furfest

furfest (-) 

still waiting... the line is utterly motionless. registration ostensibly opened an hour ago

furfest 

tyffy got her badge yaaay

i have no standout characteristics so i'll probably be hard to find tho, so if you want to hang out just ping me here or elsewhere

furfest, whereabouts 

im in the hotel starbucks near registration wheee. for the next few minutes anyway, then im goin to the art show probably i guess?

furfest 

i keep hearing rumors of friends and cool people and cool friends being here, but they aren't responding to my entreaties to hang out. grumble

furfest 

day 2: start! excited for everything to open finally

furfest 

gettin starbs in the hilton lobby and then ill be floating around the dealer's den and artist alley probably

furfest, kinda sad 

im departed from furfest... it was a lot of fun, im sad i didn't get to see more folks or spend more time with them

i bought so much goddamn stuff, packing was a struggle

i had a great time

furfest 

if you're curious about my con armor: i ended up getting seven badges at this con. if you ever hope to defeat me, you must collect them all and attach them to the sacred lanyard

furfest 

in other words, i'm something of a badge-r now

i think that's all that was especially notable. i also got one of those baseball caps with a basic LED screen in it but forgot it at the hotel room; someone is gonna ship it to me

re: furfest, con armor 

@typhlosion so many typhloofs!

furfest, kinda sad 

@typhlosion Glad it went well for you. :3

Are you going to show the stuff later?

furfest con haul 3/end 

@typhlosion :O

Did Sandra SanTara actually paint a feather or is that a clever illusion?

furfest, kinda sad 

@typhlosion Congratulations on your first con!

furfest, reply 

@OchotonidKnight first furry con! i've been to magfest for the past three years, and i'm going in 2020 too

but furfest was a whole different experience for sure

furfest, reply 

@typhlosion I have never been to Magfest before!

I would love to get the opportunity some day.

re: furfest, kinda sad 

@typhlosion i'm glad you enjoyed it!
