This con was a gift from God!

Aug 10, 2008 14:00

Highlights:

--Shared a room with alice_and_lain, who is just as awesome as I thought she was, and got to hang out with her for most of the con. She is, perhaps, the sweetest person I've had the pleasure of meeting. I also got to pimp out the rereleases of Tactics and FFIV to her brother, who is another enormous nerd.

--Kappei Yamaguchi: cutest thing ever. ( Read more... )

Sounds like an awesome time! Thank you for all your text updates, those were fun to get!

AND GET YOURSELF SOME REST BEFORE CONQUERING I-5 AGAIN.

HELL YEAH I HAD AN AWESOME TIME! Also, I have gifts for you, and when we meet again I'll tell you more about the Kappei Yamaguchi panel. Also also, alice_and_lain's brother recorded the Sogeking song, so hopefully he'll upload it once they get back to Ohio and I can get the link from her.

I actually got in around noon and am not planning to leave until tomorrow morning, so I'll be plenty rested by the time I head out again. I gotta do laundry and stuff anyway.

Sounds like great fun - that's awesome! Good luck on your trip up to Sacramento!

And - cool, people from Ohio! Moreover, cool people from Ohio!

Be happy in all that you do!

I did indeed have great fun!

Yup. Now the count of cool people in Ohio is up two!

Oh! I also saw a Dr. Who cosplayer! He had a laser pen and an inflatable TARDIS!

Yes, my brother is an enormous nerd and he had a good time talking Final Fantasy with you. No, I am not as awesome as you say due to quietness and shyness and a sloooooow brain. But thank you anyways! I'm very, very glad that you got back to California alright and there appears to have been no mishaps on the way back?

Be safe on your trip to Sacramento and get plenty of rest before you begin the 8-hour drive! Also, you're awesome, lovely, funny, sweet, beautiful and talented and I'm very, very glad I got to meet you. Honored, really.

See, you keep saying that and I just don't see it. But I'll just agree to disagree with you until you agree with me. Because I'm right. ;D

No mishaps, thank god. And thanks to gaining time as you travel west, I got home at about 1, so I have a nice long time to relax before my big drive.

Thank you, that means a lot to me. I'm happy and honored that you think so highly of me--and I've been wanting to meet you for a long time, and am ecstatic that I got a chance to meet you!

PS: I think I may take you up on your offer to animate that Phoenix Wright icon, if it's still open. I need to gather the images and stuff, though.

I'M SO GLAD THINGS WENT SMOOTHLY ON THE WAY OUT. Seriously.

It was good to meet! And not too awkward! And I'm glad that you and my brother got along!

The offer is open, of course. Just sent me the stills and text you want. I'll try to make it happen!

ALSO. The videos that my brother took have been uploaded! See the following links.

They turned out really well! I'm really pleased! He's going to try and send me the actual video file, so I'll pass it along to you when I get it.

Have you already found a job or are you just getting a place first?

Found a job, but it doesn't pay quite enough so I'm looking for another. Enough to get me into a place, though.
