Convention Schedule (for the rest of 2009)

[furtech]

I think I'm going to pass on Fanime this year: most of the people I want to see aren't going and those few that are going I'll see at SDCC a month or so later. The one project I was thinking of doing for this con I got nothing done on (including contacting the person who'd wear it!), so maybe next year.

Another reason to skip Fanime is that another friend is lobbying heavily to get me to come up for the Maker Faire the following weekend. I'm tempted...it sounds like a lot of fun and mind-stimulating creativity.

The next con: SDCC! Aka, ComiCon International. The Big Store!

After that, Eurofurence! Sugar-Coke! Raw Sausage! Horse-milk liquer! Costumes and puppets galore!

BlizzCon: aggh! Logged on at 10am sharp on Saturday to buy tickets: I was 7,849 in line! Tickets sold out when I was still some three-thousand customers away. Gonna try again on the 30th. But if I don't get a ticket, I'll live. No costume for this year and I never even got through the lines to the stores last time.

Then...maybe nothing for the rest of the year. 2 possible trips to Seattle: I'm considering Rainfurrest (though their theme this year is -zombies-, my least favorite horror theme). The other trip would be just me and the dogs renting a cottage on a beach in western Washington in the middle of winter (when they're dog-friendly). All of these things are subject to change...it's been an "interesting" year.

Other possible trips: Minneapolis to visit friends and freeze to death.

You're making an "Alex" costume? Cool-- that mane will be a piece of work to see! I love the idea of the boombox: that's a great way to create your own atmosphere and give yourself something to do (<--so I'll be stealing borrowing this idea in future!). I hate doing solo walkarounds because I have nothing to play off of. Carrying one's own soundtrack could solve this!

I totally apologize for this, but who are you? I have a terrible head for names and faces...if we've interacted (LJ?) I hope it was when I wasn't cranky. The only place I know I'll be for sure is at the masquerade, but not in costume (I'm stage-assisting my friends in AGSMA).

Hehe no prob Id be honored if you borrowed the idea.
We met a few years ago at the garg gathering when you wore the egypt costume, which was awsome :P

I was going to do the masqurade this year but I didnt have enough time to finish the costumes Im working on for that. Im doing the swat cats.
