So yeah, I got through Anime Weekend Atlanta 15 okay and I'm catching up on a couple things. Scored some cool swag (including a really awesome book by Helen McCarthy I'll have to write about verrrrrrrry soon) and hung with some good people I don't get to see nearly enough.

We know you were extremely busy and understand the difficulties you faced during the convention. All of the AWA's staff work was greatly appreciated and the convention was ...awesome! It was just one of those conventions that makes you fall in love with anime allover again.
The panel you were in was great! I really enjoyed it and it really educated me on anime beginnings, I wish conventions had more things like this, especially for the young ones who think Naruto is the beginning of anime. You doing Rick James was just priceless. :)

It was good to see you two again, especially on Sunday. Your company was exactly what I needed at one point. Hope you guys can come back next year. :)

Sure stuff went wonky over the weekend. It happens. Life goes on.
But the high-tech plans that went nowhere DO remind me a lesson I had to learn back at AWA 1: when people promise to bring videos or discs or other stuff to the con to "help" you out and you count on it and believe it, just know that they're lying. They just are.
The moral is don't depend on anyone you can't see in the mirror, when you are all alone. Make the funny jokes here if you are age 8. But the fact is, everybody else is setting you up for failure one way or another.
Not your fault. But be like Reagan: Trust but verify. And don't do a lot of trusting.
Life goes on. AWA 16 is already too close.

yeah. Trust yourself. Trust what you have in your hands. Hope for the best but ALWAYS assume the worst.
I get called paranoid and other words for that, but you know, I'm rarely surprised now when things boob up.
