Back from MWFF, and I only threw up once!
12 years ago
Soooooooooooo, that marks my third MWFF or MFF or... whatever they've finally decided the proper acronym is. And, as with the previous two outings, I have to say that this one was yet another honest-to-goodness-to-pete blast. I got to see all sorts of people I've missed dearly, got to see the sights, see the shows, see the fursuits, see the costumes (that people were somehow not embarrassed to be seen in), and had all sorts of other fun... most of which I was sober for, this time. x3
HIGHLIGHTS
-Once again, roomies
mapdark and
emorottie were awesome and fantastic people to share a room and experience the con with, and I had the pleasure of meeting
CrashB this year, whom I THINK I have finally managed to convince finally that I am NOT a weirdo and that he should totally not be afraid of me. :P
-Like the two previous years, major shout out goes to
PrGuitarman for being such an awesome fellow, a nice guy, and hosting such wicked room parties, thus having a place I could always go to whenever I started wondering where all the cool people went off to get drunk at. :P Cool people include such classy bitches as
bauske
slyford
heartlessfang
thatoneguy297
reginho
lithium and
suck_mcjones :3
-Speaking of, that one bar we all went out to on Thursday with all the old school 25-cent arcade machines. :3 Major nostalgia blast there, even if half those machines were worn down and shitty. (Hey, there were 25 cents, what do you want for that?)
-GOOD LORD, SO MANY SPOTPASSES!!
-"That restaurant is seriously called 'The Chicago Fire Grill'? I wonder if, years from now, a restaurant in New York will open called 'The Twin Meat Towers' Explosion of Flavour.'" :O
-Whatever the FUCK I drank Friday night. I was warned it would knock me off my ass, and holy lord, did it ever. I think the hangover hit me before the drunkeness did. My stomach was actually queasy enough for the rest of the weekend that I had to be careful what I ate unless I wanted it unceremoniously coming back on me. ........ Still, that at least made sure I'd stay relatively sober the rest of the weekend, AND made later lunch choices easier. ^^;
-Wait, did we do the piano this year...? FUCK, I missed the piano this year!! D:
-The gang taking a break at Heartless' room in the Hilton and watching "Stuart Little"... and all of us bursting out at once in horrified laughter near the end of the movie when Stuart uttered "I've never ridden a cat bareback before!" :D
-The moment of truth during "Too Much Light Makes Baby Go Blind" in which I had to decide who's ass was nicer...
-Having a rather unexpectedly deep and thought provoking conversation about life, love, the universe, and everything in between with some rather drunken people in
Dreamous and
SpelunkerSal's room...
-Handcuffed by
unstablebill. Surprisingly, my pants never came off, despite this. :P
There's probably a lot more here that I'm missing, but to bottom line it, I really, honestly had a wonderful time, and it honestly means the world to me that I got to once again share a weekend of pure mirth with some of my favorite people in the universe, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that next year, my financial situation remains stable enough that we're going to be able to do it a fourth time and make a bonna-fide tradition out of this. :3

*pounce huggles and grins*
Thanks!
You're welcome.
I died when I heard that , it's IMPOSSIBLE that the makers of that movie did not know what that phrase could mean!
but yeah , good times :)
... or so they'd have us believe. xD
Your trip sounds awesome! Glad ya had a good time and could remember enough to share the details! Never saw Stuart Little ... may have to remedy that! C'mere, kitty! :3
Thanks a whole lot, man! T'was full of unexpected surprises, such as finding out that Stuart Little held up the test of time, unintentionally-sexual-sounding lines aside. x3
(I swear the 'eh' is a play on accents )
Damn, I really wish you could make it out to FC. And that I could go again. Maybe someday I'll have a job again, and one that allows enough time off and pays me enough I can afford far-away cons.
And yeah, I'd love to make it out the FC some time, as I have heard some fantastic stories about it, buuuuuuuut alas, the budget being what it is, it's probably going to be just one con for me next year, too. With any luck, both our financial situations will improve, and we'll get a chance to meet up and have fun... despite that I'm pretty sure there are government organizations trying to stop that from happening. xD
Well, we can keep hoping! ^_^
Sorry I missed ya, and hope I catcha again sometime soon! :3
But yes, drinks next time, but if you see a suspicious looking green drink in my hand, swat it out of it at once... my memory is still fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure that's what destroyed me this con. :O
soooooooooooo great to see you! <3 <3 we miss you tons :3
... *cough*
