I am really glad that I was able to go to RCFM. This was actually only my second convention ever (the first being FWA). Really, this was rather small and quiet, but it was a great vacation among furry friends!
The previous year, I had this dream that I made a deal with  aerinpierce that I would pay if they would drive. After mentioning this dream, we both seemed to like the idea (as I was willing to pay for us both in order to make it to at least one con). Time passed, and there were many moments where it looked as though we wouldn't be able to go through with it, but ultimately it turned out we could do this after all.
So, we met up thursday, and woke up early friday morning. On the trip up, I pointed out there was a town called "Jumbo" off the interstate, and jokingly suggested that we should stop and see if there are shirts that say something like "everything's bigger in Jumbo!" Apparently. I was the only one that found that (as well as some other odd place names) funny. But, it went by surprisingly quickly, even if my boredom induced antics(such as headbanging to a really chill song and pointing out place names like "tater knob" on the map) were rather annoying.
We got there! Unfortunately, we couldn't check in until 3pm, and it was around 9:30am! I was covered in cat hair and sweet, and I wanted a shower, I wanted to change, and I wanted to get registered. Still, we met some awesome people from the very start.
After Finally getting registered, checked in, showering, changing, and then going to opening ceremonies, we both went our separate ways for the majority of the convention. For the most part, I just hung out and met several furs. And why not, it was a great con for hanging out and making friends!
Who did I meet? Well, I met quite a few people, and I may try to list those, I can remember later
