just another 'Back from Anthrocon' Journal!
13 years ago
If you're not sick and tired of reading these yet, here's one more! I know I'm late, but I wanted to post a quick note to thank everyone for what's probably been one of the better Anthrocon outings for me.
Before I begin, I couldn't possibly list everyone here that I saw and met up with. Every year I go I meet more and more people that I talk to online, and it becomes a much better experience every time. I'd always dreaded not finding my friends and having a lack of things to do, which at a convention this size is inevitable at some point. Thankfully though the times I found myself alone, I was thankful for a bit of a break.
People of note:
dewclawpaw and
revadiehard it was a blast meeting you Paw for the first time. I was glad to have met up with the two of you, and it was fun hanging out, you two were great!

pimpuigi always a blast to meet up with you guys, Ben, I know you're busy and you got called away a lot, but I come to expect that. No worries, I really did have a great time!
zerohenny it was great to meet up with you, I didn't see you much past Saturday, but I hope this con was a good one for you too, man!
Let's see, my roommates:
stahi
sirkain
zenguin Thanks for a fun weekend together. I'd gladly be your roommate again!
In short, what made the weekend really great was all the people that I'd met up with during the weekend. I felt much more in the mood to draw than I did last year, and I even did a few treades as well! Special thanks to
plasmacat I'd wanted to meet up with you for a long time man, it was a pleasure! One of my goals for next year is to try to be in the Artists Alley for a bit. I'm a bit slow and really self conscious at times but I'll do my best to draw something you like ^^
OH! One last thing- this year I had NO TAKE HOME COMMISSIONS to worry about, everything was done before the convention. I thought for sure
gideon was going to miss me before he had to take off. I tweeted and SECONDS later he called me! OH DAYYYUM!!! I felt really bad about that, man, he's amazing. I doubt he'll read this but I am sorry about that and again I thank you. I always look forward to buying some sketches from you whenever I meet up with you at a convention, thanks!
special thanks to
maxblackrabbit for bringing my artwork again, Azuul looks amazing, always a pleasure to see you sir!
Does anyone know what happened to
dcrabbit? he was signed up for artists alley for saturday and Sunday. i was hoping to pick up my commission from a few years back, but...oh well, maybe next year! -or MFF, which is hopefully my next convention!
So many people I wanted to meet up with, but somehow missed over the course of the weekend including
furian who caught me walking through the Zoo minutes before he had to leave for the weekend. If anyone else I left out I apologize, this journal's already riddled with icons!

Sorry I missed you at the con. It was a trip this year too. Especially watching all the people come for pics of their kids with the fursuiters :)

OP
that's very true. I was surprised to see how many people were there with their kids.

There were a number of parents that were fun to watch. My fav was the one crossing the street with her kids saying (quite loudly) We're gonna fins us some furry people!
