'Lo there all of you wonderful beautiful people, and welcome to a bug's metaphorical birthday!

Exactly a year ago now, I became a furry. It was a very impulse thing I did late at night while dealing with some stressful times, and in an admittedly embarrassing state of apathy, I just looked up a "furry", made an account, posted a tune, then went to bed with the intention of not going back. Hey guess what, I ended up going back, to find that not only did it have views, but had actually gotten a favorite, too! I remember how seeing that made me feel really warm inside, and from that point on I was really glad I made that impulse decision! I made my fursona a spider, which I think fits who and how I am quite comfortably!

Fast-forward to today, I am now the happiest bug in this community! In my year here, I've made such amazing friends who have touched my heart and made me feel so very warm, not to mention everyone who's shown their support for me! I've never felt so happy and accepted-like as I have in my time here, and it's with a lot of genuine delight and love that I thank each and everyone who've made me feel so at home here. I truly feel really lucky to have been able to be a part of this community, one I never expected to see myself so invested in!

Thank you all so much, really. You're all such wonderful people, you are! Especially you! You're awesome!
