Heyas~ <3

In short, I'm sort of on a hiatus, but I'll still be around here and there.

I'll still actively participate in breedings and what-have-you, as well as posting in other things when I do have the chance, but I just wont be around as much. (Some have probably already noticed that I haven't been around quite as much as I was last month already. :c) I still have my phone, which I can check things with, and I can also take over my husband's computer when I need to reply or while he's at work/napping to recharge from his night shifts. So, yes, just a heads up on that.

As for the reasons why, if anyone's interested in that...

I believe most know, but for those that don't peek into my journal or found out otherwise, I'm soon expecting a little mini, well, not me, because I'm having a boy, but a human spawn, none-the-less. xD; As of today, exactly, I am 34 weeks pregnant, which translates to a eight and half months. I was pretty determined not to let pregnancy prevent me from doing things, but as I'm getting farther along and the baby is getting larger and more wiggly, well, I spend up to a few hours a day not wanting to move at all from getting repeatedly kicked in the ribs. Which leaves me sore, afterward, even when he settles back down. I'm also at the point where I'm pretty much having to finalize all the preparations for the little one, which becomes pretty tiring. Any time I get out of the house or walk around/clean a lot in a day, I'm exhausted and have to recharge for the rest of the day or even the whole next day.

Now that, that I can still deal with pretty well, outside of the times he's actually moving around a ton or when I feel particularly sore, sick or tired. However, an additional culprit has come around. My computer has been having some issues where my Windows operating system wont start up or function correctly. It sometimes takes trying more than four times to start the computer for Windows to finally start up. Then, however, it often freezes when I stop doing something for even a moment. Say I am typing up a roleplay reply, leave for a minute to grab a drink, and BAM the whole thing is frozen and I have lost my post. I then have to force shut down and try turning it on several times over just for it to come back on and, inevitably, do the same thing. Even that I could tolerate. However, yesterday, it began having issues with my internet. However, our internet, itself, is fine. My wireless connection is strong and stable. However, everything was lagging anyway, but ONLY on my computer. It's come down to needing to get a whole new Windows OS, but that's not something I can afford to do right now, and I can't really repair my current Windows since the disc is old and scratched to all hell now.

So, yeah, as I said, on a bit of hiatus.

Congratulations on your baby child!! :O Good luck with everything; that sounds super tiring but also super exciting. And also good luck with your computer, that's not as exciting.

Congrats, Toxic! I hope he's born happy and healthy for you!

Sorry about your PC problems, I hope you can find a cheaper way to fix it.

I hope everything goes well with the baby! Congratulations, by the way~ ;v;  And I also hope your computer starts cooperating soon, haha. I'm really happy for you; rest up! <3

Preemptive congrats because Freezy is a butt who will doubtless forget when the inevitable topic pops up in Congratulations. XP Don't work yourself sick if you can help it! Rest because it is good for the both of you! And best wishes for a safe and uncomplicated birth.

Sucks that your computer chose NOW to wig out on you, though. Shame! Maybe you can coerce someone into getting it fixed for you as a Christmas present. ;P

Don't forget to take a break every once in a while, Toxic <3 I'm too young to know what being a mom is like, but I'm sure it's exhausting! I'll be waiting excitedly to hear about your boy, and I'm sorry for about the computer problems D : Windows being buggy is why I switched to Macs a lonnggg time ago, haha.
