AC Report, or State of the Joltik!

Well, another Anthrocon has come and gone. And this year was SPECTACULAR! *CHURR!* Yes, Amp, I'll get to that part!
All started on wednesday, when my Burr arrived at my place, before the trek to Pittsburgh, now, I'm lucky and live in Ohio, so it's about 2.5 hours the way we drove.
Roomed with Draco, Denyen, Luther, my burr, and Arcius, at the Renaissance. A Beautiful hotel, and the service there never disappoints. We got in mid afternoon on thursday, registered, and then sat around the zoo for a while with Malcolm the burr and his mate, wolfric and Draco, playing Resistance. Burr, you is a spy, no matter what you say!!!
Friday, we were up early, attended the Therian focus group, various other panels, got to finally attend the macro meetup, where I won a badge from Geemo! YAAAAY! Hung out with people, had some great food, great time, hosted my are you a werewolf panel, and then, sleep!
Saturday was my LONGEST DAY! *CHURR!* Yes AMP, I'm getting to it. Impatient joltiks. Woke up early again, to attend another focus group for therian's, and then some down time before the parade! and waht a parade t was, first, they allowed Burr in to be my handler, which I was SOOO appreciative of, as otherwise, I wouldn't have really even tried this year. But with him, I was in safe hands, and could navigate the streets of pittsburgh safely! That's right, they took the parade OUTSIDE! One lady was complimenting my costume at some point and then she noticed amp and was screaming about him! OH HE HAS A JOLTIK! *happy churring!* Made his day. The city does truly love us!
It was exhausting, but well worth it. I then had my panel on Therianthropy at 6 that night, and woooooow were burr and I shocked at the turnout. I was gonna count myself lucky if I got like 20 people in there, but I had about 75. Talk technically ended at 7, but as the room wasn't being used right away, I stayed in there for another 45 minutes. What's even better is alot of the researcher's came to the talk as well, showing a ton of support for me. I was SO tired after it, emotionally drained, physically drained and in pain, but so happy about how it went. Met so many good people! I actually headed back to the room about midnight, which is very odd for me on a con night, but I was so tired.
Sunday, I slept in, headed to the con, and met up with Tibor and the rest of my fellow predator's for a furshoot! It was on the roof, again in blazing sunlight, but was a blast anyways! I took it easy on Sunday, went to the debriefing session, and then hung around the zoo, had dinner, met up with more friends, and then played a very fun game called JS Joust! Man that was fun. Got back to the room at about 12, fully and utterly wiped, but extremely happy. Talked a while more with draco, Arcius and my burr, and then...Monday comes, and back to my real life.
Ac, you were a blast this year, and I can't wait till next year! See you then!

I was very glad to have joined in on that Werewolf game with you and Fier! I thought I stank a bit though. ><;
