I'll be there again this year, as norm.

We've got a rather large crew coming spread across three rooms. Bringing a friend from Tulsa who will have his first convention - he's excited and full of anticipatory preparation. (The only part I had to convince him of was to take his fursuit! He wondered if he'd go at all in it or just hit panels. I said: "Take it, trust me. You'll regret it if you don't.")

For years I have been a fan of a specific culture of costuming, if one that borders on the fetlife area but isn't always. After seeing two or three in past years I'm anxious to finally be able to go out and do it myself. I'm keeping the reveal as con-only, but just watch the nightlife...

It'll be a menagerie, but Zig Zag, Tiffany Munk, Minerva, and (to be revealed) are the traveling suits this year.

Probably another year where I pick up something at the art auction, so I'm hoping for something nice to see out there.

I'll be on twitter at atsukikodama1 now, and looking forward to how the theme plays out. I'm already guessing that the board game room will be packed almost all the time.
