I know it's getting a little late for an "AnthroCon Report Journal" but it's been a rather busy week for me...

Anywho, on with the [quick] recap!
(In point form, of course!)

Recap:
•Our group consisted of Sylus-Foxdragon, Quadra, my furry-curious friend Dan, Jasen Tamiia (he met us there) and myself.
•We were supposed to leave on Tuesday June 22nd at around 10AM but, due to some trouble finding our rental car, we left around noon.
•Our GPS tried to send us in the wrong direction 'cause it's evil... (More on this later!)
•Took a roundabout route to avoid all possible toll booths.
•Along the way, my eyes started to burn again and I almost crashed the car... (But didn't 'cause I'm awesome & stuff!)
•Roundabout route brought us to a middle-of-nowhere boarder crossing.
•Boarder guards were somewhat hatin' on Furries ("Oh! You mean those people that dress up like animals & stuff...") and decided to search our trunk.
•They immediately open my bag and ask "What's the tape for?".
•Without thinking, I answer "It's bondage tape. There's also some rope in there too. You know, for tying people up!" and somehow manage to not get in trouble.
•They sigh and flag us through.
•Along the way, the GPS kept adding time to our ETA.
•At one point, I had to swerve to avoid killing a fox and the GPS was all like "NO!! You should have killed it!! Two more minutes added to your ETA!!".
•The rest of the trip there was alright except for driving in Pittsburgh 'cause the roads there are stupid.
•We get at the hotel on Wednesday at around 2AM and pass-out hardcore. (What does "pass-out hardcore" even mean?)
•The rest of Wednesday was spent goofing off, relaxin', meeting people (like Vinter for instance) and a bunch of other stuff...
•Thursday was for registration, hanging out and drinking. We also got to meet Arandus, Kalira9, Bierzun, Kaltag, Avianmaverick, Lariat and a bunch of other people!
•Friday was when I started to blow my money on stuff in the Dealer Den... Specifically on Bad Dragon stuff...
•More hanging-out and meeting-people was had.
•Spent more money in Dealer Den on Saturday, hung-out with a bunch more people, drank a bunch of alcohol, had loads of fun, etc...
•Sunday was spent working on a dastardly scheme to get my mom into the fandom as a "furry accessory designer" for a possible free trip to AC 2012 >:)
•I hurt my right wrist doing some really gay stuff and loved every minute of it~
•Left early Monday morning and decided to just take the damn tolls... (For under $20, it cut 2 hours off our trip time and we got to stop of at Lake Ontario for a short rest...)
•Had fun declaring all of my Bad Dragon purchases to the boarder dude.
•Once back in Canada, the GPS started to take time off our ETA!
•Only once we got back to Montreal did we realize that this was just a trick to demoralize us further...
•All of the exits that we needed to take were closed and super long detours were in order.
•We finally get to the drop-off point and leg it to the Metro.
•We catch the last train and go home.
•The next 2-3 days were spent taking care of my various accounts, shuffling money around, paying debts and other boring stuff.

Conclusion:
•AnthroCon 2011 was hella fun and I can't wait till AC 2012!

Plans for next year's convention:
•Maybe getting a suite instead of a regular hotel room.
•Will probably take the plane instead of driving.
•Might make and wear a fursuit.
•I won't forget my art supplies next time (i.e.: Laptop + tablet).
•Will work on being more social & stuff.
•Slim down a tad...
•Will make sure that, next time, there's enough time to cuddle after~





P.S.
Have a happy Canada Day, peoples!
May all of your Canada-based wishes come true~
