gizaWell, FurFright 2008 has come and gone, and what a blast it was!
From a socializing standpoint, this convention was a success. The hotel had an atrium in the center which made for a great gathering point, and since the security desk was also there, I got to bump into a great many people even while on duty. This made the con much more enjoyable as "work" was less like "work".
Random people I chatted with (and some I met for the first time at the con):![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shortwave81 (Thanks for the glowsticks!), horny_oryx, Gray Wolf, brothervega (sorry about having a mouth full of Oreos), petercat, unclekage, Grandma Kage, Grandpa Kage, finnishfox, therustyhusky, denimwizard, midori8, creatureshock, davinwarter, farraptor (It's not every day when I meet someone for the first time when they're in fursuit), and tilt_longtail (it was nice meeting you OUT of fursuit!).
keapano, Raff, and Tamen, it was a pleasure meeting you folks for the first time. I hope you'll be able to make it out to more furry cons.
Fennecus Kitsune, it was also cool meeting you for the first time.
boixboi, it was good seeing you again for the first time in what, 3 years? :-)
As I was working security with the Dorsai Irregulars, I got to see some familiar faces there, both DI and non-DI.scs11, Renegade, and Carol Gobeyn were all present, as were drzarron, Xander, Kasi Frost, evil_dwagon, mrianti, toracub, and the rest of you.
athauglas and cliff_husky, you guys completely cracked me up at Cakecon. Yes, Cakecon. It was a real life party with cake. Lots of cake.
If you made it this far, then you're probably looking for my full dump of pictures. They can be found on Flickr at http://flickr.com/photos/dmuth/sets/72157608249142588/.
For a final photo, this istilt_longtail and Grandma Kage, reenacting a famous picture:
My head asplode.
So anyway, I'm looking forward to next year's FurFright.
I'm also looking forward to Midwest Fur Fest next month. I hope to see everyone there!

Date: 2008-10-27 03:12 pm (UTC)I also must ask...do you know who the otter(?) in the Roman Soldier get-up is? I wanted to tell him that I thought the suit and garb was awesome, and to see if that was his fursona as well :)

Date: 2008-10-27 03:14 pm (UTC)Yes, that's
It's not his primary fursona, though.
