I have been in the fandom for 11 years now. It has been an amazing journey for me. I've been having a blast, and have been overwhelmed with the warmth and kindness of the people I have met.
I got my fursuit 8 amazing years ago at FC2013, and I've been thrilled beyond words with him. It's been a life-changing experience!
With rare exceptions, all the art and photos I submit here are somebody else's creative work, and I will credit them whenever possible.
The writing I do is called creative non-fiction, sometimes called memoir or personal essay. I write about my work, my travels, and my experiences in life. :)
I have found a home in this community, and love meeting other furs. Feel free to note me or contact me via other social media.

It's Time for TFF!
5 years ago
I'm heading out tomorrow for Texas Furry Fiesta. Five years ago, I got accidentally stranded in Dallas on the same weekend as TFF. Friends took me in, gave me a bed in a hotel room, and even lent me a fursuit. A travel disaster became one of my favorite stories of what a great community we have, and even though I was only at my first TFF for about 12 hours, I fell in love with this con. I'm looking forward to my sixth Fiesta! See y'all there!
As always, there WILL be a purple pic, immediately after the parade. Meet in the room where the parade ends! Look for the purple giraffe, and follow my twitter for details, at zarafagiraffe
Days staying:
Arriving Thurs 2/27/20 around 9:30pm ish.
Staying til Mon morning, 3/2/20.
Staying at:
The Hyatt.
How are you traveling?
Flying!
Who are you rooming with?
riothewhiteotter
Who will you be with?
New friends, old friends, anybody, everybody! I tend to be a social giraffe!
Where will you be?
All over the map. Socializing in random places. Hanging out till the wee hours. (This giraffe is a night owl!) The Dances. Roaming the hallways. Anyplace with coffee! Hanging out in the lobby.
How is the best way to find you?
Text me. DM me on Twitter. Message me on FA. Telegram me. Look for the purple giraffe!
What do you look like?
A purple short-necked giraffe. Or the guy with grey hair. I put the gray in greymuzzle!
What is your gender?
Guy
How old are you?
61! I can't believe it myself. How did that happen? :) One day I may actually grow up, but apparently not in the near future.
Are you mated/in a relationship?
Nope. Single. Would be nice, though.
How tall are you?
5'9" I am a short-necked giraffe. A rare subspecies.
Can I talk to you?
Of course!
Can I hug and/or snuggle you?
Oh my YES! I do love hugs, snuggles and huggles!
Are you nice?
I sure hope so!
Are you cliquey?
Heck no!
Are you fursuiting?
HECK! YES!! I'm just a teeny bit addicted!
Which suit(s) will you be bringing?
Zarafa the purple giraffe! YAYYY!
Can I try on your suit?
I haven't been able to bring myself to loan out Zarafa.
If I see you, how should I get your attention?
Yell "Zarafa!" Or "Hey Giraffe!" "Hey You" will do in a pinch.
Do you take commissions?
Nah. I don't art.
Dealers den?
I'll be there, checking stuff out.
Can I draw in your sketchbook?
If I had one.
Can we hang out?
Sure! I tend to be pretty social.
Can I talk to you?
Of course! Please do! I am always up for meeting new people and hanging with friends! Please feel free to come up and say hello!
Giraffes don't bite, but hugs may occur!
Where will you be eating?
A good question. Usually a spontaneous last minute decision. Frequently in the hotel or the food trucks. Coffee will need to be acquired. As long as it's after 11 am. This giraffe is not a morning giraffe. :)
Can I come to dinner with you?
Yes, of course! In general, I'm a "the more, the merrier" kind of giraffe. The only exception being if we're going someplace with limited space.
Can I ask ya to dance with me during the dances?
Please do! I LOVE dancing with new people and making new friends! Please feel free to find me as I flail away!
Can I buy you drinks?
Sure! But I'm a lightweight giraffe. And buzzed giraffes are kinda silly; we trip over our long legs and bump our heads on things.
Do you attend parties?
Yup! It's always a battle between the dances and the parties. :) It's a great problem to have-- too many fun things to do!
Can I take your picture?
Of course! I love having my picture taken. If you do, send me the link so I can post it.
May I kidnap you to my room?
Maaaybee... Whaddya got in mind? ;)
Attending any events?
The Fursuit Parade. The dances. The Dealer's Den. THE PURPLE PIC!
What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
Fun, fursuiting, friends. Repeat as necessary!
I'm kinda consistent that way!
