Just haven't been around here in ages. So I thought I'd post to say I'm still alive. And my family is safe too so far. I hope you are also safe in these times. Odd. Cons will probably all be canceled this year. Mine was,,, I was planning my birthday at Motor City con. Darn,, but, I'm good with that except for the loss of hugs. I rebuilt my suit body,,,, by my very own self to get ready for that con too. I don't think I did too bad,, but jeez I have an incredible appreciation for the suit makers who make this stuff look so easy. They are so freeking talented ,,, you really don' t know until you try to make one your self. Now for more stories. Unfortunately non fiction this time. I lost a few Aunts and Uncles this year. Now don't send condolences,, cause,,,,Two of them were in their 90's and died 4 weeks apart from each other. He was a WWII vet and she was from Orland Park IL. Beautiful people and in love for life. Now the other Uncle. He and I were close. I could tell endless stories,,, and I did a few here. Sad part is, as he got in his older age, he got Parkinson's,,, depression and started to abuse substances. Led to bad judgement and this man we no longer new,, went out an shot a man dead in cold blood. He got 999 years in the pen and died in prison last month. Actually we are all relived. Cause the man we loved died when he pulled that trigger.
We still don't know why. Now as I said we were close long ago. 1985s ish. I ended up with his wool jackets one of which AJ is wearing in this pic. Kinda tight,, but,, I know ,, furries,,, like tight. ^^. I think he looks good,, maybe a few more tweaks but all in all ,, brand new suit. Well cept for the head. That was perfection I cannot mess with. The other body suit had some ,,,um ,,, ummm,,,, wear and tear on it. Yeah,,, so,,, This one is nice and new. And nothing smells as good as brand new fur. You all take care and stay safe as you can. I hope to hug you all again soon.

Just had another B-day too. So I'm feeling all nostalgic and , well old I guess. No cons probably this year. I just pulled the plug on Motor City Con. Rescheduling is not going to work. I wanted to go the weekend of my birthday (last weekend). Had my suits all tuned up for it too. Well I hope you are safe up there and you have plenty of toilet paper. Don't get me started on that here in our grocery stores. F#$%@&! idiots. I haven't been on here in a long time but nice to know there are some nice peeps I still know from back in the day. lol. P.S. I don't know why it labeled me as a fursuit maker. I think pretty much anyone who owns a fursuit ends up doing a bit of sewing. Nods to you though. I always get a kick out of running across pics of your suits in obscure little corners of the world web. Nice job Mr. 6. Nicely done.
Take care always.

Most all furcons are either postponed or cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic anyway, as most likely all cons, meets, events, festivals, etc will be cancelled this year. 2020 is the year we as a species will remember for a long time.. I been trying to thrive in this furry fandom for over 20+ years now.. and don't know how much longer i can keep up the fight to be a "someone" in it, but will try to enjoy every happy day i can that is left of my time.
