Solar eclipse
Posted 10 months agoIt's just a few minutes over 24 hours until my location will be experiencing about 4 minutes of totality. I'm just hoping there will be a nice timely break in our partly cloudy weather forecast.
Why didn't the Sun go to college?

Because it already had a million degrees.

Looks like raccoons can get Covid :(
Posted 3 years agoCovid managed to catch up with me. About half a week after Christmas, I started to feel pain in the sides of my chest. A couple days later I was dreadfully exhausted for no reason, and started having a sore throat and a bad non-ending headache. That kept getting worse until I couldn't talk. Then came the fever. It wasn't dreadfully high, at 101.2°F, but I normally run lower than normal. I woke up yesterday drenched in sweat and very dizzy.
In any case, it's been almost two weeks since the first symptoms, and yesterday was my worst day so far. I actually felt somewhat better today, though still far from normal. Also, I haven't been able to taste or smell much for about a week. I ate an orange today, and there was no joy. It tasted like nothing. Hopefully, my taste and smell will return soon. Eating favorite foods and not tasting them is a strange and very disappointing experience.
My doctor just told me to isolate at home, which is basically my normal lifestyle anyway, except that I'd walk to the store to buy milk, juice and bread every week or two. I'll be having someone deliver what I need, at least until a few weeks after I'm better.

Posted 4 years agoI just realized that I will have been on FA for fourteen years, in a couple days. That's just eleven months after FA was created. FA is the site I've used the longest on the web, after only Ebay, which I've been using since 1997.
Genuine Pooh Nuggets at Walmart!
Posted 4 years agoI was grocery shopping with a friend yesterday, when he pointed to a freezer and said, "Pooh Nuggets!"
This is actually a real product. Of course, they contain honey. It's all Pooh eats after all. :)

Well, it happened again - a hospital stay.
Posted 7 years agoI ended up in the emergency room, and stuck in the hospital for several days. It was the same thing that happened to me last Easter, and then again, not long after coming home from that. I got very severe pains in my lower stomach and had to the rushed to the hospital. After CAT scans, Ultrasounds, HIDA scans and an EGD, they still can't be sure what is wrong, and ultimately released me.
The EGD is where they put a scope down the throat to examine the interior of the esophagus and stomach. The HIDA scan is where they inject you with a radioactive isotope and put you under a scanner to watch how your blood flows from organ to organ. In my case, they were watching the liver, gall bladder, small intestine and pancreas. I had to lie perfectly still under the scanner for two full hours.
So, I went to the ER on Monday around 9:30 PM, and didn't get out of the hospital until Thursday at 3:00 PM. Like before, they told me it is not my appendix, not my gall bladder, not my stomach, and not my liver, and though my pancreas was a slightly off, that it could not cause the severe level of pain I had, nor would it be where I felt it. I am where I was last Easter - knowing what it isn't, but not knowing what it is. Oh, and I've even had scopes rammed up my tail hole to figure things out, no less than five times now! At least they don't get their throat scopes and butt scopes mixed up!
This is way past frustrating and scary, since I've now been in the emergency room three times for the exact same thing. Each time, they emphasized that coming in was good, because I could have died from the symptoms I was having. And, I am told, if the pain comes back, that I'm supposed to go immediately to the emergency room again! Eating doesn't seem to cause it. Not eating doesn't seem to cause it. It's just plain frustrating.
Being stuck in a hospital for several days, on a clear liquid diet, is definitely not my idea of a good time!

Netto, The Easter Surprise
Posted 7 years agoGetting there
Posted 8 years agoMy recent medical problems have not been solved yet. I still have the bad pains on and off. On the good side, I now have medicine that is supposed to reduce organ spasms in my abdomen. I also have the pain killers in case that doesn't work.
I go in next Friday for something called a HIDA scan, that will hopefully reveal the actual cause of my problems. At this point, it's mostly just frustration at how slow the process to figure stuff out is, and dealing with some pain. I'm saving the pain medicines for when the pain is a bit more severe.
Thank you to everyone who has been wishing me well.

Back out, with no real answers...
Posted 8 years agoI was only in the hospital for a day this time, before they sent me home. They ruled out my appendix, food poisoning, an infection, any sort of stones, and my gall bladder with a fair amount of certainty. This time, I came home with some pain killers that can probably drop an elephant. I'm almost afraid to take one of them, but if the pains starts up again, I'll need to.
I go into a gastrointestinal place on Friday to see if they can figure it out. They'll likely schedule me to have a scope run down my throat or up my butt to possibly see what Cat scans and echo scans can't see.
For now, I'm not in pain, but I know that can drastically change in under an hour.
Thank you to all who prayed for me or wished me well in my last couple journals. I'm positive that they'll figure it out. I just hope it's pretty fast so I won't need to deal with pain that is a 9 or 10 on a scale of 0 to 10. I normally have a fairly high pain tolerance, but this has shown me new levels of pain that I don't want to experience again. Yes, it's worse than accidentally stepping on a Monopoly house in your bare feet and having it grind up between your toes!
I was more prepared for the second hospital visit. I took a 40-inch blue floppy bunny plush in with me. I'm so glad I did too. There were no rooms in the Emergence part of the hospital for most of the day, and I was parked on a temporary bed in the hall, along with many other people. Those beds are not comfortable like the ones in the actual rooms are. The bunny was both a pillow and something to lean on when sitting up so I didn't ache. It put many of the staff into a good smiley mood when they saw the big bunny, despite the intense over-crowded day they were dealing with. I was the only adult in sight with a plushie, but that's part of what made people smile.

Going back in...
Posted 8 years agoI'm going back in to hospital , my stomach pain is soo bad that I'm shakking. Iwas okay up until two hours ago, then it just started up again. I may be off for a while until they figure this out.
Back from hospital - still okay - I think
Posted 8 years agoTwo days ago I ended up calling an ambulance for myself. I woke up soaked in sweat and in extreme abdominal pain. I tolerated it for almost two hours before making the call, then decided that it could be my appendix, so I'd better call 911.
After much checking and a CAT scan, they weren't sure what it was. My appendix was a little inflamed, but not nearly to a level of any concern, so it probably wasn't that. They ended up keeping me overnight, and for another day, trying to figure it out, but the pain went away during the night there. They never did figure it out, and eventually let me go home. It still could be my appendix, but they're thinking most likely that it was food poisoning or maybe a virus.
A couple hours ago, after I got home, the pain started to return, and went away again. I have no clue what is happening, but it's not looking like food poisoning now. If I vanish from the net for too long or something, it probably means something want wrong inside me that they couldn't fix. It bothers me that they can't figure it out, even after a scan. They pretty much ruled out gas, saying things seemed to be flowing normally inside me. Nothing they think it could be comes and goes and comes and goes like what I'm experiencing.
Luckily, a friend went back to my house to grab one of my raccoon plushies for me, so I could actually get some sleep while in the hospital. I just hope the pain doesn't return yet again. I'm not too fond of the idea of going back in.

Three Squaws
Posted 9 years agoThree Squaws
Three squaws were each preparing for the birth of their first child. The first squaw placed a large bear hide by a river, the second squaw placed an elk hide by a tree by a river, and the third squaw placed a hippopotamus hide by a path, near the river and the tree so that the three formed a triangle.
It just so happens that all three women gave birth on the same day. The first squaw on the bear hide had a 5-lb son, the second squaw on the elk hide had a 6-lb son, and the third squaw on the hippopotamus hide had an 11-lb son.
To this day, mathematicians credit these three women with the first proof of the Pythagorean Theorem:
"The son of the squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the sons of the squaws of the two adjacent hides."

Other places where I can be found and IMVU stuff
Posted 10 years agoSeveral of my friends have left, or are planning to leave FA. I am planning to stay, as I l♡ve the friends I have here. I have copied my gallery over to Inkbunny, and am active there as well. I am also on SoFurry and FetLife.
Though I am not leaving, I am fully prepared to leave and remove my stuff at a moment's notice - if the new owners of FA should make any changes to the site that directly affect me in a bad way. Inkbunny has pretty much become my main furry art site, as it is the closest to what FA is, with a few additional features that FA does not yet have, like enforced tagging, and working content filters. It's also the fastest furry art site on the web.
To help find your watchers on other art sites, you can use the Fur Affinity Exodus Helper. I would not use it as a tool to leave FA, but as a tool to increase your exposure on the other sites. Also, some sites have scripts to automate the copying of submissions, descriptions and tags from FA, so the process is not as time-consuming. An example would be Inkbunny's FA2IB script.

Using color tags and other codes on FA
Posted 10 years agoI know this info is already out there, but so many people keep asking, that I decided to make a permanent link to it myself. I rewrote the color section to hopefully make it a little easier for people. For some reason, that part seems to confuse a lot of people.
Using color tags and other codes on FA
Also, if you use relative links, you can have as many username links as you want on your page. If you read to the bottom, it tells how you can create up to 24 avatar icon links on your page too. The limit is normally 12. I hope this helps.

The Crap App!
Posted 10 years agoDid you ever wonder how blind persons know when they're done wiping after using the toilet? Or, what to do if go at night and the lights happen to be out? Well, the best you can do is guess and hope you got it all!
So, why not put your smart phone to good use and install the Crap App. Yes, the Crap App takes away any guessing, and alerts you if you might need to wipe more.
Upon finishing your bathroom business, just wipe as you normally would, and let your phone see the toilet paper you just wiped with. The Crap App will use your phone's camera to do a spectral analysis on the toilet paper. If the result is not clean, the phone will alert you to do another wipe.
The Crap App has white balance technology built in, so it works well with all colors of toilet paper that are commonly available. Also, the sensitivity is auto adjusted to work under any lighting conditions.*
The Crap App can also warn if it detects likely blood in your stool, and it will optionally remind you to wash your hands after each use.
The see who's using the Crap App at any moment, just click on the Crap App Map! From there, you can see which regions of the world require the most or the least wipes!

Large Rocket Plushies
Posted 10 years agoI have a Rocket plushie on the way!
A friend of mine pointed me to Toys-R-Us selling 27-inch tall Rocket Raccoon plushies. They were only $14.99 for Black Friday weekend, so I took a chance and ordered one. I notice that the price went up to $24.99 already, after buying mine. I can't tell if they are good quality, or junk, until mine arrives in the mail. If they are made well enough, and they go on sale again, I'll probably buy some spares.

Pooh Bear without pants not for kids!
Posted 10 years agoAccording to this NBC News article, Winnie the Pooh is not appropriate for children in Poland.
The reason: He has no visible sex, so he must obviously be a hermaphrodite, and he doesn't wear pants. Oh my, kids might actually see his non-existent sex organs!

WARNING: A stinky, smeary, poopy, scatty journal
Posted 10 years agoWARNING:
If you clicked here, and are turned off by COPROPHAGIA (POOP EATING), SCAT SMEARING, SOILED FURSUITS, etc - close this page now. You are not going to like what follows!
Seriously, don't go any further, unless you are into these topics.
Eye bleach is rather hard to come by during the Covid pandemic!!!
If you are still reading, then you are probably as pervertedly gross as I am! This is long, and very TMI!
Okay - I'm going to say it. I'm tired of hiding something I've been fantasizing over for so long..... I want a fur to take a nice firm thick dump directly into my fursuit muzzle! Yes, you read that correctly. I don't really care which of my fursuits someone would like to do this with, though some would be a bit easier to successfully use than others. The main requirement is that any fur who does this would really have to be into it. Half the pleasure I'd get from it would be in knowing it was turning the other person on - a lot.
Yes, this means letting someone actually squat over my fursuit face and squeezing one out right into my muzzle, hopefully filling it to capacity or more. Some of my fursuits don't have a functional mouth that can open, so it would end up all over the outside of my muzzle. It could be used as stinky lube, while messy grinding onto my muzzle, if desired.
Two of my fox heads have a fully usable mouth that can open very wide. My bunny suit also has a very openable mouth, though the buck tooth could get in the way a little. That could turn some people on. Two of my other foxes have a mouth that doesn't really open, but there is space about the size of a finger, if someone wanted to push it through hard enough!
My skunk suit has an open face hood, like a kigu, if someone prefers tongue instead of muzzle. I also have an assortment of kigus that are fair game. Once the deed is done, and my muzzle is either fed, clogged or covered, playful smearing is more than welcome, for anyone who feels artistic, or, messy cuddling could happen. If my muzzle clogs, a good bit of shit-lubed thrusting into my muzzle should clear the way! No toilet paper would be needed. Any of my fursuit tails, or plushies, would surely be softer to wipe with than paper, and a whole lot more fun! Some of my plush handpuppets are hungry too!
At any time, wetting or cumming as desired is fine. Soggy or messy fursuit diaper play is always an option too. Any of my fursuits, kigus or plushies is equally fair game, as long as stuff is done in the context of mutual fun. I'm not into abuse or degradation, nor anything that is not pleasurable for both persons. Find the link to my F-List on any of my site profiles to learn about my other kinks. It'll certainly be a bonus if someone is willing to help with some of the cleanup, if needed, but it's not a requirement. It is possible that several of my fursuits could end up very messy at one time, which would probably mean that something extra fun happened!
I've been thinking about having this happen for much of the past five years, and am 100 percent sure I'll fully enjoy it. I spend so much time fantasizing over it, that I'll eventually go nuts if it doesn't happen! So far, everyone who has expressed real interest in this has been from Germany, France, England, Mexico, Japan, or the Pacific Northwest region of North America. The closest of those to me being almost 3,000 miles away. Seriously, about 80 percent of the scat-friendly fursuiters and plushophiles seem to live in Europe, while I'm in the US. My location is in my profile description on most of the sites I use, including FA.
Obviously, I'd want to get to know someone before inviting them into my house for this sort of fun. Maybe something might happen at a future furry con, though I don't attend many of them due to cost. The increased anxiety caused by the darned Covid-19 pandemic, is just making my craving more intense than it might otherwise be. Hopefully, if someone is interested, Covid will finally be over by the time I know the person well enough to have fun with.
I still am not putting this out on my main profile. You likely found this by clicking on a scat related link. Those who are not into scat will hopefully not do that. I'll answer any questions from anyone who asks, however, if someone appears to be a trouble-maker, I'll just as promptly ignore them. I look through the profile, gallery and faves of everyone who talks to me. You can reply directly to this journal, if desired. But, be aware that other users may be able to see your replies if you don't use private notes. Either way is fine by me.

Thousands of brown things on my floor :(
Posted 10 years agoI was just doing what any normal raccoon cub would be doing - eagerly eating sweet stuff. I had one of those jumbo four-pound bags of Raisinets (chocolate-covered raisins) sitting next to me near my computer as I was eating them. The bag accidentally flopped over from it's own weight and the entire contents spilled onto the floor. Every single piece spilled out of the bag, because it flopped perfectly upside down. I hate eating anything after it falls on the floor, but this was a nearly full, and quite expensive, bag of Raisinets. I can't waste all those wonderful yummy bits.
Ugh! I managed to get all of them back into the bag. Luckily, it's only 65°F in here at the moment, and the chocolate is pretty hard, so I don't think much, if any, floor dust stuck to it. I came pretty close to saying what it looked like when it happened though. And yes, there were probably a few thousand Raisinets to pick up. Four pounds is an awful lot of them.

Ouch!
Posted 11 years agoI mashed my finger. I was doing something myself that I should have waited for help with. While trying to fix the floor in my attic, I had to pry up a 4x8 sheet of plywood. Well, I had it part way up and it slipped. My left pointer finger was right on the line between where the piece fell, and where the next piece was. It smashed my finger and the skin on the end burst like a little balloon and started gushing blood. Even though it smashed pretty thin, I don't think I broke it.
I'm surprised it wasn't as painful as it sounds, at least at first. It was covered in black dust from my 125-year-old house, and mixed with blood that wouldn't stop. I got it all washed up now, which hurt a lot more than the accident itself, and the bleeding is stopped. Luckily, I had a tetanus shot two years ago, so I should be safe in that area. It looks pretty gross, but it is clean with a layer of Neosporin on it. I know, I shouldn't have been working a two-man job alone in my attic on Easter, but the work needs to be done before it starts getting too hot up there, and finding help is darn near impossible. Luckily, it was on my left hand, and I'm right-handed.
