So, there were some good things, some bad things, and some frustrating things. Not all related to the con but the things unrelated did make a difference in what all happened there.
Starting with Thursday, we planned to be there but something that made Jon really unhappy happened at his work and he found out about it. This put him in such a bad mood that we didn't even get to AC on Thursday as planned.
Friday, probably due to the stress related from Thursday, we got up later than planned and didn't get to AC until later than we wanted to. I missed the first seminar I wanted to attend. But, I got a phone call from my brother
CadpigJr that his car that had broken when he was on the way to the convention was fixed so I took him to pick up his car from the local repair place before headig over to registration. I am happy it got fixed so quickly so he could go home Monday. One really important thing was getting to the dealer's room Friday to pick up the pony I pre-ordered from 
AnimeAmy which is totally cute... http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4042350/ Probably the most fun thing on Friday was the Metalfurs panel we went to and we got to talk to lots of people there. Plus, we got to go to a good place for dinner with 
Wolger2579 where we got huge 16" sandwiches and drinks for under $15. When leaving Friday, I also got to meet someone else from FA 
Scared_lioness who happened to be sitting outisde when we were leaving and I recognized her from pictures she recently posted of herself on FA.
Saturday we pretty much skipped all of the panel we had planned to go to, partly because I didn't get to go to the related panels on Friday. We did see the masquerade and Uncle Kage's Story Hour. We went home after that and came back Sunday. One good thing that happend Saturday is that I got to meet one of my favorite artists on FA
AgentElrond.
Sunday was the shortest day. I got to visit my brother some more and on a final trip around the dealer's room, I found something small I could buy with the remaining food money since I decided to just eat at home, we picked up a bunny decal for on my car.
Another person who I got to meet, whose art I like here is
TristanAlexander... I didn't list him in any particular day because I saw him every day of the con.
There were a few bad things that I decided to list at the end so as to not point out and day or person in particular.
I did attempt to meet another artist whose work I like here on FA. However, that person was rather unpleasant so I did not introduce myself as watching them on FA. I also dont plan to name them here because it always is possible they were having a bad day and maybe I will try again next year.
One of my friends who I have known for a while actually was rather unfriendly toward me in front of a lot of people and also made me feel rather like me and my work are worthless in their eyes and I am not really sure what to do about that. Again, no name here on purpose, I only have my negative experiences listed to show that the con was not perfect, not to cause any drama in general or toward any particular person(s).
Anyway, the con was both good and bad, but the most important thing is that I got to visit with friends and that I got to meet a few nice people from here on FA.
