Okay, so this is the first bit, where it is way too early in the morning, and so I am going to just transpose my notes I made on my cell phone throughout the convention. I don't have comments for this posting since this is probably pretty nonsensical for most people. Anywho, here goes nothing...
01- I am in the Hilton lobby. C will be here soon, but Mary has the key. Yes, key as in 1 key. Chris and H are clicking well. Me, I'm just sore, tired, etc and trying to ignore that e-mail I got.
02- Still waiting and still hurting. Sitting quietly with a lot on my mind. Wanted to talk with h about it. Oh well. S'all stupid stuff anyway. Well, I think so. Damn dorama.
03- The reg lines are long. Glad I did pre reg. Talking with person named Sarah who is really nice. Not sure where in line the others are.
04- First night hurt really bad. I kept waking up and spent most of the night trying to ignore the pain in my shoulders. Got about an hour of sleep. I hope it will be enough to get me through the first day.
05- Been avoiding ex like the plague. Got to fill H in a bit. Supposed to meet up with Jenn soon. Good thing since I am locked out of the room. Being bummed about some money stuff. If only I could move some money around to make it right.
06- Chris T thought my claws were cool! I have always worshipped his costume work with props and stuff and so he saying something is good that I made floored me. Yay!
07- Sigh. So it has been two full cons days and things really are not better. As a plus, I can't feel my back anymore and I can force any and all relationships from my head with ease now. I talked to and told off my ex and only had to get a little hurt in the process. The one line that sticks out: "well, it was stupid of me to expect you to actually try. I bet a person would go crazy after trying to date you for even a week." I am sitting on a small stairwell tucked away from everyone right now, being very solitary and very afraid of seeing someone. I don't want them to see what are currently gaping emotional wounds. I am trying to be stronger than that, to not angst around them. Mary's bf and someone I don't know are drinking in the room. I set Kuro repairs aside to come here. I don't want anyone to worry about any of this and so I will just smile tomorrow and go about things like normal.
08- OP Gathering was really good. No Jango though and that made me sad. I had to wait 3 hours for the bathroom to free up so I could shave. Room issues suck bad. Want to hang with piroko, can never seem to find the time and that sucks.
09- Glad I skipped masq. Head hurt really bad so I got some sleep. Going to be a long night a fear.
10- Bad bad dream, woke up slightly shaking. Can't remember any of it except cold darkness and wanting to cry. How odd. Panel soon, so I need to pack and move stuff like crazy.
11- Okay, so all is done, and at home. Time for some sleep after writing this all down.
