I sure am mascotting a lot early this year.

Toby doesn't want to get out of bed today. I don't blame him.

New year, same gig. :)

Happy New Year, everyone! I have made no resolutions other than to continue to enjoy the life I'm living! Here's to a safe and prosperous 2026 for you all!

Happy New Year! 🎉 Now I can go to sleep.

2025 was a good year for me. I got a new company car! Calfurry was a smash hit! I also became a Director at that very large con in IL. I kept at it at the gym; built muscle (but also gained back some fat). All in all, I'm in good shape, have a good job, and have good friends! Onward to '26!

Watched "Stranger Things" series finale and I guess I'm generally satisfied if the goal was to provide a wrap up for every single character. I guess in this age of trigger finger series cancellations by Netflix, I should be happy this show got an actual finale!

Did you know that #furries worldwide have raised over $2.1 million dollars for charity in 2025? Our community made a huge impact! Go check out the #DiggingUpPositivity Furry Charity Index 2025! www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsSm... #Furry #FurryFandom #Charity

I always liked these skate covers for the mascot work.

Toby is pooped from socializing all night. Poor boy!

This was so much fun and we sound so good 💖🐕🎶🎸 Biggest thanks to @calfurry.ca and @kadywerewing.cybersoupent.com #furrymusic #furrymusician

Just since yesterday at 4pm. At least it's finally stopping. Though windy conditions now bring blowing snow!

When you're this good at hockey, you get to play yourself in a tournament!

So much snow...

I don't think these socks I got for Christmas are "official" merch, but I don't care. 🐰🦊

Christmas dinner tonight. The frozen mixed veggies were disappointing at best and my homemade stuffing needed more salt, but the at least the turkey was good!

Totally nerdy Christmas gift.

Apparently, the purple ones aren't popular...

Have a wonderful Christmas, everyone! 🎄❤️🎁

As Santa (Tiggs) makes his way back to the North Pole to recover from a delightful Calfurry Christmas, we'd like to wish you a Merry Christmas, near and far, no matter how you celebrate, we hope this time of year beings you so much joy. 🎄

Sad that he still dances better than I can.

So I finally got around to uploading Furry In C that @triomenagerie.bsky.social hosted at MFF on YouTube! Spread the love, everyone: www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1mh...

✨ YEAR END PRINT SALE ✨ Hey everyone! I attempted a print sale back in November but it didn't get much traction so we're trying it again now that we're closer to the end of the year! Details in the thread below!

Calfurry Christmas was tons of fun!

It was a party! Calfurry Christmas was full of great food, great people, and great times! Now eagerly awaiting September for Calfurry!

Hey @calfurry.ca !!! LEARN THESE LYRICS!!! So excited to sing with y'all tomorrow! #furrymusic #furry #calfurry2025 (W/ @robinhearts.bsky.social and @adamott.cybersoupent.com and @cooozy.bsky.social 💛)

Sundog!

Found out today that at some point in 2026, I'll have to make a trip down to Minneapolis for work. It's been a long time since I've been there so I might extend my stay beyond work if I can!

After having to wait out the winter storm earlier today (first pic shows less than 25ft visibility, second pic shows what it looked like when I finally got back on the road), I got back to my hotel in Calgary about 3.5 later than I hoped. So, I treated myself to prime rib!

The timing worked out, so I'm excited to watch this show featuring Calfurry's own @tarrinotter.bsky.social! This will hopefully get me into the Christmas spirit... It's felt in-Christmassy this year so far.

We got shoved into the ass end of no where at MFF's dealers den, any re-posts would be awesome to help spread the word about the new shoe colours we're working on. Especially now, any money we're making is gonna have to go on lawyers if we go against Fortnite... Merry Christmas. >.=.>

I finally got my Snoopy doughnuts from Krispy Kreme!

Even the hotels are in on it! #pawbert

My usual "on the road for work" dinner.

Annual display of the many Disney ornaments in my Christmas tree.

Step right up, step right up! Registration for Calfurry 2026 - Midway Mayhem is now available! Interested in what each tier of registration has to offer? We've created a handy graphic to show you what's available at each tier. Early Bird pricing is available until March 1! www.calfurry.ca/reg

Maverick's Donuts are very pretty and taste great, too! And, there would be a half dozen in this photo if I hadn't devoured one before I thought to take the pic.

Oh, good! It's warming up!

There's less than a dozen tickets remaining for a Calfurry Christmas, so grab one while you still can and join us in Edmonton on the 20th for a wonderful evening! ❄️ www.calfurry.ca/christmas

I think I'll stay in today.

Congratulations to @rabidruckus.bsky.social on becoming the new champion of this year's Cutthroat Artist at MFF, narrowly defeating @shadlycrue.com! Below is the artwork that came out of the contest! Thanks to all the competitors!

Thinking about this: with MFF's attendance just shy of 17K, and assuming not all of them are on site at the same time, it could be as many as 15 to 25% of all people that were on site attended the Opening or Closing Shows. That's amazing!

I just learned how many people would have been in the audience at the completely packed Main Stage at MFF when I hosted the Opening Show. 2,525!!! While I don't think I get stage fright, I'm kinda glad I didn't know this beforehand!

There's only 10 days left until a Calfurry Christmas and we want you to join us! - A limited quantity of tickets remain, so get it now as they will not be available for purchase at the door. See you soon!🎄 www.calfurry.ca/christmas

Ten days left pick up a Club Calfurry membership - until December 19, you can pay $120+GST in a single fee or as monthly payments at $10/month+GST and save, earn exclusive perks throughout the years, get access to unique merchandise, and more! Visit calfurry.ca/club today and save!

Waking up after finally getting a solid night's rest (after 5 nights at MFF where sleep was in very short supply) was wonderful!

Home and in my own bed. Did have to deal with freezing rain making the nearly hour long drive home from the airport a bit sketchy, but no issues to report. I'll wait to unpack (my luggage & my thoughts on my experiences) until tomorrow!

Just about to land. The adventure is almost over except for the drive home!

Looks like I will beat this system home by a couple of hours. Not looking forward to what the roads will be like in the morning.

And that's a wrap~ Thank you to all attendees, staff, and EVERYONE involved with making this a great weekend! Join us next year, December 3-6 2026, for Midwest FurFest: Bark to the Future! Safe travels, and GOOD NIGHT 🦝
