Yes

Hotel:
The Sheraton Atlanta Hotel

Arrival/Departure:
around 3 or 4 am on Friday morning, getting there between 10 AM and noon

Staying in the main hotel:
Think so

Means of transporation?
I think I'm driving

Sharing a room with?
So basically my real life buddies. :) A few others may join us too, I don't know

Who do you hang out with:
Lots! I'm quite friendly, and will at least talk to just about anyone. I'd love to hang out with , , and a few of my other online friends, but I'm going to make a better effort to hang out with my real life friends more too. I hung out all of last year with an old friend and didn't see them much.

Gender:
Female

Preference:
Bisexual

Relationship Status:
Taken

Open:
I'm open for art commissions if that's what you want. Trades if you want that, but I'd have to accept.

How old are you:
23 (by the time of the con. My birthday's on March 1st)

Are you an Artist:
Yep! Believe it or not, I don't *just* commission art.

Are you a Fursuiter:
No, but I will be one day! Got some great ideas, just need money.

How many Fursuits are you going to bring/wear:
None, don't have one.

Which Characters:
Myself, so I can dance with myself

Any new suits or characters Debuting:
'Fraid not. I tell y'all about my characters well in advance

Attending parties:
If any of my friends end up throwing one, I'll try to be there.

Do you drink:
Yep! Not very much, but I do. I don't really drink fast enough to get drunk.

Do you smoke:
No. Just no.

Can I buy you a drink:
Of course. I would greatly appreciate that. :) I'd rather I knew you first though, and could trust there was nothing wrong.

Can I give you lots of money:
Sure, that would be great. I'd pay you back with art.

Are you attending any panels:
I sure am! I'd like to go to the Whose Line show and Two's show, but those aren't really panels. Once I get a list of what panels there actually are, I'll be able to give a more certain answer.

Stage or public performance:
I intend to enter the talent show and the Rock Band tournament. I'll be playing a song that always reminds me of being furry. And not to toot my own horn or anything, but I'm a pretty good fake-plastic-guitar-player.

How do I identify my self to you:
Say "Hi Dixie, I know you from ____," where _____ can be anywhere from the fatfur community, pregfur community, Second Life, Furaffinity, etc. Tell me a bit about yourself, like your name and some of our common interests, and that should be enough to get me talking. I'm just noting that "hi!" is a greeting, not a conversation starter. I'm gonna need more than that to work with you dear. ;)

Rules of engagement (physical Contact out of Suit):
I love hugs! Though I appreciate people who bathe. If you smell like the devil's armpits, my nose will instinctively curl up. Outside of that, general conversation is great. Do not poke me, it's so annoying. Unless it's once to get my attention, and then only once.

Personality Type:
Truthfully I'm fairly quiet in-person. I speak very softly (think Fluttershy, all you bronies out there), and tend to get talked over. I do best in one-on-one or small group settings while with people with common interests. I'm not much of a partygoer, and while sickeningly sweet and fairly smart I'm not exactly very animated. ^^

How do I know if you're not looking to socialize (angry, busy or upset):
Well hm... good question. Pretty much I'll let you know. I can handle anger, frustration or being upset pretty well, and I hardly ever lash out at people. If I don't want to talk I'll tell you calmly and politely, and hope that's enough. Truthfully though, when I'm at a convention I'm there to have fun and hang out with people. I want to socialize, and I want to avoid drama.

What's the best way to find you:
Look for the buffet. :p Other than that though, just look for the short heavyset girl with terribly frizzy brown hair (I should really get my hair cut and styled before the con) wearing a purple fox tail and Dixie conbadges.

Do you do trades:
Sure, though I'm even pickier about trades than I am about commissions.

Can I touch you:
Depends entirely on the context. I always hug my friends - it's my greeting. But I'd appreciate if poking, flying pounce-tackles, and being all up in my personal space were kept to a discrete minimum.

Can I hug or snuggle with you:
You can hug me! As much as I love snuggles though, I have to decline. I don't think my mate would be happy about that.

How tall are you:
5'5"

Are you nice:
Well sure, I do my best. ^^

Are you cliquey:
I want to say I'm not, but we all are to some degree. We all tend to stick to who and what we already know, and trying new things can be tough. I'm going to try to be around my friends a lot of the time, but I'm always welcoming of new people. I will say, though, that people who are interesting to talk to, well-spoken, well-educated, confident and polite will tend to get a much better response from me than someone who is meek, awkward, and callous.

Can I stalk you:
Please no. That's a crime.

Do you like parties:
Of course I do! Though to quite "as long as there aint any awkward, greasy dorks trying to fuck at it."

If I see you, how should i get your attention:
Say "Hi Dixie, I know you from ____," where _____ can be anywhere from the fatfur community, pregfur community, Second Life, Furaffinity, etc. Tell me a bit about yourself, like your name and some of our common interests, and that should be enough to get me talking. I'm just noting that "hi!" is a greeting, not a conversation starter. I'm gonna need more than that to work with you dear. ;)
(This was copy/pasted from a previous answer)

Can I ask ya to dance with me during the dances:
Sure! I have two left feet though. Playing music has always been more fun to me than dancing to it.

Can I buy breakfast, lunch, or dinner sometime:
I would love that. :)

Can I take a picture of ya:
I'm actually very camera shy. I'll probably let you... but I won't really like it.

Can I kidnap you for *censored*
Please no. You'd have to be the kind of person that wouldn't do something like that for me to be interested in you in the first place. And even then, I'm not available for that kind of behavior.

Are you going to commission art at the con:
I might. I probably shouldn't though. I really need to reduce the amount of money I spend on art. However, one thing I'm doing for certain is taking out to dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe on Friday night, and in exchange she's going to draw art for me. Other than her though, if I run into artists I know or that I discover that are good at drawing fatfurs, pregfurs or blueberries, I might, just might, commission them.

Anything to add:
I had a lot of fun last year with my best friend Sylver, and I know FWA is a great con. I hope this year will be even better though, because I intend to be a lot more active, eat at fancy off-site restaurants less, and not sleep through the important stuff. I don't want to miss out on a whole bunch of stuff like I did last time.

As a last note, if you're going to FWA, comment here so I know! Maybe we'll run into each other then. ^__^
