Anthrocon 2018, or Why Good People Do Bad Things
7 years ago
After missing a couple of ACs, I'll back this year to screw things up once again.
What is it about this retired steel town that attracts so many pseudo animals
to sweat their biscuits off in mid summer?
Is it the inexpensive parking? The drippy cheese steaks? The joy that comes from
poking all those solid mid-west values directly in the eye?
Dunno. I'll probably never understand why we do what we do, and that's
a good thing, I'm guessing.
The skinny on a skinny mutt:
I'll be flying out of OC early Thursday on SouthWoorst, traveling
in the company of my guard bear.
Guard bears are good. We always get extra snacks.
We arrive sometime on Thursday evening, and then get picked up by another bear.
What is it with these bears? I think they don't trust my sense of direction.
Bears are smart...
I'm staying in the Westin, possibly on a couch in the lobby if the elevator lines are too long.
I'm actually rooming with a normal human; an old friend of mine wanted to see
what a furry convention was all about and has family in that area so off we go.
Poor bastard. He'll never be the same.
The meat of the con, so to speak, will be visiting friends, old and new.
I have no con schedule, and no plans other than to see you all.
This will probably be my last convention, so excuse me if I have too much fun.
I depart on Monday morning, and I already can't stand the thought of saying goodbye.
If you see me, please please say hello and give me a hug.
Once again, I'm only making this trek to see my extended furry family, (even
you great uncle Leo.) It means the world to me and I can't thank you enough
for all the years of kindness.
I'll see you in the Burgh!

Have a great time.
And now I'm thirsty.
I am a bit sad this will be your last convention. I always hoped to run into you, one day.
I wish you the best. Have a ton of fun!
I hope you have all the fun. You can have my share, too.
I'll be sure to save a little fun and send it your way.
I would tell you not to do anything that I would not but I know that doing what I would not do is exactly what you are planing on doing.
This being your last con I'm sorry that we had never meet in person. I would have liked to walk the boardwalk in suit with you.
I want to see you EVERY day of the con.
"Give me your room number" *snort*
I’m going to miss you. :’C *hugs*
I will see you in PITTSBURGH, however, where I hope we can explore fine local cuisine together, such as sandwiches with french fries in them!
Prepare for incoming giraffe hugs!
You should try it, although the waiter does expect a larger tip.
Thank you in advance and I'll see you there!
