Now that Anthrocon is over and I’ve had a day to scan everything and rest it is time for that post-con report.

This was only my second trip to Anthrocon, and my second furry con too, but even after skipping a year I was greeted with the unforgettable Westin elevator line experience. But, the room itself was nice and the roommates were even better.  argentvz,  dsc85 (Tegon),  geldazane (Bronzewing), and  orenthes all proved to be excellent and very entertaining roomies. And wow, as Tegon pointed out in his report ( http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7679594/ ), Orenthes had quite the amount of food knowledge, which he demonstrated when Tegon treated us all to diner on Thursday.

Thanks to my previous experience at Anthrocon 2014 I was a bit more prepared for this one and I was able to hit just about everyone I wanted to that was there in the Dealers’ Den and the Artists’ Alley on Friday. The one exception was  darknatasha, who I was very lucky to catch on Saturday. Unfortunately, playing the line game in the Artists’ Alley did make me late for the Macro Meetup, but I did still make it in time to see the amazing VR version of  cantstopgrowing’s dragon growth animation that  jamesfoxes had made. Afterwards I enjoyed a rather entertaining meal with a few of the macros from the meetup. Finally, I ended the night with a couple rounds of Cards Against Humanity with my roommates, which was a rather nice way to cap of the day.

Saturday was spent doing my rounds of Den and Alley again, collecting my first ever badges and getting more work from artists that had not been there the previous day. Then it was off to the fursuit parade that was seemingly without end. I personally think Anthrocon just likes really long lines of things, no matter what they may be. Later on that night I would attend the macro/micro party where I loved seeing the enthusiastic greeting between  skonk and TripleL ( https://www.weasyl.com/~triplel ).

Sunday would be spent running around collecting what art I had commissioned and just hanging out with various people. Even managed to commission  tyrnn, who has been my white whale as far as commissions go. My roommates had to leave earlier than I did, but we were able to enjoy a nice farewell in the hotel restaurant.  crux was kind enough to invite me out to a final meal. Then I spent most of my remaining time in the Zoo in the Westin. It was there I learned that not only does  nommz have a signature fro, but he also has a signature laugh that may as well be the “call of the Nommz” that lets anyone he knows home in on him even in a large crowded and somewhat noisy room.


I probably did stay later than I should have since I was driving myself back home, but that was nothing that a nice sized bottle of ginger ale, a couple candy bars, and a bag of chips couldn’t help with. Now I have quite a few more pictures to add to my next wave, which is getting fairly large and I probably should post right away, but I won’t because I’m too lazy to do it at the moment. Oh well, maybe after I get a few more things that are in the work.

And let me thank my roommates for having me. They were all a real pleasure. It was also so wonderful getting to see so many people again and getting to meet a lot of you for the first time. I had a blast and will definitely be attending AC again.
