Following Snackish's example - FurDU Meme!
10 years ago
General
Following in the footsteps of
snackish here:
1) Have you been to FurDU before?
Never, but for years I've been promising to meet some friends up that way so this year is the year! It may also be a one-off, as I can't afford this kind of travel adventure very often.
2) How long will you be on the Gold Coast?
Just gonna be there for the con.
3) Where are you travelling from?
Sydney!
4) How are you getting there?
Flying foxaroo via the Flying Kangaroo (That's Qantas for those of you not familiar with their slogan).
5) Are you staying at the con hotel?
I'm staying at the con hotel. Want to be able to change in and out of my fursuit easily and not have to worry about leaving items unattended in the headless room.
6) Who are you rooming with?
One of my friends from up north.
7) Who will you be hanging around with?
Primarily there to see
wererstritchy and
redtailfox both of whom I've been wanting to meet for at least half a decade.
8) What are your major plans for the con?
I'm trying not to make plans but to just enjoy the time there with other furries. My job is a killer, so believe it or not being with furries is what's "normal" for me. About the only achievement I'm aiming for is to have photographs taken of myself alongside
redtailfox - Two foxaroos, that would be amazing beyond imagination!
9) Anything you really want to happen during the con?
I want everyone there to have a safe and enjoyable experience and for there to be no incidents, physical, legal, PR, or anything. Hope everyone abides by the well-being of everyone else, and that no anti-furs intrude where they're not wanted.
10) Anything you really want to avoid during the con?
Just hot weather - this foxaroo has very warm blood, and that's one of the reasons I wouldn't ordinarly travel up north.
11) Are you fursuiting/costuming?
Taking my partial fursuit of Michael Sauerpüss, my foxaroo (https://www.furaffinity.net/view/13207922/). Damn I need a better fursuit though, but Sebastian Sauerpüss (https://www.furaffinity.net/view/15923791/) is going to be horrendously expensive if I ever decide to go ahead with having a fursuit of him made up.
12) Are you an artist or dealer?
Neither. I'm a writer and photographer. I do however want to learn to draw, but I have minimal spare time for practicing.
13) Are you doing anything outside of the con?
Going to church on the morning of my day of worship, so you wont see me on the con site during that time. Hey, I normally go to Fox Valley church - that's gotta be the coolest name ever for the church of a furry christian.
14) How can I find you?
If I'm not in fursuit then look for an overdressed, overly formal greymuzzle. Hopefully that will help me to stand out from all the young furries.
15) Do you like hugs?
From fursuiters, YES! From humans, depends how much I trust them.
16) Can I have a drink with you?
At a table, sure!
17) Can I grab dinner with you?
Not sure.
18) Can I photograph you?
In fursuit, most certainly. Out of fursuit, why would anyone want to? :-P
19) Can I tag along with your group?
I'm not really expecting to be in a group, but I guess it might be possible. Emphasis on the "might."
20) Anyone you wish was coming, but isn't?
Uncle Kage and Jenner, since the loss of my job meant missing the past two Confurgences (Australia's main convention).
21) Got a Convention Badge for the event?
One made for me by
snackish and the one I've applied for via the FurDu website.

Oh hey I used to live right next to Fox Valley when I was a kid. I always loved the name x3
And I miss having you at the art jams, though it's been a long while since we've actually held one.
