I'm back from Geek Kon, and thus ends my 2013 convention year. That's 5 conventions - 4 as staff, 1 as an exhibitor. I've never done that many conventions in the same year before! It was pretty exhausting, and I let a lot of personal stuff slip through the cracks because of them. But now it's time to put my nose to the grindstone and get back to the real world.

Back to Geek Kon though - I had a blast. There's such a different feel to smaller conventions, and I love it! Big cons like Acen are just so much more stressful and hectic. I had a great time working as a security operative, and it gave me a really excellent opportunity to see all the awesome cosplay. I couldn't take as many pictures as I would have liked, but it was still fantastic. I also had a great time cosplaying Dean Winchester, even while on shift. Kudos to those of you who didn't let the black vest get in the way of recognizing my cosplay. Keen eyes you've got there. ;P

I got a few high fives from folks today for my camp half blood shirt (I'd run out of Dean appropriate cloths). Woo fellow Percy Jackson fans! Also, major kudos to my fellow Supernatural cosplayers Clarkedoesart and sunshineblair. It's been a lot of fun seeing you at so many cons this year Clarke. You're an amazing artist, and I hope to see you at just as many next year! And it was really great to meet you Sunshineblair. You made an amazing Cas/Misha, and your photobombing of dispatchrabbi's Crowley pics was most excellent. He'll get around to posting those soon I promise. :D

It was also fantastic getting to know all of you security folks! I've loved hanging out with you and becoming familiar with security as a department. Kudos for dragging me out of my Guest/VIP Relations comfort zone. I look forward to working with each and every one of you next year.
