Back from AC 2017 and finally getting to write a few lines.
The convention was great, and especially with seeing New York before that totally worth the long trip to Trumpland (especially since it did not feel that much different thankfully). New York was cool, seen the big apple, climbed the Empire State Building, all that cliché kind of stuff, super special thanks to Rez Raptor for showing me around there. Amtrak-ing up to the Pitt through the rust belt was not super exciting but also not too dull either, and interesting to do and see once. And the shorter flight to NY and extra days helped me to arrive at the con not as zombie and cold-ridden as the endless flight chain to Pittsburgh usually has me.
So, totally great convention, all you great people I met made it that way, especially yous of the "XXL" crowd. :)
I still have to do a lot of catching up to do with all the ones I met and stuff that went on while I was away from my real keyboard, and scan and upload the bit of sketches I finished, so bear with me when it takes me while to say hi.
Thanks for having been so great company and putting up with me. You folks are awesome!
edit: "XXL" refers to the height of the characters, not something else Brynn.

Was super cool to meet you again and hang out with you and the other macro lot.
Though the plan sounds not too bad actually. Flying to New York was much nicer than flying in to the Pitt with extra connect flight and then long drive. But the next time I'm taking that train from the airport! 40 dollars for cab from JFK to Brooklyn, the nerve...
