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:
  • Party @ Starport, Jan 2nd. [livejournal.com profile] mdlbear & [livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] asahoshi for introducing me and [livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] selkit without fighting, up until Monday where we got the interesting getting the crap stuff 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 [livejournal.com profile] runnerwolf! She made an awesome con chair, talked me down from a semi-irritated rage at [livejournal.com profile] 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:
  • [livejournal.com profile] 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.


  • [livejournal.com profile] 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.


  • [livejournal.com profile] 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.)


  • [livejournal.com profile] pacfenspotlight: I will PM you or comment on your LJ when I have my [livejournal.com profile] alexanderfans pics posted, as you wanted shots of Alec.


That's all for now. I'm tired and need to go to bed.

Sorry about the drum; I'd had the impression that we'd be passing it back and forth as needed; then things went wonky after we switched rooms. Next time we'll bring our own.
