Anthrocon '08

The happening place to be. Unless you go somewhere else that's more stimulating.

In Oct 2005 I went to Conifur at Seatac. I met Seth (Buddies In Big Places) Triggs. I also met Laura "Longtail" Blacksin(Apollo 9, Gemini Bright, Coons). I also met "Uncle Kagi" and saw his great drinking-dialogs with 2 the Ranting Gryphon.

Unfortunately Conifur is Kaput. But I'll keep my eyes open. I'd really prefer a small con to a large one. Further Confusion is probably the largest one I would dare.
Dude, I was at Conifur 2005. Perhaps you saw me there. This feels familiar; has this come up before?

Seth drove us around when jtigerclaw and I were at FurFright in Connecticut just last year. Uncle Kage said I was firm and he came to our party. He left a wine glass in our room and I took it home.

I think we did discuss this before, and I may very well have seen you. I was wearing black jeans 'n plain black tees. A lot of others were too, so the best way to get an idea of what I look like is to cover the muzzle part of my avatar and imagine human ears instead of lupine.
Longtail did that portrait of me and did a fine job.

I spent a lot of time talking to her and Seth, which was my prime goal for attending conifur. I'm older than most of the fan-base, so most of the time I rubbed shoulders with the smaller, older crowd. I'm a little self-conscious about these things; I am afraid of being pegged as a creep.

But I like fur and manga and anime' and I'd rather be enjoying this stuff than talking about football and investments at some country club....although I like golf too.

So is anyone having a really hard time planing for this, or is it just me?

Unless the flight gets cancelled, I'm set. Why, what's the problem?

And a chair just in case they get rid of those just to cut costs.

I don't know about a problem. Its dumb, but somethings just stressing me out to the end.

I just need help, or an open ear.

I don't think I would have so much a problem, if it didn't cost so much, and if I didn't live so far away.

Wooo, 10 days. Can this thing come any faster.

I think what I'm excited about is seeing a new city. My sister's boyfriend and his mom both love Pittsburgh and say its an awesome city. So I'm kinda buzzed mainly about that.
