Brb, Anthrocon! (+MEME ACTION) :D
9 years ago
I thought it would be best to get this journal out of the way before I sleep, so. Here I go!
As many of you may or may not know, I'll be attending Anthrocon this year! In fact, I'm going to be the official Dealer Assistant to my good friend
Spartadog in the Dealer's Den, and you can find me during the con behind his table! In fact, I'm stealing a meme from him in his journal here ( http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7643390/ ) to post. ONWARDS.
THE MEME:
Where are you staying?
Courtyard by Marriott
What day are you getting there?
Wednesday, it seems!
Who will you be rooming with?
Spartadog and other lovely artists I know through him!
Who will you hang out with during the convention?
Lots of folks! I'll likely be glued to Sparta and the artist contingent while Dealer's Den is open, though who knows where else I'll be otherwise. I've got multiple clients-turned-friend who'll be there to hang with too!
What is the best way to find you?
You can find me behind Sparta's table as his dealing assistant, table M18, so his journal says!
Are there any panels you might be attending?
I have no idea. :D
Are you hosting any panels?
NOPE.
What do you look like?
I'm a near-sighted, diminutive androgynous stringbean in loud Hawaiian shirts and odd pajama pants, most of the time!
Will you be suiting?
Nope, I shall not be!
What is your gender?
Androgynous, but you can call me whatever. She/her/etc is usually the default, but nothing is technically wrong as long as it's respectful! (Seriously, don't panic if you call me Sir, it's totally fine.)
How old are you?
27!
How tall are you?
5'4'' on a humid day if you count the hair.
Are you mated/in a relationship?
I'm not particularly interested in looking for one, please and thank you!
Can I talk to you?
Certainly! I'm here to socialize as well as learn how to be a dealer!
Can I touch you?
Polite/neutral touching is generally fine! Just nowhere you wouldn't touch a complete stranger unpermitted.
Can I buy you drinks?
I'll go with Sparta's line of thinking here as a tentative yes. Closed container is preferred/typically fine. If it's an open beverage/glass I'd definitely like to have it pass from the bartender's hand directly to mine.
Can I hug or snuggle with you?
If you ask permission, I typically don't mind hugs at all! No snuggling from the general public though, please.
Are you nice?
I think so! It's always hard to judge oneself with these questions, but I'd like to pretend I'm approachable.
How long are you going?
Will be there from Wednesday to Monday <-- a la Sparta's answer. I'm with him!
Will you be going to parties?
Apparently there may be some art parties in the works, but I'm following my dealer lead there. I tend to be a geeky introvert, so 'typical' room parties are likely not my cup of tea.
Will you be performing?
I will not!
If I see you, how should I get your attention?
You can call me by name (I answer to Han or Hanmonster as readily as Kaly), give me a tap, a wave, etc, the usual! I'll be wearing some loud badges for easy recognition anyway.
Can I take your picture?
With permission, most certainly! I tend to be a comically unphotogenic gremlin, but I'll do it!
What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
LEARN TO BE A DEALER, HELL YEAH.
Also, GEEK ABOUT LOTS OF AMAZING OTHER ARTISTS THERE.
Also, meet people. All the people. See clients and friends!
Gonna be GREAT. See some of you on the other side! And wish me luck on my flight tomorrow! Cheers, guys!
As a sidenote, I'll be flying back home again on the 6th of July, and after a couple of days I'll return to my remaining commission queue to finish up. I'm just not going to be working on much of anything from it in the meanwhile because my laptop would explode trying to open the gargantuan master files I use on the workhorse computer-- which isn't going.
Be well, everyone! And see you soon!
