Otakon 2011

Awesome Friends!In no real order, of course, my delicate darlings: 
So!
I made a last minute, extremely spontaneous visit to Otakon this year! I've never been before, and when I heard a certain friend was going, I couldn't resist. We live about 7-8 hours away from each other, and Otakon is (travel time wise) right in the middle. I had off from work on Friday, and wasn't in till 3pm the next day, so I bought my bus ticket, and traveled on over Thursday night. Crashed Natasha's room, and used her phone to get him to come over to the hotel, to surprise him. I'm so clever. XD
SO HAPPY I went, and I met/re-met some awesome people. I had the greatest time...I just wish I could have stayed another day! <3 you all!
Also, something magical and horrible happened....I went to grab my luggage from the hotel's check-in, and I happened to have misplaced my ticket stubs. Totally lost them. I described them beautifully, but there were no bags in sight. Not even other people's. I nearly lost my mind. There was some pretty important things in those bags. My store's keys, my flip cam, my car and house keys....my pain killers....other stuff....Thank god
and 
were with me to comfort me. I would have freaked out completely if I was alone. You guys are awesome, and I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
After they couldn't find my bags, I went up to the room, got an orange soda to try and cheer myself up a little (BC I LOVE THAT SHIT!), sat down in the middle of the room, looking all miserable, and didn't say a word. I couldn't. I didn't want to cry again.
asked if I was alright, I responded "They can't find my bags..."
She replied "They're right over there"
I looked, and just lost it. I started to cry so hard, out of pure relief. I couldn't hold it in. I was sobbing...and my friends were like wtf...It was good crying! Happy tears!
Not one of us knows how the bags got to the room, though. I gave no names, didn't know the room number until I was on my way back later, and I never gave anyone my tickets stubs. and I had to have gone through a time-space warp, where we exchanged the tickets, and then our memories were erased, for the good of the planet. That's the only valid explanation I can come up with.
That was the only bad part of the whole trip. That, and the fact that I could only stay for one day.
I can't wait to see you guys at Fur Fright!!
