MFF and other plans
3 years ago
General
For any one going to MFF this week I will be there this year with 
Nikorokumitsero/Aleu.
It's my first con to go to since 2018 (I had one planned for 2020 until everything closed down) and I previously went to MFF in 2014. There looks to be a nice assortment of panels this year though I'm still leaving the possibility open to bailing on the con for part of a day to check out Chicago similar to when I went to FC in 2016 and took a bus out to Happy Hollow Park & Zoo in San Jose for part of a day because the panel offerings were a little lacking for me that day. Beyond MFF I've been doing a lot of dog sitting this month due to my housemates being out of town a lot visiting family and friends, which meant that the holidays have been low key for me so far, but considering a lot of people I know have gotten sick in November it's worked out on not being able to get together with family or friends myself for Thanksgiving.
Unfortunately, I wasn't keeping up with the furry community in the OKC metro area even before 2020 but does any one know of any game groups (board games or ttrpg) in the area accepting new players? We had 3 more players join my group and that often means we have 7 or 8 players if everyone is playing, which is a lot (6 players during the long campaign we were doing meant a lot of downtime sometimes, especially in a group that is heavier on rp) so I've skipped several games for that reason. Due to that and a few other instances I've actually only gotten together with my group twice the past 3 months and one of the times was for a birthday dinner. They're planning to start a new campaign soon (I think 5e but that tells you how little I know of it beyond session zero probably being this weekend) and while I'm sure I could get in even with it being such a large group already I'm not sure I have much enthusiasm for it.
I'm going to be starting to job hunt for something new for next year that can be something I want to make a career out of and not suck most of the joy out of the end of the year holidays like working in grocery or retail does, and I think I'm not going to put in for attempting to get Sunday afternoons and evenings off (if not Sunday itself off) since I'm only loosely attached to my game group these past few months. Unless something really awesome comes up I'm planning to still look within the OKC area, though I'd also still like to get my own place some time next year.
As for anything else I'm really hoping to do a big upload here before MFF as I commissioned a number of pictures over the summer and here during the autumn, as well as finding a few older pieces from the beginning of the year and last year that I never uploaded.

Darn, wish I knew you were going or at least Oby and I would be tempted to go, any other cons planned? We might hit BLFC or DenFur next year. Have fun!

OP
I didn't mean to sit on this so long. I don't currently have plans for one next year but I'd certainly like to do one. MFF was fun (13,000+ people) though we weren't in a hotel that was close enough to walk to the con and the surrounding area isn't as good as AC for food and entertainment options away from the con. The weather was chilly but otherwise wasn't too bad. There weren't any panels that wowed me but there were enough to hold my interest even if I spent a chunk of Saturday and Sunday down in one of the game rooms.
