By my paws and stub tail

  One would not think that being a bear could be technical.  After all sneaking up on an innocent black berry shouldn't present problems, it doesn't require much stealth.  So, black berries were not a problem and were plentiful I might add, giving me a cheerful breakfast each morning and a nice snack mid-day once I had left Oklahoma (where berries ( Read more... )

Why, thank you, my very dear.

I happen to think that you dance charmingly; I have seen you keep time to the music which you so obviously love. Bears dance in their own way and it makes me smile to watch you do it. I wish I'd gotten to see you and Brother William co-scratching; what a cute image!

Oh the photo of Brother Williams and I would have been a classic! As you know I generally don't go by my vision in my negotiation of an area, I can't stand sweat in my eyes, very occasionally a nice gust of wind comes and dries the sweat and so I use that glimps through a quarter sized hole to orient on landmarks. It just so happened that occurred during your court dance ( ... )

That would have made an awesome photo; perhaps the chance still exists to get one taken! I'll put a bug in the right ear(s).

Why, thank you, my dear. Truth is that I have a horrid memory for the dance steps and so dancing with Jeremy/King James is an utter delight; he makes me look good. I'm the most amazing klutz, really, so the grace is acting, it is.

I'm very much hoping that Heartland moves up by a couple of weeks; having trouble getting in contact with Glenn to firm that up but soon as I know anything, I'll broadcast it.

You had me convinced for certain. Quite the thesbian you are. If Brother Williams is around and sees me scratching a nice post, he'll most certainly join in. Klutzing though is taken to a high art by most all bears. Any ursine in the family history there?
O! I sewed my paws. Marc spoke with me and he said he thought he'd found the right adhesive but clearly not. He agreed the best solution was to sew them pad by pad. I was surprised that he has not learned this through all three iterations. I spent most of today sewing my paw pads nice and carefully, they won't separate now, at least, easily from a bit of humidity. I decided I should even primp a bit and polish all of my claws too.

Speaking of Ren fairs,have you seen my recent fursuit pictures?

Saw those photos byron_bear June 30 2009, 13:34:29 UTC
The most recent ones I saw were from Norman. I'll prolly be there each year from here on in. I did see the characature, it doesn't convey the mysterious nature of Romani.
Nice days for fursuiting btw, the current ones are good too, folks interacting with me who are having trouble with the heat and humidity, feel cooler after being around me = )

You were doing a charming dance along with the Ozark Mountain Gypsy's. Very nice hip slides. : )

The pride of hips byron_bear June 30 2009, 14:11:15 UTC
That's awsome sweet of you. Being a bear, I'm quite fond of my rotundity and us bears have nice hips which can displace a lot of space and never do we lose the swagger and careful control we exert there that comes from having a stub tail, it's the way we make up for not having a long tail :)
My paws won't extend in the same wise as you humans since they are built for walking more than moving to the sides, so, I can not accent my moves so easily. Front paws can move some to the sides but our shoulders run along our rib cages rather than the back of the shoulder, so the movement is restricted in that wise.
I love how humans have such a range of motion of their fore-limbs. Even when I try to wave I can't quite turn my paw directly forward and human paws can do. The easy motion and suttle nuance human paws and fore-limbs really add a lot to accent the nuances of sway and shift of body. Very alluring when that all comes together. Oh, did I tell you how much I love Ozark Mountain Gypsies? Lovely, very lovely!

I know at least one bear who can Hokey Pokey, and as you know, that is really what it's all about!!

Sophistication byron_bear July 1 2009, 03:33:32 UTC
Oh most certainly! You put your left paw in and put your left paw out. That might actually be more sophisticated than patty cake. Hmm, I'm becoming a sophisticated bear!
