Forever Friends

Whelp, here is my post-FC journal that has been WAYYYY overdue, along with countless submissions but that'll come in due time...
First off, I want to point out that it has been a 2 WHOLE years since I went out to see anyone in CA. Ever since my initial departure to AZ and my time here in MO, it has been 2 long, and short, years since Ive been home. I want to thank
illusiveraven ,
Pchan , and
Eynkiwolf again for making this experience very worth while and amazing every step of the way (Even all the miles driven *glares at PCHAN >:] )
My initial feelings on the whole thing about CA was seeing everyone again and it wasnt just because it was Con time but because I had missed out on so much ever since I left. I cant even begin to list all the things Ive missed out but I came out to CA to make up for that time. To share smiles that were way overdue, to share the laughs that Ive held back on for so long and ultimately to see everyone have a good time again. Essentially, exactly how I remember everyone as I left both CA and AZ.
The con itself was AMAZING and just as fun as I will always remember FC to be. I got to see A LOT of faces there and with it being such a crazy environment, I couldnt hang out with everyone I wanted to but I still made my time there worth every second. Whether I was taking pictures, or hanging around with peeps, or eating....I was doing SOMETHING I always enjoyed. Thanks to Pchan, we were able to get access to the concierge lounge and on thursday night we had gone up to see the San Jose city lights and it was beautiful. It reminded me of the scene where the gang from Hangover (part 1) went on the roof to take shots and they were over looking the city...yeah, same thing. Great friends, great parties, good times, and ALCOHOL! :DDD
During my days there all I could reminisce is how good it felt to be with everyone again. The gang, as a I call it. My hood brothers, bros and sis...it was great. Hopefully one day I can go back soon and even more hopeful that E can come out and experience CA himself to see what my home looks like. As E knows, I ALWAYS talk about and brag about and spout about and go-on about all my friends in CA, the things Ive done, the funny stories Ive had, the bad...I had basically had given him the verbal encyclopedia of my CA life and I want him to see it himself that it is a pretty place to be and with amazing people all around to be with.
The parties I were part of were very fun and I quickly got to meet some new peeps but the main party I went was the greatest one. Wont go into details, since theres so much, but plain short, It was great to see everyone who participated and I snapped wonderful pictures to share with everyone <3
As for the final hours of the con, Pchan, Rauron, Raven, and I had made the best of it going to San Jose Japan town to hang out and get some food before we left (WHILE NOT DYING FROM A CAR CRASH) and we had fun (not dying LOL) but what made those final hours so hard was saying goodbye to my best friend...
...we go way back, and after 9 years, yeah...I cansay we go WAYYY back. Almost a decade ago and we are still besties and I know we'll always be. To this very day, not argued a single time. Can finish each other sentences. Can psychically tell if something is going down...the special connection is there and I cherish it. It is the most important friendship I have and we joke around saying that we're married but at this point in life. Ive accepted her as my platonic 'wife' and I know I'm her 'husband' too :D Despite how long I spent in CA, it felt like it was nowhere nearly enough...I still had a couple friends say they were going to come down but they flaked...but overall I still felt like Raven and I at least still had time but sure enough it had ran out. We had made the best of it, as best friends, as forever friends, and made our long goodbyes a good one.
After hanging in AZ for a day, before I knew it, I was already on the plane back to MO and as the plane was getting ready all I could think of was how amazing it was to be with everyone again and I hope it happens again real soon!
( I know it wasn't as emotionally in-depth I wanted my words to be but no words can express how important my friends are to me. You know who you are and for that, you'll always be my forever friend)
~Cheers~

E NEEDS, and I cant emphasize on the word enough, but NEEDS to see Humboldt the same way I did!
And its cause I love you enough to not leave your side <3 <3

Hope we get another chance to hang out soon!
I don't think I can even attempt to write a journal like this one, telling tales of our adventures at FC, without getting teary eyed.
It was so much fun. You're my bestie, you mean the world to me, and always will. My hetero life mate. <3
