Arisia 2009

[vibrantabyss]

Much, MUCH better than last year.   That post will stay eyes-only for several reasons, may-it-fade-from-my-memory.

+ Got to see panels, plural, for the first time
- 5 of my top 8 choices occurred during meeting times
+ Saw very little of the game room
+ Got to play great games with great folk when I did stick my nose in
- Had very broken sleep one night, which scragged the next day as a con day
+ Walk the Labyrinth was awesome,  providing much useful centering, and some time for reflection
- Didn't get to walk it twice - between my lack of sleep issues and
+ Lots of great cuddles and kisses from a number of beautiful women (and some cuddles from great guys too)
- Didn't get to kiss everyone  I wanted to
+ Had a GoH admiring my board game, without him knowing it was mine
+ Summitted Mt. Arisia 4 times, plus numerous trips from lobby to my room on 14
+ Swam and enjoyed the sauna
- Found out how out of shape my swimming muscles are.  Ten laps was more than enough
+ Had a great time at a number of parties
- Couldn't get in to several since my replacement ID hadn't arrived
+ It was waiting in my mailbox when I got home
+ Came home feeling neither sick nor run down

Thank you to all who helped make this a wonderful weekend for me!
