Short version: it sucked. HARD.

As usual, my memory is atrocious so I can't completely go over it in order.

We got there Thursday afternoon and I had forgotten a pretty important part of registration. So I couldn't register until Friday morning and I had to miss the dance. That was the first super bad thing that happened. Anyone who knows me knows I fricken love dancing so it was quite a bummer. It was also early afternoon when we got there and our roomies weren't there yet so we had to wander around a bit till they got there and we could unload our stuff.

FRIDAY

- got his card info stolen early in the con so we immediately went from around $600 to none and we were forced to borrow money from a friend to even get home. Shout out to , we wouldn't be here without him <3

-getting to see again in her beautiful new suit was an absolute delight! I was so proud of her when I saw she got in the dance comp <3

-attended the carolina furs meetup and got a sweet badge to show for it! I was stunned by just how many of us there are

-although I planned on going to floor wars, I skipped it in favor of food, oops

-got to go to the dance on Friday thank goodness and I wiggled my booty off in suit

SATURDAY

-had to wake up early-ish for the fursuit photo and stuff. I ended up in the very very back but whatever

-I was able to get a group photo with my suiters so that was nice. It was a good bit smaller than the one at MFF with only 4 of us there but I'm still happy it happened. It always makes me proud to see others wearing my creations

-totally did not give a shit about the fursuit mingle so I just skipped it

-me and the bf went to dairy queen because i literally havent been there in at least 10 years or so

-DANCE COMP. My god it was no doubt the best I've ever seen. It was so good I didn't even know who was gonna place. Once again Prism stunned me with her rockin moves

-Nother dance, twas fun

SUNDAY

-slept pretty late cause not much was going on

-fennec meet! Now that I have a fennec suit, figured I'd attend and it was super fun! We played an awesome drinking game but unfortunately I didn't get drunk

-we were out of alcohol at this point and dancing was a lot less fun. I had a really bad cramp in my side that made things harder and there was a certain someone who didn't get the hint that hey, I kinda need space to dance :/

MONDAY

-I didn't get any sleep sunday night because of multiple reasons. This is when my con crashed and burned. I will not go into detail because I personally feel it should stay between those involved but if you were involved and want to know my side of the story instead of assuming I randomly became a no good piece of shit after me being nice literally the entire con, message me

-we spent a good chunk of the day wandering around the hotel because we didn't have a room and no friends would let us in. The bf wanted so badly to sleep but I kept him up the whole time because I was desperate for someone to be there for me

-we left around noon and got back home around 10pm or so and I went straight to bed because I'm super sick

General stuff

-I brought 3 suits: Ryu, Alex, and Ruki, but I was in Ruki the entire con except for 2 short chunks. I didn't wear Ryu at all oops

-it was good to see a lot of old friends that I hadn't seen since MFF as well as a ton of locals

-I was drunk kinda more than I expected but still not much. I think generally I was sober most of the day but then drunk after 7pm-ish with the exception of sunday. Basically I was drunk for the dances but not much else, so for those who think I was drunk the entire con, no. As usual.

-I got fucking sick around saturday-sunday. Coughing a bunch. And my allergies randomly acted up one morning making me sneeze my ass off. Not to mention the random cramp that showed up on sunday.

-our room was constantly absurdly hot and humid. The windows would be dripping wet often and it was hard to tell what clothes were clean because everything was wet. We found several cockroaches in our room. Basically: step up your game, Marriott.

-ohmygod everyone thought I was Ruki. There were 3 types of people: people who though I was Ruki, people who thought the suit looked 'familiar' after the modifications, and people who knew what was going on. It was soooo fucking funny

-so yeah, con started off shitty, and the ending has left me constantly crying ever since. I'm absurdly glad this con is over and we're thinking about skipping FWA next year. This is the 3rd year in a row that this con has sucked

thanks for reading, and for the people who blamed me for what happened, fuck you. glad to know you guys were my good friends till the end.

now back to work because i have so much shit to do
