Adventure awaits
11 years ago
I can barely contain myself. So much has been planned for the upcoming months. I love this fandom! I've made some really great friends. There was a time when I hated the weekends because it was the time I was away from my work colleagues, and I generally just moped about alone online all day. Now I can't wait to see the end of the week because I get to hang out with my furry friends who are always up for doing stuff. It's really had a huge impact on me. You guys are all truly great and mean a lot to me!
For so long I'd avoided this and missed so much and suddenly it all changed over just a few months. Every weekend has something parties, furbowls, sking, cons, or just hanging out. And yet as amazing as its been the rest of the year offers exponentially more for both furry stuff and work.
I've only ever been out of the country for a short weekend trip to see a friend in Vancouver while I was still in college (at that time you didn't need a passport to go to Canada). This year if all goes as planned I will see 5 different countries: Canada, Germany, Mexico, Honduras, and Belize all doing furry stuff with my new found friends. A year ago I would have never dreamed of this, and that's only some of what's coming up. I can't begin to imagine what these experiences will be like normally let alone in a fursuit with a bunch of furries. It's going to be like some crazy amazing dream.
And it's all happening so soon:
Next week I'll be at Furnal Equinox in Toronto, Canada with Battle, Tolt, and Silver.
Later in March I go to GDC in San Francisco for work
May I'll finally be getting my fullsuit, and by then many of my friends will have theirs as well. Crazy antics will undoubtedly ensue. My company is also moving downtown to Station Square with a beautiful view of the city.
July will be the first Anthrocon where I supersponsor, the first I'll really get to suit (last time really doesn't count when I couldn't see an inch in front of me without glasses/contacts in a partial), the first time I'll have a fullsuit, and the first time I'll be staying at a hotel there (and the Westin at that).
Aug will be Eurofurence where I'm also supersponsoring and will be the first time I've ever been overseas. This year is in Berlin at the enormous Estrel hotel (apparently the largest in Europe)
Oct will be WPAFW at Boyce Park and if its anything like last year it'll be great
Nov will be the Furry Cruise. My first time ever on a cruise, and with some good local furry friends. This accounts for Mexico, Honduras, and Belize. Not bad for a guy who didn't have a passport till a few months ago.
There will be many furbowls, and undoubtedly much other fun in between too. It's been an amazing time and only getting better. Thank you all! *hugs*

Furry cruise will be awesome!
It's looking like a lot of fun for all of us!
