the_gneech...because that's pretty much what a hangover actually is. :P
I bring this up because despite my many and various attempts at getting fluids into my system over the past four days, last night I finally reached the Dehydration Headache stage, and have been camped there. Owie. I hoped that Drinking All the Water and getting some sleep would fix it, but no such luck. So this morning I broke down and bought the last packet of Advil from the hotel shop, on top of getting All the Rest of the Water with my breakfast. Here's hoping.
Yesterday was a good con day. :) Arrived early for the Artist Alley check-in, so sat and chatted a bit with Brian Reynolds, then caught a few extra Z's until the room opened. The Alley's population was rather depleted, a symptom of Sunday I suppose, but the spot next to me was open all day, so I took advantage of this to spread out enough to have my pens up on the table.
[As I type this: a couple of self-satisfied non-convention business bros going on about all the "animal weirdos walking around last night" at the other end of the Starbucks bench, whipping each other into a frenzy and talking smack like the furries were trying to pick a fight just by existing. -.- Geeze Louise, shut your dumb faces and go away.]
Anyway! I sold a handful of books and a couple of sketches, but the room closed early for Sunday. Seifer and I headed over to closing ceremonies, which was the usual verklempt-a-thon. MFF raised over $85,000 for their charity this year, something like $12,000 of it right there in the closing ceremonies as Alkali passed his big ol' hat around the room. They also announced that Rama Lion was taking over as the con chair next year, and that Kyell Gold was going to be one of next year's GOH's, so that's cool. :)
The rest of the night was basically Seif, Inkblitz and I wandering from food to Dead Dog Dance to people-watching spot, chatting about fandom history, fursuiting trends, and whatever else came to mind, with a guest appearance by Zia, who added Mage: The Ascension to the mix. (Apparently Zia's a fan of the Physiognomizer from Technomancer's Toybox, which pleased me. I was always proud of that one.)
[Update: Business bros are still flapping their gums, but they moved out of my immediate earshot at least. Oy.]
Flight home is sometime around noon, so once I finish my breakfast it's pretty much pack and go. I've got notes and ideas on what to do for AnthroCon to improve sales and make the table go smoother, and I'm looking forward to it. But in the meantime I'm looking forward to getting home tolaurie_robey, the kitties, and my own bed. XD
