SO, this past weekend was my first experience with a fur con. I've been to five anime con's and didn't expect what i got out of MFF at all. With a con like ACen most of the people that you encounter aren't really all that nice or friendly. Out of every two hundred people you run into or walk past, maybe seven of them will communicate with you in some way. I've only made friends with people and actually hung out with them outside of the con once. I'm not really close to them, and I didn't even get to hang out with them the next year...granted that following con was insane, but I've actually lost a lot of my passion for anime cons. The size itself has really ruined things for me.
The difference that I noticed with MFF was that EVERYONE is nice and the ratio of people that communicate with you are greater than that of an anime con...Even though i didn't have a full or partial fur suit a friendly dog pulled me into the parade. it was fun and i've never had that kind of attention at acen. I even made friends with someone who i will never forget. You did more for me than you think you have Dusty. I also owe a lot to my buddy Toast, without him I would never have grown the way i have in the last week. I had been planning on making a move across the country, but maybe i have a few reasons to stick around now.
Perhaps i can begin to trust people again. That would make my life so much easier...With that being said, I'm going to log off for the night. I'm tired and I have to go job searching tomorrow...I needs moneys...
