Eurofurence 16 -- Yes, I'm back too.
15 years ago
Went back to work today, but I'm still pretty stoked.
I had a great time at Eurofurence. I suited a lot in the new Adrian fursuit -- he's the first of my fursuits that I'm 100% satisfied with, and I had a lot of fun taking it out. And people's reactions to it seem to justify my judgement ;)
I hung out a lot with my friends from across the pond -- you guys know who you are. I only get to see you once or twice a year, but I treasure the time I spend with you. I also renewed some old acquaintances and made some new ones. Maybe some of them will become friendships over time. For those of you that I didn't talk to, or only talked to shortly -- there will be other times.
I didn't go to any of the stage events, didn't go to any SIG, only hit the art show twice, and hit the dealer's den 30 minutes before it closed for good. I did hit all the fursuit events though -- the group photo, the fursuit photoshoot, and the fursuit parade.
I danced a lot. I'm sure there will be some dorky videos cropping up with a large doggy flailing around.
I had breakfast in suit in the headless lounge -- a combination of getting up too late, realizing that the group photo was on shortly, and not wanting to get out of suit only to put it on again an hour later for the fursuit photoshoot.
My luggage was 3kg heavier on the way back than going there. I figure at least 1kg of that was stale fursuit sweat. (The other two kg was souvenirs from Berlin.)
Favourite moment of the con: Two kids each taking one of my paws during the fursuit walk through inner-city Magdeburg and deciding that they were going to "take the doggy home."
Favourite quote: "Oh my god, that doggy is built like a brick shithouse!"
Why do I have the urge to suit up now?

Just have to find a new place to hang out in again :)
