ConnectiCon 2014 Experiences
Posted 11 years agoConnectiCon 2014 Experiences
So I had to say, I was a little disappointed this year with ConnectiCon and found myself enjoying the previous two years much more than this year’s convention. However, a lot of this had to do with the rotten luck I had the week leading up to CTcon.
So, some of you may have known, but I had commissioned a fullsuit to be completed in time for ConnectiCon. Needless to say, after 7 months and barely a head completed, it was obvious that I wasn’t going to get my new fullsuit to sport for CTcon as intended. So I was hoping my plan B suit would come through and again as fate had made it, this suit also never came through. So I ended up pulling Glant out of retirement for this particular convention even though I had zero intentions on using him until he was fully repaired.
Something some of you guys may have also known, my car has been having issues as of lately to point where I was going to use a rental for the convention instead. The day of the convention I go to pick up the rental, had the guy from enterprise pick me up and everything, only to find that my credit card had been declined because it was locked for some odd reason. I dropped the guy a 20 and had him drive me back and I decided to take my chances with my car. So I managed to snag everyone I needed to pick up because thankfully my car decided to be nice and actually start, until I got passed the Waterbury exit in the middle of rush hour and my engine decided to cut out in the middle of the highway. I had to manage to get my car to the shoulder without power steering, which I did even though it was difficult. Thankfully the car started right back up and we were on our way again.
My engine decided to cut out again, but this time it wasn’t until we actually made it to t a parking spot. We all decided to leave it as it was and try and tackle it again later. Well, later came and the engine still wouldn’t turn over at all. I literally sat there for 20 minutes turning the key on and off with no luck. I decided to pop the hood and fiddle around with the relays for the starter, that’s when I noticed this very tiny fuse was popped out, surely enough as soon as I popped it in, the car started and has been working since.
So we made our way to the hotel to check in and go off and maybe get some food. We get to the hotel to check in and it turns out that the credit card I used to book the room was the same card that got declined at the car rental place because it was locked out. Obviously that card was still locked and I wasn’t able to pay for the room that way. So I ended up paying $350 in cash, fortunately everyone else had their share of the money or I would have been more broke.
So that’s basically it for the bad stuff, it was literally all done on Friday and that for me was the worst day of the convention. I hardly suited and honestly didn’t even feel like being at the con to begin with at that point. Now for the good stuff from the con. :3
Some of the highlights of the con for me was making some new friends who literally stuck with me through the entire con and I really hope to see them again. Those amazing fries from the convention café, totally the best $3.00 I ever spent. Myself , Drake, and Fumu all getting interviewed for some TV show called Con-Men, which I really look forward to the video at some point. The rave was okay, but the outside party was A LOT better. The fireworks were pretty hysterical with commentary brought to you by Ludo. Getting lost in Hartford looking for Friendly’s was a adventure, on the topic of food. That you know, 5-star restaurant that Fumu brought everyone to last year was actually pretty amazing and totally would go there again. I think the absolute best thing though was our hotel. With the amazing shower, the free pool, and a amazing bar with probably one of the best bartenders I dealt with. Their food isn’t half bad either, I would totally go there again next year. Really, what started off as a terrible weekend, it all smoothed out towards the end and I have bigger and better plans for next year.

Retiring Glant
Posted 11 years agoIt's hard to say for how long, but I will be retiring Glant temporarily until I get him repaired. I might consider converting him into a fullsuit, but I want to see how my other character's fullsuit works out before making a official decision. If you know someone who would wanna work on repairing or adding parts to his current suit, please let me know. Listed below are things that I feel need to be replaced or redone so that he's fully up-to-date.
-Heads. They are all fine, but IF I were to get ANOTHER Glant head, I REALLY want his ears to be longer so that it resembles more of a bat. Getting tired of being called a wolf. Hah.
-Hands, I actually recently got them replaced and they are currently in for repairs and claw replacements free of charge.
-Tail, Other than my current tail being matted to hell due to lack of brushing, This current one needs to be fitted with the little wings that Glant actually has on his tail and it really needs to be airbrushed again. I might just get a whole new tail made, but I haven't officially decided.
-Wings, I absolutely love my wings, but certain areas are beginning to tear and need to be resown. This isn't a serious thing, but I have had a few people say I should probably consider replacing them.
-Feet, they are the absolute worst of the bunch. The claws are chipped and the toes are starting to come off. This is probably number one on my replacement list and I REALLY want them to digigrade, so I might end up going with a One-Half suit to make this happen if it's at the right price.
I will probably still sport Glant at conventions, since he isn't in a REAL bad state, but don't expect him out at meets or anything like that very often.

ConnectiCon 2013! Stuffs that happened!
Posted 12 years agoHey guys! As a lot of you may or may not know is that I recently went to ConnectiCon 2013!~ This is my third con ever and my first time attending THIS con for all three days.
I just wanna bring up some of my highlights of the convention and share with you my awesome moments with my amazing room mates.
Let's just start off with Friday night when we got to the con. I can't say that I felt the same excitement that I had when I first went to my first con back in 2012, which also happened to be CTCon, but I was still eager to get going and do things. So we started off by heading off to the con to fetch our badges and meet up with our room mates before checking in at the hotel. So we check in at the hotel and are waiting for
bellapomfloof646 with literally nothing to do other than inspect the hotel room. So I made a few vine videos showing the flaws of our hotel room, with the TV and light not working, some strange goo on the tv, to holes on the covers of the bed and red stuff on the flooring. MY favorite bit while waiting for Miss. Ponfloof was when
Ludovicus went under the covers and started screaming, "I'M NOT A FUCKING MATTRESS!" That was pretty hilarious.
So she finally shows up and we all went on our way to the con. I sported my derpy fursuit and wore a HORRIBLY made "Free hugs <3 =3" sign in hopes to get A LOT of hugs in this monstrosity of a suit. To a shock, I did get quite a few hugs. I expected to be shot and put out of my misery. Sadly, this will be the last time that suit is worn due to the fact it got more damaged during this con. We wandered around a lot to get a feel out for the con, I switched out of my durr suit and put on my professionally made rat suit just in time to be thrown out of the game room cause it was closed. Just gonna say, some staff were a little rude this year when trying to get their point across.
So after losing people and regaining people, WE ALL get back to the hotel to have a wonderful time. We all decided we were hungry and attempted to order pizza from every place saying they were open till 3 AM, but no one would pick up. So, Fumu BattleSTARGALACTICAship cracked out some pretty strong alcohol that was really good, but me not really in the mood getting drunk, I kinda just paced my first cup. At this point, everyone decided that someone should drive and get pizza. So, myself, Ludo, and
Darkwolf611 headed off to get pizza while everyone else stayed behind and drank more.
So in our adventure of getting pizza, we noticed a Taco Bell/Pizza Hut drive thru and we decided to ditch our plan for pizza for Taco Bell instead. As we pull up, the two ONLY employees I believe are outside potentially smoking a joint together. Ignoring this, we decide to press on and continue to order our food. While ordering the food, the guy taking our order is MUMBLING so much and informing us that half the stuff we are ordering doesn't exist or they do not have the stuff to make it. So we end up getting alternatives to whatever people ordered and we ended up dropping roughly $47.00 on Taco bell (totally had nothing to do with
drakeblacktail being drunk as shit and ordering 12 tacos). We end up back at the hotel with all the food and realized we got some extra stuff that we didn't order and didn't get charged for, which was pretty rad in my book. Then Drake unleashed his inner drunk by just being fucking hysterical that night by talking about how tacos have feelings and eating bananas for some odd reason. (Did I also forget to mention that Ludo turned Drake into a hamsteak?)
So day two rolls around and nothing on exciting really happened on my part, everyone kept splitting up and I kept getting very and angry over this. I ended up seeing Doug Walker from a distance, but was way to shy to even bother talk to him, I heard rumors that Brent Black was making public appearances here and there was well. So I ended up at the ConnectiCon furry parade, sitting inside a rather stuffy room with 100+ furs while in suit. It really wasn't that fun, but
TaruCat certainly found a way to entertain us all with her antics on eating bagels without egg and cheese on it. Another awkward moment during this was being put on the spot to talk about the CTfur's when I couldn't collect my thoughts quick enough for answering any questions, all well. I kinda don't remember doing much more after the parade, I think i wandered around and posed for pictures and got flustered and annoyed that I couldn't find anyone, so I went to the cafe and sat at a table and sent out a final tweet before my phone finally died saying, "Don't know where everyone is. At cafe sitting at table by gamers den. Phone officially dead now. #whereiseveryone" surely enough, after that tweet I ended up bumping into EVERYONE.
So as we all finally gathered, we were faced with the decision of WHAT should we eat for dinner again as we obtained a new roomie who I briefly met. Again, we decided to get pizza and again, surely enough the place wouldn't pick up the phone. So we all headed back to the hotel and decided that a few of us would go together, for what reason...I don't know, but we had a fleet of people to obtain a pizza to consume. The place we went to ended up being closed for the night (of course our luck) With a even better stroke of luck, there was another pizza place across the street and it was called, "Sgt. Pepper's" So we ordered about $55-60 worth of pizza and shit. The best part was when the homeless guy came in trying to trade clothes for pizza and was pan handling people for money IN the pizza place. So we got our pizza and headed back to the hotel and we all jammed out to "Don't Wanna Miss A Thing - Aerosmith" and "Safety Dance by Men Without Hats" but not before seeing the COOLEST motorcycles with LED lights all over them.
Day three, well this was probably the most of the three days that I had. Ludo and myself suited up and met up with the others in suit and walked around the con posing for people literally everywhere. The best part of that was when we managed to pretty much entertain an entire cafe area and apparently make the best OTP cosplays at the con with out little routine we did. I'll admit, that was a lot of fun entertaining in front of everyone and I totally hammed it up, let's be real. Then things kinda went meh and everyone split up again to do last minute things before leaving the con. I strolled my way back to my car to put back my rat suit Ludo was borrowing and came back to not being able to find anyone again, so I literally stood in the main lobby and just posed for people until I saw someone I knew. I was brought over to a group of little kids and interacted with them really well, the mother got a kick out of it as
Sarawrcat, Anthony, and myself all just chilled with the kids. I had a small issue with one of them took my glasses off my face and started bending them and I kinda said, "Oh shit, give me those" in front of him. #spoops and then he tried telling his mom I said the "S" word. I apologized to her and everything was cool, I felt so bad for letting that slip out haha. So skipping forward some, I ended up finding everyone again and sneaking away to walk Sarah to her family and also say goodbye to
clone63355 who had tagged along with us the entire con and helped made things fun. On my way back, being sidetracked with people who wanted pictures and again was brought into a routine again where I was just screaming and entertaining people who decided to film me. It was so much fun getting people to laugh, I feel like it's what I live for sometimes. It would have been better if my Co-Star Ludo was there to help out.
So the con had ended and none of us knew what to do, I came up with the idea of heading to the movie theaters and we all ended up watching Despicable Me 2 together, we all got a kick out of it and myself enjoyed it for the second time seeing it just as much as I saw it the first time. I thought it made a nice ending to a wonderful con experience with everyone. MY ABSOLUTE favorite part of this entire adventure was when we all finally settled down for the night while Drake, Ludo, and myself were up until 7:30 AM just talking about EVERYTHING and I felt it just made us that much closer with each other, especially when we talked about what annoys each other. Probably one the best conversations I had, the best was when I decided I was too hungry to do anything else and snagged A LOT of stuff from the free breakfast from the hotel and brought back to share with everyone. Of course, I rolled over and passed out for a couple hours before packing up and leaving.
We all said our goodbyes and went our ways and I have to say, these were the greatest roomies I ever had. We had our laughs and cries. Well....more like crying while laughing (*cough*anthony*cough*) I left parts out like Burger King being a cluster fuck and me giving a homeless guy a dollar then he asked for more from me changing his reasoning for needing money. There were a few people who really annoyed the fuck out of me during this con as well, just gonna say this. You need to grow the fuck up and get the fuck over it, if you don't know how I am by now, then why bother talking to me?
Anyway! That's it! I had tons of fun! Hope to do it again with the same people next year!

Posted 12 years agoSome personal thoughts and announcements.
Posted 12 years agoI just want to type out a small thing in regards of issues at this last meet we just had. If you wish not to read them, skip to the small area that says ANNOUNCEMENTS for up coming events that I will be hosting along side with other furs.
So, I just want to start off saying that this was probably one of the largest meets I've attended since I started going in March 2012, it was kind of refreshing seeing some new faces even though I spent 85% of the meet in my car avoiding people. I was suppose to make a speech along with some announcements with a couple other furs at this meet, but due to some drama the arisen...None of this happened, so the purpose of this journal is to inform you of what I was going to say at the meet and as well as clear up some rumors that were going around at the meet.
I suppose I will start with the speech bit. I was suppose to be talking about the effects the media has on the fandom and how it personally hurt me in certain ways, even though the news report was successful. As I was going to say in my speech, I don't do anything I do for fame and I honestly never originally wanted to be interviewed, I was trying to get by to talk to someone and kinda over hear what kind of questions they were asking for the interview. However, they kinda spotted me and asked me if I wanted to be interviewed and the rest if history from there. It felt good to be part of something good and was incredibly proud of how the report came out and was shocked to find some much of me in the report, especially since they really didn't record a lot of me to begin with. I mention the fame thing as a joke and only as a joke, I'm aware the joke has run it's course and that it why I kind of stopped mentioning it for awhile or only say it amongst close friends now. I suppose I should apologize to those who are I guess offended by this or annoyed? If it starts to bother you, don't be afraid to approach me and talk to me privately about it, I really don't bite.
That was the rough jist of what I had to say I guess, I'm kind of typing this all upset and not sure if everything worded out properly. So, let's hop onto the rumors that have been spreading around me during this last meet. I suppose a handful of you people saw a young girl holding my hand at the meet, I am going to say this once and I am not going to bring it up ever again. If you still choose to hold this against me, then by all means ignore and remove me. She was playing the role as my handler since she was the one who constructed the head I was wearing at the time and me not being able to see without my glasses, she took my hand to guide me to group of people safely through the parking-lot. If you label this as a form of pedophilia, then you REALLY need to get your priorities straight. The biggest slap in the face was that the individual who was concerned about it felt the need to indirectly publicly post it on his own facebook group that I'm a part of and also his personal facebook and then proceed to the host of the meet and say and I quote, "You need to do something about this..." While it is good to, "If you see something, say something to the host..." There are different ways in handling the situation rather than publicly posting it on facebook and then informing the host. This is not only an insult, it's down right disrespectful and in a way an invasion of privacy for you do not know what is even going on. It's really common sense, think before you post something or tell someone something because you really know how to tarnish someones image and ruin a meet for them. IF the speech were to happen and I wasn't calmed down by several furs, this very might have been my last furmeet at the Town Line Diner and fortunately, I have supportive friends and helped me get through this and I appreciate it.
If you want the short version of what is typed above, here it is. There was a rumor going around, don't believe it because somebody is stupid pretty much...
-ANNOUNCEMENTS-
So, Vain and I were planning a meet near the Danbury area if anyone is interested. We planning on meeting at the Denny's in Danbury which is kind of on the boarder of Bethel. We plan to potentially see a movie immediately following it at the Loew's Theater (assuming that's the one we are going to since that's the only big theater I know of in Danbury). I believe we selected the date of Saturday, May 25th, but keep in mind that this date may or may not change. Look for an official post on the CTFur's facebook page.
And there are also a couple more meets in the process of being planned, but dates and times are yet to be determined. keep an eye out for these posts as well. Thanks for reading!
So, I just want to start off saying that this was probably one of the largest meets I've attended since I started going in March 2012, it was kind of refreshing seeing some new faces even though I spent 85% of the meet in my car avoiding people. I was suppose to make a speech along with some announcements with a couple other furs at this meet, but due to some drama the arisen...None of this happened, so the purpose of this journal is to inform you of what I was going to say at the meet and as well as clear up some rumors that were going around at the meet.

Glant's History In The Fur Fandom.
Posted 12 years agoMy history in the fur fandom.
Where do I honestly say I begin… Well, I can safely say that I joined the furry community in 2004-2005 if you really want to be technical.
How did I get in? Well. When I first found the site deviantart, I didn’t even know what a furry was, but I did learn about the art of role playing and
using a great imagination. I made many friends and even pursued in arts & crafts. Some people who I fondly remember were people who I use to RP with on a daily basis.
In a way, these people built the pathway for me to discovering what exactly a furry was.
I eventually developed my first main character, who went by the name of “Draco d. Dragonkeeper”. Such an original name, I know. He was a human who was able to transform into
a dragon. Sadly, I have no pictures of his dragon form, but plenty of his human. (Which will be linked at the end of this) With this in mind, I started writing some stories
about Draco and his adventures, some of them were based upon actual RP events I had when I was younger. I soon eventually learned what a furry was and kinda felt like it was a calling
for me or something. That’s when I decided to scrap Draco and come up with a new character. This one went by the name of “Khahak Blackmoon”He was similar to Draco, but a fuzzy dragon who was able to transform into human and a wolf. I also ended up creating a bunch of spinoff characters and family for him to use in RPS.
He became a main character for me and I constantly drew him and used him in Rps.
I mean, what can I really say? I started dating this one girl at one point and our Rps became addicting and I thoroughly enjoyed the adventures to the point where I started writing again.
Sadly, those came to a stop once we split apart and I went MIA from the fur community for awhile. While I was away, I started developing a new character, the
one everyone seems to know and love these days. HOWEVER, his design was completely different. He started a dragon and I felt like they were over done, so i settled as a kirin for awhile.
I guess at some point I decided that the kirin wasn’t meant for me and I came up with the current “Glant Sputino”
Now-a-days I no longer RP with anyone and Glant currently has no background stories. I can only describe his personality to be my darker side to me, but yet…
at the same time…me. He is more sinister than I am and usually won’t take no for an answer. He will keep trying to get what he wants or will eventually
completely shut you out from his life. I noticed in some of the Rps I did use him in, he comes off as sort of a player, but deep down he just longs for someone
he can call his own. Glant’s personality is not only my darker side in my opinion, but also a escape of emotions I don’t usually let
show to other people. It really honestly depends on who I RP with and what exact mood I am. He could do things that I could never do in person… Enough rambling onabout Glant though…
With my growing interest in the fandom and growing support from friends I have gained over the years. I stumbled upon some fursuit videos online and decided
that they were really neat and seized the opportunity to get a suit while it presented the chance. I personally don’t regret it and absolutely love my suit(s)
and sometimes feel as though it let’s me escape my own flaws. HOWEVER, at the same time…it sort of grows old and most of the time you will see me with the head off or flipped up.
With what fun I do have, the first time someone asked to pose in a picture with me felt magical and it made me feel like I meant something. Like I belonged to something great.
Since receiving my first suit, I really wanted a place that I could sport it and show it everyone and with this, one of my ex’s actually found a furmeet that
I still to this day, attend monthly. My first meet experience was really awkward considering I didn’t know anyone and I kinda showed up late. Once I arrived with suit in hand and
tossed the idea around if I should go in with the suit or not, I eventually decided that I should. Sadly, once I entered…most the people had left and went outside to hang out.
Fortunately a fellow fur finally had decided to introduce themselves to me and kinda warmed me up talking with others within’ the group and I ended up having a wonderful time
at my first meet. I didn’t really start solidating friends until the second meet when I met some of the people who I talk to on a daily basis now and I couldn’t be more happy
to have such wonderful friends who I would consider family. As this past year went by of me attending the meets, I made friends and lost friends and I like to think earned
a slight reputation in the fandom ever since I did that silly little news interview with Fox 61. How do I honestly feel about the meets as a whole depends on hoe exactly the
meets really go. In the time I started going compared to now, there was and has been a drastic change with how the group of people act. I think this mainly has to do with the
growing number of people now attending the meets and I do think it can be controlled if handled properly. None-the-less, I do have a great time with each meet I go to and couldn’t
be more happy than hanging out with people who share a common interest, even if it means I have to drive around 2 hours to and from said place.
Attending some meets eventually made me interested in attending some conventions that were close to my area. I couldn’t be more excited to be part of something big as my first con
ever was actually ConnectiCon 2012. I thought it would be best if I took it easy and only go for one day. As a first con (even though it wasn’t all furry) I had a great time
and really enjoyed myself, even though I spent a lot of time wandering around meeting people. I sadly didn’t bother with panels much because I wanted to get a feel out for how
a con actually functions. This immediately sparked interest in me wanting to attend an all furry convention, which led me to attending Fur Fright 2012. I won’t lie, Fur Fright wasn’t
as great as I expected it to be, considering everything that happened during it. In a way though, I felt as though it made things more entertaining this way. Despite my issues with certain things,
I do plan on going again for 2013 and don’t plan on making a mid-con escape back to New York for a Halloween party, especially when I learned I missed so many cool things at the con.
So, I suppose this summarizes my history in the fandom and I’m sure I left A LOT of stuff out. So if you want to ask me questions about anything, feel free! I was going to so some special thank yous,
but I honestly don’t wanna sit here trying to think of everyone’s names and I really don’t want to offend anyone. I am however going to contradict what I just said and give out FOUR special thanks out
to some people who I no longer speak to on a daily basis, for they helped me form who I am today in the fandom.
For starts, I want to thank Misora & Shadow. These two first introduced me to the fandom and basically helped create the steeping stones for me to make my own fursona and try out RPing.
I also want to thank Olive, one of my ex mates who I regret splitting from at one point. She really helped soildate the foundation of RPing with someone for me and it was really sad to watch out adventure come to a crashing halt.
I also want to thank my other ex, Lindsay (Evanye) who introduced me to the CT Furs local furmeets, without her… I wouldn’t have met such wonderful people.
You know what….I might as well keep going with the thanking.
I want to thank Faye, she helped bring my current fursona to life by making him into a partial fursuit.
I want to thank Ludo, Bob, Lucas, ans basically all the people who i talk to on a daily basis in the fandom (doing this cause I’m lazy at listing everyone). Without you guys, I’d lose interest in the fandom and would just leave.
I suppose I should also thank my family and friends who aren’t part of the fandom. I never openly told anyone I was a furry or about the fandom. I kinda let them figure it all out for themselves and when they approached me asking about it,
I truthfully answered them and they supported me. (Even though some of my friends hate furries, they still respect and support me.)
There are probably more people missing, but I’m lazy…so I’m sorry if I missed you and you got offended.
THE END.

YCH Pose (NSFW)
Posted 12 years agoYeah, I'm working with
sythrawolf with a YCH Pose and yes, it's naughty. Snow needs some money for meds and I was all like, "Hey! Use my character n shit and I'll pay for half the commission." So, if you ever wanted a dirty picture with Glant, here is your chance I suppose. o;/ (I don't normally do stuff like this, awkwardness level is reaching it's peak level. xD)

Things You Want To Tell Me.
Posted 13 years agoSo, I was bored and thinking on ways I make myself a better person for this year. I ended up deciding on this journal to see what people both like and hate in me. So, here it goes. I want everyone who wishes to post one thing they like and one thing they dislike about me. With the information you give me, I will focus on the bad to make myself better and the good, finding ways to improve upon them.
TMI Tuesday? What the fuck is this?
Posted 13 years agoNah, in all seriousness. I know exactly what it is and I guess everyone and their mother seems to do one. Might as well, "YOLO" and make one myself. ASK AWAY!
Some personal thoughts....And final thoughts.
Posted 13 years agoOkay, this is going to be my very last post about this topic and then I'm just gonna drop it like it's a bag of hot potatoes.
Last night in my personal opinion was just a bunch of bullshit. It shouldn't have ever happened and should never happen again.
Another thing I want to bring up is. I was not forcing anyone to do anything at all and if that's what was said. You need to get your facts straight. All I did was project my opinion and wanted to discuss it privately before having it brought out in the open. Sorry that my opinion seemed "forced" but I was talking to some admins over it. If you're gonna hate me over, then so be it. I don't need you to approve of me to make a opinion in general.
With all of this being said, I personally feel that I have upset some people and frankly do not want to deal withe awkwardness or the drama that comes with it. I think it would be of mine and certain other individuals best interests that I take maybe a small break from the next few meets until things cool down and this drama storm is done and over with.
It's things like the night before that make me feel that it's not even worth even coming out to CT anymore to some of these meets. Cause something at some point is gonna go wrong with someone and then it just ruins the night for the rest of us. Then you're gonna have someone judging and hating someone over something stupid and blah blah blah. It's like High School all over again and frankly, I don't want to have to deal with this.
Listed below were the suggestions I wanted to bring up tot he admins, if they were even considered or not is beyond me, but here is the list.
-Maybe adding some sort of authority figure to the meets. (More than we currently have)
-Attempt to maybe split up the meet to two times a month in hopes of lowering the amount of people who attend.
In a nut shell, that's all I suggested other than recommend some people as the authority figures. If that is so bad, then I guess I'm a horrible person and am not allowed to project my own opinion. Also I'm going to clarify, I wasn't attempting to become and admin of any sort at all. All I said is that if they couldn't decide on the amount of people and exactly who they want. They could use me, even though I even said that I don't think anyone would listen to me anyway.
I'm sure I'm going to get a shit ton of comments saying that I did some shit wrong and I should have just but out and blah blah blah... You're entitled to your own opinion, sorry we don't agree.
Anyway.... Touching back up to my jumping conversation... I guess all I'm trying to say is maybe a possible good bye from me for now.

DON'T POST IN THIS, BUT READ
Posted 13 years agoTHIS IS POSTED FOR FACEBOOK, RESPOND TO THE CTFURS MESSAGE!
So, I was talking with Kristeva Daniel Revey-Atkins today on Facebook while I was at work. Jokingly coming up with ideas for how I can make Glanty Clause seem evil for the next meet. When suddenly, I sparked an idea that we both though would be fun to do. I thought of having a real story behind, "How Glant Stole Christmas" and pretty much have everyone help write the story on here.
So for the next month, for those who want to take part of this. We will be writing, toegether, "How Glant Stole Christmas." The final edited version will be read out loud during the January furmeet. So, below will be things I need and rules. Please keep them in mind when adding you own part to the story.
Things I need ad rules.
I need two additional editors for when I start putting the entire story together.
I need illustrators, I would prefer the art to be digital and fully colored, but black and white line art works as well.
When adding your own part of the story, please use proper spelling and punctuation to the best of your ability, it will make editing much easier in the future.
It goes without saying that this story should be kept PG-13 and leaning more towards child friendly.
The roll of Glant and the dog is already taken. Glant is obviously gonna be me and the dog is gonna be Sarah Mancini and her fursona. Any additional characters will be first come, first serve. This story doesn't exactly have to follow the same basis as the Grinch story, but the moral should be the same.
Once the story is completed, along with different art from different artists. It will be most likely posted on the CTFur's FA page and my personal FA page. Everyone who takes part will receive credit where it is due. The cover art will be the picture down below, made by Sarah Mancini.
If the book becomes any good, it maybe posted on some website where we can collect donations for local charities or toys for tots.
So without further ado, who wants to kick us off? Sorry for the long message, but I just want to make things clear. If you have any questions, PM me.

FurFright, FireFright, HurriCon 2012 Wrap Up. I was on TV!
Posted 13 years agoSo, since I now finally have power and internet and am finally home, lemme type this up as I await some suspected trick or treaters.
If you wanna skip my journal, go to the bottom and watch me in the news at least. The stream takes a little bit to load up, be patient. Thanks. :3
So, Day #1 at FurFright...
Not gonna lie, I didn't get much sleep the night before and was pretty exhausted before I even started leaving for FurFright. Once I was finally on my way, I decided to pick up Mister Clancy from his house after already running roughly a half hour to forty-five minutes behind schedule. I call him from outside his house and there was no answer, so I left a voice message. Waited 5-10 minutes before finally going to the door, knocking on it and ringing the door bell. I sat outside for another 10-15 minutes before he comes to the door. He over slept, so I was pretty upset that now we were both behind. So maybe 20-30 minutes after he answered the door, we were finally on the road.
Apparently I had to go get Mister Clancy's boyfriend, so we drove there and waited like 30-45 minutes for him to get there and then wasted 20-30 minutes only to find out he wasn't going to come with us. Now, at this point I am pissed off, but wasn't showing it.
I managed to finally get to
Ludovicus's house and probably sat there for 20 minutes before he arrived. It was pretty entertaining to see him walk down the street and was all like, "Sup guys?" I loved how he was ALREADY PACKED AND READY TO GO, unlike some other people mentioned above. Ludo, was rather entertaining during the car ride, laying down some tracks for us as he mixed his own dubstep on his laptop.
Soon we found ourselves at
mitskuni's house and we were pretty hyped and ready to go. I was shocked we were able to fit so much shit in the trunk along with my fursuit. I thought for sure someone was gonna have to hold a bag or something. It was now a real party, driving with everyone in the car.
We finally made it FurFright by 3:00 - 3:30 PM. It was a rather uneventful day as far as I saw. Everyone broke off and went their own things, while I kinda wandered around and explored. I sat down a few times to take a break, seeming to not find anything to do. I met some real cool people I met online and I met some new people. Whored out the creator of my suit and other generic shit.
Eventually we all settled into our hotels and had a little fun until the next morning, where we regretted not getting enough sleep.
Day #2, FireFright/FireCon 2012,
We awoke around 10:00 - 10:30 AM after not falling asleep until like 5-6 AM. This is probably one of the more entertaining days in my opinion, mainly for several reasons. We had A LOT more people, specially in suit. I wanted to get pictures with so many people, but was either busy following friends or busy being lazy. I met up with
LodiDah and her friend to get ready for the fursuit parade.
Once the fursuit parade finally began to start, it was incredibly hot and tiring as we stood around, waiting to exit the ball room.
JD_Puppy trying to guide everyone was pretty entertaining. Another small highlight was when someone stood on stage and pointed out
zenfur and made fun of him and his cat from the furry interview.
We finally made it outside, at this point I was dying of heat and was pretty sure I was about to collapse do to a heatstroke or something. I was hoping they'd just hurry up and take the picture, but of course, they needed to take multiple shots. From the lack of sleep and being sick, I didn't wanna stay much longer.
From here, I finally found my way back inside, where I was greeted by a friendly stranger at the bar who offered to buy me a drink and food. I took up the offer and plopped myself down to eat. Once I was finished, I hung out for a bit, accidentally knocked a glass of water off the counter with my wings. Embarrassed, I walked off to find one of my friends.
With my friend Lucas with me, we made haste to New York for a Halloween Party I was suppose to be at. I hate to say it though, it was fun, but not that entertaining. There was a costume contest where I won "Most Creative Costume" cause I was wearing my fursuit. I got some free tee-shirt and 25 bucks cash.
We decided to head back to FurFright and returned around 1:30 AM. At this point, we broke off again and did our own thing. I sat around and did nothing until some issues came up that needed to be resolved. After leaving the con to do said issues. Me and a group of people return, only to find out that the fire alarm had been pulled and everyone was moved outside. I was forced to park and leave my vehicle and stand with the other furries. I had no jacket or anything and it was freezing as fuck, on a side note....I also had to shit real bad.
After being forced to get out of my car, I found some friends and seeked them for warmth and comfort as we waited until roughly 5:00 to 5:30 AM when we were told we can finally leave. I was to tired to be pissed off at the situation, I went to my hotel and just passed out as soon as I got there. From then on, it was called FireFright or FireCon 2012 as a joke.
Day #3, HurriCon 2012,
Day three was very hectic. Especially with Hurricane Sandy approaching fast. This was also a lazy day for all of us as we all didn't arrive to the con until around 2PM. But everything was being packed up and put away already. With us noticing this, we hung out for a few hours until I brought Lucas home. I was originally going to head back to the hotel and hang out with Ludo until we slept, but we ended up heading back to the con.
Not gonna lie, heading back to the con was probably the best idea, cause the little dance thing at the end made it really fun. It was nice to end on a good note. Can't say much more happened other than the panicking about how people were gonna get home and shit.
We returned to our hotel and prepare for HurriCon 2012 as Sandy started rolling in.
Day #4, HurriCon 2012,
So we (me and Ludo) woke up with food being our number one priority. Ludo and I hit up the Cromwell Diner for a nice breakfast before I attempted to make my way back home to New York. We chit-chatted with some random furs who happen to be there as well as I set haste to bring Ludo home.
Getting Ludo home was a interesting task we I did manage to get lost a couple times cause my GPS was acting derpy and I wasn't paying much attention to it. We finally arrived to Ludo's town and he brought me to some cafe, where we sat in front of the TV and made fun of the hurricane and commercials. It was rather hilarious, at this point....the hurricane was finally whipping up.
This is when I decided it was time to finally leave, but I remembered that I promised
MuffinMistress I'd visit here before returning to New York. So, I drove roughly an hour through the hurricane on 84 which is suppose to be closed. Just to get to her and say bye before returning home myself. Her father said it was getting nasty and that he wasn't gonna let me leave the house until the next day.
So, I stayed up and hung out with Anny for most the night before finally hitting the hay around 5 AM.
Day #5, HurriCon 2012 After Party,
I woke up lazily around 12 PM to use the bathroom, I looked outside noticing that the storm had passed and we were only getting a few gusts of wind.
I hung out for a few hours before deciding it was time to leave, not before I took Anny out for some food with me and taking her to MIchael's for some posterboard for a college project.
It was really sad to drop her off and head back to New York, but eh...Whatever I guess.
The whole ride I was voxing all my friends, it made the long trip seem much shorter.
I return home to a cold house being ran by a generator for only the bottom floor. I was so exhausted, that I didn't care how cold my room was, I just slept.
Now about that part of me being in the news. I was interviewed by FoxCT and appeared on the news at 10:00 PM on Saturday. Zen and I were the talk of the con when random people came up and were like, "Your that guy from TV". A lot more also happened at the con, but I didn't wanna overrun you with EVERYTHING, but I covered the basics pretty much. Now, below is a livestream link to the news cast. Have fun!

Ludovicus's house and probably sat there for 20 minutes before he arrived. It was pretty entertaining to see him walk down the street and was all like, "Sup guys?" I loved how he was ALREADY PACKED AND READY TO GO, unlike some other people mentioned above. Ludo, was rather entertaining during the car ride, laying down some tracks for us as he mixed his own dubstep on his laptop.Soon we found ourselves at
mitskuni's house and we were pretty hyped and ready to go. I was shocked we were able to fit so much shit in the trunk along with my fursuit. I thought for sure someone was gonna have to hold a bag or something. It was now a real party, driving with everyone in the car.We finally made it FurFright by 3:00 - 3:30 PM. It was a rather uneventful day as far as I saw. Everyone broke off and went their own things, while I kinda wandered around and explored. I sat down a few times to take a break, seeming to not find anything to do. I met some real cool people I met online and I met some new people. Whored out the creator of my suit and other generic shit.
Eventually we all settled into our hotels and had a little fun until the next morning, where we regretted not getting enough sleep.
Day #2, FireFright/FireCon 2012,
We awoke around 10:00 - 10:30 AM after not falling asleep until like 5-6 AM. This is probably one of the more entertaining days in my opinion, mainly for several reasons. We had A LOT more people, specially in suit. I wanted to get pictures with so many people, but was either busy following friends or busy being lazy. I met up with
LodiDah and her friend to get ready for the fursuit parade. Once the fursuit parade finally began to start, it was incredibly hot and tiring as we stood around, waiting to exit the ball room.
JD_Puppy trying to guide everyone was pretty entertaining. Another small highlight was when someone stood on stage and pointed out
zenfur and made fun of him and his cat from the furry interview. We finally made it outside, at this point I was dying of heat and was pretty sure I was about to collapse do to a heatstroke or something. I was hoping they'd just hurry up and take the picture, but of course, they needed to take multiple shots. From the lack of sleep and being sick, I didn't wanna stay much longer.
From here, I finally found my way back inside, where I was greeted by a friendly stranger at the bar who offered to buy me a drink and food. I took up the offer and plopped myself down to eat. Once I was finished, I hung out for a bit, accidentally knocked a glass of water off the counter with my wings. Embarrassed, I walked off to find one of my friends.
With my friend Lucas with me, we made haste to New York for a Halloween Party I was suppose to be at. I hate to say it though, it was fun, but not that entertaining. There was a costume contest where I won "Most Creative Costume" cause I was wearing my fursuit. I got some free tee-shirt and 25 bucks cash.
We decided to head back to FurFright and returned around 1:30 AM. At this point, we broke off again and did our own thing. I sat around and did nothing until some issues came up that needed to be resolved. After leaving the con to do said issues. Me and a group of people return, only to find out that the fire alarm had been pulled and everyone was moved outside. I was forced to park and leave my vehicle and stand with the other furries. I had no jacket or anything and it was freezing as fuck, on a side note....I also had to shit real bad.
After being forced to get out of my car, I found some friends and seeked them for warmth and comfort as we waited until roughly 5:00 to 5:30 AM when we were told we can finally leave. I was to tired to be pissed off at the situation, I went to my hotel and just passed out as soon as I got there. From then on, it was called FireFright or FireCon 2012 as a joke.
Day #3, HurriCon 2012,
Day three was very hectic. Especially with Hurricane Sandy approaching fast. This was also a lazy day for all of us as we all didn't arrive to the con until around 2PM. But everything was being packed up and put away already. With us noticing this, we hung out for a few hours until I brought Lucas home. I was originally going to head back to the hotel and hang out with Ludo until we slept, but we ended up heading back to the con.
Not gonna lie, heading back to the con was probably the best idea, cause the little dance thing at the end made it really fun. It was nice to end on a good note. Can't say much more happened other than the panicking about how people were gonna get home and shit.
We returned to our hotel and prepare for HurriCon 2012 as Sandy started rolling in.
Day #4, HurriCon 2012,
So we (me and Ludo) woke up with food being our number one priority. Ludo and I hit up the Cromwell Diner for a nice breakfast before I attempted to make my way back home to New York. We chit-chatted with some random furs who happen to be there as well as I set haste to bring Ludo home.
Getting Ludo home was a interesting task we I did manage to get lost a couple times cause my GPS was acting derpy and I wasn't paying much attention to it. We finally arrived to Ludo's town and he brought me to some cafe, where we sat in front of the TV and made fun of the hurricane and commercials. It was rather hilarious, at this point....the hurricane was finally whipping up.
This is when I decided it was time to finally leave, but I remembered that I promised
MuffinMistress I'd visit here before returning to New York. So, I drove roughly an hour through the hurricane on 84 which is suppose to be closed. Just to get to her and say bye before returning home myself. Her father said it was getting nasty and that he wasn't gonna let me leave the house until the next day.So, I stayed up and hung out with Anny for most the night before finally hitting the hay around 5 AM.
Day #5, HurriCon 2012 After Party,
I woke up lazily around 12 PM to use the bathroom, I looked outside noticing that the storm had passed and we were only getting a few gusts of wind.
I hung out for a few hours before deciding it was time to leave, not before I took Anny out for some food with me and taking her to MIchael's for some posterboard for a college project.
It was really sad to drop her off and head back to New York, but eh...Whatever I guess.
The whole ride I was voxing all my friends, it made the long trip seem much shorter.
I return home to a cold house being ran by a generator for only the bottom floor. I was so exhausted, that I didn't care how cold my room was, I just slept.
Now about that part of me being in the news. I was interviewed by FoxCT and appeared on the news at 10:00 PM on Saturday. Zen and I were the talk of the con when random people came up and were like, "Your that guy from TV". A lot more also happened at the con, but I didn't wanna overrun you with EVERYTHING, but I covered the basics pretty much. Now, below is a livestream link to the news cast. Have fun!

Selling Shit. Need Money.
Posted 13 years agoLook at all the shit I'm selling, figure I'll leave this up for a week or until all items are sold. I already have an offer on the first desktop listed.
First one we have is a Dell XPS 600. Former top of the line gaming computer from 2007. Bought brand new but has seen better days. The front panel keeps falling off and the there is a small rust spot on the back of the computer where the fans are. (Photos Upon Request)
Here are the specs.
Processor: Intel® Pentium® D CPU 3.00GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 2GB
Hard Drive: 500GB
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX
Sound Card: SB X-Fi Audio [CCE0]
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate.
Computer will be fully wiped with all drivers and updates installed.
Price: Asking for $175.00, but willing to negotiate price.
The second computer is a custom built desktop that my friend built. Not gonna lie, the case for it is pretty shitty. I've seen better cases but the computer is able to handle Skyrim on low to medium settings without lagging. However this was before I upgraded the desktop to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit. After moving from Windows XP to 7, the computer seems to shut itself off when there are to many programs running at once. I haven't figured out the exact cause of this and I don't have the patience to deal with it. I have determined that the desktop MAY have a heating issue. I find this desktop to be perfect for those looking for parts or may know how to fix it. This desktop DOES NOT come with a wireless internet card. (I stole it and put it in my new desktop)
Processor: AMD Phenom 9550 Quad Core CPU 2.2 ghz
Memory: 2GB

Wacom Drawing Tablet, comes with pen, mouse, and art software. 12 by 12. Has been beat up over the years, but works perfectly fine. Asking $65.00

Posted 13 years agoListen, I don't know what the fuck your problem is. I've done absolutely NOTHING wrong and yet you accuse me for being an asshole for "LOLing" everytime you want to get serious with me. Seriously, grow the fuck up. I don't recall doing anything of the sort and by the way. If you thought you and I could ever be together, your sadly mistaken! Yiffing online is 100% different than having a established relationship with someone.
I'm sorry that you have no friends, it must suck living in a basement and never coming out for air ever. I'm normally a very nice guy, but totally just pressed the wrong buttons and pissed me off.
So do me a favor.... follow these steps below, especially considering you threatened my mate and me, you creepy ass stalker.
Step One: Get your fat ass from your computer chair.
Step Two: Walk outside.
Step Three: Stand in the middle of the road.
Step Four: And go fuck yourself as your being hit by a speeding vehicle.
Then I'm gonna personally go to your funeral, just to be the only person there and before they drop you in the hole. I'm gonna piss on your coffin. Might take a shit as well.
No wonder you left the fandom, your ignorant twat who doesn't listen. I try to help you, but you decide to be fucking scum instead. Good bye, good farewell...Good luck in life...
