2016 BRING IT ON
10 years ago
General
So, the past few days I've been doing oodles of strategic life planning, and it looks like 2016 will be the most awesome year yet in my entire life on Earth to date. By a wide margin. And I've had quite a few of these years on this rock, believe me, I've been places, and they ain't nearly as super as this!
Let's break it down...
March: Vancoufur, meeting old friends again and marking my first full year of fursuiting! The past year has been just wonderful, I can't believe how much has happened since then. And I am so not missing out on the nerf war this time! But not stopping there, right after the closing ceremonies I'm taking wing all the way across the ocean to Australia for some amazing adventures with
furtitude <3 I just can't wait!
May: Quick little jaunt to Fur-eh, always fun times.
June: The best angel dragon in the world comes to visit! We'll totally have epic shenanigans and cavort around some breathtaking nature before rocking down to ANTHROCON! I'm totes getting supersponsor so we'll for sure have a room in the Westin for maximum fursuiting! Needless to say, super excited, my first time, I've no idea what's going to happen XD WHO ELSE IS GOING?
With such epic plans PCD might be force to be reckoned with for average existences, but it can just go take a hike, even in "mundane" work life I'm anticipating a summer full of new toys, productive milestones, random fursuit opportunities, and rambling around with friends and co-workers! As Calvin put it, the days are just PACKED!
September: Gonna build my mews, get me a falconry license and train a sparrowhawk! I'm going to be apokemon bird trainer!
I wanna be, the very best, like no one ever was ♫♪♬ To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause! I will travel across the land, searching far and wide... teachpokemon falconiformes to understand, the power that's inside!
December: Midwest Furfest! I've heard so many awesome things about this con and been wanting to make it my US convention port of call every year from 2016 on. It's just perfect because December is a quiet period for work for me and it's nice and cool for fursuiting, I don't know why I never thought to go to MFF sooner! Suffice to say I'm actually even MORE stoked about this than AC. But it's still a year out so I'm not going to get all excited about it yet XD but I might be able to rock a final version 2 of my suit there ;D
The best part: My budget might actually balance despite all that insanity! If I'm disciplined about it. But with all that stuff going on, to sustain my bills and save enough for buying an eyrie, I'm putting full-on moratorium on art spending, new craft ventures and impulse purchases until 2017. Well, mostly. I'll probably meet so many of my favorite artists at AC for the first time in person and be compelled to throw every last penny of "disposable income" I have left at them XD
Anyway, that's 2016 for me!
BRING IT ON!
