I have arrived at Bronycon in the correct number of pieces.
Otherwise known as Bronycon 2016, for those of you who don't speak horse. HAHA I USED THE SAME JOKE AS I DID LAST YEAR HOW CLEVER.
Always such a fun time meeting old friends and new ones. It's a huge letdown when that alarm rings Monday morning and it's back to work. I think I attended more panels than I did last year, which is odd, since I also missed several that I might have attended but for doing other things, like touring the National Aquarium with Not_a_Hat and Axis of Rotation. Both are super-nice guys. And I got a long hug from Pav. But not long enough. My sweet Pav.
Holy shit, guys, like... I don't even...
So there I was, chillin' with my homeboy Wanderer D and he was all like "Yo ROB you wanna go to a horse con" and I was all like "Yo Dee I'd totes go to a horse con." And then we went to a horse con.
...
I'm incredibly drunk, so lets get this over with.
Uh... I had a spare bed for Bronycon. And then I got it filled. And then the fillee had a horrible, life altering happenstance bar him from coming at all.
So, uh... anybody want to split a room with me? I promise I don't bite. Unless you ask, and we're in, like, a relationship where I'd be emotionally comfortable with that sort of request which hey, ladies, dudes, others, I am single and not very picky when it comes to chromosome make-up or gender expression.
Fuuuuck I'm gonna have the time of my liiiiiiiife oh my god I'm so excited for this con you don't even know. I'm gonna meet my Ponyfinder group in real life!!? So awesome! There will be board games. And hopefully cuddles. mumblegrumblestupidsexystraightfriendhmph.
So, I am going to BronyCon this year. I've got two things Friday, and a whole day free Saturday. James and Trixie are staying home, and Bradel isn't going to be there to be my escort con boyfriend guy who hangs out with me all day, so I'll need company!
Sorry for the lateness of post. As soon as I returned home from BronyCon, I had to hit the ground running with resuming real life, getting back to my full-time job, and finishing up unpacking after moving into my new house. I've finally managed to secure 20 minutes to sit down and write this from memory since I've misplaced my schedule. So don't be surprised if things are a little out of chronological order.
Okay, that joke is getting stale. Anyway, looks like I'm finally settled after my journey to Baltimore. Tomorrow will be my full day at the con - and if I can, I would like to release a chapter tomorrow to in celebration (will have to edit over breakfast). Hopefully I'll be able to stay incognito, since it would probably be easy to guilt me into sharing secrets about the stories to anyone who asked.
An anti-Brony/anti-Trump group (Why they think Bronies and Trump are one and the same I have no idea) are planning on holding a protest outside of the Baltimore convention center on August 11th. As with previous regressive-left protest, these people may get violent. I am asking my fellow MLP fans not to engage them. If you are assaulted, leave it to the police. Please stay in groups. Don't let these bullies ruin our good time.
I've been remiss in posting one of these, haven't I? Hell, I never even posted a pre-con blog like I usually do. But things have been more hectic than usual this year, and I'm typing this up at work instead of using what little free time exists for doing pony stuff at home right now. Thoughts after the break.
drove 900 miles there and 900 miles back. it's almost like a famous pop song, except I don't have a piano-car.
usually I seem to dodge getting the Con Crud, but for the first time ever I caught it. sore throat barely an hour after leaving Baltimore. good thing I already planned to re-visit my friend on the way back, it would've been unbearable otherwise. got some medicine and rest before doing the last 600 miles.
So tomorrow is the last day of BronyCon. With that a lot of people leave early. I don't leave until Monday at 1030am on a flight however. I'll probably either go to a party or dinner after closing ceremonies if plans don't fall through but there is still a lot of hours after that before I would need to sleep.
Yep, that's right I'm going to that
but tangy were have you been for six months
I'm going to be walking around and doing stuff so you might see me wearing this ridicules backpack.
Just come say hi if you do!
Hi guys!
My fundraising efforts were a success and I've secured both transport and registration to Bronycon this year. I look forward to seeing you guys there!
