My weekend...

litheraCon was awesome. There was a low point on Saturday but it was counterbalanced by the fact that I felt as thought I looked good. I know that people tell me I look good all the time but that was the first time I've felt attractive in .... well.... it's been awhile, so.. Even though large amounts of Saturday night sucked, all in all it was a nice balance.
Thursday - Got there late. Had a nice dinner with Alex and Steve, watched some of Fellowship before falling asleep watching The Fifth Element.
Friday - I went to pannels. And more pannels. It was like I was fulfilling Marci's pannel quota because I never freaking go to pannels. I really enjoyed the ones I went to. Talking about TV and cartoons and comics and Star Wars and Star Trek and.... It was nice. The dance, at least Andy and Chris' part of it, ruled. I was impressed and I hope they get the gig for next year. I went out and had drinks and I had a lot of drink but mysteriously did not get drunk. I got a bit tipsy when a nice man poured some very expensive rum in my glass but... it was pleasant and it didn't last too long. Found a corset that I will want.... forever. Pin stripes. Dear God. Pinstripes.
Satuday - Saturday was the day that felt like it went on forever, which might well be why the evening was so lame in part. I was just drained. It was lovely to be all corseted and in a lovely new chemise which is soooooo comfortable.... Mmmmmm. I'm going to have to come up with reasons to wear it. Too bad I can't wear it to work, really. Maybe I'll start sleeping in it.
Sunday - Lots of consumerism but for good causes and coming home. I never stay too late on Sundays, wanting enough time to relax at home the rest of the day. Hanging out and laying back.
It was a Con, however, that was sort of punctuated by the thoughts of those who were not there. I missed Marci and Holly and Max and Gavin and Michelle. There were more than that but those are the ones that come directly to mind. It was also a weekend where I was made very aware that actions have consequences. Not always bad ones but from time to time you realize that some people take the things you take seriously, very seriously as well. Sometimes it is a bit of a shock ot the system. You do something knowing there will be consequences but you don't think anything of them because they don't seem like they'd get to anyone but you.... And then there is that person who reacts like you would.
Just something to think about.
DreamCon is going to make another run at it, btw, after a decade. It's during Halloween. Which is making me think. A lot. I'm moving into an apartment which will not have the room to hold.... 30 people or so but I don't know if I could get people to go to a Con to go to my party. Though there is a large part of me which really wants to see if DreamCon can come back from the dead....
I had excellent RP yesterday on-line and Robot Chicken was hilarious.

I'm glad that the con turned out to be a net-positive experience for you. Bad cons tend to turn the entire month into a wash, I've found.
