ONE BILLION ANTHROCON JOURNALS
16 years ago
Hey hey! Got back from AC alive and well, thanks in no small part to
popabear, our last-minute ride!
Arrived on Thursday in the afternoon; met up with
gravewalker who brought me and
tracer to the room we'd all be staying in... and we immediately passed right out.
I honest to gods don't remember the order in which most things happened (I really need ADD meds for next year- now I know), but here are some bits n' bobs in awesome point form.
- Artists' Alley for all three days; signups were much less painful than last year, and the actual setup time they gave us was really great. Kudos to AC staff for continually improving things!
- Ended up as 'Patchoulp' on my receipts for one of the days, lol.
- LOST MIKEYCAT and freaked right out, made a sign for my table, and nearly killed people with hugs when they finally found him a few hours later (THANK YOU SO MUCH, BUSHYCAT!). Turns out I dropped him on the sixth floor of the Westin in my rush to make it to signups... worst plushie mom ever.
- I bought the best squid plushie ever and named him Mister Blorp. They had an awesome octopus too but they were sold out by the time I got there.
- SO MANY AWESOME PEOPLE. Seriously. I can't even icon you all because it would just go on forever. You know who you all are; it was so amazing to see old friends again and to make new ones. I just wish we had more time to hang out!
- Yay, commissions! Despite my stressing out about it I managed to cover my con expenses just fine with a good bit to spare for bills and crap back home. Thank you SO much to everyone who supported me! I've got lots of homework now, but I'm in a good arting mood!
- Actually managed to do some trades this year! So happy that me and
ivybeth FINALLY managed to do the trade we've been trying to do for the past three ACs... and
vera and I drew each other very very similar pictures without talking about ideas first!
ritts drew awesome sexy bikini Weeko. fapfapfapfap. I LOVE TRADES, FUCK.
- Seeing Max, Gideon, Gnaw, and Mr. Person again was so awesome, but I was so bummed out that I couldn't go hang with them in Philly like we did last year. They're all so chill and great to be around. Ah well, next year!
- The sushi restaurant didn't serve tempura. Wtf.
All in all I had a blast- not quite as good as last year for me, but still well worth all the stressing out previous to the con. XD Next year, I start getting ready in March.
Haha, you all won't recognize me next year because I'll be BALD! :D
I lurve the lot of you. Thanks so much for making my AC a good one. <3
P.S. - If you ordered a commission from me, keep an eye on http://sarahsilver.livejournal.com/ for progress! Feel free to comment here, note me, or email me if you have any questions or concerns. :)
