::trows beignet-shaped confetti!::

YAY! Congratulations on your folder, Katt! Expect to see a lot of Riley in the shop. Kitties like sweets, after all.

:-D

Oooh Ooh! Congratulations!!!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-05-06 02:29 EST

Thanks bunches you guys! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!

I am going to start working..or rather have started working...on the building's visuals and the menu.

Sadly there is one little small thing that is keeping me from really doing it all at this very moment. That would be...

I don't have my computer right now. Sadly it went dead so it's at best buy right now. I am on a borrowed (and I can't download stuff so I am having to use AIM express. Me and it...don't get along. +banghead+ )

Hopefully by Sat. I should have at least a rundown of the building without pretty pictures. Menu is worked on with rather..umm...okay so I am picky!!! I am going through my personal books for things to put up. There will be a little special thing she will have though! What will that be? -gasps- who knows!

I DO!

You will just have to wait and see~

The Hourglass Girl · Date: 2011-05-06 10:24 EST

Congrats on the folder! I look forward to the time when Katt can meet the real Star :) Keep up the amazing work and I look forward to reading more

Elisa Clarke · Date: 2011-05-06 12:01 EST

A special thing? Katt's going to staple those advertisement pamphlets, with Mayu as a model in some kind of whipped cream, all over the city, isn't she?

We see through your deception? ♥♥

Gauge D'Veria · Date: 2011-05-24 09:25 EST

Adorable avatar Katt! Maybe too adorable.

...Nah.

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-05-25 19:11 EST

Thanks Gauge! You are actually one of the many that seem to really like it. I removed the portrait because I was unhappy with it and now I've got the problem..I didn't save my work so I lost the lighting I had done. Urg..Eventually there will be a new portrait so everyone just hang in there!

Also the grand opening has yet to be picked mostly because I am not quite sure about my own schedule atm. I am shooting for next week though so keep an eye open!

Ali al Amat · Date: 2011-06-08 16:11 EST

I'm sure Ali will be a regular customer.

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-06-20 13:07 EST

I wanted to thank all those who have been encouraging and supportive when it came to creating the Bon Bon. Can you believe it's been well over six months since Katt started bringing pastries to the inn? Really took a bunch of shoving to get her to settle down into starting her business.

And Rhy'din's collective waistline has suffered because of it!
^ -snickers- I had to put it in here. I still am laughing over it.

I want to also send a special, great big thank you to Music Is Life for the Katt plushie! It is totally adorable and squishy!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-06-27 14:44 EST

As of June 27th people will find that the Bon Bon is closed and that Katt will not be bringing her daily yums to the inn. It is temporary due to a going storyline. I will make sure to let you know when it is open again which shouldn't be long!

Also thanks to Dean for coming to me with the nifty storyline idea~

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-07-07 17:21 EST

During my 'sabbatical' (mostly due to vacation/allergies/family from out of state/4th/story) I was browsing a few websites I enjoy poking through once in a while and I came across these. Really awe inspiring!

Staff and Schedule added but gawd I feel like I am forgetting something on the schedule. -Sighs-

I am considering adding a few things to the menu so stay tuned for that. And a few posts probably en-route. Need to pry myself off of netflix!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-07-29 02:36 EST

By the by. The Bon Bon will be ran by the NPC - Cordy until Tuesday, Aug 2nd. If anyone wishes to post some sort of interaction with Cordy feel free too. I will gladly post back as her!

Katt will be 'out' until then.

NO! That doesn't mean you can break in and steal the big shiny monster. Katt will hunt you down when she gets back!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-08-05 13:37 EST

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-08-09 13:49 EST

There are going to be a few (minor) changes to the Bon Bon. I have decided to put the Monthly Yum Yum under one thread so not to like massively clutter. Also I am trying to think of uh..names for a thread for pictures and one for music/videos. I'm coming up with a blank for both. -sigh-

OOC About Fright Night and Thank yous

I would like to start out by thanking everyone who attended Fright Night! You guys made it turn out way better then I was hoping for! I hope everyone had fun as that was all I was going for.

I would like to thank FioHelston for giving me the chance to do this event (Even if it was IC!). I had tons of fun!

A big thank you to Fiora Shantalaine for helping me with the event.

To Albion Sepherock I throw an extra special thank you to. For both having patience with me and other reasons. You know why!

To the ones who 'sponsored' prizes both IC and OOC I thank you!

And a extra huge thank you to tall of those who helped encouraged me when I was nervous as hell!

Thank you ALL!

All icons have been sent. If you attended and strangely didn't get one please PM me!

Lurkers (even if for a short period) got a Fright Night Icon too. If you don't wish it just send it back to me :)

Bayliss Cartier · Date: 2011-10-29 18:04 EST

I know I said it before.

But, it was a lot of fun.

And your website was a super awesome touch and so were all the little contests you added in.

Stellar event, Katt!!!

NorseLady · Date: 2011-10-29 19:30 EST

Ditto to what Bayliss's player wrote!

I listened to the spooky music throughout the entire RP. It was great!

Thanks for everything. Well done! :grin:

~S

Fiora Shantalaine · Date: 2011-10-29 20:29 EST

I certainly wish I could've been there IC but am so glad it went off well!

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2011-10-29 21:41 EST

Fantastic party, Katt! :D

Drake Jones · Date: 2011-10-29 21:44 EST

I wasn't there for the party, but congrads for pulling it off. - claps! -

Jonathan Granger · Date: 2011-10-30 02:28 EST

Just tossing my two cents here, as well. Awesome job on the party. It was great fun. :)

Risa Jones · Date: 2011-11-11 17:13 EST

Maybe this year Bon Bon Boutique will consider contributing to Winterfest this year if they can? ;P Either a booth or catering for the Governors ball or whatever works for you?

I'd love to see it part of the Festival! If it's just not feasible however, I totally understand!

Thanks for considering!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-11-15 14:10 EST

I'll have to get back to you on that sugar!

Katt Batten · Date: 2011-12-25 01:57 EST

I want to wish EVERYONE and their families a Merry and Safe Christmas!

Don't drink too much Eggnog!!!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-01 03:04 EST

I know that I haven't been on very much (and what little I was I was on another charrie) with all the holidays..being sick..then the food poisoning (maybe my in-laws are trying to get rid of me?) it has been a really quiet two weeks for Katt. But I still wanted to take the time to shout out to for all those who made this a wonderful year. Thank you for the inspiration and the roleplay! Here is to hoping 2012 will be a blast!

Happy New Year Everyone! ♥

Gypsy Lore · Date: 2012-01-01 05:02 EST

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-05 23:35 EST

She has done it! Her hair..gone! And black! This is why you don't trust katt with trying to dye her own hair. She messes up!

Issy · Date: 2012-01-05 23:44 EST

::Whistles, cat calls::

Wooo! Katt is SMOKIN' HOT! Love the new look!!

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2012-01-08 12:15 EST

ZOMG EMO-KATT! (-_))

Now that the insane gut reaction is out of the way... I like the new look, it seems that Katt has definitely Taken A Level In Badass. (although astute Katt followers know she was always badass when she needed to be)

I'm curious as to what exactly prompted this change. :)

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-01-08 13:53 EST

Break out the wolf whistles!! Katt's looking great!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-08 14:28 EST

Why is it when someone dyes their hair black they think Emo or Goth? -stares up- Black hair happens to look good on some people thank you! -thwaps Ebon-

As for the reason..you will find it out IC!

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2012-01-08 19:58 EST

Why is it when someone dyes their hair black they think Emo or Goth? -stares up- Black hair happens to look good on some people thank you! -thwaps Ebon-
It's not the color, it's the cut and the drastic shift in look. :) If black hair/clothing made one emo, then Ebon would be the Emo King. ;) Ebon's IC reaction would be more like, "Well, that's different."

I dunno how Doran would react.

Really I just wanted to use the (-_)) face. :D

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-09 08:29 EST

Yea! Ebon the Emo King! Specially with his emapthic abilities and stuffs. I warned you the reason for the cut and hair color. For other people they will have to find out IC! So feel special Ebon!

-Wonders how Doran would react. Snickerfits at a thought.-

Anywho..

Chances are Katt's profile pictures might not change for wee bit (as that is *not* her casual clothes but I have no choice in the matter right now.). My harddrive is on its last leg and I am trying to get it to survive long enough that I can get another harddrive and use the old one as a slave in order to rescue all my art program and projects.

So they will be happening just very cautiously.

(-_))

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-14 20:29 EST

LSU and Saints. How disappointed am I...

Sorry, hon.

While I have no idea what the hell happened to LSU, I will thank you for a great game today. You guys played awesome!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-16 13:19 EST

-Swats at Issy- lies! You aren't sorry! -chuckles-

I want to take the time to give a shout out to those who made In the arms of the enemy possible. Yeah..yeah..I know. Katt stole your fighting. The wtfness OOC and IC was totally worth it for me though! ;)

Edward Batten · Date: 2012-01-16 13:48 EST

Personally (and I think Ed pointed this out to Katt), I thought that was a damn clever move by the little minx. So just ignore the WTFness...I'd bet that the ones trying to apprehend Kain would've gotten him in the end, but Katt did it in a much less messy way (well, her dress might not agree with that assessment).

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2012-01-16 21:35 EST

*applause for all involved, but especially for Katt*

Who would dare think of Katt as a naive little baker now?

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-01-17 04:14 EST

Nobody that saw her in action, that's for sure!

Kain Starsong · Date: 2012-01-17 12:57 EST

As the victim of Katt's little subterfuge, I have to say that even I didn't see her vamp-shot coming. Way to go Katt!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-01-17 13:01 EST

Vampiric not Vamp -waves a finger- get it right! She's not a vampire!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-02-07 22:18 EST

Just to let everyone know. I got my laptop back! So the post with Race has been fixed. You can read it here

Also there are new katt plushies. If you want one lemme know! You can see them in Katt's inventory!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-03-12 14:10 EST

Katt Plushies have been distributed but I think I am missing some peoples that were on the 'want' list. So if you don't have one (and I didn't send to you. -apologies!-) and you want one just tell me!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-03-25 20:27 EST

A few notices to be put out there for those who don't know yet:

I apologize sincerely for not having the rest of my posts up for Mors Certa, Hora Incerta. I will have them up by Tuesday evening for sure. As some of you know I've been in a little bit of a bleh state due to a loss of someone close to my heart so it has been somewhat hard to focus on posts. Actually kinda really hard...

Anyways... On to other business!

There are a few new plushies left and for the life of me I forget who I am missing. If you are one such person please tell me! It is driving me bonkers. +banghead+

Lastly.. This coming Friday (31st) I will be taking a leave of absence until around April 7 or 8th. Not sure yet when I will exactly be back. I am heading to DC to enjoy the Blossoms. *Le~sigh* Can't wait! Oh....yeah... and the Smithsonian. So much to do..so little time..
http://www.nationalcherryblossomfestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Meadowlark-page.jpg

And that is all the news I have for you all! Return to your regular scheduled program.

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-03-27 03:05 EST

I would like a plushie, please!

I would love to see pictures of from your trip. Have a safe and fun journey, Kitty Katt. :)

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-03-27 04:26 EST

plushie is on its way ♥

And I will be taking LOADS of pictures. In fact I got a new camera today just for that. And I sorta went nutsy with it. So lets see..

Here is a picture of my boys.

Fuz

TC (sort for The Cuteness)

Fuz and Spot (aka the kitten we've yet to dub a real name on) I tell them "no. don't get in there. we need that for the crawfish we are taking to NC." ....of course they don't listen.

And lastly..Hey the camera has a video! So I taped something I recently found out about Fuz. He does not like the computer!

So yes..when I get back there will be pictures. Probably tons as I happen to love cherry blossoms~

Johnny Storm · Date: 2012-03-29 13:47 EST

Katt,

My daughter tells me the National Arborteum and Bonsai Garden have late-blooming cherry blossoms. Apparently, the trees at the tidal basin are just about done blooming. There's some info here: http://www.usna.usda.gov/

Info about the Cherry Blossom Festival itself is located here: http://www.nationalcherryblossomfestival.org/

Not sure if you've already seen these websites or not.

Hope you have a safe and fun trip and see you when we both get back!

Oh, and the kitties are adorable. :smile:

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-03-29 16:42 EST

Yeah it was a early bloom this year due to the early spring. Which..Yes I am disappointed but I am still going to go check it out.

Thanks to a friend I have tons of SD cards (a total of 60 gb), a brand new fuji camera. He gave me about 500$ in camera gear for this trip :shock:

Thank you Johnny for the info. You be safe on your own trip.

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-03-30 06:26 EST

plushie is on its way ♥

Thank you! :D

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-03-30 08:37 EST

Your welcome, Sha!

Also! Chasing him down wasn't easy..

Tranquil (Shoogs) wanted love so getting him to sit down was nearly impossible!

He likes my explorer though =x

He is my outside cat that likes to come in..eat..beat up on the boys inside..then go back outside like he is all badass -snicker- When me meows it is more like a squeaky toy.

Johnny Storm · Date: 2012-03-30 09:46 EST

We're going to check out the blossoms at the tidal basin today. If I have a chance later, I'll let you know what's up. My computer time is limited, so I can't promise anything.

But... it IS lovely here in VA. Everything is all green and there are quite a lot of trees in bloom. And so far (*crosses fingers*) no allergies!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-04-02 01:52 EST

We will be leaving for DC in the morning. Been enjoying my time in NC. Well all except for the blister on my pinky toe that my new shoes gave me. Someone kicked it and I thought I was about to die it hurt so much! T_T

But we are still alive..still kicking. Can't wait to see DC. Will bring pictures to share!

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-04-02 02:32 EST

Looking forward to the pictures! Hope your toe heals up fast. :)

And don't go off-roading! +eeek+

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-04-04 09:04 EST

Oh no off roading here. A few 5 hr energies and was good. Funny enough? The first day off the metro there was some woman there giving away 2 bottles for free.

The internet is sucky at this hotel. They gave me a password but it doesn't work. I get like 30 min on internet before I get 'found' and kicked off. -huffs- And loading pictures on my photobucket is nearly impossible.

Otherwise ...a few 'ickies' here and there but things are fun!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-04-07 10:29 EST

Home. I gots it! Never been so happy to see my own bed!

Johnny Storm · Date: 2012-04-07 10:52 EST

Welcome home! Glad you made it back safe and sound. :)

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-04-07 16:17 EST

The trip was both fun and a train wreck. We all got some form of sickness. In fact after I posted that last one I ended up in the bathroom throwing up. I got food poisoning. -_-

I got a few pics but not as many as I would of liked due to someone bumping into me and that new camera hit ground (ruined. The lens won't even focus in and out).

Lots of walking and just too much to squeeze into four days. We are an exhausted lot!

Pictures I'll be offering around sometime tomorrow..I think.

P.S. It is good to see you got back home safe and sound too, Johnny.

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-04-09 03:43 EST

Welcome back!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-04-09 22:58 EST

Thank you Rhiannon!

Now with Beltane announced during the meeting.. I felt the need to quote something that made me giggle in my drink...

Kazzy Hart: ::The Beltane announcement cheered her a little. She snickered quietly:: Where are we going to find a virgin in this city to be May
Queen? ::Clamps her mouth shut with much force after the one juvenile comment::

♥ Kazzy. Thank you for the giggle!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-05-30 14:31 EST

I just witnessed something today that just..surprised the bejesus out of me.

I am in walmart buying some milk and a few things. Standing in the fast check out line I have a woman in front of me with a kid. She's got about 35$ worth of clothes and a few snacks for the boy. Well this woman who looked to be in her 60s came up to the woman and asked 'would it be okay if I pay for this' and she had a blue card in her hand. I thought..she was cutting in line to put some money on a card. Which you know is cool. I would of let her cut me too for something so simple. Well the woman in front of me said 'sure go ahead' and the older woman went up to the cashier and pointed to the other woman's items "I'm paying for that". Both me and the woman in front of me were like..'wha?'. Just out of the blue, the woman in front of me didn't know the elderly woman..and the elderly woman paid and just left. Me, the woman in front of me, and the cashier were just like 'whoa..'.

Seriously..whoa..!

Elisa Clarke · Date: 2012-05-30 15:12 EST

That's pretty wild. There's some television show I saw being promoted about people doing that kind of thing. Actual Millionaires!... right now, I don't remember what it's called. Wow. That's just crazy cool.

Lucius DeAuster · Date: 2012-05-30 15:33 EST

It's good to read that there are still some good people in this world.

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-05-31 08:20 EST

That's pretty awesome. There's a story about a man that bought up the remaining clothes, etc. from K-mart that was going out of business and donated them to a shelter. Restores the faith in humanity.

Happy Father's day to all the Dads out there!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-06-25 17:46 EST

Alrighty! For the next few months I am randomly going to be putting something on the auctions to help 'earn silvers' for event Icons. Of course donations are welcome but this is sort of a give-give type thing.

I am not auctioning off the icons in the auctions but rather something that comes with winning the icon. A chibi of your very own! That is right! If you win the auction I will draw you your very own chibi of which ever of your characters you want. It is one chibi per winning.

Examples (Done last month):

First Auction is going on now. See HERE for details.

Seirichi · Date: 2012-07-05 07:01 EST

Holy crap I feel bad for missing this post. Those chibis are just ADORABLE! Noticed Audrey's during the elections and wondered where it came from. Soooooooo cute. Keep up the amazing work!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-07-05 23:11 EST

Aww thank you Seirichi! I am going to be doing 4 more auctions. I am considering doing all 4 auctions at once or do them one at a time. So..opinions on that would be appreciated!

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2012-07-06 22:24 EST

I think it's a good idea... might get more winners. :) Or you may end up with one or two taking them all. ;)

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-07-11 12:11 EST

I want to thank everyone who have been nothing but encouraging and cheering me on. (Specially during Beltane!)

I want to thank everyone for their warm words and 'yay Katt is back' comments. (Even if some of you scared me with your excitement! :shock:)

Thank you to those who have read and kept up with Mors Certa, Hora Incerta

Special thanks for Brian for making the past six months interesting (not only for me but for everyone!) and to Edward for his patience cause I know I ask a lot of questions!

Just..lots of thanks and hugs to you all. You know who you are! Yes..You. You right there. HUGS! Just..accept it. :lol:

Okie..squishiness is over. Now..Apologies are in order..

Currently I am working on a chibi for the winner of the Auction and have yet to put up the remaining four. The reason for this is because..well..Me and my scanner are having issues so I am trying to get that fixed before I start putting more up and back-ordering myself into a deep hole =x

Will get things back and running hopefully ASAP! I will make sure there is a notice up for the new auction so don't worry!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-07-21 02:49 EST

As I have written to Venus' player in a PM there is no current B.B.B building. The post/thread is on hold until things are cleared up. Thanks guys!

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2012-07-21 21:25 EST

I must admit that Venis's post threw me for a loop since Katt was in RDI, the other night, talking rebuilding and reopening the Bon Bon in the future.

Venis Jordianthan · Date: 2012-07-22 00:13 EST

As I said to Katt in a Private Message ...My apologies. I miss read, or missed something, somewhere. I have 4 forums that I keep up with, and occasionally, I forget details for one or another. I shall amend the post or even perchance relocate and edit it. So sorry for the mistake. And thank you for letting me know.

Venis Jordianthan · Date: 2012-07-22 00:40 EST

Ok, amendments made. Now, pending Katt's approval of the changes, the thread is once again open. So would anyone care to feed one of the God's of Rhy'Din? LOL All kidding aside, I do again apologize for my mistake. And thank you for letting me know.

Aullere · Date: 2012-08-28 13:59 EST

Hunker down, kiddo...!!!

Thanks to a nice left turn, he missed us, just when we thought he would run the RNC off. Close but no ceeeegar.

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-08-31 15:28 EST

Well Isaac was blissfully uneventful for me. However..this morning wasn't...

So...Yeah..RDI... I come in on Katt like everyday to find some guy claiming to be an officer trying to 'arrest' someone. Of course..you know..Katt gets in the way, makes a call to the Watch and Fio to let them know. Etc etc. Nothing out of the norm right?

Yeah..no. This guy had me facepalming when he PMs me that katt would find her dagger and money missing. Which..Kinda leads to a problem since Katt has none on her which leads to a very..very..face to table conversation.

This guy obviously does not know the community...and called us..Fake RDI. FAKE RDI!!!

Anywho..for your entertainment..

Kilak: ::she notices her pouch and dagger are missing::

Katt: No..she wouldn't. First of all he's not got close enough to her to do anything and secondly she carries no dagger and as for money..Katt doesn't pay for her drinks int he inn so no reason to bring any. And if he did try to touch her? He'd find himself found because she *would* of noticed. She doesn't exactly let people close to her.

Kilak: ::she stepped bewteen him and lleen then turned to the bar as he left he is a master theif for hire so he is very good but if you do not wish to rp then so be in make candies or what ever it is she does

Katt: Mkay first of all she never turned her back to him. Never would on a stranger. Secondly..Katt would of known he was close to her by any measure for several reasons. Sleight of hand would of had her shoving something in his eyeball. Katt makes pastries for a hobby. She also *knows* everyone in rhydin. Including the Gov, the Gov's Council, The Watch, The Knights, and Katt IS apart of the Rhydin Protection. She isn't some child.

Kilak: sorry didnt know you were a god chacter

Kilak: my bad

Katt: .....

Katt: God character? Seriously?!

Katt: Says the one who was taking OOC info (profiles) IC?!

Katt: You got a lot of NERVE

Katt: Specially if you didn't notice..Katt DOES know everyone

Katt: that is because I play..and katt has been around a hell a lot longer then you

Kilak: always have it is what makes him the best theif

Katt: Learn to research some before you say some shyt like that

Kilak: but since you are so amazing there is no point rping with you to stroke your ego have a nice day

Kilak: maybe here in the fake rdi

Katt: Wow. Simply..wow

Katt: Katt is a 18 yr old character. She was in the AOL rdi too

Katt: but yeah..why don't you do me a little favor Hm?

Kilak: a god charcter doesnt age as she is immortal

Katt:http://rdi.dragonsmark.com/forums/viewforum.p hp?f=224

Katt: read around some of that.

Katt: no..

Katt: ageless . Physically she does not age. She does, very much age.

Katt: she is no freaking way immortal

Kilak: you play her like she is

Katt: You speak on nothing you have no knowledge of

Katt: -gestures to the link- have a gander through that if you will.

Kilak: why did she turn around and see you!!

Katt: You need to realize. You are in the wrong darling. Period. Not only did you blend ic/ooc by yoinking info off of profiles but you also do not know what you are speaking about. You should probably..I dunno..kinda watch around. I am no way playing a god character. She is very much apart of the community and has been for a long while.

Kilak: if you dont play like a god why are you so affended?

Katt: Did you not notice..Everyone in the room Katt? Hm? Every single one of them. Oh pardon the child doesn't.

Katt: I'm offended by your words and by the fact..amusingly..you think you are right.

Kilak: just trying to start a story but since you are having so much fun playing food maker I will bid you good day

Katt: Uh..I want you to take the time to read through our IM and spot where you went wrong. But yes. Good day to you.

Kilak: well its all about whos wrong and right

Kilak: it doesnt matter as you are being a hardass to rp with I do not wish to rp with you

Ileen McGowan · Date: 2012-08-31 15:38 EST

The whole thing was soooo incredibly nutty, both IC and OOC. If he woulda played his card's right, it would have been an awesome scene. But alas, he went over so many lines, it was positively insane.

I know it gave you a headache, Katt but you handled it superbly. :)

PS> Don't forget, Katt's a little girl. That cracked me up. :lol:

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-08-31 16:08 EST

Swear Katt wanted to strangle him with the shackles he was going to use on Ileen. Really she wanted to..Her restraint is something else yeah.

NorseLady · Date: 2012-08-31 16:44 EST

Kilak: but since you are so amazing there is no point rping with you to stroke your ego have a nice day
Katt player -- I missed the memo where you said you wanted to get your ego stroked so come one, come all to RP with you. Please post that under Playables the next time. I check those every single day!

Kilak: maybe here in the fake rdi
Where's the real rdi located?

Kilak: it doesnt matter as you are being a hardass to rp with I do not wish to rp with you
Yes, Katt player, miracles really DO occur. I told you those butt flexes do wonders for the gluteus maximus!

:cool:

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-09-01 16:02 EST

And it seems Mors Certa, Hora Incerta has been concluded but not the end of Katt's dealings with Raven. To those of you that have read through this very interesting chapter in Katt's life. A big thanks to Race, Lup, and Edward's players for participating and adding in their personal touches (I still crack up at the 'f*ck a duck') and my most humbled thank you to Brian for involving me in his storyline.

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2012-09-01 20:37 EST

Thank you for the cute icon! I had a great time RPing Shy at the Grand Re-Opening. I really, really like the pics you have of her new Boutique!

Thanks, too, for all the work you put in on RP events! You deserve a rest just like Riley's player!

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-10-28 17:39 EST

Aww thank you! I am glad you guys enjoyed it :)

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-10-31 22:14 EST

I want to wish everyone a Happy and Safe Halloween

I also want to give another special thank you to those who came to Fright Night 2012. I had been really worried that it wouldn't go really well and sadly I had lost 1/4th of what I had planned for that night due to my computer melting down during that week. Luckily I had the majority of it already ready and prepared on my laptop.

Another thanks goes out to Fio who was kind enough to do the music for me. Thanks grrl for the awesome music listing!

There are a few things I still need to do. Like the contest winners. Bet you are wondering who won those right? Those will be announced in playable along with the prizes sometime before Monday. Icons will be distributed once I get them in.

My many thanks again to everyone.

Katt Batten · Date: 2012-11-22 14:54 EST

Bad News. I am out of them. Yep. The ones I ordered were gone in less than a day! Swoosh! Gone!

Good News again. I'm ordering more! So if you want one leave a note here, a poke in PMs, or my AIM. That way I know how many to order!

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-06-13 07:06 EST

As a few of you know I have been in some pain since last Thursday. Anyways..Monday I was making dinner when this pain suddenly tightened my stomach and I couldn't breath past a few painful, short breaths. It got so bad I couldn't sit still, couldn't walk, sit, bend over..nothing helped.

Went to the ER and was the only one there. The woman behind the counter was so casually asking me questions and I could barely answer... Anyways..A hour later the doctor finally got to see me.. He was asking me the same questions as her. It got to the point I was so much in pain and frustrated that when he asked me 'on a scale of 1 to 10, how bad is your pain?' I said "I'm HERE." ...mostly because I can tolerate quite a bit of pain. This I couldn't. I saw him put a 10. (we later laughed about it. he was in no way offended).

I was placed in a cloth curtain 'room' from 9 until 1am, given demerol for the pain around 11 (yes I was in pain until then).

Well..my surgeon said they couldn't do surgery because my pancreas is inflamed. He said the number scale for it was dangerously high like he's never seen before. Anyways.. To add to this a gallstone is blocking the way. My gallbladder is full of stones. So they are going to remove that and give me medicine to dissolve the gallstone once the surgery is done.

Since Monday we have been waiting for the pancreas to settle and I've been NPO since then. NPO means I cannot drink or eat. Yeah..I haven't eaten since Monday afternoon! I'd kill for a cheeseburger about now.

Anyways..They have been giving me demerol to keep the pain down and finally this morning the surgeon said today was the day so just waiting for him to come grab me.

I'll keep you guys updated but I just wanted to let you know. Thank you all for your thoughts and well wishes.

Issy · Date: 2013-06-13 08:08 EST

XOXO. Thinking of you!

This Dark One · Date: 2013-06-13 10:49 EST

I hope you get better real soon babes. xxxxxx! Think of all the cheeseburgers you can eat when you get out!

Edward Batten · Date: 2013-06-13 12:07 EST

So, since I knew people would be missing you last night because you couldn't be there, I totally had Cyrus say Katt wasn't feeling well and had him deliver a round of Katt-a-Tonics and all the other Jell-o shots so everyone could get plastered.

Which a few people did. Hope that puts at least a little smile on your face.

Hope you get better soon! You have been missed!

Brian Ravenlock · Date: 2013-06-13 12:31 EST

Get better, sweetie. We can't wait for you to get back up an runnin'.

Ebon Ilnaren · Date: 2013-06-14 00:11 EST

That sounds horribly nasty... here's hoping you make a speedy recovery and get to feeling way better soon!

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-06-14 00:22 EST

A little update since my nurse diluted my pain medicine so much that it didn't knock me out...

About noon I was taken into surgery and I won't kid.. I was nervous as hell. Got into the room and the anesthesiologist asked me if i was ready for my 'don't care aid' I kind of nodded and watched as he placed the syringe to my IV. I barely seen him push out half of what was in it before I blacked out. Next thing I remembered I was in the recovery room. I woke up in pain because a nurse was talking and kept bumping my gurney.

I was taken to my room and about three hours of sleep I was awake and walking across the room (the need to use the restroom is a great motivation!). I am still in mild pain from the incisions but overall it went well. I have 3 1/4 inch cuts. They had to keep moving my IV port around because the first nurse did a crappy job and my hand was swelling up. The second was jarred out by accident by a Aid moving by (blood..everywhere). That was an attempt in each of my upper hands. Right now they have it in my inner elbow of my left hand.

Overall I am recovering. Don't know when they will all me home but OH MY GOD they let me have a small glass of Ice and I swear it was like I was in haven.

I'm still kicking so you haven't got rid of me!

Thank you all for your get well wishes, thoughts, and speedy recoveries.

-snickers at Ed- Getting everyone snooked in Katt's honor. I find that highly amusing! Hope Cyrus asked for those shots though cause Katt might get cranky with the big guy for stealing her stuff ;)

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-06-14 19:25 EST

Got to have two meals today, liquidy type stuff. Broth. popsicles, juice etc. Even had some tea in there.

Still in a bit of pain and was told that they actually had to up my medication from demerol to something that is 4x stronger than morphine. I can't remember the name of it but that pretty much lets you know how much pain is going on right now.

Found out there was a fourth incision I just didn't see it. Why? Because it is in my belly button! 0.o

Over all I am doing okay. While it hurts I am making walking around. There is a trauma (blood/mucus) when I cough because apparently they had shoved a tube down my throat (which I don't remember tbh) so they are keeping an eye on that. Breathing exercises to breath deep or I chance getting pneumonia. Still up in the air about when I am going home. Could be tomorrow, could be Tuesday. Not sure.

so yeah..still kicking! Just aching the entire way xD

Rhiannon Brock · Date: 2013-06-14 20:30 EST

I'm glad you were finally able to eat something!

Take care of yourself and feel better soon! XXOO

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-08-10 16:03 EST

Just figured I would let people know. The new chibi auction is up! Just click the auctions link!

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-11-01 02:36 EST

I know a few people have already heard this but coming the new year the Bon Bon Boutique will be shutting down. Katt will still baking and still taking orders just on a more personal level and/or for the Gator Grill if Rene will allow it. Still need to talk to him about that. Any thoughts or comments you are welcome to contact me or leave them here.

Alfonso Carlson Avery · Date: 2013-11-01 03:32 EST

I'm sorry to hear the rumors about the Bon Bon's closing were true. Not only did I always think it was a great name for a bakery (and a befitting one for Katt), but it was obvious that a tremendous amount of work was put into it, particularly those images of the layout and floor plans that stand out in my mind (which had greatly impressed me). I remember thinking I had nowhere near that amount of creativity to plot all that out.

I had spoken to you a few times about it closing and it seemed you'd had this in mind for a while. I remember when I started Bad Vibe it was a great idea and it was very fun to work on, but Alain-mun forewarned me it was too ambitious, and he was right for the most part. It was a lot of work for one person! At least it was for me. But discontinuing it and working on other things ended up being the right answer, and I hope you find a similar solution with any new direction you might take Katt in. I hope you've got brighter things on the horizon, and I can't wait to see what you do in 2014.

Katt Batten · Date: 2013-11-07 14:19 EST

d'aww thank you Alfy~

I always did enjoy making lil graphical things and would of likely of made a webpage for the Bon Bon too. There is/was a lot of love behind it and it served its purpose well. But alas.. Katt is moving on. She has a great idea for the building itself that will be put into effect somewhere in Jan.

There is no reason other then it has served its purpose that the Bon Bon is shutting down. Again Katt will still be baking but on a more private/personal level. She will still take requests for wedding cakes or sweet treats if asked.

Will be sad to hear no more Bondage Boutique jokes though XD

Arthour · Date: 2013-11-07 15:23 EST

Katt...What makes you think those will stop? XD It's clear now, what the Bon Bon will be, come January!! XD

And when I say Katt...Should I really be saying Kitty Rider? ;)

Claire Gallows · Date: 2013-12-24 11:47 EST

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thank you for being so wonderful this year <3
