Looking for a ride and room to share - Anthrocon
Posted 13 years agoSo, I know it's quite a ways away, but I have to start saving up money now if I'm going to be able to go to Anthrocon 2013.
A Little About Me ::
I'm a 22 year old, gender neutral, carbon based life form. I'm not really a party animal, but I don't care if other people are. I fursuit (I have a full and partial - will only be bringing the full with me) and I try to get along with everyone. I warn ahead of time that I am a fanatic dancer, so I wouldn't be coming back from the dances until late. There is one picky thing I have - due to job related things (aka a drug test once a month) I can not be around any sort of smoke beyond cigarettes. I don't care if you do it, I just can't be in the room with it. That's my one picky thing.
What I am Looking For ::
I'm looking for someone who is willing to put up with me and my stuff in a car to the convention. I'm willing to pay half of the gas for the way there and the way back. I am legal to drive, so I can also do half the driving. I just need to know an est. on gas, day leaving, day returning, ect. That way I can make sure to save enough and work out things with the room.
For the room, I don't care if I need to crash on the floor. As long as you don't mind a full suiter who tends to leave early and come home late. (Last year I was out by 10 and home by 2-3) Male or female room mates work great with me either way. Again, I just need to know worst case scenario prices, days staying, ect. If you are willing to give this weird thing a warm spot in your hotel room, please let me know.
I will also be posting this on the anthrocon website.

Weirdst Birthday Ever
Posted 13 years agoI was born on Christmas Eve 22 years ago.
I've had some really weird birthdays. Like being the DM for a Dungeons and Dragons game, getting my first legal shot, getting drunk and sending my players through some weird things. I've also had really bad. Today is kind of both.
I went into work yesterday at 5pm.and at Midnight the DJ announced that it was my birthday, (For those who don't know, I'm a stripper. Psh, I don't care if you know. I dont hide it) Next thing I know I am pulled onto the main stage by six of my fellow girls, thrown on the ground and had so many lady bits shoved in my face that I couldn't stop laughing, Great way to kick off being 22.
I left work at 1:30 am Christmas Eve. I had a plan with my friends to do this Comfort Dental thing. They were giving free dental work to the first 75 people at every building in the state. Had to be there before the doors opened at 7. Okay, cool. I have a few teeth that need to be pulled, and the money is almost nonexistant in my life to pay to get it done.
Pros: Free tooth pulling
Cons: On my fucking birthday. The day before Christmas. Waiting in line. In 24 degree weather. For three hours.
I hadn't gotten a chance to sleep at this point. I was too cold, cuddled up to two of my friends, to remember that A) I hate the dentist and B) OMG I'm about to feel pain for a few days. Oh, and look like a chipmunk for two days.
But as I kept telling myself, while people stared at my big horn sheep hat funny, you don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Pun intended.
Yeeah...until I got a needle shoved into my gums six times. Do you know how weird it is to have half of your face numb? I don't just mean my mouth and my jaw. My entire left side of my face. The left side of my lips, the left side of my nose, my left eyebrow....when I tried to smile, I looked like Igor from Frankenstien.
I was out of the chair around 10am, as were the rest of my friends. I can't eat anything, Can't smoke. Can't feel my nose. I had to suffer through the smell of McDonalds french fries on an empty, starving stripper stomach for a whole 30 minutes. OMG that fucking sucked. Next stop - get my pain meds. And hope I can feel my face soon enough that my stomach can stop raging world war 3 against my spine.
Now I am home, after driving through intense hole-in-my-face pain, wishing that I could smoke my nicotine. Oh well, too late for going back on my idea to get a tooth pulled on my birthday. I am now drugged up on pain meds to the point that I can no longer feel my face, my toes, and everything in between is in this warm and fuzzy place.
Weirdest. Birthday. Ever.
(And I bet that next year is going to be weirder)

If you are going to be there, hit me up! I'd love to get together with other dance furs.
For those who are not competing but know me - Come cheer me on! I'd love to see all of you there.
I should be getting my full suit by saturday *crosses fingers* thanks to -donthugcacti- being awesome people. If I do get Toxic in, I will be in the comp. If not, I'll cheer everyone on anyways.

Lions go ROAR and cowards LIE
Posted 13 years agoGaaah....This entire week - this entire month!- has me flicking my tail angrily. I've just wanted to snarl and curl up into my blankets and forget that the day is passing by. I find that everything has crumbled down into a mass effect of chaos, leaving me sitting there with a confused and pissed off look on my face.
What the freak happened to everything?!?
One minute everything was going fine, and then my den mates decided that "Oh no! We never said that!" Leaving a bunch of us confused and honestly, more than a little furious. I honestly don't want to cause drama, hence why I'm posting this here. It feels good to know that you have one site away from them because -le gasp- they aren't furries!
Anyways, away from that little snarltastic part.
So I had gotten a cat-fur brush to fix up some of the small mats in my tail, head, paws, ect. It worked wonders! So, as my friend pointed out to me, why not use them on my fur cuffs? To explain a little, I have this pair of large black fake fur handcuffs. I've had them for four years now. They are matted, clumped...quite flat...and they were just not happy. So, I decided to try the brush. It might work, might not.
As I'm brushing, I start thinking about everything going wrong. With my house, with myself. I've been losing myself, and I've had some issues finding me again. So as I'm brushing, I start to imagine all of the flaws on myself. I am those mats. I am clumped up, dirty, and just plain...gross....at least in my mind. The brush is working wonders on the fur (pulling some out, but that was to be expected) and I start to realize some things. Even if I'm that matted, I can take a fine toothed brush and work out the mats. If I take my time, I don't pull too much, but it takes a long time. if I do it quickly, it gets the big picture done. Then maybe I can go back over slowly and take my time to fluff the fur up just right. Just like my cuffs, I can slowly be unmatted, quickly unmatted, yet still be the same quirky Changeling that I am.
So here I am, brushing my cuffs and somehow relating it to brushing out the flaws of my own personality.
When they told me that grooming your suit was like grooming yourself, becoming more yourself, I didn't believe them. Now I do.
And it feels great.
