Anybody else here go? I had fun, though I'm sort of over the anime thing (make that seriously over it). I go to hang out with my friends, people-watch, and cosplay. We did a big Avatar group this time, and got recognized by congoers and normal people alike. It was pretty sweet.

Also got to meet Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn, which was particularly awesome.


Anybody else there this weekend that I might've run into? :lol:

    I was going to go but instead I stayed home and watched football, shot guns and had sex.




    not necessarily in that order

    I didn't bring a camera, but some friends did. I'll post pics as soon as I've got 'em.

    I hadn't actually been to Otakon since I was in high school; very different experience when you're on the other side of college, having a job, etc. Made me feel old, what with all the half-naked 14-year-olds running around, but a little cosplay (i.e. attention whoring) is good for the soul. ;)

    That's awesome. You should totally post the pictures when you get them.

    I love pronouncing the name of this convention wrong around my brother and his friend who both go every year.

    It pleases me to hear their wails of anguish.
