January, in recap mode.
Overall: really damn good. Aside from that whole "I still need a job" stuff. I'll spare you the whining and give you the highlights:
Aside to select individuals:
That's all for now. I'm tired and need to go to bed.
- Party @ Starport, Jan 2nd.
mdlbear &
flower_cat's 34th anniversary. Game of Munchkin Quest. Awesome stuff. Drinks, party, chance to see people I won't see again for a while.
- Shadow Accord: First RP event of the year by a group I just joined (thank you
asahoshi for introducing me and
spazzychic for making me feel welcome). Awesome fun. Needed more of my own gear, but for short notice it was awesome stuff. Weekend after I returned from parents' for that vacation.
- Further Confusion: Following weekend. Not what I was expecting, in the respect that it was planned with 2 days' warning. Gave me a chance to retrieve my gear for SA, my fur suit, and a few other vital things I needed from Starport. First con I spent with
selkit without fighting, up until Monday where we got the interesting getting the
crapstuff into the van and I had to more or less abandon my post as gofur staffie thing without informing my boss I was leaving site in the first place. Not doing this again (leaving w/ only 2 days notice and being unprepared etc.) I can't afford to do that again, but it was fun while it lasted. - Conflikt: Weekend after FC. Bad-ass con! I <3
runnerwolf! She made an awesome con chair, talked me down from a semi-irritated rage at
mdlbear for an unexpected drum swipe, and provided fantastic conversation. (Aside to self: Must remember to email suggestions about gofur-y stuff from these past cons I've been working....) Got new AJA material (Winter DVD, Harvest Season -- Second Cutting and a piece of signed art), got copies to a good number of songs and had a hell of a lot of fun. I <3 this con. *flexes paws, rubbing gently* Damn good drumming, too. Beautiful pictures taken, and those will be up later when I'm at my computer and actually have time to post them.
- I am feeling sorry I'll miss Consonance. SA is going to be my sanity check for weekends, unless I talk to a fellow filker about rides to house filks on Saturdays that don't interfere with games. I will be spending all my time post-con beating the pavement, not home except during evenings to try looking for work. I will accept chainmail commissions, but some restrictions apply. Contact for details.
Aside to select individuals:
kendaer: I'll be talking to you via email re: the shirt you wanted for Legacies. I am learning a pattern in my copious spare time (*snerk*) and currently don't have enough aluminum to make it with. More details on that later.
runnerwolf: More details on gofur stuff will be forthcoming when you're ready for it. If I'm still living up here in a year, I'd love to help with this con.
vixyish: I will contact you in the next month or so to possibly discuss particulars of a necklace you wanted from me a few months back. Purple chain, Euro 6-1 pattern etc. Once your life calms down a bit, I mean (that whole 2 cons in 1 week thing.)
pacfenspotlight: I will PM you or comment on your LJ when I have my
alexanderfans pics posted, as you wanted shots of Alec.
That's all for now. I'm tired and need to go to bed.
