Well after a good nights sleep *and a much needed shower* Time talk about My first AC experience.

I wasnt sure what to expect truthfully when I arrived in pittsburgh. We met at the airport at roughly 11 pm on Wednsday Night and ended up remaining at the airport till flight arrived at 9 AM. I wasnt aware that The pittsburgh airport shut down completely at midnight, which sucked horribly. But thanks to Balaa and I's Great idea of a suitecase fortress, we ended up having an okay time watching Father of the Pride and Pirates of the Carribean on her Laptop. Balaa is such a sweetheart and LOADS of fun to get along with!!! and for the record FOOMP!!!! (inside joke)

Mark also found a hamburger type thing which we dubbed the 'funky sandwidge'. This thing was scary people!!! it was a meatloaf sandwidge with Jalapeno peppers (which balaa hates, hence why mark got it out of spite) Which we were terrified to try eating as we were fairly certain it would scream at us and attempt to run away. So we kept it with us to show baggy when he arrived...lol which of course caused a funky smell to follow us everywhere. Alas funky sandwidge had a very prompt burial in the garbage can upon Baggy's arrival..lmao.

and were AMAZING roomates, and so wonderfully patient with us first time AC'ers and showed us the ropes. of course Balaa got a kick out of watching me freak out at seeing people with tails at the airport. I had never seen that before so it was quite a sight. Much love to you two for putting up with mark and I, you both were absolutely wonderfull and I hope we can share a room again next year!

I chose to partake in artists Alley all three days, thinking to make about $100 or so to help pay a little bit for the expense of the trip, and ended up making alot more then that. I was also told off by , , several other artists, a commisioner and My husband that I was charging too little for my artwork and should up my prices >.< One guy refused to pay my lower price for a fursuite design and made me charge in $25 at the very least instead of the $10 I was planning on. Needless to say i was a bit shocked as I thought I was overcharging >.<

By the time Sunday arrived, my hand was swollen from drawing and coloring and inking so much..lol. So i'm taking a few days to rest my poor hand then i'll be finishing the last of my AC homework and sending them away to their owners.

The entire trip was a blast, though stressfull. We spent most of our time awake drawing. I think Bagheera and Mark got more sleep then Balaa and I as we spent most of our time sketching and coloring and such. Balaa and I were so exhausted sunday morning we were ready to sleep in our suitecases.

I wish we could have spent more time with everyone, and gone to all the sketchparties, but we were so swamped >.< We vowed that next year we will arrive a day early to prepare and hang out with everyone, and leave a day later than this year. This way it would be abit more relaxed.

Thankyou to EVERYONE who commissioned me. I love you all to pieces!!! and it was a Pleasure to meet so many wonderfull people!!!!!

Next year and I are going to try and share a dealers table together so it will be much fun!! Maggock is such a sweetheart, and a sneaky artist!!! she managed to draw a commission from mark for me right in front of me and I didnt even NOTICE!!! it was an honor and a great pleasure to meet Maggock and sit beside her in artists alley on sunday! Much love for you Maggy!!!

I got to meet so many artists that i admired from afar for years (such as Cara mitten *whome I think I made a fool of myself in front of* and XianJaguar *who I was terribly shy around to the point where Balaa was shoving me toward her to say hi*) Maggock,Balaa, Bagheera (aka Faizah here on DA) Frisket, Synnabar, Dark Natasha, Mirroreyes, Naryu, Airu, KoalaKitty, Autumn sunrise, Tivadu, Dreamer Wolf, HellcorpCEO, Zen Fox, Layra, Dreamaria, Beejay and many more!!!!

I hope to see you all again Next year!!! Much love for all and much hugs!!!! Your all so wonderfully awesome!!!
