Dear Journal,

My suspicions were correct! My landlady is indeed pregnant! Very, VERY pregnant! I mean... I know what a female looks like when they're that far along and all, but... she's ready to pop!

Dear Journal,

It started snowing today! The snow coating the town just made it more picturesque! In any case... I returned home and read my books. Both of them cover to cover and over again! I'm almost certain of my suspicions, but I need to be sure before I say anything! I'm off to the store to pick up a few things before the weather gets too much worse! If I'm right and we do get snowed in, this could be a matter of life and death!

Plan ahead!

Dear Journal,

Fortunate Ire delivered the furniture just as he said he would. Even got it back where it belonged! I wish I could have seen my landlady's face when she found her things returned, but... the cloak. I... think she was happy, but can't be sure, as I may have accidentally given her a small heart attack when I touched her shoulder.

Dear Journal,

I left some apples next to my sleeping landlady today, as all her cupboards appeared to be empty. For what reason, I can't be sure but... maybe that has something to do with why she was grazing the other night.

Dear Journal,

I've settled into my new home with a rather strange pony in a large, black cloak. At least I'm assuming it's a pony! She... and again I'm assuming it's female, is so introverted I'm unable to determine anything else about her physiology at this time!

Early this morning I even saw her eating grass in the moonlight! Something is VERY wrong here, and I'm going to figure out what it is!

Respect other's secrets.

Dear Journal,

Today's the day! I'm moving out of Twilight's library and into a place I saw advertised on the Writ Board. I knew she would take it kinda hard, but she may have gone a bit overboard! To be completely honest, I almost called the whole thing off when she started crying. While I know she's just worried about me, I can't stay there forever! These past couple months, I was able to save quite a few bits and it's time I left the proverbial nest!

Dear Journal,

Sorry I haven't been writing in you lately, but doing odd jobs around town isn't exactly what I would call noteworthy. That all changed today as I accepted my first red writ!

Dear Journal,

Today I helped Applejack deliver a shipment to a place called Barnyard Bargains. It's your typical big box store like we have back home. We met the Assistant Manager, a mare named Ocean Breeze. She seemed really nice! Unlike her boss, Filthy Rich! Maybe he just rubbed me the wrong way, but I could tell immediately that he fancies himself more important that he really is!

Dear Journal,

The Apple family invited me to stay the night. That was quite nice of them, as a storm has rolled in. As I write this, sheets of rain pelt against the guest room window and thunder crashes!

Dear Journal,

I've left the hospital and am currently living with the purple unicorn I mentioned in my earlier entry. Twilight seems nice... I suppose. Although every time her horn glows, I duck! Her dragon friend Spike seems much more level headed than she, generally choosing to think before acting! Perhaps I am merely judging Twilight too harshly, as she is letting me stay with her, rent free!

One should always do the right thing! Even if it hurts!

As I translate the story, I'm finding more and more that I have to break some of the chapters up. For example, after my wife and I read the story together aloud (untranslated script version), my daughter wanted to do the same. We came to a chapter in Volume 4 that took us over three hours to read! I went back to check the page count and found that chapter was forty-five pages long! Needless to say, I had to split it up into two chapters. :-)

When I first started translating the story to put on Fim Fiction, I began to wish I had done so earlier! Now I have to go through it line by line! But on the upside, it did give me an opportunity to find spelling errors, punctuation mistakes and read through it again. I'm STILL finding typos, even though I've read through each chapter at least three times!

Just finished writing the finale for Volume 15! Holy crap! I need to get back to translating so I can post more chapters!!! :-)

My artist freelancer "Drawall" just sent me some more pictures. Looks like he's up to Volume 1 Chapter 15! :-D Hopefully he'll have the pictures for the rest of the volume done soon! Although I'm sure I'm not his only customer...
