On Fur the More Numba 1
12 years ago
Fur the More was awesome. AWESOME.
There were more attendees than we expected, the atmosphere was amazing, the hotel loved us, and as far as I'm concerned NO DRAMA.
Overall, just being there in the suite or walking the hallways gave me a good vibe. Fellow furs just seemed so HAPPY. I don't often feel this at cons. At furry cons and anime cons alike I usually have fun but you can feel this sort of, undercurrent of stress, at times agitation, and exhaustion from running around. Which isn't to say this con was stress free for everyone, Kit n' crew worked their asses off but...
I dunno. Like I said, you didn't really feel it. I always felt a sense of relaxation.
...True, I was pretty much sitting in a room the whole time, but again it felt good and it was super fun chatting with those who came in and out for a break and a snack.
I talked to people I see at other cons but don't usually speak with for whatever reason, and I met new friends! ...This means even more friends who live hours away from me but eh xD It was wonderful. So many hugs and smiles lol *sounds cheesy*
I bought two commissions, both of Remedy (the peacock-tiger). Got to bump elbows with the GoH at a special dinner, Clockwise Creatures specifically, and they were so, so sweet, I felt really lucky sitting there and getting to talk to them. ...And I'm glad they didn't seem to judge me on my awkwardness of handling a fancy dinner like fff why so many forks OOH BALLS OF BUTTER!! Haha xD
Um, what else, pretty much what I got is gushing about the con. Lol. I'm not ashamed to admit I kind of had a tear rolling down my face at the closing ceremony. JUST THE ONE THOUGH.
My only 'regret'? I wish I'd drawn a couple more gift badges, buuut I have some post-con art specifically that I want to draw, so it's okay ^^
So, yes. Wonderful weekend. But hell do I miss
and crew :( Ah well.
Next year I hope to staff again, I really want to continue being involved in this con even if it's just the littlest bit!

That thing with the beef stick OMG LOL. That was amazing xD I'd like to see you hit a cereal box sometime too....8D I also wanna see the raptor telling someone "NO NO NO!" *ROLLS*
Getting to hang out was awesome, so many times I barely get to hang out with people at cons anymore cause they're all on staff... xD I guess the answer to that is to just BE staff!
YEA YOU WEAR THAT BADGE
