Congratz on California for the recent success towards civil rights.
At the same time youtube is going forward with a #ProudToLove campaign and my good friend  raspberryroo set up a lovely adorable video just for the cause.

She filmed and edited and a few of us helped act it out.

[im far too lazy to get their icons right now :P]

What if I did Sell MonsteRoo?

What if I could fix him up and restore his fur to the point that he'd be sell-able? Wouldn't be too difficult, just a week long project really.

Well if I put down terms upon his purchase that the owner agrees not to produce any video content involving the MonsteRoo suit.

Lets face the facts. I'm not taking him to Aus and I could really use the income. But I don't quite want the character to retire.
One day I would like to get a dance-able/movement capable suit thats more professional and doesn't cause me to overheat in 20 minutes.

So what do you think?
Do what I want, its my suit?

Or is the thought of someone else performing in MonsteRoo besides me too much to bear?

Only one bid so far. Nows your chance.

 dashel is putting his roo up for bid on furbuy!
If you're looking for a colorful suit consider purchasing this fella!
He's appeared along side MonsteRoo in several performances including the Furry Harlem Shake and the recent Lets have a Kiki video.

My boyfriend  dashel is visiting the states again and making a stop in New York City before giong down to Orlando. Was wondering if I knew anyone there who may be willing to provide a room [or couch] for a few nights if not all four. The Hotels are super expensive x.x

Okay so I saw this tumblr several months ago and I thought it was hilarious. I want to try this idea too.

I will livestream some art, but I need the help of you guys. Particularly those with knowledge of pokemon.

You see, I haven't played pokemon past the original 150... So theres so many I have no clue to what they look like.

This shall be a test my interpretation skills and your ability to describe the subject.

Hell throw me off by being vague and I'll take a shot of Rum and we'll all have a good laugh at what we make.

So come in while I doodle and chat and struggle to draw these Pokemans.

<3 I am so happy that I could be here in London for my birthday. The tiger says hes got stuff planned for me. Crazy, don't think I've ever had the pleasure of being escorted about for my birthday. ^^'

I hope 24 to be an amazing age for me. It is my lucky number.
24 hours to celebrate 24 years on the 24th of April.

o.o I should take 24 shots before the end of the day.

Much Love!
-Mangusu

Because I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Its been an awful month of struggling and stress and constant work with each nights sleep oh so lonely.

And I have to appreciate that because I'm very proud of just what I can accomplish when I'm determined.

Thank Everyone who supported us and sent kind words, wishes, and monetary assistance through the situation.

It took the UKBA 4 damn weeks to process a simple application.

Finally I have it there, shiny and majestic in my passport. Official UK Entry Clearance.

I want to imitate Captain America's voice and flash it like a Detective Badge in the Official faces when I land in Heathrow.

[psst fuck Gatwick Airport]

Flying Delta this time as they had the best deal. 1 lay over in Atlanta for a couple of hours. The trip will take about 11hours or more and I shall land on Tuesday.
Man I am going to cry so hard when I see
Gonna be embarrassing. D:

Uhh.. Don't know what else to really mention. Wish me luck. :)

Oh, in case you didn't know I have 3 Twitter accounts.

NO, none of them are after darks... in fact you probably don't want to be anywhere near Tac After Dark.

My main account, I'll post whatever I find significant and of course the occasional drunken tweets are a specialty of mine. Never will you see me go off on a 4 post rant or make spam posts of trivial daily activities.
https://twitter.com/Mangusu

I've run out of steam lately with tweets to come up with. But basically this is an account from the foul mouth of MonsteRoo. Expect insults and arrogance.
https://twitter.com/monsteroosays


Just started this one up and I've got a consistent line up of borderline WhatTheFuck statements, fluffy compulsive sado-masochist activity, and jokes about decomposing. Everything that is basically our dear Tac.

Enjoy :3

Fantastic Weekend Atlanta.

Feels Weekend Atlanta.

[TL:DR - So grateful for the chance to be there, drank drank drank, I have too many friends <3 ]

I had an amazing time. Many great moments were had. I have all my friends to thank for their support and their love. I managed to keep it mostly together.

FWA’s staff are all awesome, I never encountered any problems from them or unjustified fun ruining from the convention staff. They did just about everything in their power to make the convention great. Theres just the unfortunate layout of the hotel that made socializing a bit of a task. It took a little patience but with a bit of effort and texting I usually found someone.

My levels of drunk were:
Thursday: Wonderfully Wasted
Friday: Breakdown, Upchuck, Blackout. ( passed out by 10pm, no bueno)
Saturday: The amazing inebriation marathon.
Sunday: Til the world ends.

Great moments:
-Spending some good time with Mahi who is the best friend a Mongoose could ask for. We hadn’t seen one another in the last 2 years.

-Initial exploration and conquering with Tsukasa on thursday. We were like Peruvian Salt n Pepa, just sticking to it. We even escaped Pyramid head in the stairwell.

-Kwik’s showcase performance at the Dance Comp. Just one of those inspiring in the moment things. We really can pull together. So happy I could have been there to immediately hug and sob on her shoulder over it.

- The awesome layout and camera work going on during floor wars and dance comp. I must say it was quite impressively professional.

-Heading up to Tigerpaws room one night and I drunkingly got excited when I called these three black ladies TLC. At first they were like, lol whut? Then I started singing No Scrubs, then they instantly were singing and the rest of the full elevator too! Before we got to 70 I got a big lip sticked kiss on the cheek from ‘left eye’. Elevator Con wasn’t always so bad XD

-Saturday night drinking till 7am. O.o’ It was like.. I was one an epic drunk final fantasy quest through the Westin going from land to land with a couple of close friends to make a standard 3 fighter party. We even conquered the bonus boss.

Shout outs:
Thank you for always being such a light for me and all the dancers.
You’re a great and caring friend, thank you so much for bed space a couple of those nights.
So happy to have those moments to just be Mongoose buds. Was priceless experience for me.
You two make sure Mahi stops getting himself injured.
Shots and Room party madness, I wish you both all the best in your futures. You’re really are perfect for each other.
So so so so so grateful. Hope everything I’m writing in this journal shows what you’ve given someone by being generous.
“yo EVIL boy why is your incanca so BIIIG”
Maybe we can ride Golden Llamas into Pittypats Porch next time.
6am chair buddies for life. We should do a interpretive dance to express it next time.
love goofing off with ya, its like having a lil cousin to dork around with.
Was a pleasure getting some good dancing moments in with ya. Also so grateful for all the effort you make for the dancer community. If you ever need an extra hand let me know.
You should get quarantined for spreading the feels everywhere. <3

And so many more.. Sparky, Rei, Syd, Rawkzorz, Oreo, Trigger, Carwyn, Mizu, TigerPaw, Jelli, Pip, Flipsta, Shia, Tmain, Doryuu, DarkShift, Monty, Larka, Swainy, Banshee, Remy, Jade, Yippee, EB, athena, geek, RaspberryRoo, diggy, jynx, indi, sassy, ambient, twitch, kanu, ticer, dibbun, sailor moon (gawd feel so bad I still don't know your name) telephone, bluethunder, Duke, Papaya

I held it in pretty well on the final day but it was tough with the realization that most of these people I would not get to see in possibly a year or more.

I love you all and everyone that came up to share their support was sweet too.

I have a friend or two that I must thank for offer I just couldn't refuse.

Last weekend at a party I was convinced that I shouldn't be left home miserable if they could help it. And so I was offered free room and transportation.

So I must tell all my followers that I shall be attending FWA this weekend.

Thank you again for your donations and commissioning if you contributed, I can assure you that the visa application has been sent off and I await the answer in a week or so and that the small amount of funds I will pay are coming from my own account. I wish not to raise any concern someone may naturally ponder given my situation.

That said, I realized last weekend just surrounded by a few friends, my spirit was instantly lifted. You can be sure to see your Mongoose as his good old self. I am so excited to get to see everyone and especially this convention which was my first back in 09'

-Mangusu

and I have been blown away by the generosity everyone has shown.

Seriously I can't thank everyone enough.

I shall edit this journal a bit later to include a progress list of all the commissions I have to get through.
Right now I have to state that I am not accepting any more commissions as I don't want to get overwhelmed and we should have raised enough to pull through at this point.

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

You guys are amazing.

I never saw myself ever having to make one of these journals but we really need your help now.

Dash has lost over 1000 dollars paying for my trip to the UK and as we'd planned to stay together for 6 months,
Id left my job. All I have now to support myself and get that money back is my art. Not to mention now we have to spend
even more money on a visa.

Somehow I have to convince the border agency that my artwork is enough money to support my trip which is now only two months. So my paypal needs to show money incoming ASAP.

This fandom means so much to me, everyone has always given me their support. We really appreciate everyone for giving their advice and comfort.

I've been miserable not having Cameron by my side. I am absolutely determined to get back to him if I have to play this border battle to do it.

Please, to all my friends and supporters. I'm asking for your help.

I'm taking commissions, just note me or skype (mongooseprince) so we can go over it.
Please only commission if you can pay promptly, we have less than a month to get the documents in order.

Thank you for your generosity

If you wish to send donation send to my paypal: incawolf424[at]aol.com
Make sure to note your username in payment so I don't confuse people.

This was going to be a journal about how we had safely landed and I was going to go on about watching a movie called Seven Psychopaths on the plane and it was really awesome....

But nope.

The visa inspector got suspicious when I said I was staying for the allowed 6 months with my partner. (this sort of thing they assume I'll overstay my visit and try to live illegally.) So I was escorted to pick up my baggage and have it hand checked. Everything was alright until they saw my folder of important documents which I wanted to keep safe with me. This is pretty much what terminated me.

So at 7am I was escorted up to a holding room which was the last I got to see of my boyfriend.
Had my picture taken, my finger prints rolled then told I would be seen soon, got patted down well and left in the sound proof holding room.

Hours passed by, I'm still mostly calm but very concerned... surely once they hear my story they couldn't possibly think I was up to anything illegal.

More and more hours going by, remember I'm exhausted from an overnight flight I didn't get much rest on. Theres a few old newspapers and magazines but they got old quickly. Can't listen to music since I can't have my phone.

Finally I'm interrogated, I'm asked many of the same questions again and again. the interrogator has no sign of sympathy nor reasoning with me. He only notes that these flags in my case all point to negative. Theres no room for special cases. I am only a statistic. I finish my interrogation in tears while he just reads the questions typed up for him. "Are you fit, well, and happy?" I cry out no and that I needed to see my boyfriend, I had been in holding for 5 hours by now (there were only 2 detainees in holding at this point) and awake for over 24. Interrogators says he'll see about getting my friend in and that he should have a follow up soon.

Soon, in a bit, not long now.
Kept getting these words. Soon usually turned into 2 more hours, in a bit was close to 3, not long now was 40minutes.
At this point I was pacing frantically in that little room. I think I may have started to frighten the Indian and South African in there a bit. I was given a 5pound calling card which I used to contact my father for 1 minute and a sobbing I love you to Cameron. It was enough at least for them to STAR60 back the pay phone. I had access to food but was too upset to intake anything besides water. I remember at least 4 escapes to the provided bathroom where I held onto the sink and sobbed loudly.

got the final notice in. Officially refused entry and would be sent back ASAP. next flight was in the morning.
by this time the staff that was watching the cell already had their shift end a while ago.
More fake "Soon"s and "in-a-bit"s I try a sandwich, can only swallow 1/4 of it... its alright i don't feel hungry but I only logically think it had been 13 hours since my last meal.

I figure I can at least ask the security to let me be productive. The security is honestly nice but wont do too much without clearance and many repeated requests. I manage to sort out my mixed luggage and squeeze dash's suit in one and mine in another to take back.

It wasn't till 7pm that I was escorted out (patted down again) and put in a van with this detained guy from Trinidad who thinks he's speaking english but isn't....
You know, theres some foreigners that know they can't speak well so they struggle to put words together for you.
Then theres foreigners that think their english is the same as anyone elses and just keep talking no matter how many times you ask them to repeat it. It was like he was unable to sound consonants.

Oh yeah, everyone that I came across was pretty shocked I was American.

So escorted to this illegal aliens detention center. Patted down again. Very much assembled an insane asylum. So a step up from actual prison. the staff there were very nice to me... still tons of waiting on old awful furniture but staff was sincerely interested in my case and talked kindly with me. Most of them were LGBT anyways so they kinda had a biased to a guy just trying to be with his boyfriend. Since I got there so late it was well pass visiting hours which immigration said I'd get to see Cameron then. Nope.

Finally walked to my holding chambers and its 10 minutes till lock down curfew time. Still denied most of my belongings except a change of clothes. Within this time I had to use the open showers then go directly to my shared room with a Uzbekistani fella. He was nice too. The bed was awful, it was like one of those mats preschoolers use for nap time and put on top of a hard wood case. Good thing I'm not tall. Went straight to bed finally.

Uneasy sleep, uncomfortable, several dreams involving cameron.

next morning escorted back into van, Trinidad guy and Vietnamese fella too. 4 more pat downs. We're held for maybe 4 more hours back at the room in Gatwick airport. My dominoe pagoda was still standing from the day before. Apparently I was paid .70 pence for staying at immigration holding asylum. I use it on a last call to cameron. Vietnamese kid gives me his spare change as well. Tells me he'll try to go to America next time. Have a long chat with Dash and I feel better knowing he's alright and being able to tell him how I was. Appetite is back. Escorted to plane, more sympathy from security crew and they tell me how upsetting the immigration officers are. Queues and statistics and such. They send me off and wish me luck.

Now I'm back here.

The good news is that I can reapply for a visa and try again in a few weeks.
We wont get refunded for the plane tickets however.
If you'd like a badge or commission from me please send a note or catch me on skype, I'll get working on it right away.

I feel like I have so much to say but no idea how to put it all together.
Today I leave for my flight to England.
This will the greatest leap I’ve ever taken, but I know I’m in good hands.
I am absolutely excited and feeling really good about this.
Gonna miss a whole bunch of ya and several major cons.
I will not be a FWA, ESG, AC, Or anything in America till September I believe.
However now I get to meet all the UK and European furs
I've got 6 months of adventure coming up.
A big chunk of that is going to be free time while Dash is working.
So please please check my journals for commissions, I wont be able to hold my own job and I really could use this for something to keep me busy.

So... yeah.
Super excited about all the London events and returning to Confuzzled.
Uhhh

so.

Don't know what else to say really, I have so many good memories.. But theres so many more to come.

Love you guys, see you later.
