For the Equestrian dates, I made use of a calendar system another MLP fan over on DeviantArt had created.
Now then, the biography. I’ll present it as a bullet point list otherwise this would be a very very long description. It’s already long enough that people on mobile devices have to swipe scroll. >_>

Erin uses social maneuvering to coax (or perhaps blackmail) him into attending an early birthday party on April 30th, 2020. To avoid looking like a total jerk, he relents and agrees. The party included a short binge of the first season of MLP up to “Winter Wrap Up”, ending at 2 AM on May 1st.
Cutie marks appear on James’ outer thighs later on the afternoon of May 1st while he napped in the foreman’s trailer at work. He believed someone pranked him, but nobody stepped forward.
The transformation into a Pegasus pony officially began on May 2nd with unexplained hair growth and standing on his toes. It had completed on the morning of May 4th.
Looks great
