Well, now that I've gotten over(mostly)My first bout of PCD, It's a good time to talk about EF23. This was my first con, six month of planing and waiting, 13+ hours travel time from Wisconsin and one terrifyingly awesome cab ride later, I had arrived at the Estrel. When I saw the hotel I got a huge grin on my face. Going inside I saw the first live in the fur suiter and the grin turn to pure joy, I was home. After taking in the sites of the atrium, I nervously texted who I was rooming with. I have to come clean here, I didn't g to Berlin for the con, I went for her. See we had been chatting over Skype for about a year and I finally worked up the courage to ask her out just a few days before EF. Nothing made me happier than when I finally got go give my girlfriend a hug in person. I was happier at that moment then I've ever been, and we got to spend a whole week at a con together.
