Goodnight, Sterling Heights.
I'll never forget everything you've done for me, whether you knew it or not. Nothing could ever replace you or the memories - everything I do is because of you.
You were the best in my mind, and you always will be.
Thank you for everything, and be well.

Flew out to Hollywood with @pigmask.poky over the weekend to meet the Five Nights at Freddy's gang! Well worth the trip, I had so much fun and it was such a joy to see these amazing creations in person. The dedication and skill in them is very apparent.
I wore my purple evening gown (of course) with golden accessories featuring golden rabbits. Since this was at a theme park I didn't think it wise to bring a purse, so I tried my best to make a fanny pack go with my outfit lol.
I'll be wearing this (albeit a bit more polished) to the movie premiere as well and I'll take photos of my accessories then.
My Spring Bonnie / Yellow Rabbit (heavily Muppet-inspired) puppet! He came with me to the FNAF 2 screening event in Columbus.
He is fully lined with poseable palms/fingers and his ears have a simple cable-control system to raise and lower. I matched his lining to his bowtie.
I put around 40 hours into him and I still want to improve him. I feel I can do better for his facial features or shape of his head. I am happy with how his torso came out.
Photos 1-5 courtesy of @jocazzi who came with me!! It was a blast!

Various snapshots from May-August. Most have nothing to do with each other.
Car, cats, Oddities Expo, ever-elusive photos of myself, so on and so forth.
Last is mid-dancing - oh, nearly resting - from a distance, while the neon lights do no favors. Horrible quality. Let's post it! 💃
I have done a lot this summer, and still not nearly enough.
Lots of projects happening... I'll post someday.
Oddly, it seems Instagram doesn't host the original version of this song, rather, two live versions!

My childhood Pizza Hut, which sadly closed some years ago, is now an Indian restaurant. 😊
I was very happy to hear this, and even more surprised to find they have CEC booths as their seating!
They painted the window frames the same color as the booth siding, using red tablecloths that really tie the look together.
If you ask me, they integrated these booths much more beautifully than CEC did.
These are a bit old, I forgot to post them.
The food is very good too, and the workers very kind. I'm happy I can return to this place again.

Sprout update (in the form of a post, rather than a story!) ❤️
Surgical photo warning, Pic 2 is a photo of her incision the day she came home. Pic 1 and 6-8 were taken today, and you can see how well she is healing 😊
She has been healing extraordinarily well from her amputation surgery. She's very happy and already walking quite well on 3 legs! She's been confined to my bedroom during this time, so that she doesn't hurt herself while she heals.
It's been a 24/7 job caring for her (she can be left for periods of time, of course) but I've spent as much time as possible by her side. There's been a lot of mess while she learns how to function and get around again, but she's family to me so it's not a problem at all.
The first few days were difficult. She (understandably) did not understand what was happening, and she would yowl when looking at her lack of leg. It was very hard. (She was not in pain, don't worry. She has been on quite a bit of pain medication and sedative.) Now, she doesn't take notice and has been acting as usual ❤️🩹
She's finally on her way to using the litter box well on her own again, without making too much mess, which I am very proud of her for.
All in all she is doing very well and there's been no signs of infection or issues with healing. I think the vet did a wonderful job with her incision as well. It's very clean.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts, well wishes, and prayers. Sprout thanks you too ❤️
She gets her staples out at the end of this week!
If I haven't messaged or responded well these past few weeks, I do apologize. It's been a lot of work and I haven't had much energy for socialization.

I spent a chunk of last night playing with dozens of spiders along a bridge. I believe I counted 46, though I suspect there were many more than that ☺️
The large one in the video was rather curious. She crawled onto my hand when offered for a few moments. ❤️
