I went to Furloween yesterday Night. It was awesome, I haven't had that much fun in quite a long time. My friend Chase even let me wear his Fursuit, so long as I role played his fursona well. It was amazing having that suit on to be honest. Having on a fursuit is like a shyness shield. I came up to people and just started dancing with them, and was so animated that I had a little following.(more for the suit, than me but oh well!)
This made me want one of my own. It was just a really good time, and I'm glad I went. I met a few new friends. Though I should have received their contact info, but oh well. I"m sure if they really want to find me, they'll be able too. I even won a costume contest, due to the suit I was wearing and a clever skit.
The one down side is that wearing a fursuit is a lot of work. You get hot and sweaty, then fatigue sets in. I didn't realize how much work it was to dance and be aware of others around you. As you're vision and hearing are severely reduced. Also the personal bubble issue is always violated while in suit. People grab, hug, pinch, and other things in it. Still it was loads of fun!
