Well, FC and VF were a total blast.
I wish I could get into details, but I honestly really suck at just sitting down and writing post con journals. So I'll just say this. Thank you EVERYONE for both cons. FC was a large and new experience. I have never been to a convention that large and it was great to be at "the big con everyone else is going to".
FC was so exciting! The panels were pretty non existent for me and I enjoyed the con for mostly just walking around and seeing new faces. I got alot of photos with suiters I thought I'd never meet. Thank you to everyone for a wonderful time!
VF gets more amazing every year. Going from a big con to a little con is a very educating experience. I've learned that attendance numbers doesn't mean shit when it comes to having fun. Yes, it is amazing to be in these MASSIVE furpiles, but I had a furpile at VF that was just as fun. :3 VF was great cause I had all my friends with me and many more I haven't seen for a year. I had alot of fun fursuiting in general, as well as trying new things like Kuhori's harness, a casual furpile, and DRUNK FURSUITING. Seriously, that was amazing doing it again.
I hate to condone the use of alcohol, especially while in fursuit, but it really helped me open up and become an active and friendly performer! THose who saw me in the lobby for that 30 minutes sunday night will know that. XD I expect to do it alot more, for sure at conventions.
So thank you EVERYONE for a great time in San Jose and Vancouver. :) But now, onto my future convention plans. I have some changes to announce:
So Further Confusion is now cancelled. 2014 was my last. Why you ask? Not why you'd think. My wife's birthday is on the 15th, and this year it was doable. HOWEVER, I found out that every year her birthday creeps deeper into the convention weekend. To a point where I feel I have to choose between disappointing my wife on her birthday EVERY YEAR, or simply canceling the con. My wife didn't pressure me AT ALL with this choice. I decided it was for the best. ALSO another reason I am canceling FC is to FINALLY ATTEND MWFF!! Yes!!! That other reason is because MFF now has a new date that's mid December instead of Mid November. I could never go before because of that, and now I can go. And honestly, I feel MFF would be a step up over FC. FC is fun, but MFF would allow me to see alot more furs as well as furs I have NEVER met before at any convention.
So yeah. FC is out, MFF is in! I am also sad I will NOT be at BLFC next week. I can only do so many conventions each year, guys. I'm sorry. :( HOWEVER, I am pretty sure that in 2015 I am gonna trade BronyCAN for BLFC. I just can't miss out on Reno any longer. Every furry I know and their uncle goto BLFC. I feel I am missing out. However, I really want to attend more pony conventions. Well, at least last year I did. My interest in the brony fandom is fading from what it used to be due to SHITTY writing this season.
SO! That's my convention news update! More to come later! Keep an eye out on my Tumblr for VancouFUR photos soon! I'm still trying to organize them all. :)

I am super jealous of those who are able to go to BLFC! I contributed art for signs/posters and mailed in my show but it is not that same as going D: . Flights were too much from where I live.
MFF is an AMAZING CON! I am going this year too even if I can't be a dealer. (speaking of if you need a room hit me up because I am booked)
It is in a nice hotel and there was plenty to do to with lots of nice furs :). It is like the only con we will drive 24 hours to so far.
