FC Thank Yous and Other Stuffs
12 years ago
General
Before I start anything I want to give out my thank yous for all the help at FC. Normally people give them at the end of something, but I think the people who helped me out deserve to have them at the beginning.
Thank you Shadowfox for your help with setup and breakdown and everything in between. Even sick you were an amazing help and both Fox and I could not have managed as well as we did without your help. My only regret is that we did not catch that plague rat who gave you the sick so we could light them on fire.
And many similar thanks to Sirfox for also helping Fox and I lug our stuff around. The man is also a master at luggage tetris and helped me pack my stuff away so I could ship the unsold books and other items off. Also thanks to the Dewalt family for letting me stay the night, the wonderful company and conversation, and letting me post pictures of their cats in compromising positions to my twitter feed.
Many MANY thanks to all of the people who brought me snacks and water during the con (You too Xenrik!) and to Wolfwings for breakfast and help with Artshow breakdown.
Also thank you Tugrik for the absolutely stunning tour of Southern Cali and the amazing trip to the Stinking Rose (A garlic themed restaurant in SanFran). I have since learned to reproduce that garlic appetizer we had and Uriel loves it.
Now then...
I plan to resume streams on Monday, but forgive me if I am slow or out of it. I did not catch con crud but the complete lack of humidity did a number on my lungs and hauling around 100lbs of gear wore me out. So it isn't that I'm sick, I'm just recovering from going to 100% humidity to 0% for a week as well as overwork, hauling heavy loads, and lack of sleep. I was also stupid and forgot to wear my brace and my thumb is still sore from it. This is why you haven't seen much from me as typing also hurts my hand and I've basically been spoiling it to help it heal.
All in all FC was a wonderful convention. I'm still considering whether or not to go next year, but I do want to start doing more than Megaplex. So we shall see.
Still, good to be home and good to start to get back into the old groove. I missed you all!

I was intending to also send you a gift of nonalcoholic bubbly (sparkling juice) but my inside contacts couldn't find a local store that was selling it.
That particular gift, at least, is delayed, not denied. And I hope to see you at a future con.
Wish I had thought to bring you water though!
And don;t sweat the water, folks brought us plenty. Wolfwings brought us a six pack and Sturgis brought us a gallon.
And I'm glad you managed to keep properly hydrated then! That is...quite a bit of water, hahaha.
... "Instant artist: just add water.."
I'm hoping to get to Megaplex this time.
I just don't do well in crowds anymore.
I get so overwhelmed and exhausted.

Hope I can start going to your streams, though with class starting not sure how well that'll work :/
