Anthrocon Dos, Don'ts, whys, wherefores and whatsits, etc.

-To find me, look in secluded corners for the twitching mass of nerves. Well, not really, but yeah, I'm a nervous wreck in large gatherings. I might not see you at first, so don't think I just walked past you on purpose. My brain is probably elsewhere, especially if I have my earbuds in.

-I'm a little weird about physical contact. Surprise glomps and the like will probably result in my elbow lodged somewhere in your person that you'd rather it not be. I once smacked a friend's glasses clear across the room because he tickled me. Handshakes, taps on the arm, and such are all fine, hugs...if I know you, or otherwise feel inclined to do so.

-I'll have my ever-present grey backpack, and depending on mood might be wearing my lion tail, or another if I buy one. I stand about 5'6", wear glasses, am IrishPale (ie damn near translucent), have medium brown hair freshly cut into an above the shoulders....not-quite-bob-thing, and am on the chunkier side of pudgy (this last year and a half's assorted stress and annoyances were not kind to my get in better shape attempts, bleh. Though I do plan to resume healthier eating habits and exercise routines after the Con). At least one of my badges will be the one pictured in my icon, by the_gneech, yay :). I also might be wearing my light blue collar with crystal-ish sparkles. Cos I like it.

-This year, time and weather permitting, I might be wandering outside the hotel and convention areas, doing the photography thing. I'm not often in cities, and Pittsburgh has a nice photogenic feel to it, for me anyway.
