From Wild Nights...
I definitely thought I wasn't going to be able to go, but thankfully with the help of my direct supervisor and one other, and working with our scheduling people I was able to get Saturday off, because that was the day that I was not being given off for going to the convention. I had been approved for Sunday/Monday but that wasn't good enough I had to have Saturday or else the trip would've been a bust.
So yea, the convention...
Truthfully it could have been better. It is an outdoor convention and the weather was very dreary and rainy (off/on) the entire convention. Still regardless it was fun being with friends and all. Met new people, made new acquaintances, hopefully new friends and all. Will have to see how things go.
I was in a couple variety show skits and think overall the variety show went fairly well. I see definite areas of improvement on how things could be managed and properly rehearsed... Had some A/V issues and a couple other things... Other than that it went over fairly well.
The only annoying thing was the flooding that happened Sunday. Since things were so dreary I was deciding to come back home on Sunday, but didn't get to because of a storm that rolled in. It's good a lot of other people left earlier in the day or right before the storm hit. I hope all made it home ok. I did today.
The only annoying thing after getting back home is that right before I left Thursday for the con my XBoX360 worked, and now it doesn't... Power cord has a red light on it and the stupid thing won't turn on... I hope it didn't go bad... Will hafta try another power cord and such.
In any case, hope you all are doing well!

Sorry we didn't get more time. I should be at FC if you wanna chat with Kobi and I there. I can introduce you to
But I'm very glad you made it home safely. :)
Overall it went as well as could be expected. I think this year's was way better than last year's... Technical difficulties not withstanding. I'm glad I got to see some more of what goes on as it's learning experiences for me for what will need to be for Furry Fiesta.
Other things if you want we can go over more in person or IM if you would like.
