How late are folks gonna be up, anyway? Because me and Nadia might not make it in until 7 or so tonight, depending on the traffic.

Thank you everyone. It was a blast and a pleasure to meet you all.

Had loads of fun, though maybe next year Ladydarke will be able to participate instead of just attending. :D

Got back to Houston safely. I'd say "home" but I'm actually at my grandmothers. Mom+company are still painting their garage. I should get home by sometime tomorrow.

...first thing I did when I saw a bed was sit down on it and wake up three hours later. No real memory of laying down. Just went sort of "See bed. Sit. Sleep".

I had fun and I will be there next year. And hey look! CW on forums!

It rocked hard core!

It was really weird meeting everybody in person though. Half of me expected everyone to look like their drawing styles (Mixed Myth was the only one who did).

I can't wait for the next one. :D

I'm so, so glad I got to come this year! And I'll shoot someone if they try to keep Nadia from attending the whole time! (and maybe i'll get lucky, and merfilly can come too)

I loved meeting everyone, and here's hoping I can remember names when next year rolls around!

Had a blast. Don't know if I'll be able to come again next year (curse you, lack of income! *Shakes fist*) but I'd love to do so. ^_^

We've made it home, and we're not dead (even though U.S. Airways did try to leave us stranded in Pennsylvania)! :D :D

We've got quotes and pictures... all to be uploaded later... time for sleeping. :P :P

I am home safe and sound and will have many things to say once I have had time to recover. For now, just know it's been beyond awesome to see all of you guys once again.

Seriously, had loads of fun. I love you all. Have some warm fuzzies. <3 <3 <3 <3

I wanted to say it was SOOOO great to finally meet everyone, and I had tons of fun, and did so many cool awesome things, and had so many cool awesome conversations, and it was just an overall great and wonderful experience!!!

I really really hope I can make it next year, but we shall see. If need be, we shall use the "picture" (If you were there, you know of what I speak in my hushed and secretive tones) to get me out.

I, too, have arrived home safely with no problems.

Although, halfway home I had to switch from the shared van I took home from the airport to a towncar, presumably because I lived out of the way from the other occupants of said van.

I was severly disappointed. :roll:

Fun fun fun.

Need to get around to scanning Kat's sketchbook sometime.

Probably tomorrow.
