list is way too long to be given here. If you peruse my gallery, you'll see I am open to almost any kinks. Below are some of the things I love to write about.

Musk
Rimming
Face Sitting
Sweat
Macro/Micro
Anal Vore (Non-permanent)
Bondage
Sounding
Catheters
Orgasm Denial
Edging
Size Difference
Fucking Machines
Male Milking
Non-con
Pheromones
Male Heat
BDSM

Other things I either like to write about or am happy to do so.

Other Vore (Non-permanent)
Paw Play
Voluntary Servitude
Toys
Tentacles
Oviposition
Pet Play
Pain
Rough
Spanking
Whipping
Fanfiction

I'm also fine with dark themes, such as rape, slavery, kidnapping, torture, death and maiming are a maybe.

This is not an exhaustive list so if you don't see something here, just ask. I'm willing to write about almost anything... but not everything.


WHAT I WON'T WRITE ABOUT: This is a fairly short list and also not all inclusive. Also, I would like to give some explanations about some of them as I don't think it's necessarily empirical.

Cub – This should be pretty self-explanatory.

Gore – Most of these are sex-related. I don't mind writing about gore to create drama or horror, but as a sexual fetish, it's not something I want to write about.

Hyper – This one counts in pretty much any aspect. Mainly it applies to overly large body parts, such as a 6 foot tall character with a 12 foot long penis. But it also counts for volume. Think of a normal character with normal proportions producing a gallon of cum in a single ejaculation, despite his testicles and prostate not being able to hold that much cum in one orgasm.

Inflation – I don't mind a little swelling, actually I kinda like it, but once a character turns into a literal living balloon, I'm out. It's too cartoony for my taste.

Popping/Bursting – Similar to the one above, it's too cartoony.

Zootopia – Kind of a weird one for me, but I just prefer not to write about these characters in adult situations. Clean, non-sexual related stuff is fine, though

If you don't see something listed here or above that you want me to write about, go ahead and ask. Some things have actually been left out intentionally.


HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE: Once I get started on your commission, based on past and recent experiences, I can almost guarantee to write about 6,000 words a week, though it will probably be more than that. The reason it takes so long is because I have a full-time job and this is not my main source of income, so I can't dedicate too much time to it. However, if there's someone ahead of you in the queue, it might take a couple weeks for me to start, depending on how many commissions I take.

Additionally, I have other personal projects I want to work on, so depending on how many commissions I get, I'll have to intersperse my work on those with stories I'm writing for myself.


I will always keep you up to date when I start, how it's going, and any thoughts on additions I might like to make.

Holy s***!

Seriously?

I just checked and the last upload I made here was back in July of last year and the last time I uploaded any stories was at the end of 2021. Really? I knew I had gotten a bit lax in my creative endeavors, but I didn't realize it was this bad. Sheesh. Not to mention I haven't written a journal in over 2 years.

Well, for anybody wondering, like a lot of people, during the pandemic I didn't have a lot of reason to go anywhere, so I just stayed indoors. This led to me becoming a bit of an indoor fox, but worse yet I became really lazy as well. After I moved to LA, I found I wanted to travel around even less and it seemed like I had even less motivation to do anything creative. I've been thinking about getting back into both writing and animation, even messing around in Blender here and there, but I always wound up taking really long breaks. Well, over the last couple of weeks, I got an itch, a really bad one and I found that I really, really, really wanted to get back into writing. So, I sat down and started working on my "Olfactophilia" series, "finishing" a couple chapters and ready to continue with the next few. And let me say, I feel wonderful. I feel free and creative and anxious to share with everyone my perverted furry thoughts. ^.^

FUTURE PLANS
Part of the problem, I feel, is that when writing a series I can get bogged down with world-building and character or story development that it usually takes time for me to really flesh it out so I can get to the good stuff. This in turn delays my posts and inhibits my creative side. So, what I plan to do moving forward is, whenever writing a series or working on potential commissions, to write a chapter or two for the series or commission and in between write a random one-off story just to give people something to have fun with. I'm also looking to start writing more short stories, which for me means 3k-4k words, just to get more stories put out there and also keep myself in practice. In addition, for story series, I intend to write several chapters at a time and gradually release them periodically so that I can keep the flow of the story or potential story going more smoothly.

COMMISSIONS
For anyone who might be interested, I'm not planning on opening for commissions anytime soon due to a backlog of stories and chapters that I want to get done. I do have a couple of people who have asked previously and I have to speak to them first, although that will also take some time. I feel it necessary to explain something, though. When I started doing commissions back in 2019, I was unemployed and looking to make a little extra money. However, I found a job not too long after that and didn't want to spend all my free time writing commissions, so I didn't take too many. That and I also had difficulty finding the motivation. However, that might change if I can manage my time better and stay focused on a specific task at hand. With that in mind, I will make sure to let anyone interested in a commission know when I'm ready to open for them.

ANIMATIONS
In addition to my writing, I also have my attempts at animation, which I have also been lax in pursuing. As stated, I have been working on and off with Blender, but not enough to really be truly productive or to learn new things to make better and more versatile animations. I will hopefully be fixing that, but I've been saying this for years, so who knows if it'll come to fruition. One problem is writing and animating at the same time can be a bit distracting. So while working on one, I tend not work on the other. I really hope this works because I really, really want to make more animations and share them with everyone.

I'm getting old. As of this coming Wednesday, I will officially be 40 years old. In some ways I do feel it, in others I don't, but however I feel age wise, I definitely know that I am wasting time not doing what I love and that needs to f*****g change.

Anyways, thank you.

Hello Everyone,

I hope 2021 is going better for most people out there. It's not exactly been the best start to the new year, but then again last year started out great and then went to sh- Well, enough of that.

Due to flash player no longer being used and FA not having an alternative at the moment, I have to find other ways to showcase my animations. Right now, I've got three other sources - well actually just one source and two more that I hope will serve in the future. They are Furry Network, SoFurry, and e621. I'm putting the sources of FN and SF below, but I've also added links to the animations in the submissions themselves.

Furry Network: https://furrynetwork.com/kpfoxpaw/
SoFurry: https://kpfoxpaw.sofurry.com/

ATM, FN is the only place where my animations are active. Animations still aren't working on SF, except for SWF files and I'd rather upload as MP4. As for e621, I just signed up today and you have to wait a week before you can upload... for some reason. Once I can, I will upload every one of my animations to those sites.

As for my writings and any other uploads, like pictures or commissions, those will stay on either here or SF. I always wanted to have this or SF as a central hub and I intend to keep it that way... for now.

Have a pleasant day, week, month, year. XD

So yeah, I saw it last night, wanted to get an early viewing, and it was... ... ... good.

I gotta say, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little let down after the phenomenal marketing got me so hyped, but that's not to say I didn't like it or that it wasn't a thoroughly entertaining film.

First off, the bad - What a lot of critics are saying about the plot is pretty much spot on. And truth is, before seeing the film, I went in thinking that critics need to back off and recognize a film for its intent and a super original plot is not what the filmmakers were intending. However, after seeing the film, I realize what they meant and I wholeheartedly agree. This movie relies on a story almost anyone has seen a million times before, but such a pitfall could be forgiven if the movie was written well. However, I can't really say the writing was that memorable. It had some good jokes and some good lines, but for the most part it was pretty by the numbers in its writing as well. It could've made up for that with the characters, but again the filmmakers didn't really write the most memorable characters. Tim was good; I thoroughly disagree with what some people are saying about him. I thought he was complex, had a decent personality, and was 3-dimensional. Can't really say that about Lucy. The actress, Kathryn, played her fine, but they didn't really give her much to work with. Same for Ken Watanabe's character. Another minor problem was the pacing. I felt the movie was well-structured, unlike some people, and flowed very well, but a few scenes did feel rushed and I think they could've benefited from an extra minute or two to properly set up the scene.

Now with that out of the way, I gotta say that what was supposed to work in the film worked very well: the Pokemon! They were cute, well rendered, and so enjoyable to watch. There were a few that seemed less like living creatures and more like living dolls, but that's about all the negative things I have to say about it. There is one other thing, but it's a minor nitpick and a bit of a spoiler, so I won't go into it. Ryan Reynolds as Pikachu was just the best choice, Psyduck was an absolute treasure, as was expected, cubone, aipom, pancham, jigglypuff, greninja, torterra- OH MY GOD, the bulbasaurs were sooooooo damn cute! And of course Mewtwo, who was in the movie for quite a bit, was just pure, rich, eye candy. Kinda want to see a live action film dedicated solely to him. <3

I will be going to see it again and will almost certainly be buying it when it comes out. If you're a Pokemon fan, I'd recommend seeing it. If you're just looking for a movie to kill time with and aren't really familiar with Pokemon, you might enjoy it for the cute creatures or you might be turned off by the overdone narrative. At the moment, I'd say a 7 out of 10, but that might change after a second viewing.

Last night, my cat Whisper began having respiratory issues; she was breathing irregularly. As I sat down with her, I noticed she began to open-mouth pant and drool. She became lethargic, unable to stand on her own and could barely make a sound. I rushed her to a hospital where, by that time she was better, sitting up, mewing loudly, acting like her usual self, but I found out that she was extremely dehydrated. Not surprising considering she hasn't eaten or drunk much since I moved. The vet told me the two most likely possibilities were a metabolic disorder, probably kidney disease, or cancer. She recently underwent enucleation to remove a tumor, but the tumor was too far spread that the doctor couldn't remove it all. That was eight months ago, so considering the time frame I feel like cancer was a good possibility. Given the poor prognosis and the likelihood that any treatment would be too costly and just leave her with mere weeks, I decided to end it. I didn't want to take her home, waiting on pins and needles for something like this to happen again. I waited for eight months for something like this to happen and I knew as soon as I saw her breathing heavy that there was little that could be done. They brought her in to see me where my brother and I got to say our goodbyes. She was mewing, purring, relaxed, much more so than she normally is when I take her to a vet. When they put her down, she died with her head resting in my hand.


There is one thing I'm glad about from all of this, that I was able to remember her last moment as the way she normally was: sweet, loving, attentive, and tender, forever a little kitten. I didn't want my last moment with her to watch her gasping for breath or too sullen or sick to make a sound. I've seen that before and I wouldn't wish that on anybody. She was like a daughter to me, we've been through so much in 13 years and because of that we've both received 13 years of love and adoration.


Goodbye my sweetheart. You will forever be in my heart.
March 2006 - January 24th, 2019

I just wanted to provide a little update on my current status.

I gotta say, it's not fun being unemployed. It could be worse. I could be homeless and begging for food, but luckily I got family that's both able and willing to support me. So as I look for work, I'm stuck in Bullhead City, AZ just across the river from Laughlin, NV where there's nothing to do (not like I'd be doing anything anyway) and any money in my savings is going very, very, very slowly out the proverbial door. But hey, it's not all bad. At least I get to work on furry stuff like my writing and animation, both of which I never really took the chance to work with before.

Well, that's all. Thank you for reading. Have a nice day.

He was and always will be one of the greatest minds of all time. A man like him does not come around once in a lifetime. Not only possessed of great intellect, but also a sense of humor and humility. He will be missed.

In a year with such wonderful animated movies, Zootopia has come out on top. After sweeping the awards circuit winning at the Golden Globes, the Producers Guild, the Critics Choice, and the Annies, Zootopia has taken the highest honor of an animated film, the Oscar.

I would like to say that all of the nominees were fantastic films, even though I still haven't seen two of them. Of the three I have seen though, all of them were deserving of this award. But of course, I am thrilled that it was Zootopia that took the gold. Congratulations Howard, Moore, and Spencer!

It is 12:00 pacific time and so I would like to wish everyone out there a happy new year. May 2017 bring you what 2016 could not. And if it could, may 2017 bring you more of that.

... or Captain America: What Batman V Superman Could Have Been!

Let me start out by saying that I'm not the biggest Captain America fan. I thought the first one was pretty boring. However, Winter Soldier is one of my favorite MCU movies. So...

Overall impression: the movie was great. It's essentially an Avengers movie without the Avengers title which focuses on Captain America and Iron Man. So, you could call it Avengers 2.5:Captain America 3:Iron Man 4. The action was great and the choreography was very well done. The action scene at the airport was indeed amazing. The way they were able to take each character, have them fighting one another, and still seem like each was contributing equally to the action was just brilliantly done. And the story (no spoilers) was actually a bit of a refreshing turn from everything we've been getting. I really liked Bucky in this though. They really gave him some much needed character. Also, I've not seen Antman yet, but I really liked Paul Rudd as a superhero.

That being said, I did have some problems with the movie. Mostly minor things, but to avoid spoilers, I won't go into details. There was one thing that bothered the hell out of me. The camera work was *hit. From start to finish, I had problems with the camera movements. It got better as the movie progressed, but that just means it got less bad.

Overall though, I was impressed. Definitely, if you're a fan of MCU movies (and who isn't), I'd recommend this movie.

Holy crap! It's been over a year since I last made a journal. Man, I have got to get off my lazy butt and do more besides work, come home, and then go back to work.

Warning: SPOILERS! The review is generally spoiler free with minor hints as to the plot. I make no promises for the comment section though.

Anyways, the movie's been out in the US for nearly a month now and I'm kinda late to layin' out my thoughts on this movie, 'specially considering I just saw it for the fourth time today. I have a few things to say about this movie... actually I've got 1,460,000 things to say about this movie, but it's taking a while to gather and express all of them, so I'm going to summarize it here.

Words cannot express how much I flippin' adore this movie. I have not enjoyed a film this much in a long, long, long, long time. When I see a movie twice in theaters, it means I enjoyed it a lot, when I see it three times (last one was The Dark Knight) it means I really enjoyed it a lot, but when I see it more and plan on seeing it 5, 6, 7, and more, it's become an obsession and that is how I feel about this movie. I am obsessed with it.

The world they created is amazing. Everything about the city of Zootopia is just a wonder to behold. Each district was well thought out and rationalized for all types of animals. Each one is unique and has a certain appeal from the Palm Oasis Hotel in Sahara Square to the beauty of the snow covered hills in Tundratown. Personally, my favorite district was Rainforest district because it felt distinct in a way. In addition to the area on the river, it had the vertical scaling of the trees, giving it a three dimensional feel. The entire world felt organic and alive as there was constant movement all around, not just what we see from the focal characters. In addition, there is so much more to explore, as there are numerous districts that were not covered in the film. Also, the creators have hinted at the existence of other countries for reptiles, birds, and primates. Though not explained in the film, the existence of these other areas makes an intriguing idea to explore later on.

The characters... my God! I don't think there was a single bad character in the film... well I mean there were evil characters. There were so many wonderful characters in the film that I just absolutely loved. My main complaint was that so many of them were only on screen for such a short time. Finnick needed a lot more speaking lines because that body and that voice is just gold. Chief Bogo was fairly complex and had a surprising amount of character development. Dawn Bellwether was a great character and her role in the film made perfect sense. Clawhauser is, in my personal opinion, the sweetest and most lovable character ever in a Disney film. He is so jovial all the time, he's got the cutest cheeks, and watching his tail fire up in the air when he's excited is just too cute to watch. And major credit to Nate Torrence who is, in all honesty, Clawhauser in human form. Judy is just the spark of the movie and changing her to be the lead was certainly the right call. She's perky, ambitious, tenacious, and optimistic and brightens up every scene with her smile. But it's her faults that make her such a great character. Her own unacknowledged prejudices, brought about by a childhood encounter and parental influence, contrasting with her open outlook on inclusion and acceptance make her a very dynamic character who's able to develop throughout the film. She's wonderfully animated, wonderfully expressive, and wonderfully voiced. She is just a wonderful character.

But - if I had to name a favorite character in the movie, hands down it goes to Nick Wilde. I can't say enough how much I love this character. His facial and body expressions were masterfully done. Jason Bateman was perfect to fill the role. But what really drives this character is his complexity. Despite the fact that I think Judy had the most development, Nick was, at least in my mind, the most complex. He's got the most extreme internal and external struggle of any character in the film, essentially torn between personalities, the one he wants to be and the one that helps him survive. As the movie continues on, that struggle shifts balance as his very outlook on life is challenged by Judy. And despite his tough exterior, he is an extremely vulnerable person and we see that vulnerability exposed. I have so much to say, but I said I needed to summarize and, well, believe it or not, this is summarizing. Nicholas Piberius Wilde has captured my heart and I know this is premature, but he is currently my favorite Disney character (yes, I love him that much).

The story, at its core, is a very basic, very formulaic, and very cliched film noir, buddy cop plot. But what really makes this movie so memorable and so enjoyable is what they do with that plot. They take a very mature and relevant theme, structure it in a very relatable way, throw in some amazing writing and characters and add some great action sequences and what they've done is create an engaging and immersive story with wonderful characters with great chemistry between them. The humor in the movie is well done and the dialogue is terrific. What really drives this movie is the element of prejudice. The movie does a damn good job of showcasing the issue of prejudice and bigotry without actually beating us over the head with it. It's a world where divisions occur between species or groups of species, instead of between races or genders or sexual orientation. This works well because as an allegory, the issue of prejudice in relation to the real world becomes situation-dependent and can be used as a general analogy. There's so much more to say. The movie is so deep and so mature that there are a number of topics to discuss. Nature vs nurture, how fear influences the masses, outward vs inward views of prejudice... I could go on, but I'll stop here.

The animation... spectacular. Even nitpicking certain tiny, miniscule details is completely pointless because the animation is just that good. The expressions for each character are wonderful and the world itself, as I said before, is actually populated so that in every shot, when necessary, there are people wondering around to remind us of that. The colors are so bright and rich and it's beautiful to look at. What really stands out about the animation, and it's the thing I think most people noticed, was the fur. The fur, in this movie, was taken to a whole new level of animation. The amount of work and thought that went into the fur shows up in spades in just how realistic it looks. Not just the look of the fur, but the fur patterns themselves. The variations in distribution and color, the inconsistencies in length, all thought out in detail. So much so that even the tiniest mouse had over 400,000 strands of hair, which is about as much as Elsa had on her head in Frozen. They even created new technology so that fur could interact with fur. Like other animation studios, Disney is always trying to push the boundaries in animation and for this movie... they left the competition dead in their tracks.

The music is wonderful. Until recently, I never really paid too close attention to a movie's soundtrack unless it really caught my attention, like it did here. There are many wonderful tracks and I honestly think that the score is more composed for adults than it is for kids. The exception of course being the premier track by Shakira. Nevertheless, it is a good song, very catchy, and I don't mind having it in my head.

Are there flaws in the movie? Of course there are. As I said, the movie is formulaic, cliche, and predictable. But Disney is rarely known for original concepts. They're known for taking classic tales and producing imaginative stories with great characters and immersive worlds. What they've done here is take a basic buddy cop mystery and mixed it with Disney magic to produce a very well told story with wonderful characters and the most inventive world they've every created. Another thing some people had a problem with was the fact that they rushed through the opening, but something to keep in mind is that when introducing people to a new world, it's important not to dwell too long on that introduction, otherwise we get bogged down with unimportant details that serve no purpose to the narrative. Do I want to know more? Yes, but not at the expense of the story and the movie is already almost an hour and 50 minutes. Another thing that bugs me is that ever since Wreck-It-Ralph, Disney has been running on the trope of the mystery villain, the question of who's behind the scheme. And to be honest, it's kinda starting to get old. Now it works here because of what the story is and also, Disney has gotten better with creating three-dimensional villains that are sympathetic. They did it here and they did it with Big Hero 6. Frozen and WIR, not so much. But still, I hope they take a break from this plot device for Moana. There are also some lines in the movie that I really didn't like because they were told badly or they're overused. They're few and far between, but they're there.

Despite its flaws, Zootopia has infected me. It has entered my mind and will not leave. I didn't even have to see the movie to be hooked. I was danglin' on the reel ever since I saw the main trailer back on New Year's Eve. I've already seen it four times and I can't wait to see it again. It only gets better every time I see it. I can't wait for it to come to BluRay so that I can burn through the disc watching it so many times so that I have to go out and buy another copy and get the digital disc to watch in slow motion so I can catch all the little details.

Put simply: I f*****g love this movie!

*pants* In a completely unrelated topic, I have had this song in my head for several weeks and it refuses to leave, but that's not a bad thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4

Happy New Year!!!

According to timeanddate.com, it is now 12:00:00 on January 1st, 2015 as I submit this journal. So to everyone I know, I wish you a wonderful year ahead. *hugs everyone tight*

Flew in Wednesday and heard from the guy is was gonna be rooming with,  jibade, and found out that he wouldn't be in until late that night or early on the next morning due to a train that derailed. Luckily, I ran into an old, old, old friend of mine,  leolightmane, who introduced me to a couple of nice furs, whose FA usernames elude me for the moment by I knew as Pal and Seth, and I got to hang out with them. I wound up hanging out in their room and ultimately slept on the floor that night. Thanks guys. ^.^ Thursday morning came and I got in contact with Jibade and got to the hotel and checked in and everything, so that was taken care of.

Other than that, the rest of the con went by smoothly. Spent a lot of time hanging out with  ravennon,  durangodingo,  nova91, and  maglot. Saw a bunch of people there I hadn't seen in a while, the dances were cool, but the Saturday night dance was the best. I went all out that night. Couldn't feel my feet afterward. :D

Could talk for hours about the con, but I'll just say that, like the last two years, AC was a blast. Can't wait for next year (I hope)!

Welp, Califur has come and gone and I have to say, I think this was the best one I've been to. I, unfortunately, didn't arrive until Friday night after registration was closed, but Saturday and Sunday were still a lot of fun.

Thank you  ulricwolf69 and  daxenobis for rooming with me. This time next year, I'll be attending in fursuit. ^^

And now... back to school/work.

Yeah, I actually saw it Thursday night, but I've been procrastinating on it. ^.^ Anyways, I'd have to say that the scenes with Godzilla were some of the coolest and most exciting that I've seen in a movie in a long time. I plan to go see it again in 3D.

Just wanting to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a happy new year. *hugs to you all and slobbers all over you* ^.^

Been back from AC for almost a week and am just now writing a journal about it, partly because I'm busy, partly because I'm lazy. Anyways, AC was a blast, got to see some friends I hardly ever get to see, got to meet some new people, and had a lot of fun. The only downside is that I STILL don't have a fursuit of my own. Ack! I need to hurry up and get one. Hopefully I'll have something by early next year. Eh, still was a lot of fun and really hope I get to go next year.

Unfortunately, I have no idea if that's even possible at this point. I just finished my first school year (damn near killed myself studying for the comp exam) and I'm not looking forward to next year. On top of classes and research, I get to start TAing next year (the TA stands for teaching assistant), so that's just gonna add more stress to my life. More than that, if I can't get funding, either through fellowships, grants, or from my PI, then I'll have to get it from the school, meaning I'll be TAing during the summer and won't get to go to AC until I'm done, which won't be for a few years. D: Not much I can do about it though. Just gotta wait and see what happens.

So, life is good, but busy. Hope everyone has a great summer. *hugs you all*

It's 1:47 AM, central time as of this posting, so it'll be only a few more hours that one year ago,  brim was taken from us to be with his mother and sister Lucy. And right now I'm having trouble finding the right thing to say. He touched so many hearts in so many ways and left us some cherished memories. Throughout the good and the bad, his greatest contribution to this world was just being the caring, friendly person that he was.

We miss you Brim, but I know you're with your sister and mother and Mischief and I just hope that one day I get to see your smile one last time. I love you Keith and I always will.

Actually it was my birthday 2 days ago. I'm officially 29 for the second year in a row. ^.^

Went to the lab and left early, went home and had dinner with my mom and brother, then went home and watched Argo. Great movie by the way. Other than that, uneventful day.

Got a birthday card from the government... in the form of a jury summons. Yay- wait a minute. D:

Anyways, just wanted to let people know. Haven't made a journal in a while. *waves and huggles all who enters his radius*

Just wanted to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas. Am at my Mom's house with my bro, my sis, and my sis's hubby. :D Have fun and take care. *huggles everyone he knows*

To all, I wish a very happy Thanksgiving and very festive one at that. *huggles you all*

I'm going to say this: although I want Obama to win, I don't want him to win the electoral college if he winds up losing the popular vote. That's something I always bitch about that's wrong with our presidential election. I'm glad we at least get some kind of say in who we elect president, but I still think it needs changing.

Support the 'National Popular Vote.'

and Obama. <D

My first day trying a Touch-Down Raiz and I actually pulled it off. Yay! ^.^ Don't know why I capitalized it. O.o

Anyways, I'm here in Riverside, CA and I'm enjoyin' it. Grad school's keeping me pretty busy, but for the most part I'm where I wanna be. I can't wait to get my lab rotations out of the way so I can finally get started on a research project. Not a whole lot other than that goin' on. I'll try and provide a more detailed update later on. See ya.

I don't know who here actually pays attention to the olympics, but I just thought I'd post this for shits and giggles. I feel really bad for this guy, though.
