Little mink skull, you are coming home with me to join my growing collection <3
I went to Obscura today and bought this lil guy, then talked to the owner, Mike, about the dubious legality of whale bones for half an hour which was pretty awesome. HE IS SUPER NICE, by the way. Thumbs up for Obscura.

Dixiedeadshake, I cannot express my love and gratitude to you enough for being so awfully sweet and wonderful and kind and putting up with any/all of my BS all weekend. I am so grateful I met you, because you’re wonderful and hilarious and compassionate beyond belief.

THERE YOU ARE I couldn’t remember your tumblr name, only your fanbot, Springs. :x YOU WERE ALSO SO TERRIFIC and your costume/makeup was so incredible to see in person!! I wish we’d had the chance to chill more.

Can I just say how fucking wonderful it was to meet you all? I haven’t felt so warm and welcomed and happy in such a long, long time. I was a bundle of nervous anxiety coming in because I have a categorical fear of conventions (for various reasons) but you all were so awesome I didn’t have time to…

Riley is mysteriously absent from this list. :?

LOL well uh… my feelings about Riley would seem like bragging because OMG SHE IS MY GIRLFRIEND NOW I AM JUST SO FUCKING HAPPY ABOUT THAT I CAN’T EVEN LIKE FUCKING EXPRESS IT. 8____8 And as maudlin as I was being I don’t think you guys can handle my saccharine wordbarf about how damn much I love Riley because she is amazing in all ways and I love her and I don’t know if I’ve ever really been in love before and now I just… fffff. Besides, I can’t like… I dunno it feels kind of private, too, and I just… augh. I didn’t mean it to seem like I was slighting her, it’s just that what happened between us had little to do with fandom and cons and SPG and much more to do with “I have loved you for so long and had no idea you loved me back and now that I know I can’t breathe from joy” sort of things so it would have seemed out of place and I am going on way too long so I’ll just stop here. 

OMG IS IT PUBLIC NOW SO I CAN BOUNCE AND SQUEAL AND DANCE ALL AROUND YOU? 

SURE WHY NOT <3 

Again I wasn’t sure if it was a secret or anything in the first place, I’m just like… lol I dunno I have always been reflexively private about my love life, and I guess I … didn’t feel like I was important enough to make an announcement about who I’m dating, like other people should care…? And dating seems an inadequate word, and… ugh. These feelings are too complex for tumblr! XD

I was almost to New York by the time the ugly sobbing stopped :X the taxi driver kept asking me if I was ok. Thank god for the newsstand at Newark Penn Station and the tiny box of tissues I got there. 

About the con…

Cutepoweredjellyfish, you were ADORBS and looked GORGEOUS DAHLING I wish I had hugged you more and NEXT TIME we will do THE THING and I CAN’T STOP CAPSING BECAUSE OF REASONS. <33 

Steampoweredrocket, you are amazing, talented, funny and a complete blast to be around and I am proud to now call you a friend. Take it easy because I can tell you push yourself hard, and you deserve multiple pats on the back for pulling things off like you did! I only wish I could have done more to help.

Headache, I don’t know if you’ll see this since you don’t tumblr, but you were such a fuckin’ class act all weekend. It was a joy to room with you, and even more of a joy to help you bring home SPWF’s best facial hair trophy. NEXT YEAR WE WIN IT ALL.

Theserif, you were fabulously witty and your costume(s) were so goddamned impressive that I feel ashamed to have been in your luminous company! I need to get to know you better, because you’re extraordinary.

Amuseoffirebane, I cannot BELIEVE I was lucky enough to have met you in person and you were SO helpful and SO kind and SO chill, I wish I had hugged you more, too. Passing out water to the thirsty fans in line was so fucking class I could not even stand it. You’re boss as hell. 

Flunafloon, you are another astonishingly kind and warm person! You were so fun to be around and such a well of unflappable positivity that it made me giddy. You are full of sass and class and I hope we meet again soon. Also, you play a mean round of Cards Against Humanity. 

Wibblywobblytime-ywimey, you were adorable and sweet and I had great fun hanging with you, even if we didn’t get much time to spend individually together. Never lose that sweet-natured heart of yours <3

Thefirstmccloud, I predict a bright future for you. A man of your talents will go far. :D And I know we will have the chance to chill out together in the future!

Ratqueen, your costume was beautiful and I loved every second of the few chances I got to hang out with you and Civilanarchy, because you were both surpassingly sweet to me. 

And I met so, so many others (faces and real names) that I remember having SUCH A BLAST with but can’t remember their tumblr names. If you met me and I haven’t followed you back yet for the love of GOD please tag me or reblog me because I want to keep tabs on ALL OF YOU, you lovely restorers of my faith in humanity! <3

Heeey anyone have photos of the red-pants mime from Saturday at SPWF? that was meee, I know I was stopped a lot for photos, and some on-stage would be grand as well (The parents are excited I went through with it haha)

Thank you! Just tag this username :D

Yeah if you don’t watch out I WILL put the video of you and Riley on YouTube.

Now with pictures!

steampoweredrocket:

imageDespite the setbacks and annoyances, this weekend was the best I’ve had in a very long time.

To help out, to be encouraged by multiple people, to give and get love, to be up on a stage that I feared and to figure out it wasn’t that bad, to be told that comfort will come with time (In reference to art and miming)

This weekend was this bizarre “It’s time” moment to figure out what I need to do.

It was so amazing meeting you, Sprock<3 You’re a light and I love ya, and it was a pleasure to help out how I could! <33
