Well, as I said in my last journal, I've been feeling very under the weather for pretty much the whole past week, as I believe I caught the flu at the race track (either from my father, or from somebody else there). It's been a pretty rough week, as I've been able to keep my fluids down, but not able to eat very much or get very much exercise at all. But just a couple of days ago I went to to the doctor, and I was prescribed some steroids (as well as another medicine) to take in the hopes of getting rid of my illness. While I'm not fully better...I feel a lot better than I have for most of the past week; and I think I'll be all better again soon! Can't wait to get off the steroids because although I know they're supposed to help, I absolutely HATE the way they taste! Hopefully, I should be able to get back to writing the last chapter of "Puppy Problems" soon...I honestly can't believe that story still isn't finished considered it's not a complex or challenging story by any means! Shows how out of it I am in my writing...Oh well, as soon I have the last chapter finished and proofread, I'll have it up here!
In the meantime...I know it's a day early, but I would like to wish all of my friends a happy Easter...or as I sometimes jokingly call it, Happy Egg Day
It's the time of the year in which we are supposed to remember the resurrection of Jesus after his crucifixion...or in modern day times, the time of the year in which we celebrate an imaginary magical being known as the Easter Bunny who leaves baskets full of colorful eggs, toys, candy, etc. for good little children (it just wouldn't be a holiday if over-commercialization didn't take it over, would it? ) I remember when I was younger I used to help color Easter Eggs all the time before Easter...though that was such a long time ago; it's been probably fourteen or fifteen years or so since my family last colored eggs! Anyways, Easter is a time of the year which a lot of people will be spending with their families; and I myself, like I'm sure some of you no doubt will be, shall be doing exactly that this year (I still live with my parents anyways; so it would be kind of hard NOT to spend time with them!). Anyways, hope all of you have a happy Easter!

Another Year, Another Birthday Journal
It always feels like this day creeps up on me out of the blue. It felt like I was just celebrating my 31st birthday...and then a full year passes and now it's my 32nd birthday. (A day early, or maybe not depending on where you live and different time zones, but I kind of wanted to post this now because I have a lot of plans tomorrow.) I find it really funny that when my mother was expecting me, the doctors were projecting me to be born on Easter of that year. Instead I came out a few weeks early on April Fool's Day. (Well, that's babies for you!) And this year my birthday is the day after Easter. It was even funnier a few years back when they actually both fell on the same day! Honestly, how do I feel turning 32? Not much different than I have the past several years. My birthday really did feel a lot more special to me as a child-like it was my own personal private holiday-but somehow as I've grown older it's kind of lost a lot of that luster. It really mostly feels like another day
Entering a New Year of Uncertainty...
Well, it's finally here again. That time where we say goodbye to the previous year and hello to the next one, the days everyone knows as New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. It's funny I say "finally" because really, time passes by way too fast for me these days so it feels like the entire year went by in a flash. As I have said on numerous occasions I wish time would pass slower like it seemed to when I was a child...seriously, I swear time seemed to go about four times slower growing up :D So how did 2023 fair for me? Up and down. It wasn't a very productive year. I did finally get properly started with the first chapter of Baby Steps, but not much more than that. I did want to write more chapters but I just did not really feel in a writing mood that much this year at all. I'm so sorry for those who wanted more :( I did however change one of my main characters' species and attire (Cliff, formerly the Masai giraffe became Cliff the red panda :aww: ), and I also commissioned quite
Get to Know: Cliff Adkins (UPDATED!)
Since I have decided to change Cliff's species, it's obviously in order to update this "Get to Know" journal. As I said before, Cliff is a character who has had a very hard and rough life, maybe the most depressing of any character in my current stories. From being horribly abused as a child, to having a disastrously failed marriage, right up to having attempted to end his own life...He's seen a lot. If some of the details of his life are upsetting, remember you were warned :( NAME: Wallace Clifford Adkins (Cliff, however, does NOT know his actual first name is Wallace, because it's only listed on his birth certificate and records as "W." His own father disliked the name his mother wanted to call him so much that he just wrote it down as "W." and so Cliff has never known his true first name) ANIMAL SPECIES: Red panda (Ailurus fulgens). GENDER: Male. NATIONALITY: American. HOMETOWN: Born in Durango, Colorado, spent most of his early life in Littleton. CURRENT RESIDENCE: Suburban
The Second GoodCaptainClack Q-and-A Spectacular!
Or technically the third, since I tried to do one many years ago that got all of one response and didn't go anywhere. I've kind of wanted to do another one of these for a while but knowing I don't have many fans/friends who would probably want to ask me anything in the first place is always kind of a deterrent :( ^^; But I'd like to try doing one of these again! Feel free to ask me about almost anything, ranging from my stories, characters, my hobbies, interests, personal tastes (like music and the like), and a small handful of personal questions. Just keep in mind I would rather you not ask questions of the following types: -Political/religious questions. There are two things surer to stir up anger and negative emotions in people and that would easily be politics and religion due to how for a large number of people that is extremely deeply entwined with who they are deep down inside. I do not want to get into any kind of debates of that manner or disappoint people there :D
