Hello everyone! Good morning! Happy Saturday and I wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? I hope things are well, and how is the weather where you are? Are you experiencing a winter wonderland, a white christmas? I hope so, here we're having a christmas in flames, because is it hot in here, OH MY GOD GUYS! Maybe that's the reason I've been slacking off for most of the week, I didn't write on my blog unfortunately, which sucks, I'm so excited for December though, and I'll try to make this month a good one, because it's Christmas time, the greatest time of the year! It's gonna be great, I hope! Thank Goodness for it!



I know I've been slacking off this Thanksgiving week, what a wonderful week filled with thankfulness and joy, but today I wanted to come by and do a post to say Happy Birthday to my wonderful friend Graeme, aka Hue, aka Monsieur Seals, Monsieur Seals because he likes Seals, and I like Seals, and Seals are amazing, and so is he, the best human being out there, he is amazing, always by my side, always kind and happy to see me, he accepts me for who I am and I'm really thankful for it, what a way to finish the Thanksgiving season, wishing happy birthday to my amazing friend! He is extremely talented, he does awesome videos on Twitter, his pictures on Instagram are always great (follow him there at @huegramtwitch) his kittens Phoebe and Daphne are amazing! I made this fanart to Hue recently and I hope to meet him one day! Happy Birthday Hue!


This month I will try to do some poetry if I can, do some art, do some stories if I can, I do have plans, let us see if they'll go around as planned or not! It's Christmas time as I said, the greatest time of the year, and I cant wait for this new round of thankfulness and gifts! And with this post we wrap November up! Good afternoon to you! See you next time dear reader, you are the best!
