TCon 23 report

Some cool things about Technicon 23:

Giving rattrap his combined holiday present for the next several years.
Playing the WoW board game with jsciv, meiran, and candidevoltaire; then buying a copy.
A copy of The Heroic Trio from kittykatya.
Opening the wrong door and accidentally joining this year's Vile Skit.
Being practically the only character in vileone's LARP that was exactly what he said he was: no more, no less.
Friday dinner seated between Dwight, raininva, and Christy.
Friday night panels that went Most Excellently. (Some details soon in a filtered post, heh heh.)
A Vile Script that forced me to wrestle with rainbowsaber. (Oh, shucks.)
Helping southernsinger perform "The Dragon & The Lady" for Holly Lisle.
Late Saturday dinner and great conversation with meiran.
Thanks to trenn, chown -R us:us yourbase.
Frequent backrubby morale- and energy-boosts from shrewlet.
Two boxes full of new reading material from the Auction.
Cool artwork from kittenchan and ranchonmars.
It's my 20th Technicon.

Some less-cool things about Technicon 23:

It's my 20th Technicon.
Not enough time to be in Whose Con Is It?
Long drives from and to Norfolk.
Not enough quality time with many friends.
My lousy Simon Cowell imitation.
A body that gave out too early on Saturday night. (For once, stomach issues rather than exhaustion.)
Our air mattress developing a hole.
Not enough time for after-con dinner in Blacksburg. (But a good one with Bert & Meche in Salem.)

I'd call TCon 23 a success, for my part. Well done, nius, and thanks for the good weekend!

I really enjoyed seeing you and Rain again. It's a shame that we didn't get to spend much time together, but hopefully, that will be taken care of in the near future.

... and it's good to see that someone is listening to the cds again ... of course, you would be ... lol

Glad you had fun. I did, as well! For me game time is also social time, so getting to hang out with you and Rain during the WoW game was a treat.

I was glad I got to hang out with you guys : ) I was at the point of getting all "hmph" about how things weren't like they used to be. Now I'm looking forward to Rising Star again : )
