Waiting at an airport gate, bound for Baltimare and BronyCon. I've been too long away, and this happy return is just beginning to feel real.

Looking forward to catching up and excited for oodles of friendship and magic. I understand they go together.

I'm delighted to be attending my first HorseCon this year! Hope to meet and visit with some of you there.

Baltimare shimmers like a distant dream even as I find myself blinking and saying, "Wait, it's over? It's a whole year until we do this again?"

First of all, yes, that is me in the profile pic. Thanks to Corejo for taking the original.

who else #horsecon2017

I threatened to do this and didn't manage to talk myself out of it. It's not exactly a recap, but I hope it's a decent illustration (in fourteener triplets, for some reason) of what the weekend was like for me. Thank you very much to everyone who helped make it that way. If I interacted with you at the convention at all, there's a shout-out in there somewhere. Oh, and a few right up front...

or rather, conventions in general, but this is specifically geared towards folk who, like me, are dumb enough to attend things like Bronycon.

This is aimed primarily at first-time goers, but god knows there are plenty of people who've attended cons in the past who need to learn these rules.

I'll be in attendance again this year. I look forward to meeting and spending time with as many of you as I can. A goodly bit of it at Quills & Sofas, I'm sure. I'll probably be a little less overwhelmed this time!

There is a rumor going around that someone calling herself La Mer will be dancing and singing on stage at the Friday night burlesque/variety show (21+). Last year I was in the audience and the show was a lot of fun! This year promises more of the same.
