Dragon Con
This year was an absolute blast. I failed to make it to almost anything I had planned to due to insanely long lines for everything. I only did one of my planned costumes. Despite all that it was still one of the best years I have had in a long time.
This year I saw more people dressed up and participating in the actual fandom than I have in a long time. That was great to see. Even though there were an insane number of people it didn't feel nearly as crowded and crushed as it has the last few years. I think I only once felt a twinge of desire for a cattle prod to get people moving.
There may have been a reason for that though.
That was what I brought for our room. There were only two people staying there.
My one costume I did actually wear turned out great and looking at the pictures even I am impressed with how fantastic it looked.
Still looking for a good picture of emiko and I both in our costumes. Here is one but I'm hoping for a better one.

I'm really happy with how the outfits came out.
Got to meet a lot of really fun new people this year. Lots of good conversations with people. It really felt a lot like the old Dragon Con I remember from years ago.
Jess and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary there in a way that only makes sense in our weird little world. Room parties, sex, fabulous dinner and running around drunk at a hotel with other people.
Looking forward to next year already. So much so that we already have our room booked.
Hope everyone else had as much fun over labor day weekend as I did.
